Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

On a computer in the experience store, Chen Xu didn’t say anything about not allowing live streaming.

Because it can be put on the experience store computer, Chen Xu basically doesn't worry about exposure.

So after sitting down, Yang Xin quickly opened a live streaming software that came with the computer in the experience store.

Then the live broadcast screen was transferred from the mobile phone to the computer.

Although there is no camera, unlike other female anchors, she actually broadcasts games, so it doesn't matter whether she can turn on the camera or not.

There are only a few game icons on the computer

《"Undertale","Vitality Knight","Three Kingdoms","Land of the Land","Warcraft", and Chen Xu's new work"Minecraft".

Without any hesitation, Yang Xin double-clicked the game icon of"Minecraft" to officially enter the game.

Because it is a trial version placed in the experience store, you do not need to log in to an account on Fengyun Game Platform to directly enter the game.

What caught the eye was a grassland-like scene, but it was just a picture of pixels.

White clouds drifted across the sky in the distance, and the sun penetrated the white clouds and shone on the earth.

The clouds in the sky form the game's LOGO chart.

At the same time, the shadows cast by the sun also spliced ​​the name of the game"Minecraft" on the ground.

A unique light effect that looks pretty good.

Many people did not feel how good the picture of"Minecraft" was through the camera of Yang Xin's mobile phone before, and only looked at it based on the previous perception of pixel style.

Now through feedback from a live broadcast source on the computer, many viewers watching have a certain feeling.

That’s the art style of this pixel, it doesn’t seem to be very bad.

‘There is something about this light and shadow!’

‘It’s a little different from the pixels you imagined!’

‘Yes, the sunshine, white clouds, and this light and shadow, I think it’s quite beautiful.’

‘I feel like these pixels are pretty good. '

The audience in Yang Xin's live broadcast room also started discussing.

In fact, regarding the pixel style of"Minecraft", Chen Xu also referred to the high-definition material packages and light and shadow patches launched by some masters in the previous"Minecraft".

"Minecraft" that has replaced the textures and light and shadow MODs is completely different from the original"Minecraft" in terms of screen performance.

At the same time, Chen Xu also borrowed from another modern retro pixel method for art processing, which is the processing of light effects in"Octoward Traveler".

In"Minecraft", players can clearly see a change in light and shadow, especially since"Minecraft" also has a weather system.

On a sunny day after rain, the rainbow and water mist combine with light and shadow to create an effect. It can be said that the cost in this aspect is not low.

This is why players can feel that although"Minecraft" developed by Chen Xu is a pixel game, it looks very good-looking.

Of course, these light and shadow effects, including material performance, can be adjusted through in-game options, and players can choose freely if they don’t want it.

The UI interface of the game is also very simple and clear.

In addition to the settings of the control buttons, there are also screen-related settings, and function options such as exiting the game.

There are four modes in total to choose from.

The first one is a 'single player game', the second one is a 'multiplayer game', and the third one is the same LAN mode as"Warcraft".

In the case of the same network, players can directly enter this mode to play the game. Of course, a player needs to use his own archive as the host.

The fourth one is a custom game. The server built by the player using his own console as the game archive is located in this.

However, in the current experience store, players can only choose between single-player games and local area network modes.

In terms of multiplayer and customization, the game is still not open.

After thinking about it, Yang Xin directly chose a single-player game mode.

She had watched it for a while before, but there were still some contents that she didn't understand.

And watching is watching, and playing by herself is playing by herself, so she decided to play by herself first.

As for the LAN mode, she also looked at it.

It doesn't seem to be much different from playing alone, because everyone is not in the same place at the beginning.

However, you can use special instructions to teleport directly to other teammates in the current game.

But there is also a note later. This function will not be available on the official multiplayer server at that time.

After selecting the single-player mode, the first thing that appeared in front of Yang Xin was a character choice.

The default for men is a person named Steve, and for women is a person named Alyx.

However, you can also customize your face.

Yang Xin took a look. Although it was a pixel-style game, the character's head was also a square.

But the eyes, eyebrows, mouth, and nose are also very detailed.

The original skin prototypes of Steve and Alyx are not used.

Yang Xin created a new role for herself, and then named it‘YX’Entered the game.

After completing the face pinching operation, a selection box popped up in front of Yang Xin.

Prompt her to choose a mode to play the game.

It is divided into 'Creative Mode' and 'Survival Mode'’

"Let’s play the survival mode first. This sounds like it should be a bit challenging."Yang Xin quickly made a choice

"As for difficulty, choose Normal."

Before, she saw others playing a creative mode, where they directly had abundant resources and could fly to the sky and escape from the earth.

So it felt like a game of building blocks.

Maybe the survival mode would be a little different?

‘This is your first time entering survival mode. Do you need to know some basic knowledge to survive in this world? '

Entering the game, a dialog box popped up in front of Yang Xin.

Obviously this is something that every player who has just entered the game will face.

That's the Beginner's Guide.

The entire game is at an unfamiliar stage. Although I stood behind someone else and watched it for a while, the person before was playing in creative mode.

And there are still some things she doesn't quite understand.

So Yang Xin did not skip the guidelines.

She was also quite curious about how this game was played.
