Game Design: Is that okay, CaiGou?

Chapter 365: Let you participate in the competition, what the hell is the Three-Body Animation? (Subscribe)
As we all know, among the major factions of the Yellow Turban Army, the Reformists were one of the first two factions to be established.

At the same time, the Reformists are recognized by players as the most capable faction in the Yellow Turban Army, without a doubt.

This time, in the event of who can become a multi-millionaire, all the players in the gaming circle are certain that the reformists will do something big.

But players generally believe that the direction of the reformists' work is -

Or you can go to the Redstone competition area and use the latest Redstone technology to create various abstract Redstone works.

Or in the construction area, use various building materials to create all kinds of incredible buildings.

But no one expected that this time the reformists would not play by the rules at all and directly chose to overturn the table.

The reformists, relying on their incredible ability in abstract creation, created the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem.

Anyone who sees this kind of incredible operation will say - Awesome!

Today, there is really one crisis after another. First there is the simple redstone calculator made by the owner of Mingyue Manor, and then there is the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem made by the reformists.

Boss Yin glanced at the comment section and found that the netizens were extremely excited. He couldn't help but feel extremely curious about the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem.

Let’s put aside the idea of ​​the three of them changing divisions for now and first see how the reformists perform against all odds this time.

【My Three-Body Problem: Season 1】

[Introduction: Astronomer Ye Wenjie is brought to the military's top-secret project, the Red Coast Project, to send the first cry of Earth civilization into the universe.]

[The Three-Body Civilization four light years away is fleeing from its home planet and has received information from Earth.]

[Ye Wenjie, who despaired of humanity, revealed the coordinates of the Earth to the Trisolarans, completely changing the fate of mankind...]

【Episode 1: Crazy Years】

"This introduction, you know what, really has that flavor."

Boss Yin pressed the play button for the first episode with great anticipation.

The sky is blue and white clouds are floating. On the university campus, there are several teaching buildings on the flat land covered with green grass, and a running track surrounds the playground.

At this moment, in front of the playground, outside the runway, a simple stage has been built, and square people in different clothes gathered here.

The playground was filled with noise. People stared at the stage, shouted loudly, and vented their excitement and anger.

On the stage, two cube-like soldiers in military uniforms held a cube-like man with gray hair hostage in the middle.

A stern rebuke resounded across the stage——

"Ye Zhetai, you are well versed in all kinds of mechanics. You should see how powerful the great combined force you are resisting is. If you continue to be stubborn, you will only end up dead."

"Today we will continue the agenda of the last meeting. I won't waste any more time talking nonsense. Please answer the following questions honestly..."

In the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem, the scenes are simple and the characters are all cube-shaped. There is no subtle change in the characters' expressions, and even the costumes of each character require the audience to carefully identify them.

But it has to be said that the reformists strictly followed the story logic of The Three-Body Problem and reproduced the scenes and plots in my world, and even a series of arrangements such as storyboards were done to perfection.

At first glance, the My World version of The Three-Body Problem can be summed up in two words - rough!
The picture is rough, the modeling is rough, and the characters are rough!

But once the audience calms down and watches it, they can easily appreciate the charm of this animation.

There is no forced plot change!
No forced brand advertising!
There is nothing to complain about in the plot!
There is just a group of young people who are passionate about the Three-Body Problem and want to create a "heart" of the Three-Body Problem through "My World".

The first episode of Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem is not long, only 9 minutes and 43 seconds.

Boss Yin no longer worries about the pixel style, the stiff movements and expressionless faces of the blocky characters, and the not-so-professional dubbing, but instead immerses himself in it and feels the charm of this anime.

On a dark night, Bai Mulin and Ye Wenjie chatted in a dilapidated wooden hut.

Bai Mulin handed the letter in his hand to Ye Wenjie.

"Then I'll mail it in two days. My hands have been shaking from the chainsaw these days. I can't even hold a bowl. My handwriting is terrible."

Ye Wenjie answered without hesitation: "I'll copy it for you and give it to you tomorrow."

“Are you studying physics?”

"Astrophysics is useless now."

