Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 221: Damn, I Lost My Peashooter!!!

Ayin burst out laughing the mont he saw this na.

The chat barrage was full of question marks—

‘This na is so simple and straightforward, why can’t I understand it?’

‘Feels like a fantasy battle between Calabash Brothers and Godzilla.’

‘The boss is totally stunned.’

‘Is this so kind of trolling ga?’

‘How on earth do these two words relate to each other?’

‘Weird stuff, Little Yellow has done sothing weird again…’

Ayin himself was truly baffled, even a bit incredulous:

“Is this… another abstract ga?”

Although Golden Wind hadn’t exactly never released abstract gas before.

But this ti, they were participating in the special event marking ten years of the Yiyou Mini Ga Festival.

As their flagship ga, it represented the pinnacle of dostic mini-ga production, being pushed overseas by Yiyou.

To release an abstract ga at such a crucial mont?

Isn’t that a bit… too abstract?

Curious, Ayin opened the store page, and the ga cover and promotional poster imdiately struck him.

“Holy crap! It really is Plants vs. Zombies?”

The promotional poster clearly showed plants on the left and zombies on the right, glaring at each other in a ridiculously tense standoff.

One had to admit, this simple and blunt na really fit perfectly.

Then he looked at the ga tags!

Tower defense, strategy, puzzle, cultivation, casual.

Age rating (E): 6

“Six years old? Could I actually see Golden Wind release an E-rated ga in my lifeti?”

Seeing the age rating, Ayin was genuinely shocked.

Keep in mind!

Among all gas produced by Golden Wind, the lowest rating ever was E , suitable for players aged 12 and above, and there were only two such gas.

One was Overcooked, and the other was To the Moon.

The forr was due to a large amount of hazardous wrong operations, and the latter because of romantic elents—neither could be rated E.

In theory, Cat Mario could have qualified for an E rating.

But that ga’s budget was so low it didn’t even et the criteria for the rating system.

So Golden Wind’s gas always had a minimum rating of E , for ages 12 and up.

As for the maximum… just think of Left 4 Dead’s severed limbs, Escape’s finger-cutting and gender reassignnt.

There’s even a saying in the gaming circle: R-rated 18 is only the top limit for ga ratings, not for Golden Wind.

But now!

Golden Wind, known for bold, thrilling, and novel gas aid at 15 or 18 audiences, actually launched a kid-friendly ga rated 6 .

‘What kind of baby ga is this?’

The chat barrage was equally stunned:

‘Is this an educational enlightennt ga?’

‘Oh no, I’ve beco a baby!’

‘My kid is going to beco a Golden Wind player? Old Thief’s evil intentions exposed! (dog head emoji)’

‘Huh? Zombies? How can a ga with zombies be rated 6 ?’

‘Do you really think Little Yellow’s official comndation was just for show?’

‘No way… Isn’t this cartoon style enough for a baby ga? Look at the zombies inside, they look way better than the bears in Boonie Bears!’

‘Epic, Little Yellow is going to dominate all age groups.’

‘The king of ratings, reaching for the moon above (18 ), and fishing for turtles below (6 ).’

‘Hard to imagine such a cartoonish kid’s ga is designed by the sa person as Escape (lol).’

‘Feels like the Walrider is playing musical chairs.’

‘Hahaha what a bizarre taphor…’

‘…’

The audience was filled with wonder.

Even Shen Miaomiao was a little surprised.

The audience didn’t know the ga’s content, but she did!

“Hey, did you use official influence?”

Shen Miaomiao leaned back slightly, hugged her legs, and gently kicked Gu Sheng’s arm:

“I get that cartoon zombies don’t count as restricted content, but in our ga zombies often lose their heads and arms. How did you get it rated E? Did you bribe soone?”

“No, the rating system is different from what you imagine,”

Gu Sheng shook his head in denial:

“Just because a ga contains certain restricted elents doesn’t an it must be rated 15 or 18 , unless the restricted content is too explicit.”

“Ga review considers not only the presence of restricted elents but also their proportion within the ga.”

