Developing a high-quality game in a week is like a fantasy for ordinary game companies.
But for Youxing Electronic Entertainment, it is not a difficult matter.
The scale of the number of people is there, which is beyond the reach of any game company at the moment.
No need for 996, just go to and from get off work normally.
The biggest expense in these seven days may be labor costs, not other game development costs.
A week later, Candy Fun was launched on time.
It became the first mobile game owned by Facebook with certain in-app purchase elements.
Prior to this, most mobile games were on a buyout basis, and even those with in-app purchases were of a trial nature, similar to the follow-up release of some new expansion packs for buyout games.
It is also a relatively new thing for some people who are not interested in games.
"You can get ten dollars in props by making a reservation. You can get ten dollars in props by subscribing to Facebook video membership for a month. I also got five dollars in props from online shopping. The total is twenty-five dollars. It seems pretty good."
Davidson stared at his phone, which was displaying the interface of the Facebook App Store.
There is a countdown on the main interface, and this countdown is the countdown to the launch of Candy Colorful.
Davidson is not a gamer. He is a warehouse manager for a warehouse company. He is usually responsible for counting inventory. It is a relatively easy job, but he needs to be on call at any time, which leaves him with not much free time.
But he still enjoys this job.
Usually when he has nothing to do, he will take a book and read it in the warehouse. When he needs to work, he can put it down and work at any time.
But recently he got a new and trendy gadget: a smartphone.
This is a new electronic product that has just emerged recently.
The main reason is not that he is interested in this product, but that people around him are starting to discuss this thing, and this thing is also considered a must-have product in the new era.
Davidson also wanted to be a little more fashionable and not too behind the times, so he also bought a smartphone and began to learn how to use it in the warehouse during this time.
Originally, he first considered the Mickford family's smartphone.
But that one is really a bit expensive.
The MK1, which has been on sale for two years, is still selling for $400.
On the other hand, the performance of Facebook's smartphone is not inferior to the latest MK3, but it only sells for $299.
This gave him little hesitation.
In the United States, not everyone can buy the latest and most fashionable products regardless of money. Americans also have demand for cost-effectiveness.
It is precisely because of the low-price strategy that Facebook was able to seize a certain market and begin to expand its influence.
It is not that no one within Mickford has suggested lowering the price of the MK series, but Myron Case has always insisted that the price remain at the current state. The high quality of the MK series must always be maintained and must not be shaken.
For Davidson, there is no such thing as being superior. They are all smartphones anyway, so just buy them so you won’t fall behind others.
In recent times, he has gradually become familiar with the various operations of the smartphone and praises how convenient it is.
If you usually do some simple warehouse inventory records, you can easily record them on your mobile phone, and you can also use them to take photos. There are also some very convenient software to make your work more convenient.
This made him start to think that owning a smartphone can indeed improve work efficiency, which made him think that buying such a smartphone is also very cost-effective.
After that, he started to come into contact with some entertainment software on his mobile phone, started shopping online through his mobile phone, watched some interesting videos on his mobile phone, and also used it to read books.
However, the screen of the smartphone was too small, and it was really tiring to look at the phone with this device, so he did not persist.
Then, suddenly one day, some of the software he often used appeared with very uniform advertising content.
All are related to a game called Candy Fun.
Video games?
This is something he has never been exposed to before.
He had seen many advertisements promoting video games before, but he was not particularly interested in these advertisements because the video games mentioned in these advertisements required payment before playing.
Players who are generally familiar with video games will say that these buy-out games are quite cost-effective, and you can buy dozens of old games for a few dollars.
But he is not a gamer, and he doesn't think this is a good deal.
However, this time the ad is different.
This time, this game called Candy Fun does not require spending money at the beginning, it is a completely free game.
free
The word was highlighted emphatically, which immediately attracted his attention.
In the past, people always said how fun video games are, but he was hesitant because he needed to spend money in advance.
Rather than spending money to buy these things in advance, he prefers to buy a book.
However, books are not cheap in the United States. It usually costs tens or even hundreds of dollars to buy some relatively qualified works.
Now that Davidson saw the word free, he thought he might give it a try.
Later, he became even more excited when he saw that he only needed to purchase a video membership service to obtain additional prop rewards of a certain value in the game, or that he could also obtain prop rewards of a certain value when purchasing goods online.
He doesn't have much resistance to paying for video membership. He usually likes to rent video tapes and watch movies. Now he just spends the money for renting video tapes online, and the content he can watch online is better than what he can watch simply by renting video tapes.
If it is much more, he will feel that it is not a loss.
As for online shopping, he has gradually become accustomed to using it. The convenience of this thing is that he does not have to go far to the supermarket to buy things. Daily necessities that are not urgently needed can be purchased online and delivered to his door. The quality is sometimes better than driving all the way to the store.
The ones bought in department stores are even better.
He is willing to use and consume online shopping and video membership services. On this basis, he will also be given some props of equal value such as candy and fun, which he feels is quite worth it.
At this moment, the countdown to the launch of Candy Colorful Fun has entered.
He planned to enter the game as soon as possible to receive props, and then experience what a video game is.
Ten, nine, eight, seven...three, two, one.
When the countdown ended, a download button appeared where the countdown had originally been. Davidson clicked the download immediately, and then waited for the game to be downloaded with a little anticipation.
"Davidson, we have work to do!"
"coming!"
Davidson took a look at the download progress on his phone. He probably would have finished downloading the game by the time he finished work, so he put his phone on his workstation and went out to work.
