Lin Yao heard Zhong Xiu's question, thought for a while, and shook her head.
She really doesn't know.
This time she launched so many games, covering a variety of genres, and she also had the idea of casting a wide net.
Although many of these games have already passed the test of the market in Lin Yao's previous life.
But after the baptism of "Battle Royale".
Lin Yao no longer believes too much in her own experience.
"Do not you know……"
Regarding Lin Yao’s reply.
Zhong Xiu was slightly surprised.
"Well, whether it will be popular or not depends on the market. It's hard to predict. Don't forget that our original intention of making these games is to make games that are more stable and interesting compared to the uneven third-party games.
."
Lin Yao smiled and said: "But there is no necessary relationship between stability, fun and popularity. Our goal is not to make the game popular. Of course, popularity is better... But for us, forming a certain word-of-mouth effect is actually enough.
So you ask me which game will be the most popular, I don’t know, or rather, I hope they will all be popular.”
"That's...okay."
Zhong Xiu laughed when he heard this: "But to be honest, Lin Yao, according to your strategy, the price of the game this time is extremely low, and it is almost impossible to make early profits. We are losing money making games... and making money from online games.
Whether you make money to make independent games or make them at a loss, although I understand your plan, many staff members didn’t understand it at first.”
Lin Yao shrugged: "Many producers don't understand either. Miss Mu has been harassed every day recently, but I can't say anything. They also have their own positions. Just let fate dictate everything. I hope the strategy can succeed and the game platform can truly stand firm.
Heel, by then, the game will be able to sell better and doubts will disappear."
"Um."
Zhong Xiu nodded, and then joked: "If it really succeeds, then maybe all the independent game producers and stand-alone game producers in the country will thank you."
"Forget it, it'll be fine if they don't scold me."
Lin Yao was a little dumbfounded.
"Take a guess, Lin Yao, which game do you think will be popular next time we launch it?"
Seeing her expression, Zhong Xiu did not continue the topic, but asked: "You should have someone who is particularly confident, right?"
"Hmm..."Shadow", it can be considered a masterpiece."
Lin Yao casually mentioned the game running on Zhong Xiu's computer, and then asked: "What about you? There is one too?"
"Um."
"which one?"
"all."
Lin Yao: "..."
It’s really a face-saving gesture.
…
The time has come to July 5th.
Lin Mu Studio has been silent for a long time.
Finally there is action.
Action for the Vaporwave gaming platform.
For the first time, they removed the Greenlight Project promotional banner on the Vaporwave game platform and instead put up a green promotional banner with a countdown...
It has the words "Summer Special Promotion" written on it...
It will officially open on July 10th.
Although the banner does not have jump links yet.
But the simple and clear word ‘summer special promotion’ still allowed players to immediately understand what Linmu Studio wanted to do.
The game is on sale!
Although players are a little puzzled that Linmu Studio only has a few games but has such a big battle.
But some players are indeed interested in the two games of the Greenlight Project and "Battle Royale". Some players who were originally hesitant after seeing the price were quite happy when they saw the news of the promotion, and made up their minds if the promotion was strong.
, then it’s not impossible to buy it and play with it.
at the same time.
Those independent game producers, stand-alone game producers and Lin Yao's colleagues also noticed the actions of the Vaporwave game platform. They were also puzzled, but not only were they puzzled by Linmu Studio's big battle, they were also puzzled by it.
I feel confused about the time they chose to launch the event.
Because the popularity of "Journey" has passed.
What promotion are you doing now?
Are you mistaken...
Any functions?
and……
"Just these few games? Are they on sale? Do you think it's a hypermarket? It's over, just wait to die."
Du Kaiding, the boss of Conggu Studio, looked at the brightly colored promotional banner hanging high on the Vaporwave game platform, with a black line on one end.
I think Linmu Studio is crazy!
Okay.
When the platform became popular because of "Journey", they did nothing. They also added restrictions and review requirements for third-party games that wanted to be on the Vaporwave game platform!
The heat is over now.
The action is coming again.
What kind of promotion is going on in a big way?
The question is, how many games do you have on your platform?
Hard to understand.
baffling.
This is Du Kaiding's most direct idea.
Many people in the game industry have similar ideas to Du Kaiding, and they have no idea what Linmu Studio is thinking.
It always feels like it’s in terms of gaming platforms.
Linmu Studio's strategy is... strange.
And the time came to July 6th.
Probably after receiving feedback from players.
Linmu Studio added a line of comments on the summer special promotion page.
That is - in this summer special promotion, whether Project Greenlight games and third-party games will participate is decided by the producers.
It's okay if there are no comments, but this one does.
The player also got a black line.
no.
Whether games and third-party games participate in the Greenlight Project is decided by the producers... So if they don't participate, is your promotion just for "Battle Royale"?
So why bother?
Why bother with such a big battle?
The players were confused.
Soon, a hanging picture made by a shady netizen appeared on the forum - a man looked excited and opened the conspicuous promotion page on the homepage of the Vaporwave game platform, but there was only one "Battle Royale" hanging on it. The man's excited expression disappeared instantly.
Poker face……
Players all began to laugh at Linmu Studio for going to war.
The entire gaming circle is full of joy...
but.
This situation did not last long.
Because it was the same day that Lin Mu Studio added the comment.
A new game has been added to the ‘Coming Soon’ list of the Vaporwave gaming platform.
This game is called "Mario", it is a platform jumping game, and the producer clearly says...Linmu Studio!
The original price of the game is 10 yuan, but a promotion sign has appeared on it, -90%, and it is now only sold for 1 yuan!
Currently in pre-order stage!
This is also the first game on the Vaporwave gaming platform, the summer special promotion page.
And just when the players discovered this game, they were a little surprised and were about to go to the forum to share it.
A few minutes later, Linmu Studio launched a second game called "Shadow". It is a horror game, and the producer is also Linmu Studio!
The original price of the game is 70 yuan, and there is also a promotion sign on it, -90%, only 7 yuan!
Within a very short period of time.
Linmu Studio suddenly released two new games.
The players who saw it were immediately stunned.
What the hell?
Promotion after release?
Besides, isn’t this too productive?
Players are confused, but this is just the beginning.