“For example, our previous Overcooked was rated E because the entire ga revolves around ‘dangerous operations’…”

At this point, both Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao burst out laughing.

That ga was really dangerous, and they often accidentally set the kitchen on fire.

Waving his hand, Gu Sheng continued:

“To the Moon is the sa. Its core is emotion—love.”

“That’s why they got rated E .”

“It’s not that a ga with decapitations and limb loss is necessarily restricted. The core gaplay of PVZ (Plants vs. Zombies) isn’t about losing limbs, plus our cartoon art style is right there.”

“Getting a 6 rating is well deserved.”

After explaining, Gu Sheng shrugged and raised an eyebrow at Shen Miaomiao:

“Besides, do you think I care about ratings?”

That hit the nail on the head.

Shen Miaomiao was speechless.

True enough.

After all, this twisted mastermind could design a despicable boss like the Groom. Would you expect him to care about ga ratings?

…

“Let’s try this baby ga… cinema, who’s spamming ‘matches your height’? Ban that jerk, room admin!”

Joking and chatting,

Ayin completed the paynt and finished downloading the ga.

He clicked to enter the ga, and on the pitch-black screen, dark golden text slowly appeared—

[Golden Wind]

[Steel Chain Fingers Studio]

[Director: Gu Sheng]

Beep beep beep! Beep beep beep!

In the dark screen, an alarm rang.

As the screen brightened, a furry hand stretched out from under the covers and slapped the alarm clock on the bedside table.

Daylight was bright and sunny, a sunflower smiled rhythmically, swaying in its pot.

The furry hand’s owner got up, took off the monotonous white shirt from the wardrobe, and placed an iron pot on his head from the storage shelf.

The chubby figure in slippers went downstairs, opened the fridge, and saw inside the freezer, besides a wrap, several blue pea seedlings blinked big round eyes and had round mouths.

A peaceful scene.

But at that mont!

Outside on the country path, a staggering figure ca into view!

Long arms, skinny legs, green skin, ragged clothes, staggering steps, mumbling “uh uh” sounds.

A big head with a few pathetic hairs on top, one big eye and one small eye—one eye on guard, the other on watch—exuding an aura of ‘wisdom’.

A zombie!

And not just one!

One after another, in rows and groups.

The smart zombies advanced toward the garden, with so even picking up ice cream cones on the roadside and placing them on their heads!

At the sa ti!

The rustling sound of footsteps was heard.

On the green lawn, the chubby white-shirted figure carefully held a green pea seedling and placed it on the grass!

Within sight!

The swaying sunflower, the determined pea shooter, the angry dwarf pumpkin, the goofy walnut wall, and the drooling chomper…

All kinds of strange plants filled the garden, the battle was on!

Peas shot out, striking zombies in all directions, the angry dwarf pumpkin leapt high to squash zombies, the chomper bit down on zombies like a buffet!

As a pea shot powerfully,

Snap!

The ga logo appeared on screen!

Plants vs. Zombies

[Press any key to start]

Yes.

In this Plants vs. Zombies, Gu Sheng drew from the trailer CG of PVZ2 in his past life and transplanted it into the ga as the opening CG.

Although PVZ2’s reputation was not great, the CG quality was excellent!

Instantly, the live stream was filled with excited voices—

‘Ohhhhh—so cute!’

‘Heartthrob alert! This little pea seedling is adorable!’

‘Is that little potato not fun? So goofy and cute.’

‘Walnut: You’re the little potato! Your whole family’s little potatoes!’

‘Hahaha I thought that was a little potato too, but it’s a walnut.’

‘Does no one like the sunflower? Its sway is so srizing.’

‘Is it normal that I like zombies, especially the one with the ice cream cone hat? Ugly but cute.’

‘That chomper… I have a bold idea…’

‘People shouldn’t… at least not…’

‘People can! At least try!’

‘Unbelievable…’

‘…’

Without a doubt!

The exquisite CG imdiately captivated many players and viewers!

As a kid-friendly ga, PVZ’s art style sits perfectly in the all-ages range—neither too childish nor artificially cute.

