A game is a structured type of play, normally undertaken for enjoyment or enjoyable, and occasionally utilized as an instructional device. Games are unique from work, which is generally executed for reimbursement, and also from art, which is more frequently an expression of aesthetic or ideological elements. Nevertheless, the difference is not precise, as well as many games are likewise thought about to be work (such as expert players of viewer sports or games) or art (such as jigsaw challenges or games including an imaginative format such as Mahjong, solitaire, or some video games). Games are in some cases played totally for enjoyment, sometimes for achievement or benefit as well. They can be played alone, in teams, or online; by amateurs or by experts. The players might have an audience of non-players, such as when individuals are amused by viewing a chess champion.

- First of all, please introduce yourself. What is your favorite game?

PHI Dinh (hereinafter PHI) Hello. Phi Dinh, a co-founder of Phigames. I was responsible for the lead programmer and game designer, a hacking adventure game inspired by Metroid Vania! We sometimes sunny, almost almost raining city, based in the British Manchester.

I'm glad to introduce this work to GAME * SPARK readers. I am very happy to be a unique one in the genre, because there is also a sense of immersive. We cooperated with Indie Games Publisher Dear Villagers, and they were able to raise this project to the upper level. Then I was able to make a great release with PC / (overseas) PS5 / XSX.

My most favorite PC game is probably The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Sometimes I think that it is full of bugs and messy, but the sense of adventure and there is in the open world, I think personally with any other game compared.

-Why did you start developing this work?

Phi I wanted to create a game with a stage in the computer since I was a kid. What does the virtual world be adventurous or always imagined in his head. After studying computer science at university, I started to be interested in AI. Therefore, I decided to create a game that draws about the impact of artificial intelligence from the viewpoint of computer program program.

In this work, the player is a virus with a sense. And the actions that cause the player will affect the story and ultimately determine what AI will create an AI that the player will create. In other words, this work fuses many things that I am very interested. From artificial intelligence to Virtual World, Open World Games, and Metroid Vania. Originally, this work has started to evolve and grow up to an ambitious game, growing it into ambitious games, and will be developed together by involving other programmers and artists. bottom.

- Please tell me the characteristics of this work.

In addition to the traditional moving ability of Metroid Vania style, who said PHI double jumping and dash, a hacking system with unique logic appears in this work.

From the door it took the lock machine enemy comes out, and until the puzzle, everything is around has been activated by the ethics gate circuit. It is the same as the real world's electrical circuit. Hacking can manipulate and manipulate these ethical gate circuits, and change the environment to change the environment.

The AI ​​for PHI humanity is Toron Matrix Terminator Bladelanner , and Ian Banks It is drawn in a book like the Culture ** series. If it is a good setting, AI will declare against humanity after technical singularities and try to extend human beings. However, in many stories, the relationship is also drawn that human and AI can coexist with peace.

In this work, I tried to draw all these possibilities. Therefore, multi-ending with player action is adopted.

PHI There is no plan to respond to Japanese soon. However, volunteer translation is very welcome. If you are interested, please email the Publishing Partner's Dear Villagers by e-mail.

-Did you have an impact on development by new coronavirus?

PHI new Corona affects the game industry in various ways. Of course it is a bad sense, but it seems that some good side. The development team could not participate in realistic events around the world. If you were able to participate in Tokyo Game Show 2020, it can not be seen how a wonderful experience. However, since it was not possible to participate in realistic events, the time and money spent in the content development of this work increased, and the opportunity to leave the development has also decreased, so this is good.
