Special Note

Due to insufficient funds, I had to sell this old version. The income generated will be used to maintain the development of [Airtight City 2.0]. Whether the game is fun is the only criterion for supporting it.
1.0 The process is short, even after customs clearance, there is still time to refund.
Thank you for your attention and tolerance. I will continue to work hard to let everyone witness my progress.

The reason for selling this version

Hello everyone, I am an independent game producer.

Airtight City 1.0-Bowing to Reality-is my maiden game work.

This game landed on the Steam platform for a free trial one and a half years ago.

Won a relatively good game evaluation.

But more importantly, the various problems exposed in the game gave me a deep understanding of the serious shortcomings of my own ability.

I did not choose to continue developing this novice-level work.

Instead, it made a series of very bold or irrational decisions.

I archived most of the content of this project, and only extracted its main program architecture.

And started a new round of development process.

Project Airtight City 2.0

In the next 15 months,

[1] I refactored more than 50% of the core code in the game, so that the internal stability and scalability of the game have been significantly improved.

[2] Learned modeling and material production from scratch, and rebuilt all scene models in the game. Try to get rid of the cheap splicing texture of independent 3D games.

[3] Refactored the game's plot setting and planning copywriting, allowing the game to obtain more original content and a more Chinese science fiction plot.

[4] 100% refactoring and upgrading have been carried out for the operation feel / shooting feel / light and shadow effect / interface design.

Today's Airtight City 2.0 project has completed 90% of the main function production, and part of the scene construction.

Laying out the game plot will be the main work direction for the next one to two years.

Through more than a year of project reconstruction and systematic learning.

At this time, both the game effect and my ability itself have been qualitatively improved.

However, no matter how full the ideal is, it must be reflected in the reality. My development funds have been exhausted.

It's hard to maintain my development career.

I have tried to land the game on a domestic crowdfunding platform,

But because of the subject matter, they were directly rejected.

Therefore, I can only make the following 2 new decisions.

[1] Log my story and project together on the [爱发电] platform, hoping to get a little funding from like-minded players.

[2] The archived version 1.0 game has been re-calibrated and optimized, and logged on to the Steam platform in exchange for some meager income.

Hope this can help me through the difficulties.

Some other things to say

I still have to solemnly say sorry to many players who have played/followed my game.

First of all, I’m sorry: this is a rough work, which can be praised by so many people.

I can only say that my friends really tolerate me, a newcomer in the indie game industry.

You remove so many blemishes, even if you only need to turn to one of my shining spots.

I will be appreciated. I am really flattered.

But in my heart, I deeply know that this Virgo game is not a qualified work.

Whether it is the overall texture of the game or the originality of the content, it is a non-flowing existence.

Dead space, Resident Evil, I have played the longest TPS game.

They have produced a deep imprint on my game thinking that is hard to erase.

This leads to a serious problem, that is, following the development of the subconscious mind and inspiration,

My games will always look a lot like other people's works.

This is a thorn in my heart, the existence that I have to care about.

I want to get rid of this kind of nightmare influence more than anyone else.

And because of this, it was the main source of motivation that made me decide to completely refactor the game and make the 2.0 version.

My second apology is: I have been silent for a year and a half.

Since the demo version went online, I have received a lot of private messages and emails.

You encourage me, give me game suggestions, and help me with translation.

You are looking forward to the official launch of my game.

At the beginning, I will always reply to your messages happily outside of work.

And then, I was silent.

The reason for the silence was the discovery of that thorn.

I watched all the videos about my game on Bilibili and the Youtube.

I read the barrages and comments that each of you has posted.

This allows me to see the core problem of the game,

It also made me aware of the weaknesses of my own development capabilities.

I can't ignore these problems and continue the development of version 1.0.

I want to refactor my work.

Over time, this thought became stronger and stronger, and it eventually made me awake at night.

Therefore, under such internal ideological struggle, I was terrified.

I don't know how to deal with your doubts and expectations.

In the end, I chose a person to curl up into the shadows again.

Started a new round of solitary development journey.

I'm really sorry friends, please wait for me to survive this difficult period,

At that time, I will reply to the signals that I have chosen to miss on.

We speak different languages and live in different countries.
But in the gaming world, we are the same people.
thank you all.