"So it's the study of stars, right? How can it be useless?" Bai Mulin said regretfully:
"Now that universities have resumed classes, they are no longer recruiting graduate students. It's a pity that such a high-level talent like you is stuck in a place like this..."

Ye Wenjie was a little excited: "I am very lucky to be here... I won't say more. I'm leaving now."

As soon as the words fell, the screen went dark.

[Episode 1: End]

"Hiss, my world version of The Three-Body Problem really has all advantages except for its shortcomings." Boss Yin applauded.

The netizens were speechless, what's the difference between what you said and not saying anything?
But to be honest, when it comes to imagination and creativity, you have to be the reformists.

Apart from them, who would have thought of using Minecraft to shoot the Three-Body animation?

This is simply a genius idea!
After watching the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem, the fans who rushed to the site after hearing the news were extremely excited and urged for more updates in the comment section.

"Wallfacers, the Reformists of the Knights of the Round Table, I am your wallbreaker - urge more troops!"

"Are you kidding me? If the foreigners next door see this, they'll think I look down on anime. What do you mean they're all the same? This little bit is not enough for anyone to watch. One more episode. One episode per person!"

"Great! Thank you for the hard work of the Reformist Knights of the Round Table!"

"I can't take it anymore. I felt it was very serious and sacred when I read the novel, but this episode of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem really made me die of laughter."

"Fire Tongs Liu Ming! Please update quickly, Reformist, I advise you not to be ungrateful! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you."

"After watching the My World version of Three-Body, I finally understood why the Reformists did not participate in the three major competition areas set up by the old thief, because these three competition areas simply cannot accommodate the ambitions of the Reformists!"

"After watching this episode, I have to admit that the reformists did a great job, but I also discovered a term - delay chain. At the same time, I also hope that this anime can have a technological explosion."

Using the pixel-style game Minecraft to present the grand cosmic view of "The Three-Body Problem" is itself a bold attempt and innovation.

This new style will undoubtedly bring a unique visual experience to the audience. At the same time, it has attracted a large number of Minecraft game fans to watch because of its fresh gimmicks.

Moreover, when the reformists made the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem, they better preserved the core plot and character settings of the original work, which made it easier to gain recognition from fans of the original work.

At the same time, the pixel-style graphics can show unique detail processing in some aspects.

For example, through the clever use of color, light, shadow and materials to create a sci-fi atmosphere and a sense of reality in the scene, the pixel style may also appear unique in certain special effects processing.

But even so, my world version of The Three-Body Problem, strictly speaking, is not without its shortcomings for Hassan.

Although the pixel style has its own unique charm, it also limits the visual presentation of certain scenes and plots in the original work to a certain extent.

For example, some sci-fi scenes that require delicate depiction, or complex character expressions, may be difficult to present perfectly in pixel style. However, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, after all, the adapted works need to face two types of audiences: fans of the original work and non-fans of the original work.

Fans of the original novel may be more concerned about the degree of restoration of the work to the original novel, while non-fans of the original novel may pay more attention to the fun and watchability of the story.

The mainstream voices of these two groups have a high opinion of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem, and they spontaneously forward, like, collect and comment on it.

Ever since Taipingdao launched the "Who Can Become a Multi-millionaire" event, no other region's work has ever had such a rapid and powerful impact as the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem.

Less than half an hour after the release of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem, not only did it become a hot search, but it also led to terms such as Taiping Dao, Minecraft, and the Who Can Become a Multi-Millionaire event, all of which became hot searches.

The reformist version of The Three-Body Problem in Minecraft, a work independent of the three major competition areas, has become a huge hit on the entire Internet and has become a monument in Minecraft that no one can ignore.

The reception room on the top floor of Taiping Avenue.

Cai Gou was holding a tablet, watching the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem with great interest, while Fei Yangyang and Zhu Pingan were sitting beside him excitedly.

half an hour.

After watching the first episode, Cai Gou reposted the video of the reformists, and not only liked it but also left a message of support.

Putting down the tablet, Cai Gou said, "The reformists did a really good job."

“Really?” Fei Yangyang laughed, and said with pride: “This is my first time watching it, and my reaction is the same as yours, Brother Gou.”

Zhu Pingan agreed, "It's amazing. Who would have thought that my world could be played like this? I have to say, the reformists are really awesome this time."

