Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

After the Easter strawberry seed incident, Boss Yin no longer dared to speak harshly, and his attitude towards friends posting barrages also made a 180-degree turn.

after all……

No one wants to see the Stardew Valley farm that they have worked so hard to manage take a detour due to such an unforeseen accident.

As players gradually learn about Stardew Valley, various genres based on gameplay have also emerged.

The brewing flow, the ore blasting flow, the sheep flow, the gem sweetberry flow, the honeycomb flow, the jam flow and other schools, it can be said that a hundred flowers are blooming and a hundred schools of thought are contending.

Among them, the most popular genre among players is undoubtedly the brewing stream that uses keg brewing as its main means of making money.

This genre has the advantages of being easy to form, high in profits, and efficient. Being proficient in the brewing flow is also regarded as one of the signs of getting out of the novice village in the circle of Stardew Valley players.

The brewing school itself has several major factions, including hop brewing, wheat brewing, carambola brewing, ancient fruit brewing, honey brewing and many other factions.

The fishing guy’s daily income is over 10,000 yuan, which is nothing compared to the well-established brewing industry. It can be said to be the best choice for newbies to get started.

But there is a flaw in the brewing flow. The operation process takes a long time, especially if it is a crop with a short brewing process, such as honey brewing.

So much so that in the later stage of the brewing process, when players have hundreds of kegs in their hands, they basically get out of bed and start brewing. No matter men, women, old or young, they are not allowed to rest for a moment.

The entire Stardew Valley seems to be echoing the common background music of Douyin blogger Dongbei Yujie——

[The wind blows the wheat waves and the fragrance of rice flowers, and the black soil nourishes our parents! 】

[Every winter there is heavy snowfall, and the hot bed chatters about homely things...]

Against the backdrop of background music, brewers are working hard in Stardew Valley, which seems to be particularly appropriate for the occasion.

Douyu live broadcast platform, game area.

Boss Yin watched the brewing streaming video on Wuwo's ​​homepage and found out that he could earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands a day, and his blood immediately surged into his heart.

"This stream is good. I have just entered the first summer, and I basically meet the conditions for the wine-making stream. Let's start it!"

But who would have thought that on the 3rd of summer, Boss Yin got up from the bed and found out that there was an earthquake last night and a dumbfounding letter came to the mailbox.

[Boss Yin. 】

[This is a bit embarrassing. I lost my lucky purple shorts. I'm only telling you because I trust you. 】

[If you can help me find it, please return it properly, and I will give you a generous reward. Sorry to trouble you. 】

[——Mayor Lewis]

Good guy!

Purple shorts?

This task...

Don't say it, don't say it!

"There's something about this mission..."

Boss Yin looked at the screen and asked, "Is Lewis playing exciting enough? He even lost his shorts?"

In the live broadcast room, friends laughed.

As players gradually gained a deeper understanding of Stardew Valley, the player's spontaneous name was changed to Cuckold Valley.

Players carefully explored the plot and background of the Stardew Valley villagers and learned many incredible secrets. Purple shorts are one of the most talked about secrets among players.

"Boss, you can use your shorts to order the mayor!"

"These purple shorts will not be returned after they are found, so players can wear them."

"Purple shorts can also super evolve and turn into gold-rimmed purple shorts!"

"Boss, guess what, where can I find these purple shorts?"

After these days of pioneering Stardew Valley, Boss Yin's understanding of Stardew Valley has deepened day by day. He is no longer the novice at the beginning, so he naturally knows about Cuckold Valley.

But where are the purple shorts now?

As a player who was exposed to this mission for the first time, how could he know?

Fortunately, the water friends didn't hide it. Perhaps because this plot was too much to watch, the water friends also wanted to watch it again as soon as possible and gave tips one after another.

"Marnie's bedroom! Boss, go quickly!"

"Do you have two-star favorability? If not, you can use a stool to get stuck in!"

"That's right, it's the big cattle farmer in Stardew Valley, Marnie. Unfortunately, when I didn't know who could get married at the beginning, I really wanted to conquer Marnie."

"Ah? Isn't Robin the first person everyone likes?"

"Isn't it delicious Abigail?"

"You're upstairs, you're so shameless!"

In the live broadcast room, water friends couldn't help but discuss everything from purple shorts to Cuckold Valley, from Marnie, Robin, Abigail to who is the best marriage partner in Stardew Valley.

