What we're up to now | チラズアートがいま何をしてるか
Added 2020-01-13 01:57:46 +0000 UTCWe've been busy all year of 2019. To a point where it felt like we're drowning everyday from the thought of needing to get something out.
This year, we wanted to start off our journey a little more planned out. We've never really had the will to look for inspirations outside (I didn't play almost a single game last year except our own games) for a while now thinking we have it all in us.
So I've been binge watching shows on youtube and netflix, and binge playing/watching numerous horror games. Surprisingly, I feel like games just give me the most inspiration. I find it very hard to get good ideas out of horror shows/stories because they all end up being too short or ideas that are really hard to put into a playable form. Playing horror games though, allowed me to understand how to make horror games in a more realistic way like understanding the pacing, the timing of scares, the range of horror ideas that are viable as a game, etc, etc.
With that said, the announcement of the next title might take a little longer than expected.
To all patrons above Tier 5, we will start setting up the schedule board properly once we have a more concrete set of schedule. My brother's been cooking up some environments already and I think they look pretty sick,(not the ones on the schedule board already) just ideas aren't so fleshed out so all there is is the environment for now!
2019年というのは僕らにとって死ぬほど忙しかった年だと思います。何か世の中に出さなきゃ！って必死になってやってました。なのでじっくりインスピレーションを探すなんて余裕は正直なかったです。
今年は、もう少し手札を増やして計画的にゲーム制作という旅に挑もうと思います。映画を見たり他ゲームを遊んだりは去年は時間が惜しいと思い、ほとんどしてきませんでした。多分僕はチラズアート以外のゲームを一作も遊んでないと思います。そのくらい必死でした。なので雪女が出てからはひたすらyoutubeやnetflixでホラー映画やホラー 短編集などを見たり、Steamのありとあらゆるホラゲを遊んだりしています。
やはり製作側にとってはゲームを遊ぶのが一番ですね。特にインディーズものには驚かされます。耳袋や怪談話みたいな短編集から良いアイデアを引き出すのはゲーム制作においては意外と難しいです。活かせるとしたらちょっとしたシーケンスくらいですかね。それと比べてゲームは遊ぶことで、ペーシング、驚かせのタイミングや、ホラーをゲーム化できる範囲などをそのまま直に学べるので非常に参考になっております。
次のゲームのアナウンスにはもう少し時間がかかるのですが何卒宜しくお願いします。
Tier 5以上の方々には、より具体的な計画ができ次第、スケジュールボードをセットアップいたしますのでもうしばらくお待ちください！

Thanks!
2020-01-13 06:34:35 +0000 UTCYep! This is my process as well for making horror games. Lately, my schedule has been, work until 8 pm, and then have some dinner and play some horror games with a notebook beside me before going to bed (I mean, this is how I found out about your games!). I always get some nice ideas or inspiration for what I am working on mainly by looking deeply into missed opportunities in the games I'm playing. I can, however, get some inspiration out of movies and series as well, but games are definitely more inspiring. Looking forward to what comes next!
