Top game producer

"Because one day, I will become one of them."

The spaceship is about to launch, and an exciting and ambitious string music plays. In the command center, all personnel are in position, and the computer screens light up in sequence like dominoes, showing a green light of passage. The large screen on the wall also loads the picture of the spaceship ready to launch.

The camera switches to an overhead view of the spaceship, and as the nozzles of the boosters emit a dazzling light, the screen brightens and shakes, as if the entire earth is shaking violently. When the light slightly diminishes, the distance between the spaceship and the ground gradually increases.

The top of the spaceship rises slowly and steadily from being level with the launchpad. The camera zooms out, and the crowd on the bridge witnesses the spaceship's tail spraying dazzling light, merging with the sunset and red clouds, like a sharp sword piercing the sky, flying towards the unknown end.

Inside the narrow spaceship cabin, the red glow of the sky can be seen through the porthole. Outside the spaceship, the clouds and mist part like Moses dividing the sea, and seagulls and white doves flap their wings and fly past the spaceship.

Lin Fan couldn't help but think, "Johnny is quite romantic."

The picture blurs and returns to the overhead view. In the orange-yellow light, the things on the ground become smaller and smaller, like cities neatly pieced together like building blocks, large areas of farmland with scattered patterns, lush and dense forests, and beautiful winding rivers...

In the mission center, people begin to celebrate the successful launch; on the bridge, only the golden sunset and sparkling sea can be seen, as well as a faint white plume of smoke. People are still facing the direction of the spaceship launch, seemingly still immersed in the spectacular scene of the launch.

Dr. Watts' pixelated figure quietly takes a half-step with his right foot, trying to put his arm around Dr. Rosalene's shoulder, but she slaps his wandering hand away. So, he nonchalantly takes a half-step with his left foot and returns to his original position.♦♦  ☞♦

Lin Fan couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Liva looked out the porthole for some reason.

The surging and soaring string music is replaced by the cold and clear piano sound containing the memory of loneliness. The melody of the BGM gradually changes from the ambition of sowing seeds, full of expectations for the future, to the satisfaction and peace of mind when the fruits are harvested, and the sadness when seeing the leaves fall and turn yellow.

On the ground within sight outside the porthole, a lighthouse shines with a soft and warm cross-star light, seemingly saying a final farewell in this way. From the lighthouse on the back hill of Johnny's house, you can see the spaceship dragging its tail flame into the clouds and disappearing.

With the close-up of the lighthouse as a transition, scenes of faded memories play like a revolving lantern: in front of the lighthouse, Johnny and Liva hold their wedding witnessed by the priest and relatives and friends; in the tavern, they talk about their future life full of expectations with friends; on the grass, a group of people enthusiastically build the house from scratch...

The piano sound gradually weakens, and the weak and regular sound of the electrocardiograph comes. In front of the long chair next to the lighthouse, Johnny waits for Liva to come forward and sit down with him, looking at the sea and the stars.

"Beep."

The spaceship has entered space, and all the boosters have been detached.

The universe is dark and deep, and the starlight is small and weak. Behind the spaceship is a large blue sphere with a bright glow.

"Beep."

The distance between the spaceship and the sea-blue sphere is getting farther and farther.

"Beep."

Everything is calm inside the spaceship cabin, and it is dark outside the porthole.

"Beep."

The memory world flashes red, but retreats again in an instant.

The spaceship cabin blurs for a moment, and Johnny seems to feel something, looking around uneasily.

"Beep."

Johnny keeps looking out the porthole, and Liva turns her head and reaches out her hand.

Lin Fan's expression is absorbed and solemn, and he unconsciously pursed his lips.

"Beep."

Johnny turns his head and looks at Liva.

"Beep."

After a long gaze, Johnny reaches out his hand and holds Liva's hand.

Lin Fan's lips are pursed even tighter, and a strong emotion has been brewing and fermenting, and is about to be uncontrollable.

"Beep."

The two look at each other for a moment, then turn their heads and look at the dark porthole in front of them.

The hands held together resemble the bottom of a heart shape.

Outside the porthole, the bright full moon gradually appears.

The screen goes dark for a long time.

Lin Fan closes his eyes and can't help but choke up. Large tears gush out of his eyes.

"Beep————"

The names of the producers slowly appear on the black screen. Lin Fan sobs and tears off a piece of paper, repeatedly wiping away the constantly湧出的 tears.

Just when he thought the game was over, the piano music of "To the Moon" sounded again.

"What if you forget, or get lost?"

"Then we'll always meet on the moon, you silly!"

The gentle and beautiful piano sound flows like water, ripples appear on the calm lake, and the stars try to transmit the tiny light to thousands of light-years away. The lighthouse, eroded by time, guards the ships sailing far away from the sea.

Paper rabbits containing heartfelt wishes, and a black platypus doll, ugly but warm, seem to have the faint fragrance of violets blowing in the wind.

In a world where the boundaries between black and white are blurred, the childhood Liva sits on a cross-section of a round log, and the childhood Johnny appears opposite her. Johnny hands the platypus to Liva, sits next to her, and together they quietly watch the eternally sparkling starry sky...

Lin Fan covers his face with a tissue and wipes it hard. Tears run down his cheeks in a string: "It seems like it's been a long time since I cried like this... Johnny must have been very happy when he left holding Liva's hand."

The production credits roll, and the memorable scenes from the game reappear.

In front of the lighthouse in the sunset, Dr. Watts quietly watches the stone tablet - there used to be only one stone tablet here, but now a new stone tablet has been added next to it.

Two bear children ran over, cheering as they ran, "He's here!"

Dr. Rosalene followed them here, and the two bear children ran away in a puff of smoke.

She looks at the scenery here: "I still can't believe that Johnny just bequeathed the house to the nanny."

Lin Fan thought, "The old man has no family members. Giving it to the nanny who took care of him at the end of his life ensures that the house, which carries precious memories, will not be abandoned, and that vibrant life will continue here, and that it can accompany Liva's cherished lighthouse - that's pretty good."

Dr. Watts still loves to complain: "This is not suitable as a cemetery. If there is a landslide, they can swim in the sea with the fish."

Dr. Rosalene's phone rang, and she answered the phone: "Hello, yes... we'll be there soon."

Dr. Watts asked, "New patient?"

"New patient."

"Then let's go."

With their backs to the sunset, the sea, and the lighthouse, the two walked in the direction they came from.

Lin Fan sighed contentedly: "It feels like the story is over, and a new chapter is about to begin. It's so satisfying."

Just when he thought everything was over, the screen suddenly flashed a blood-red light, which receded like a tide.

Lin Fan was stunned: "What's going on?"

The screen is completely dark, and the piano music of "To the Moon" sounds, like the closing music of a movie - the game is truly over.