Boss Yin, on the premise of an open-book exam, went directly to Marnie's bedroom and found the mayor's purple shorts.

[You found your lucky purple shorts, you better give them back to Lewis]

Boss Yin looked at the purple boxer shorts with spots in his hand, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

He finally understood why Mayor Lewis had given him the task of finding purple shorts.

After all, when I first arrived, I was not a local resident, but a foreigner. If I didn’t leave this kind of thing to myself, who would I leave it to?

"Purple shorts? You're lucky, right?"

Mr. Yin laughed and said, "Then I'll accept it!"

Boss Yin has already had an idea of ​​the follow-up gameplay of Purple Shorts through the introduction of water friends.

Purple shorts? It's still impossible to pay it back.

It's all good luck, doesn't it look good on me?

Besides, I can still rely on him to survive.

Boss Yin pocketed the purple shorts and continued the work of perfecting the brewing flow keg.

Boss Yin worked hard all afternoon to broadcast live, and the game time also moved from early summer to mid-summer.

On this day, a letter arrived in the mailbox of Jinmen Farm.

[Dear Boss Yin. 】

[Tomorrow we will gather on the beach to celebrate the annual Pelican Town Banquet. 】

[The climax of this feast is sharing the potluck meal, remember to contribute the delicious food! 】

[The governor will also come to the scene in person, please pay attention to your words and deeds. 】

[Please come to the beach to attend the banquet between 9 am and 2 pm. 】

[——Mayor Lewis]

Wu Yin's eyes lit up, come to live?

The big event is happening today!

Remember to contribute the delicious food?

No problem, that must be no problem!

I want the villagers of Pelican Town to understand the value of the word "whole life".

He hurriedly collected the mature beer and had a busy day.

The next morning.

Boss Yin wore purple shorts and came to the beach to participate in the event.

The beach that used to be desolate and uninhabited has changed drastically today.

The open space on the beach is covered with green straw mats. There is a big pot in the center that is cooking Bai Le soup. The tables on both sides are filled with sumptuous food and drinks. There are flowers arranged around it. The entire beach is full of festive atmosphere.

The villagers also gathered around the beach, chatting in small groups. Pierre did not forget his old profession and still set up a stall at the event.

Boss Yin saw Lewis chatting with the governor, who was bloated and potbellied but had an amiable smile. He was wearing a purple top hat and a purple suit.

The color combination of the governor's clothes and Lewis's purple shorts match inexplicably.

It seems that the rumor that purple brings luck is true!

Boss Yin laughed and began to look forward to what would happen next.

In the live broadcast room, the water friends were also very excited, and they were all excited about it——

"Lewis: Do you dare to bully me?"

"Boss Yin? You don't respect martial ethics. It's useless for me to treat you as a confidant. I didn't expect you to be a despicable person!"

"Liu (Day) Yi (sound) Si (fa): I am not a human being? Am I a human being?"

Boss Yin came up to the governor and said hello.

Lewis introduced the identity of Boss Yin from the side. Upon seeing this, the governor smiled and said: "What a wonderful time... Stardew Valley is always so pleasing to the eye."

After chatting for a while, Mr. Yin took advantage of the rare opportunity for the villagers to gather together and started a conversation one by one in order to increase his favorability.

The marriage partner he is pursuing is Penny, so Boss Yin behaves more actively in front of her.

After working hard for a while, Boss Yin greeted all the villagers in a sophisticated manner and came to chat with Marnie in front of the big pot where Baile soup was being cooked.

Marnie smiled and said: "If you have brought ingredients for making soup, then climb up the ladder over there and throw the soup ingredients into the pot."

"Hey, this is what I've been waiting for!"

Without saying a word, Boss Yin walked around in a circle to the ladder, climbed up the wooden ladder three steps at a time, took out the purple shorts from his backpack, and threw them into the soup pot.

Then Boss Yin quickly came to Lewis and the governor.

Lewis smiled: "Should we go to the banquet? The governor looks a little hungry?"

[Yes, let's get started. 】

【not yet. 】

Boss Yin had prepared everything a long time ago, so of course he chose to start immediately.

Lewis invited the governor to the soup pot, summoned all the villagers to his side, and shouted:

"Guys, it's the annual potluck ceremony again. I believe you have all put good ingredients into the pot. We must make the governor's trip worthwhile!"

