Crossover: 2014

Chapter 12 Sand Sculpture Games Are Crazy

Although after uploading the game on the night of the 9th.

Lin Hui fell asleep early.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't care about the app's performance.

In any case, this is also the first APP he made in this time and space.

Lin Hui still desperately hopes that this game will be a success.

Get up in the morning on the 10th.

Lin Hui couldn't wait to know how the game "Life Restart Simulator" would be.

As an "old father", Lin Hui couldn't wait to see his "child" grow up.

……

Just picked up the phone.

Lin Hui saw that the small screen of the 5s was full of messy notifications.

But he still habitually reads the class news first.

Before clicking in, I saw the suffocating 999+ unread.

Lin Hui thought something big had happened.

After all, the class was originally silent after the college entrance examination.

Roughly flipped over.

Only to find out that it was all about the game "Life Restart Simulator".

This surprised Lin Hui.

But he also wanted to see how the students commented on the game.

……

The most up-to-date news was posted by He Siyuan, a senior game explorer in Lin Hui's class, at 11:[-] last night:

"Hey, let me tell you, I found an interesting game called "Life Restart Simulator"..."

"[Screenshot] [Screenshot] [Screenshot]...I think the plot setting is quite interesting..."

Liu Yao: "You just discovered this game? I saw a female anchor playing it and found it very interesting, so I downloaded it too. I have been playing for more than an hour.

By the way, this game is so sandy. After I played for about half an hour, I somehow unlocked the plot of cultivating immortals. "

He Siyuan: "I have also unlocked this plot, but I always get lost every day!"

Liu Yao: "It's not normal to be robbed. I was robbed three times without dying!"

He Siyuan: "Is it possible to survive being robbed? Haven't died three times??? Are you kidding me?"

Liu Yao: "There are pictures and the truth, okay! [Screenshot]"

He Siyuan: "Fuck, you're lucky enough. I once practiced until I was three hundred years old, but I was killed by a powerful person, and my Taoist companions were snatched away!!! [Sad] [Big cry] [ anger]"

Liu Yao: "Pfft...forgive me for laughing unkindly..."

The conversation between the two broke the silence of the class after the college entrance examination.

Directly exploded a bunch of diving:

Chu Han: "Isn't it called "Life Reopening Simulator"? Why does it sound like "Xiansheng Reopening Simulator" from your description?"

Liu Siyuan: "What the goddess said makes sense! In fact, it's called "The Bizarre Adventure of the European Emperor" or "[-] Ways to Die a Non-Chief". I think it's very appropriate..."

Liu Yao: "Who knows? It may be that the game planner suddenly let himself go...Anyway, you go try it. It's hard to say the specifics of this game. It's very special. Do you understand?"

Lu Shiping: "Hey, are you talking about that kind? I understand, go download it right away [bad laugh][bad laugh][bad laugh]"

Liu Yao:. . .

After a few minutes, Lu Shiping came back again: "Excuse me, after searching, I can only download it from the iOS app store, and Android users fainted in the toilet."

Cao Haichao: "iOS users are also crying in the toilet, and it costs six yuan to download..."

Lu Shiping: "Don't pretend, who doesn't know that you, Mr. Cao, have charged more than [-] yuan in online games, don't cry poorly here."

Cao Haichao: "I don't, no, don't talk nonsense, Mr. Li is still in the group. Don't make people innocent, I'm a good boy, I never play online games, let alone recharge money."

Lu Shiping: "Hehe, I believe you... By the way, why is Teacher Li still in the group chat? Let's remove her from the group chat!"

"System message: Lu Shiping has been removed from the group chat by the group leader, Teacher Li"

. . .

After that, the conversation gradually became crooked.

Later, several people in the class who downloaded the game were frantically posting screenshots.

Lin Hui was not interested in these, so he stopped flipping through them.

……

However, Lin Hui found that not only the class was discussing this game enthusiastically.

Even in the circle of friends, many people are posting screenshots of this game.

……

Lin Hui logged into his personal developer account and checked the background data:
Lin Hui found that since "Life Reopening Simulator" was launched at 21:30 yesterday, the number of downloads has been increasing rapidly.

As of now, the download volume of this game has reached 177 million.

The effective downloads are as high as 84.

(ps: The effective download amount here is calculated similarly to that in steam, and the game cannot be refunded after playing for more than two hours, which is equivalent to effective download.

In fact, the ios refund time limit is 90 days, which is too stretched to describe in the novel)

Both the number of downloads and the number of effective downloads are very important!
After all, downloads are directly proportional to popularity, and effective downloads are linked to the final income of developers.

Lin Hui remembers that before September 2015, 9, the price of AppStore apps and in-app purchases was divided between αpple and developers.

Among them, αpple accounts for [-]% and developers account for [-]%.

In other words, it is calculated according to the current effective download volume.

Lin Hui's expected income is already 352.8 million (84×6×70%)

And this is only temporary.

After all, effective downloads are still growing steadily.

According to the current momentum, it is not a big problem to have more than one million effective downloads on the first day...

In the developer account, Lin Hui also saw a bunch of official news from αpple:
"Hello, dear developer, the game "Life Reopening Simulator" developed by you has been included in this week's App Store Selected New Games. During this period, it is best not to have a large version iteration to avoid unknown bugs. The impact of player experience…”

"..."

"Hello, dear developer, the "Life Reopening Simulator" developed by you has been selected as a high-quality APP, and has successfully joined the AppStore (individual) developer incentive plan. For details, please refer to the link www.<>.com"

"Hello, dear developer, I am Huang Jing, a software engineer at AppStore. If you need help, you can communicate with me at any time. Contact information:..."

"..."

Incentive program?What the hell is this, an iOS-specific feature in this world?

What surprised Lin Hui the most was that "Life Reopening Simulator" actually rushed to the third place in the most popular searches.

Lin Hui didn't buy hot searches.

So this game really exploded? !

……

In fact, Lin Hui is not surprised that this game can explode.

It can be said that "Life Restart Simulator" will either not go online, or it will explode.

After all, in later generations, it took less than 12 hours for this game to go online from its public release to becoming popular on the Internet.

This open source project from GitHub completed its beta testing on September 9, and was first released on Baidu/Du Tie/Ba in the morning of September 2.

In just a few hours, the game went "viral".

The number of visits to the homepage of "Life Restart Simulator" reached an astonishing 5000 million on the first day, and the number of players reached 300 million on the first day.

In three days, the number of players exceeded [-] million.

The game "Life Reopening Simulator" can break out of so many mobile game masterpieces in later generations and gain a place.

There is no reason why it cannot be popular in this time and space.
