What are the highlights of this work?



During preparatory stage, I selected CVs suitable for each role from more than 20 CVs registered

Among them, there are some veteran voice actors who have been in their career for more than ten years, and there are also some interns in the dubbing studio.

And some of the voice actors are native northeasterners of China.

Most of the backgrounds images in the game were illustrated according to the landscape of Shenyang.

Compared with the previous video version, the game includes additional scenes, CG, and enhanced visual effects.