When Boss Yin saw this, he slapped the table and laughed: "I promise, this will definitely be the governor's most unforgettable potluck ceremony!"

In the live broadcast room, many water friends have only heard of the unique way of wearing purple shorts, but have never seen it with their own eyes. They are also very curious and want to see the follow-up content.

"Purple shorts, I like to eat them, but your mother said you will ascend to heaven soon..."

"Hey! Upstairs, you're cheating!"

"Leader, please drink this cup to the full!"

"Codename Pangolin: Drinking soup is a blessing in disguise! Drink it, why the hell don't you drink it?"

"Hahahaha, you guys are too much..."

At the potluck ceremony, Lewis asked: "Um...Governor? Would you be honored to have a taste of this soup?"

The governor nodded: "Of course, I have been looking forward to this moment for a long time."

After finishing his words, the governor came to the soup pot with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth, carefully tasting this year's Baile Soup.

It's just that the governor felt that this year's Baile Soup had a strange taste. He thought about it carefully for a long time and said to everyone: "Well... it's a bit pungent, but actually, it tastes very good."

"Wait a minute!" the governor suddenly said: "There is something in my bowl, what is it?"

The governor rummaged through it carefully and was startled to find traces of purple shorts.

Lewis was right next to the governor. He could clearly see the traces of purple shorts and exclaimed:

"What?"

Marnie also looked panicked when she saw this.

The governor took a deep breath when he saw this, his whole face turned green, and he whispered:

"I've never been so insulted in my life! Phew... my tongue is swollen... I think I'm going to faint."

Lewis quickly arranged for someone to send the governor to rest, then looked around at everyone present, with a serious tone, and said angrily:

"Everyone involved in this appalling act is truly condemned for using my very personal items for such a sick purpose!"

"And ruining a perfectly good pot of soup, unforgivable! This community has never humiliated me so much...it's so disgusting! Go home, the holidays are over!"

[I guess this "little prank" was not very successful...]

【It’s time to go home...】

Time jumps to ten o'clock that evening.

This event is not the first time players have participated in the Stardew Valley holiday event.

At first, everyone just wanted to play a prank, and many players on the Internet have uploaded such videos.

This kind of behavior is understandable...

But today is different from the past. After these days of living in Stardew Valley, players have already developed feelings for Stardew Valley.

The daily trajectories, words and deeds of these pixel villagers, and even the help they provide to players, make them no longer just simple villagers in the eyes of players.

Otherwise, there would be no players who would be divided into many factions and quarreling endlessly because of the issue of choosing a marriage partner. This would also show the charm of Stardew Valley.

Wu Yin: "..."

Water friend: "..."

Looking at the Jinmen Farm in the dark night, the water friends in the live broadcast room had mixed emotions.

For the first time, everyone felt that such a prank was not very fun.

Even looking at Lewis's anger and grievance, the player felt a little unhappy.

Boss Yin suggested: "How about we go back and participate in the event seriously?"

This proposal has the support and recognition of all water friends.

After rewinding, attend the festival with a new attitude.

Boss Yin delivers the ingredients at the bottom of the box in Baile Soup.

The event began, and after Lewis finished speaking, he invited the governor to drink soup.

The governor took out a spoon and took a sip of soup into his mouth, tasted it carefully, jumped up excitedly and said:

"Oh! I've never had such delicious soup!"

After hearing this, Lewis also picked up a spoon, tasted Baile soup, and said with a smile:

"You're right...it's really delicious!"

Adhering to the concept that having fun alone is not as good as having fun together, Lewis called all the villagers in Pelican Town and said: "Guys, your performance is great! So...does anyone else want to try it?"

As soon as these words came out, the villagers came to the Baile soup pot one after another and began to taste the Baile soup made collectively by the villagers of Pelican Town.

[Mr. Governor is right...this soup should only be found in heaven! 】

【It’s time to go home...】

Looking at this scene, it is obvious that this plot is ordinary and far less dramatic than the special plot of purple shorts.

But seeing that Lewis was not angry, and seeing that this pot had gathered the food contributed by all the villagers in Pelican Town, the Baile soup made by it became the object of praise from the villagers.

Boss Yin was actually happier, far happier than doing a prank.

He sighed inexplicably: "Stardew Valley, Stardew Valley, if only this place really existed..."
