After Zhong Xiu read the plan handed over by Lin Yao, he raised his head and looked at her in surprise.
"Um."
"Explore the enemy in a small area with itself as the center of the circle. When the enemy is explored, the enemy will be highlighted... Isn't this perspective?"
"Yes, perspective."
"Ah, this."
"But when he uses his skills, he will emit a special red light effect, which the enemy can also see and will also remind him."
"Okay... It's too bad to step into the void and enter the safe void to move quickly and avoid all damage, isn't it? And..."
Zhong Xiu continued to read the introduction to the legend below, then lightly scratched his head, hesitating to speak.
I don’t understand why Lin Yao wants to join the complicated legend system.
The rules of battle royale are simple.
But as Lin Yao added many game mechanics and legendary concepts, it suddenly became complicated.
"The battle royale genre may be interesting at first sight, but in the long run, the pace is slow and the playability will gradually decrease as players become familiar with the game."
Lin Yao saw Zhong Xiu's face and knew what he was thinking, and explained: "The concept of adding heroes, resurrection stations, and pulling people is to increase the playability of the game."
"Playability..."
Zhong Xiu looked at the newly printed planning book and roughly constructed the complete game in his mind. Then after hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "I understand, then just follow what is in your planning book and continue.
The staff responsible for "Breakout" will go out separately, and the rest will develop the platform and the game separately. However, due to the increase in game mechanics and the addition of the concept of legend, the production cycle of the game will become longer."
"I know, and there's no rush. Let's run the two current online games first. You guys will slowly polish this game and the platform. After we find a new address, our studio will move, and I will also let Miss Mu
Expand recruitment and try to recruit as many people as possible.”
Lin Yao replied softly: "It doesn't matter if you don't do it quickly, but you must do it well."
"Okay, I understand, then I'll start preparing. The platform side is very troublesome. The engine team are all technicians who make games. It's probably too difficult for them to build the platform. If we recruit people, recruit the platform side personnel first.
"
"OK."
Lin Yao agreed.
After the two communicated for a while, Lin Yao went back to draw the original painting of the game legend.
This is quite simple.
Because it is an existing game, Lin Yao almost just followed the drawing, and the map is almost the same.
At the same time, Lin Mu Studio.
On the first day of the new year, I entered a busy state.
Operation of two online games.
Follow-up processing of the event.
Construction of game platform.
Production of new games.
There's also the Greenlight program.
These things are going on almost at the same time, and the workload is indeed quite large.
But as Mu Wanqing said, this is the most important year.
Everyone knows it too.
And what do you think of Lin Mu Studio? I don’t know whether it’s because of the good treatment when it was just established, or because of the temperament brought by Lin Yao at the helm.
Most of the staff are very enthusiastic about their work.
Although busy.
But the efficiency is also good.
Just one week.
The platform already has a shell, and with the addition of the engine, the game is making new progress every day.
Everything is going step by step.
"Done."
this day.
Lin Yao finished drawing the last legendary original painting in the plan, then put it aside, then turned around and looked at the game works that were the most anticipated game awards at DEAS, the annual summit of the digital entertainment industry.
The original work of Project Greenlight.
She plans to choose it herself.
As for her favorite games, there were two before.
One is a meat pigeon game.
When Lin Yao first saw it, she felt it looked familiar. When she first watched the demonstration, she always felt like she was regenerating cells.
She is very interested.
Then there is another RPG with a pixel style. Although I don’t know what the plot is, the battle system seems to have been put a lot of effort into by the production team, and it feels equally interesting.
And this time I watched the video again.
Lin Yao specially selected one game from each category.
Covers almost all game types.
But they are all independent games and stand-alone games.
no way.
The most anticipated games at the Digital Entertainment Industry Annual Summit are all independent games, and online games will not participate at all. The only one participating is "Breakout"...
Although Lin Yao wants to take care of both stand-alone and online games, her current conditions are limited, so she can only do this for now.
If this favor plan is successful, let’s consider it again.
She listed the games she was optimistic about, and then called Miss Mu and asked her to contact the production teams and explain the Greenlight project. If the game had already been released, then it would be abandoned.
But if it is not released and you are interested.
He invited them to attend.
…
Yin Tianyu has been in a hurry recently.
Because the game I have been preparing for two years is almost getting cold.
What he is making is a meat pigeon game. In fact, last year, the capital chain was very tight.
no way.
Although it is only a small team of three people.
But no matter how small the number of people is, they still need to eat, and his savings have bottomed out...
He resolutely resigned for the sake of his own game, and then he teamed up with his friends to hire an artist, and he was ready to pursue his dream.
It went smoothly at first.
But as time went by, there was no return for a long time.
Enthusiasm is sapped.
The production progress began to slow down...
Then came the issue of funding.
Last year's DEAS was his last chance. Originally, he wanted to rely on broadcasting videos to see if he could attract some investment, but that time, the most anticipated game award was stolen by "Breakout".
