In February of this year, the single-player game circle can be said to be full of flowers and experts. Before that, the popular IP open world blockbuster such as “Hogwarts Legacy” swept the market, and after that, the new talent of various categories such as “Wild Heart”, “Hero Company 3” and “Son of the Forest” appeared on the stage. But the most eye-catching new FPS game of this month was “Heart of Atoms” developed by Mundfish.
The story background of “Heart of Atoms” is set in the parallel time and space of the Soviet Union. In an ideal utopian world, robots and artificial intelligence technology have been greatly developed, and production and life have achieved a high degree of automation. 然而，由于一次意想不到的实验，原本为人类服务的机器人失控逃跑，只有玩家的主角才能阻止它们，揭开风波背后的真相。
乌托邦奇幻、苏联美学、原子科学朋克这些内容结合在一起，形成了独特的世界观和美术风格，使得游戏从一开始就吸引了众多玩家的眼球。在这些独特的元素中，最让玩家兴奋的莫过于在预告中多次出现的双胞胎机器人——双胞胎舞者。
曼妙的身体曲线，优雅的舞蹈动作，经典的东欧卷发，还有额头上的红色五芒星。在欧美厂商追求多元文化的今天，这样的角色设计直接冲击了众多玩家的XP，也为这款游戏带来了超高的人气。早在游戏发售前，玩家们就对这两款女机器人充满了向往。
看到玩家们如此喜爱双人舞者，游戏官方也加大了这方面的宣传力度。她们还为女机器人注册了INS账号，上传了多张AI生成的“艺术生活照”，吸引了大量玩家的关注和点赞。
游戏正式发售后，能够与双生舞者近距离接触的玩家纷纷表达了喜爱之情。各种二次创作视频和COSPLAY等作品在网络上广为流传。很显然，双生舞女成为了2023年玩家们的第一位“电脑老婆”，
有意思的是，双生舞女的角色设计与其他受到玩家追捧的女性角色截然不同。没有五官是最突出的特点，这并不影响玩家对他们的热情。这对女机甲究竟有着怎样的魔力，让无数玩家走上了“机械恋爱”之路？
很多玩家对女性机器人的角色设定有着天然的好感，而这种现象可能要归功于那些设计精良的女性机器人形象，比如《底特律：变人》中的卡拉和《尼尔：机械纪元》中的2B。这些女性机器人角色深受玩家喜爱，甚至在某种程度上成为了整个游戏的招牌，她们都通过讨喜的面孔或者服装设计吸引了玩家的眼球。
在《原子之心》中，双胞胎舞者的脸只有光滑的金属表面。如果只看脸，就像商场里的试衣模特一样，很难引起人们的兴趣。开发团队解释说，他们认为加入面部设计会导致“恐怖谷”——看起来像人的脸会让玩家感到不舒服。
事实上，游戏中其他有五官的机器人并不能做出非常生动的表情。仔细一看，还真是让人心神不宁。玩家打开包装后，双胞胎舞者实际上拥有设计好的五官，但也比不上其他机器人。所以我们也可以说，制作组不给双胞胎舞者加五官的决定是正确的。
Since there is no face to see, the player’s eyes will naturally move downward, and this is the time for the twin dancers to show their killer mace. The game team has worked hard on the waist, thigh, chest and buttocks of the twin dancers, focusing on a concave and convex, sexy and hot, which also successfully impressed the players at the first time on the two female robots.
With a good figure that has impressed countless players, the action design of the twin dancers also highlights this advantage as much as possible. Ballet is one of the most famous and excellent art and culture in Russia. The production team added this element to the actions of the twin dancers, and even invited professional ballet dancers to capture the actions.
The movements of the two female robots in the game are extremely elegant. Even in the battle, there will be the symbolic high leg lifting and rotation movements of ballet. The duet called “famous scene” by the players in the game is also amazing.
The style design of the twin dancers is also traceable. Many players said that the image of the two female robots is very similar to the work of the Japanese illustrator Konyamaki. The metal obsessed art master prefers to use cold steel to express the charm of the female body. His landmark work is a variety of enchanting machinery made of cold metal. Some players believe that the design of the twin dancers in Heart of Atoms may have been inspired by this artist.
In general, the twin dancers in “Heart of Atoms” canceled the facial design, which not only avoided the “valley of terror effect” that may make players feel uncomfortable, but also allowed them to pay more attention to the figure and shape of female robots, and carefully designed the action of the role, so that the ballet elements further surprised the players. By specialization of this aspect of charm, The faceless twin dancers have a more unique attraction for players.
值得一提的是，在游戏中，还有不靠颜值就能让玩家着迷的角色设计。也就是游戏发售后立即引发热议的“幻影冰箱”诺拉。作为玩家的升级大本营，这款有着机械触手的机器在外观上没有亮点，但线条温暖奔放，非常撩人。凭借不断的“虎狼之言”和配音演员的出色表现，只能升级和玩家互动的诺拉成为了游戏中的“最佳燃烧者”之一，人气飙升。达到了双生舞者的层次。
除了双人舞者和魔法师冰箱，游戏中的其他机器人在设计上也非常独特：专注于畜牧、清洁等简单工作的MFU-68“劳动者”，拥有致命刀片的ARU-31“镰刀” ，以及NA-T256“娜塔莎”，一款带有火箭推进装置的重型机器人，这些玩家在游戏中会遇到的机器人，都被设计成了“苏联气质”。无论是粗犷的军绿色钢壳，还是机身上印着的红色五角星和“CCCP”字样，都让人感受到苏联工业简单粗犷的实用主义风格，在游戏中非常有味道。
Perhaps, the gameplay of “Heart of Atoms” is not very good, and many of the contents of the game are relatively rough. However, the vast majority of players still do not hesitate to praise this game. From the robot design to the scene style, it makes its artistic style unique in a lot of games.
In general, the success of “Heart of Atoms” in sales and word of mouth today is inseparable from its unique artistic style and relatively complete play design. The role of twin dancers has brought higher attention to it at the stage of publicity, but the game can maintain its own word of mouth after its release depends on the solid quality of the game, The twin dancers have added more highlights to the already excellent game.