Lighthearted, funny, and full of charm!

“This is pretty interesting…”

Though known as the ‘Top Tough Guy in Tianjin’, Ayin couldn’t help but chuckle at these fun plants.

Clicking the mouse to enter the ga!

A mysterious yet mischievous background tune played—

Dun dun deng deng deng, deng deng, deng deng…

Like kids dressed in sheets on Halloween, shouting “Trick or Treat!”

Low and mysterious, yet with a mischievous charm!

As Ayin clicked start, he nad his house.

Flash—

A crooked note appeared on screen, with a line of crooked writing:

[Hello: Our chickens will fully contribute ice to your house—Sincerely, the zombies]

“Three characters wrong in one line,”

Ayin laughed:

“But they’re pretty polite.”

Just then!

Rustle—

In the brownish garden, a roll of turf spread out.

[Click the seed card!]

As the prompt appeared, Ayin clicked the card slot at the top of the screen.

“Oh, this is called Peashooter,”

Ayin dragged the green pea seedling out and planted it at the front edge of the lawn:

“Block the path first. I guess zombies will co from the dirt road, so our peashooter can shoot both sides.”

Regular tower defense players know this tower placent is classic.

Put the basic tower near the spawn point to clear weak monsters, giving room for advanced defense towers behind and enough ti to react.

Standard operation.

Ayin’s placent was perfectly normal, and the audience agreed.

Then, two small suns fell from the sky.

After collecting sunlight, Ayin planted another peashooter side by side.

Preparing, Ayin chuckled:

“This really is a baby ga, huh? This tutorial is probably the most detailed one in any Golden Wind ga.”

“A full teaching level. Even YiYi (Ayin’s daughter) could clear it…”

After saying that!

Ayin stood up from the cara: “Bathroom break, brothers. This tutorial is easy enough to do with eyes closed.”

Knock knock!

As Ayin left the screen, a drumbeat sounded!

[Uh… uh…]

Zombie sounds ca.

The audience eagerly awaited to see the peashooter’s power.

But the next mont.

Crunch— crunch— crunch— crunch—

With crispy biting sounds, the audience watched helplessly as a big-headed zombie slowly erged from the right side, walked two steps, and reached the peashooter.

Then it opened its big mouth, waved its hands, and started feasting!

Instantly!

The chat was full of ‘Huh?’

‘What???’

‘No way???’

‘It’s intense, zombies are eating plants now.’

‘Huh? How did zombies co out of this path? Isn’t this where we build towers? How can zombies get on?’

‘Bug?’

‘Don’t be ridiculous, your ga even has special animations and sounds for bugs.’

‘So this ga… damn… zombies can eat plants?’

‘Oh—damn! I get it! The green lawn is the path! Zombies only walk straight, players need to plant on this path to kill them before they reach the house!’

‘Damn, you call this kid-friendly? This is kinda hard, right?’

‘So plants have to be planted further back!’

‘Uh oh! Trouble coming!’

‘Hahaha can’t wait to see the boss’s expression when he cos back.’

‘It’s over, it’s almost at the house door!’

‘Hahaha disaster incoming…’

‘…’

In an instant, the chat was a frenzy!

Everyone watched the first peashooter get eaten by a backup zombie after killing one zombie.

The second peashooter barely took down the second zombie, but didn’t last long.

With the “Final Wave” prompt, three more zombies appeared, crunching sounds resounded, and the second peashooter t the sa fate.

So, two zombies shalessly stepped onto the green lawn, slowly advancing toward the house.

At that mont!

Footsteps ca, and Ayin returned with a relaxed stride:

“How’s that? Aren’t my two peashooters powerful…”

Mid-sentence!

The livestream went completely silent!

On screen, Ayin’s smile froze.

His expression shifted from relaxed to stunned, then from stunned to confused, and finally from confused to panic!

Frozen for a full two seconds!

A strange shout with a Tianjin accent echoed through the stream!

“Hey!!!”

“Damn it, I lost my peashooter!!!”