And when he went to find investors, most people were not interested in his pixelated pigeon game.
I think the picture is too crude.
The gameplay is too simple.
Moreover, the domestic stand-alone market is too small and has not given him a chance.
Then came the new year.
His friend finally couldn't bear it anymore and chose to go to work, while the artist also resigned because there was no salary...
Now he is left struggling to support himself.
After the new year is over.
He took his work everywhere to find people who were willing to invest, or companies that were willing to help him publish and provide some support so that he could make the game.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But I still hit a wall everywhere.
The graphics are not good, the gameplay is simple, and we are not interested.
Cookie cutter responses.
Someone else asked him, your game doesn’t even have a shopping mall? How do you make money?
Every time Yin Tianyu hears this sentence, he vomits blood.
This is an independent game with pixel style. How can I make a shopping mall?
A game with a buyout system! How do I make a mall?
But when the other party heard about the buyout system, they shook their heads.
He also thought about finding an online platform to see if he could put the game on it first, check the pre-order situation, or start crowdfunding.
However, there are no mature platforms in this area in China, and even those that exist are not yet mature.
So he was a little desperate.
"...Do we really have no choice but to give up?"
Yin Tianyu sat blankly in his chair, looking at the game on the computer screen, feeling a little frustrated.
At this time.
His cell phone rang.
Yin Tianyu picked up the phone and looked at it, then sighed, picked up the phone, and said: "If you advise me to give up, there is no need to say anything. I am really not willing to give up for this reason. Really
If it doesn’t work, I will find a job and slowly finish the game. Even if no one is willing to release it, I will make it available for free download, which can be regarded as fulfilling a dream of mine."
"..."
After listening to his words, the friend was silent for a moment, and then said: "I know, but I am not here to advise you to give up, but Linmu Studio has contacted me."
"...Linmu Studio?"
Yin Tianyu was slightly shocked when he heard this name.
The mood is a bit complicated.
On the one hand, he actually complained a little when the online game "Breakout" stole all the limelight on DEAS.
But on the other hand.
He also admires Linmu Studio because he has also been making games for more than a year, and he knows very well how much manpower and financial resources are required to produce several of Linmu Studio's games.
He really admires Linmu Studio's innovations in gameplay and graphics.
In fact, most independent game producers have the same idea as him.
My impressions of Lin Mu Studio are very complicated.
"Why are they contacting you? They can't be recruiting, right? Do they want you to join them?"
Yin Tianyu breathed a sigh of relief, and after a brief shock, he asked.
"No... they just came to ask me if our game is interested in participating in their Greenlight program."
"Light of favor...?"
…
at the same time.
Sky Fox.
Currently, the largest online game company in the country is holding an internal meeting.
The year has passed.
The acute issues that had been shelved at the beginning were put on the table again.
The FPS game owned by Tianhu was almost unable to resist the disastrous defeat of "Breakout", but a small studio on the other side was successful in hosting competitions and was even named and praised.
All this made Tianhu boss Li Guangsheng very angry.
Although he has watched the competition for so many days, he also knows that Linmu Studio can succeed because of its uniqueness.
But he also resents the dissatisfaction of his company's subordinate departments.
Plus last year's fourth quarter.
Tianhu's revenue has dropped significantly compared to last year.
He was disgraced in the boardroom and had nowhere to vent his anger.
So the Tianhu product department suffered.
Li Guangsheng caught several middle and high-level managers and scolded them. He banged the table and got angry, which silenced everyone in the conference room.
"What do you do for a living? The other party can hold a competition, but we can't? Are you all pigs?"
Li Guangsheng went around and asked questions.
Everyone in the conference room lowered their heads, not daring to say a word.
In fact, I can't say anything.
After all, you can't talk back.
We can only let Li Guangsheng lose his temper.
Li Guangsheng scolded them one by one and finally felt a little better.
He took a deep breath, looked at the person in charge of the product department with a dark face, and asked: "At what stage has the cooperation with the communications department reached?"
The person in charge of the product department immediately raised his head and replied: "We are already confirming the details."
"It's too slow. How long does it take to confirm and confirm? It's so difficult for two departments in a company to cooperate, isn't it?"
Li Guangsheng still had a dark face: "You and the person in charge of the communications department come to me later. If you don't cooperate, I will teach you!"
The person in charge of the product department: “…”
Li Guangsheng continued: "In addition, let your project team below and eBay's project team be prepared. Tianhu plans to create a game platform so that all games can be logged in with Tianhu Chat accounts, breaking through account barriers, and all
The project team all got involved with me.”
This is what he plans to accomplish this year, inspired by Mou Feng's words.
really.
The huge number of users of Tianhu Chat would be a waste if left alone.
Instead of each project team working independently.
Leave eBay alone.
It is better to use Tianhu Chat and its multiple games as the basis to build a game platform and completely break through the account barriers!
Then rely on Tianhu’s huge number of players to build the largest gaming platform in the country.
