Let you make games, you directly shoot blockbusters?

Huanhai Group, reception hall.

"Old Yan, you said that we rejected the invitations of so many manufacturers, is the decision to join Huanhai right?"

Five figures in their twenties and thirties sat side by side on the sofa in the waiting area with serious faces.

They are one of the best-performing production teams at this independent game festival.

As a small group that has been in the industry for several years, they stand out from the fierce competition with their superb technology and novel ideas.

What followed was naturally overwhelming olive branches, and a large number of game manufacturers rushed to invite them to join.

But in the end.

They didn't choose the ones with the highest pay.

Instead, Huanhai, the largest among them, was chosen.

Because the gunfight games they made happened to be what Huanhai was best at.

"Actually, I think Honghuang's conditions are also good, and the treatment is higher, so they should pay more attention to us?" Another person couldn't help but said.

"Honghuang is really good. It has launched several popular games, but after all, it has only been established for more than half a year, and its background and resources are a bit weak."

The man called Lao Yan analyzed in a low voice.

"Yes, the first thing we need to consider is the development of ourselves and the team, which is obviously more suitable for Huanhai."

"But I heard that they have cut a lot of projects recently."

"Isn't it normal to cut projects? Games with no commercial value will only lose money if you don't cut them and keep them. Are you so unconfident in your technology?"

"I"

The young man opened his mouth and finally closed it again.

He didn't know whether to say something or not.

In this game industry, technology really cannot represent everything.

It is not uncommon for them to see such things as the company's loss and bankruptcy due to poor management and poor decision-making.

For example, Juhan abroad is because they invited a financial manager to be the production director.

As a result, he didn't understand anything and gave orders indiscriminately, only caring about whether the company's financial report was good or not.

In the end, the product qualification rate of the entire company plummeted, and it was almost reduced to the end of selling the company building.

sometimes.

Understanding the high level of the game is more important than the technology itself.

Otherwise, if you rush into the game industry with a passion, you will only be beaten to death.

He believed that other members also knew this truth.

But for them with huge dreams, all persuasion seems so powerless, even if he himself tends to choose the bigger Huanhai.

Perhaps this is the blind obedience of human beings.

Just hope they make the right decision.

"Huh? Honghuang just issued an announcement saying that the previous version of "Humanity Falls Flat" is going to be released on the steam platform, and a new function will be added."

At this time, the member who was looking at the phone on the other side suddenly raised his head and said in surprise.

"New function? What function?" Old Yan asked.

"What does it seem to be called. Creative Workshop?"

The news of Hong Huang's sudden update immediately attracted the attention of many players.

Especially those who played this game at the Independent Games Festival, clicked in with curiosity to check the updated content.

[Creative workshop: a player-oriented production module. In this game, players can edit levels with in-game or self-made materials according to their own preferences, for others to play and score. 】

[From now on, all players who get the best level of the month will automatically wear the title of "Star Designer", as well as a series of titles such as "Most Creative" and "Most Popular". Welcome to explore more. 】

"Fuck! Design the level yourself?"

"Can the game still be played like this?"

"I just wanted to say that there are too few levels in this game. I didn't expect Honghuang to have a backhand!"

"It's a great idea to make a level by yourself and make it public for others to play!"

"It moved, my designer DNA moved."

"Wait, I will design a level that will make you cry!"

Hong Huang's new creative workshop function immediately caused a lot of waves.

A large number of players poured into the game, clicked to open it, and there were many levels that had never been seen before.

And what makes them even more excited is that the author's signature will be displayed on those levels, so that people can see who made the level at a glance.

This makes those hands-on players very happy.

It is the gospel for design lovers that the designed things can be recognized and appreciated by more people!

Not only that.

The levels they designed will also compete with design enthusiasts from all over the country, and the players will score.

This greatly increases the playability of the game and the interaction with the player group.

After all, no one wants to lose to others.

Even some villains have found fun here, specially designing those difficult levels, and taking pleasure in tyrannizing other players.

"Hey, I want to see who can pass the level I designed."

In the university dormitory that was taken astray by "Need for Speed" before.

The fat man looked at the masterpiece of design in front of him with a proud face, then slid the mouse and clicked upload.

And the roommate next to him was surprised: "It's weird, didn't you say you never play games? Last time, you bought it just to catch up."

"Can't I change now? This game is different from others. There are things I like to play."

"Cut, a man's mouth, a deceiving ghost."

"It sounds like you are not a man, do you want this game?"

".want!"

Fatty looked contemptuous, turned his eyes away and continued to design the next level, the whole person enjoyed it.

Even online.

There are many people with the same hobbies as him.

For a while, a large number of puzzle-solving levels with different styles emerged, which aroused the popularity of the whole game, and even those anchors and Internet celebrities also entered the arena one after another.

"Chen Lin, the way you came up with is absolutely brilliant! You can bring this game back to life in one go, and it's already on the verge of exploding!"

In the office, Lao Song was amazed, looking at the sales data and comments on the page that kept rising.

Only two hours after it was released, the sales and online rate of players have soared, and even the bad voices before have disappeared.

It's even more mysterious than a miracle doctor who came back from the dead.

He sometimes wonders how Chen Lin's brain grew.

Even though he is so much younger than himself, he can always produce something unexpected.

I feel like I'm the most unseen guy.

Chen Lin, who was sitting on the chair, smiled: "If this kind of game wants to become popular, the most important thing is to allow players to participate."

"We are just a few people, and creativity is limited after all, but it will be different if we replace it with a huge player group, and it can also increase the interaction between the studio and players."

"Indeed." Lao Song nodded, deeply understanding, "Sometimes for an idea, I can't even think of it. It's a good thing you can come up with this method. I guess those guys have nothing to say now?"

"It's just a group of people who follow the wind, so don't worry too much about it." Chen Lin closed the sales interface, and changed the subject, "Did you find those martial arts instructors I asked you to find?"

"It has been found, and it can be shot at any time."

"Okay, this time the new game is released, we have to do a different promotional CG."