"Hey, now that you two mentioned that, I have an idea." Cai Gou smiled without saying anything, acting as a riddle teller.

Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an and Fei Yangyang didn't tolerate it and started tickling Cai Gou's armpits, causing Cai Gou to laugh so hard that he fell backwards.

"Hahahaha, I say, I say."

Cai Gou, who almost couldn't breathe from laughing, quickly surrendered.

Zhu Pingan and Fei Yangyang then sat up straight and listened attentively.

"Here's what I'm thinking. Maybe we can set up an anime zone in addition to the Redstone zone, the Construction zone, and the Speedrun zone."

"what?"

Fei Yangyang immediately thought of the prize money issue: "If we create another animation competition area, the prize money for the players alone will have to be increased by an additional 10 million yuan."

"Ten million? What's a mere ten million?" Cai Gou curled his lips and said:

"Just the Minecraft version of Three-Body, the commotion it caused today, and the huge publicity it brought to the event and Minecraft, cannot be bought with 10 million, or even 30 million."

Zhu Pingan strongly agrees with this, but as the person in charge of the Minecraft game project, he also has his concerns.

"I agree to establish an animation competition area, but the entry threshold for this area is too high. In terms of the number of participants, it is definitely not as many as the other three areas. If only the reformists stand out, will it result in a short-lived effect?"

"Hmm..." Cai Gou nodded.

"I have also considered this aspect, so I want to develop an animation scene maker specifically for MC to lower the threshold for players to participate."

“This software comes with all the materials in Minecraft, and players can build scenes and create animations in it.”

Zhu Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Is there enough time?"

"Why don't you just ask?"

Cai Gou called Xu Lai and informed him of his software requirements one by one.

"How's it going? Can you handle it?"

On the other end of the phone, Xu Lai's calm voice came:
“This is not a difficult task, and there are precedents for animation scene makers.”

"There are universal animation scene makers on the market. If I connect with Ping An's project team now."

“In a week at most, I could develop an animation scene maker for Minecraft.”

Cai Gou was very satisfied after hearing this: "It's better to be early than late. The animation maker project will be launched now. If there is anything you need the cooperation of the emperor's uncle, just tell him."

"Okay." Xu Lai continued, "But Mr. Cai, I need to tell you something first."

"Well, tell me."

"This kind of software generally does not have post-rendering technology, so it has certain disadvantages in image quality." Xu Lai said:
"My World is a pixel game after all, so the animation effects produced are still similar to the pixel style of the original game."

Cai Gou laughed and said, "You don't have to worry about that. Our animation scene maker is only to lower the threshold for players to make animations. Pursuing high image quality has never been our current goal."

"That's fine. I'll gather some people now."

After receiving a positive answer, Xu Lai nodded in reply.

Cai Gou hung up the phone, looked at Zhu Pingan and Fei Yangyang, and said with a smile: "Done!"

Zhu Pingan asked: "Brother Gou, should we announce the establishment of the anime division now, or in a week?"

"Maybe in a week... Once the animation scene maker is developed, we'll give everyone a surprise."

Zhu Pingan and Fei Yangyang heard this and nodded with a smile.

at the same time.

The reformist Knights of the Round Table, these veteran fans were very excited to see their own leader. They not only liked the video but also praised it highly.

After getting Cai Gou's encouragement, the reformists became more determined to produce the second episode of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem.

The activities on the Steam platform and the Destiny platform have been going on for half a month so far.

In terms of popularity, traffic, public opinion, etc., the Tianming platform has certain advantages.

Now, after the release of the reformist version of the Three-Body animation, the influence is beyond expectations.

In this way, the Tianming platform directly surpasses the Steam platform.

As time goes by, the influence of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem has not only not decreased, but has increased instead.

Leon sat on the chair, suppressing his inner unhappiness, and reluctantly finished watching the first episode of the Minecraft version of The Three-Body Problem.

He didn't understand why an anime with simple and crude production, amateur voice acting, and utterly messed up scene building could generate such a big response in the gaming circle and the original fan circle.

"No, we can't let this trend continue to spread."

Leon's eyes were sinister, and he said in a deep voice: "I must do something!"
