Yang Liang was shocked.
I looked at the information on the list in disbelief.
Regardless of the game type or gameplay introduction, it was exactly the same as what Lao Song told him.
He even vaguely remembered the name "Slay the Spire".
That "junk game" that he rejected outright was released so quickly and even reached the fifth position on the daily sales list?
How can this be!
Yang Liang suddenly raised his head: "Quick, go find out who made this game, I want all the information on it!"
"Ah?...Oh, okay, I'll go right away."
The employee obviously didn't expect Yang Liang's reaction to be so violent. He glanced at the name of the game and immediately turned around and left the office and returned to his workstation.
ten minutes later.
A detailed piece of industry information appeared in Yang Liang's hands.
He had a calm face and his eyes flicked back and forth on it.
When I saw the big words "Lingming Studio" on the outsourcer list, I felt my breath pause.
It was really the game he rejected!
In just two months.
Just making a game that received such a good response from the market made his face even more ugly.
Misstep.
You actually missed out on a game with huge potential.
If the board of directors finds out, they will definitely hold him accountable and think that his actions are unfavorable.
But he would never be able to lower his face and go to Liming Studio, let alone lower his status for a small studio.
After all, he was the one who refused in the first place.
The only way out now is to find a way to make up for the mistakes and fill the hole of losses.
"Contact the author of this game immediately and talk to him about the buyout. We can offer a high price!"
Although he didn't understand why this game with a simple style suddenly became popular, it didn't hinder his judgment.
If you want money, Star Travel has plenty of it.
I am not afraid of being rejected by him as an independent designer.
As long as we win this game and rely on the company's investment to increase operations, we will definitely achieve results far beyond the current level. Even if the board of directors has any objections, it will be hard to say anything.
"By the way, didn't the R&D department have a similar shelved project before? It seems to be called Lost Castle? Let them pull out the filing documents and make a card-themed game based on it."
"Okay, I'll go and notify them right away."
After responding, the employee hurriedly left and went to the R&D department to find the relevant person in charge.
As a person working in the game industry, I have a very keen sense of the player market.
The sudden explosion of "Slay the Spire" has undoubtedly opened up a new way of playing, giving the card game a second spring.
Even if they don't take action, other game manufacturers will definitely follow suit and squeeze in to carve up this cake.
So you have to be prepared with both hands.
Even if the acquisition fails, they can quickly launch a card game of their own.
At that time, we will rely on Star Travel’s reputation and resources.
Are you still afraid that you can’t compare to this personally released game?
...
as expected.
In just a few days.
Many game manufacturers have successively revealed projects under development, including several games similar to Slay the Spire.
Several manufacturers that focus on the field of card games even worked overtime. They slightly modified the original project and changed it to a similar gameplay before releasing it urgently, which immediately attracted a large number of players to watch.
"Good guy, is this a stab at the card nest?"
"Why are all the recently released games of this type?"
"You don't know yet? There was a card game called "Slay the Spire" that became popular before, and these manufacturers are all riding on the popularity."
"Haha, I know, it's that weird game that turns CG into a drama!"
“Isn’t it supposed to be a free game for fans? (laughs)”
"Don't tell me, that show is quite interesting, especially the fights are so explosive. I've already caught up to the sixth episode."
The CG animation released by Chen Lin was produced based on the world view and background of Slay the Spire.
The minaret was originally called the Tower of Babel, which is the stairway to heaven.
In order to prevent mankind from continuing to build, the gods came to the world in person and changed the human language, causing mankind to divide and fall into chaos, and the construction of the Tower of Babel also came to a standstill.
On the surface, the gods brought higher technology (cards) to the tower, but in fact they brought a curse.
After gaining great power, the forces in the tower began to compete, be suspicious of each other, and attack each other.
Countless civilizations and adventurers died in the battle.
The curse of the cards and the resentment of the creatures corrupted the tower, swallowing up all the adventurers who tried to climb the tower, and imprisoning their souls.
And the protagonist of the animation.
It's the kid in the escape team at the beginning of the first episode.
Because he was forced to leave the tower, half of his soul was imprisoned in the tower, and he had to embark on the path of finding himself.
This is the origin of Slay the Spire.
"Look! The seventh episode of Slay the Spire has been updated!"
While everyone was discussing changes in the gaming industry, a new update was suddenly posted on Chen Lin's official account.
[Episode 7 of Slay the Spire, The Battle of Fate! Updated. 】
updated!
The CG animation of Slay the Spire has been updated again!
After seeing this news, the players couldn't hold back.
It has only been a few days, and I have never seen any manufacturer update CG more diligently than updating games.
"Fuck! I haven't even finished the game yet!"
"Seeing so many people taking advantage of the popularity, they still have the heart to update the animation. This must be too ambitious."
"Great! Is the protagonist finally going to have a fateful showdown with his other half of the soul?"
"Wuhu~The chasing gang has taken off, and the fateful showdown is about to begin!"
"When I finished playing Time Devourer in Episode 6, I had a feeling that the protagonist would encounter his soul sealed in the tower, but I didn't expect it to come true!"
"After fusing the other half of the soul, you should be able to climb to the top of the tower, right? I really want to see the finale soon!"
Same as the main game.
There are many people who are chasing the Slay the Spire TV series.
As soon as I received the news, I immediately rushed to the B site and clicked on the update page to check it out. It was even more popular than the game.
But immediately, something even more outrageous happened.
Because there was another update on Chen Lin’s account.
[As the protagonist recovers the other half of his soul, the corrosive power of the tower loses control and riots occur. "Slay the Spire" will update the advanced mode simultaneously, and 20 advanced difficulties will be added. Please check the game homepage for details.
....]
???
Has the game been updated as well?
The players looked shocked.
Does this designer have three heads and six arms? He immediately updated the game after updating the animation, and it was such a big update.
"What do you mean, do you mean that I have only cleared the level on the lowest difficulty level?"
"Awesome! Originally, I thought it would be too easy, but I didn't expect it to be just an appetizer."
"There are actually new ways to play. Buying this game for 50 yuan is really a huge profit!"
"Just in time to try the routine I just developed."
"Go, go, go, I want to be the first man to climb to the top of the 20th step tower!"
The dual updates of CG animation and game finally pushed the popularity of "Slay the Spire" to its peak, and sales began to surge.
Those manufacturers that had just released games did not take advantage of the popularity. On the contrary, even their own players were sucked away, and everyone was extremely busy.
They really couldn't figure out where they lost.
