About

Note: This game is an experimental narrative game, with all guidance integrated into the story. Some interactions and operations require speculation based on the plot content. Please purchase with caution.
When one feels out of step with the world because of certain differences, how does one discover one’s own strengths and worth? When communication with others proves impossible, how does one perceive and accept the other by attuning to their frequency?
Jules, a Arctic tern capable of emitting sounds between 10 and 1,000 hertz, is unable to attract the female of his choice because his vocal frequency is lower than that of the other males in his flock. Jules always considered himself an outsider within the flock; though well looked after, he could never quite fit in. Thanks to his exceptionally keen sense of sound, Jules discovered an artists’ village by the coast and befriended the artist Santi and other creatives. Through repeated attempts and adjustments, they eventually established a unique mode of communication and became close companions. When the Arctic terns migrated to Antarctica, Jules, having left his companions behind, faced new adventures and experiences.
Set against hand-drawn natural landscapes, experience the distinctive scenery of the coast, the artists’ village, the painter’s studio, and the waters of the Arctic and Antarctic. Immerse yourself in the daily life and communication patterns of the Arctic terns, emit your own frequency, and interact with creatures of different frequencies.

作为一款实验性质的互动游戏,《鲸鸟》非常具有艺术性,画面都是油画风格的。不过油画不是特别精细的那种,简陋中透露出一些可爱。有些角色的颜料是半透明的,没有涂满。有一种灵动感。比如说没有整张脸涂满的小松鼠,依旧非常具有艺术性。还有那个画家在动起来的时候,你可以透过他的身体看到手臂的移动。 海边公路的那个画面本身就很有正经油画的美感了,演出效果更是让人感到不明觉厉。在葡萄牙跟丢鸟群后,燕鸥头朝下倒在了公路上,昏迷了过去。世界陷入了一片黑暗。然后在节奏像是心跳一样的聚焦运镜之后,鸟群出现在了我的身边。在我嘴边放了食物。我吃下之后旋转180度,世界再次明亮了。和大家一起飞向形状像天鹅一样的南极洲。 游戏全程无文字,只能听到环境音和鸟儿之间的鸣叫。舒适的海浪声音总是很让人放松。燕鸥好像还有很多种不同的叫声。鸟儿扇动翅膀的声音很大。 画家的笑声和lalabubu的试图和燕鸥沟通的声音很喜感。还有一个画面画家原地消失了,但是你依然可以听到他魔性的声音。 游戏会有按键的引导,但也不是特别的完善。空格键Space起飞、WASD控制方向、F键用鸟嘴去叼东西、Shfit键加速、Ctrl键下落、按住鼠标向上或者向下控制燕鸥鸣叫出不同的音高。飞行和行走是完全不一样的状态。行走的速度更慢,飞行是无法停滞的。应该很好区分出来。 有时候的动画演出会全自动控制角色,还挺方便的。每次飞跃大西洋的时候,鸟群都会等我,特别好。 故事中我们可以看到动物与动物之间还有动物与人类的联系,还有大自然给我们带来的震撼。燕鸥们住在格林兰岛,每天吃鱼进食,还要躲避雪鸮的追捕。在生存之外,燕鸥也有丰富的生活,比如为画家叼来花朵,风铃,和小松鼠一起玩。在小房子里和人类一起聚会。 后来鸟群跨越大西洋,在南极洲见到了鲸鱼。那里广阔的大海有深邃的美感。燕鸥和鲸鱼交上了朋友,鲸鱼驮着着燕鸥去看被捕杀的鲸鱼和岸上的死鱼,一起奏响哀歌。游戏的最后燕鸥群和一些新生的健康鲸鱼跨越大西洋去到了格林兰岛。 [code] No Responsibility Review,只根据个人喜好进行评测: [url= https://store.steampowered.com/curator/36266776-NRR233] 无责任评测[/url][/code]
[h1]画面很美,但也太意识流了 [/h1] [h2]前言: [/h2] 不可否认,游戏的画面做得很好,油画的笔触配上自然风光,寥寥几笔确实很有味道。 但由于没有文字剧情,而且没有台词(只有咕咕嘎嘎),这就让游玩理解变成了看图说话。 [h2]剧情:[/h2] 结合给出的介绍,和游戏里的画面剧情,可以总结出这个游戏讲的应该是——叫声频率与伙伴不同的一只北极燕鸥jules,离开族群后意外发现自己可以用这种叫声频率和人类以及其他动物交流,然后就结识了各种人类伙伴比如说画家,其他的动物伙伴比如说鲸鱼。这也应该是游戏名字鲸鸟的由来。 [h2]游玩感想:[/h2] 我还是很喜欢这个油画质感的,非常独特,同时叙事聚焦在一只特殊的燕鸥也让故事的展开很自然。但是游戏在可玩性上,却不尽人意。叙事方面正如开发者名字一样非常虚无、意识流,如果没办法对上那个电波就会觉得游戏玩起来很一般。 [h2]Bug和建议: [/h2] 一个是存在比较多的穿模,不过既然是油画,穿模也是很正常。。。的吧,我自己观察了一下,其实应该是图层顺序问题,很多图像是设置了图层的上下顺序,这就导致最先出场的海鸥,反而是最下面图层,经常就穿模到垫底的位置,叼着别的东西路过一个地方就会出现鸟在下面,叼的东西在上面显示出来的诡异情况。 然后是最开始第一部分叼鱼的地方,只要你在那个位置使用了F键叼鱼,不管有没有叼到,鱼都会直接消失。我知道应该是想要和鱼被叼走的动画形成联动,但是应该加个有没有成功的判定标准,而不是一靠近做出叼的动作鱼就消失了。 最大的问题还是游戏的提示太弱了,有时候要走到很近才会显示一个用笔刷画出来的模糊提示,这时候我们才知道,哦,原来我要摁这个键。 [h2]总结: [/h2] 《鲸鸟》是一款油画手绘画风的互动点击游戏,用意识流的构图和场景变换描绘了一只叫声频率和伙伴们不同的北极燕鸥,脱离群体后发现可以和人类以及其他动物交流,结识艺术家Santi、灰鲸Ken和Alice,建立起一段段跨越海洋和自然的独特关系。游戏中没有文字信息,没有台词,操作上的指导有一些但不多,基本都要靠摸索和对电波。油画质感很不错的,但是贴图也存在穿模问题。 [quote]关注「[url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/45531088] 鸢尾花 [/url]」[/quote] [u][b] 致那一朵未至鸢尾花 [/b][/u]
