Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

Regarding the headline article released by Game Research Institute, the content did not disclose the plot, but only sold it off with a Riddler-like feeling throughout.

However, many exaggerated descriptions were cited in the article.

For example, after completing"Undertale", the editor was silent for a long time.

This is a game that breaks the constraints of traditional RPGs.

This subverts players' understanding of RPG games. It turns out that a game can be so shocking.

And so on and so on.

Of course, it is not just praise. At the end, the Game Research Institute also gave some shortcomings of the game after consulting Chen Xu.

For example, the game's UI and other cross-sections are not refined enough, and because it is an independent producer, the graphics are not as good as expected.

But these shortcomings, compared with the shocking vocabulary descriptions before, are a bit inadequate.

"Isn't it? Is Sir that exaggerated?"After reading the entire article, Zhang Yue was a little shocked.

He was not shocked by the game"Undertale", which he already knew the name of, but by this article from the Game Research Society.

Previous games It is not that the Research Society has not praised some independent game products.

But there has never been an article like today's article.

Even if it were not the official account of the Game Research Society, Zhang Yue would definitely think that this headline article is a coincidence. An advertisement.

And it’s still the kind of casual advertisement with no bottom line.

But now, Zhang Yue suddenly became curious.

What kind of quality is a game that can be praised like this by the Game Research Institute?

It’s the same as Zhang Yue There are also many players with ideas.

Most of them read this title from the Game Research Institute, and then became a little curious.

In addition to the game itself,"Under the Legend", Chen Xu used pure Free system.

Players can experience it casually, which attracts more players.

The most direct part is the game data that Chen Xu has been observing.

It is refreshed every hour, and there will be a big increase.

At night After seven o'clock, the relevant data once again ushered in a big increase.

From 7 o'clock to 11 o'clock in the evening, this is considered a prime time period. The headline promotion article of the Game Research Club has the greatest fermentation of the game's popularity. At the same time, this The time period is also a period of time for players to be free, which can be used to experience the game.

Before seven o'clock, the hourly download data increase of"Undertale" on all platforms was about 1,500 downloads per hour.

But when it comes In the time period after seven o'clock, this number more than doubled, reaching about 3,500.

Moreover, the number of comments on the game has gradually begun to increase, and the number of player certifications has exceeded 1,000 for the first time.

You know, it is not far from"Legend""Under" was officially launched on the game platform, and it has only been about 10 hours until now.

Even if it is due to the headline article by the Game Research Society, this data can be said to be extremely explosive.

"Damn it, Brother Xu is awesome! This data growth rate must be stable!"

"Not only is it stable, I feel that the game"Undertale" may even become another benchmark in independent games!"

"This ending is simply too shocking!"

The latest data was obtained from Chen Xu in the dormitory. Ma Neng and the three of them were shocked.

For people who are a little more capable than themselves, they may be envious or even a little jealous.

But if they are much more capable than themselves, , then most of them will only have envy and admiration.

There is no doubt that the three Ma Neng people are like this now.

Compared with ordinary people, they who are engaged in game design majors understand the current situation of the game"Under Legend" better. What does this data and quality mean?

"It is estimated that when Brother Xu gets the title of game designer, major game companies such as Yilong, Tenghua and Interactive Entertainment will come to poach Brother Xu. Ma Neng said with some envy.

These three companies are considered to be the top three game manufacturers in the country, and they are also called the Big Three.

Their business covers a wide range. Yilong and Tenghua are targeting mobile games, PC and VR. As for games.

Among them, Yilong started by self-research, and Tenghua started by acting as an agent for overseas games, but later they also started to develop themselves.

As for interactive entertainment, they have both, and their strength is inferior to the first two. Some.

But overseas channels are better, and their reputation is better than these two.

Chen Xu, who was still looking at the background data of"Under the Legend", shook his head.

"Go to the Big Three? I don't have that plan."

Hearing Chen Xu's words, Ma Neng and the three of them showed stunned expressions.

Entering the top three is a dream of many gamers.

And with the current situation of"Under Legend", Chen Xu may even enter the top three. Directly become a designer responsible for the project alone.

In this case, Chen Xu said that he has no plan?
