Build a game empire from scratch

Yang Baizhao received applause.

But not much.

Among the two groups of players and netizens, remove the "silent users" who don't like to talk, and the largest proportion is undoubtedly fun people.

Lezi people don't care who is the last person to advance in the [climbing the building battle].

On the contrary, it was Chen Jin who was the first to trick the referee and succeeded in getting out of the way. After the way out, he pretended to be aggressive on the spot. He won the cheers and applause of the fun people.

After the game, Chen Jin decisively worked overtime to start the live broadcast, and the live broadcast room was filled with ten times and a hundred times the audience in an instant.

In the past, he was just a small anchor, and the audience in the live broadcast room was usually in the early 10,000s.

But this whole activity was really wonderful, and it immediately brought him huge traffic.

Even the [King of Cards] competition itself, due to this unexpected situation, ushered in an explosion of traffic.

Many fun people even @Lin You on the Internet, hoping to hold a special [King of Thousand Kings] competition, completely loosen the restrictions, and let a bunch of people compete for thousands.

Then find a senior old man to explain the players' tricks in real time, and the attention of the whole network will definitely explode!

Lin You saw this suggestion, and he really felt that it could be done.

However, it is not suitable for large-scale competitions, but it is more suitable for entertaining activities such as variety shows for everyone to watch.

Lin You recorded it and forwarded it to Tang Mao, the current head of the "John Wick" operation team, saying that they can watch the situation for the whole episode after "King of Cards" is over.

In addition to these, another major influence caused by Chen Jin is: he directly distorted the application method of [Armment Box].

Before that, everyone put guns and swords in their armament boxes, the only exception being [Hook and Claw].

But Chen Jin stuffed a deck of poker into it!

Although everyone hasn't figured out how he stuffed it in for the time being, they are all gathered in his live broadcast room to ask questions, and Chen Jin is still playing tricks.

But once the brain hole was stimulated, the players' inspiration immediately began to emerge rapidly:

"Poker can be used as a weapon, so there's no reason to fold a stool, right?"

"I thought of a street artifact - brick!"

"Cold knowledge: Hitting the head with a power bank is a lighter sentence than using a brick and a hammer for several years."

"Who can say that a dump truck can't be considered a weapon?"

"The mop...stained with feces?"

"What kind of mop do you want?! Put a few tons of dung on it, and you will be invincible!"

"Where did the dung come from in the virtual world?"

"Stupid, last week the metropolis renewed a farm, there are a lot of chicken manure and pig manure!"

"Can I just put a chicken in it? Chickens can peck people to death!"

"...Your next weapon, why is it a weapon?"

...

Things were running wildly in an outrageous direction, and even many Yunmeng employees became worried and discussed this matter in the company group.

Only people from the development teams of "Pokemon" and "Chang'an" did not participate in these discussions at all.

——They are now all focused on the development of new games, and they have no time to pay attention to these.

Because "Pokemon" set the tone of "light plot, heavy interaction" from the beginning, the development plan has always been very clear:

[UI team] is responsible for designing various game interfaces and interactive UI.

[Art Team] is responsible for taking out a copy of "Shan Hai Jing", getting his own strange beast, studying the character and appearance, and then designing a cute version.

Moreover, it is necessary to design the appearance of the three stages of "infancy", "growth" and "mature".

Because this part of the work started first, and now 15 Pokemon have been preliminarily designed.

At this point, the style of the monsters has basically been determined, the artists have a spectrum in mind, and the efficiency of design has been significantly improved.

Lin You considered that some strange beasts in "Shan Hai Jing" were really not suitable for cuteness, and the sense of disobedience was too strong, so in the first stage, only 45 kinds of monsters were required to be designed.

The art team plans to complete the remaining 30 within half a month.

The second stage is to continue to optimize while drawing inspiration from various myths, legends and folklore stories to design other monsters.

After all, there are so many myths and folklore in the history of China, so don't have too many strange things, it's a pity to waste them.

There is no specific number planned for this part of Lin You, as long as there are no less than 15, the task will be completed, but the more the better.

Stop until you have enough 100, and start to turn to expansion packs to design other styles of monsters.

[Battle team] is responsible for designing various monster skills and combat effects.

The special effect design of dozens or hundreds of skills must be differentiated as much as possible, which makes them very headache.

[Numerical Value Team] is responsible for designing combat values, growth values, enhancement values, and other content about values.

The point is to design a good balance between the strength ratings of little monsters and monsters of the same level.

The last one is the [commercial group].

They are responsible for the design of the "Monster Store". The types of products, prices, limited purchase quantities, etc. all need to be considered and calculated by them.

In addition, they also shoulder a responsibility: do a good job in the balance between free players and krypton gold players, so as to generate profits without affecting the game balance and destroying the game experience of free players.

The guidance given by Lin You is: You can spend money to save time, but you can’t spend money to reduce the amount of exercise.

Give me exercise!

The ideal goal is not how much cash flow this game can bring, but that no one on the Internet will worry about the decline of players' physical fitness.

With the full dedication of all teams, the progress of the game development is very smooth. As long as there are no accidents, it can be launched before the Chinese New Year.

Lin You even thought up the promotional words——

"Take your little monster and go compete with your relatives!"

However, both Shen Ping and Xiao Chun have some opinions on this slogan...

The "Chang'an" development team is a little different. They didn't really get nervous until today.

Although everyone was working in full swing before, but because the main storyline has not been settled for a long time, they all do their own things, and it feels a bit like a straggler.

But today, Lin You finally finalized the plot.

He was also a little speechless: the employees didn't know whether it was because they were too psychologically burdened, or they were influenced by someone. The plots they designed were getting more and more outrageous one after another.

I won’t mention the stories of chasing murderers in various openings where the whole family died tragically and the whole village was wiped out.

The most outrageous idea is this: the fiancée ran away with others at the beginning, and the protagonist thought that the fiancée had been cheated, so he chased all the way to Chang'an, trying to find them.

Because the fiancée and the adulterer were passionately in love, they ran around the city of Chang'an, playing all kinds of celebrations.

The protagonist has been chasing behind, and naturally followed in the footsteps of the adulterer and prostitute, experiencing all the gameplay.

Of course, the words used in the proposal submitted by this employee would not be so blatant.

But despite the appearance, he is essentially a miserable man wearing a cuckold, following behind his butt all the way to watch his fiancée show off his love for others.

Lin You was silent for a long time after reading it, and arranged Wu Yu's psychological counseling for the employee on the spot.

...

In short, Lin You's final story is not new at all, even a bit old-fashioned: looking for relatives.

The protagonist enters Chang'an alone, looking for his missing sister.

On the way to find my sister, I meet various people, experience various adventures, grow up in the process, and finally find my relatives.

Of course, this story is not amazing, but it is king enough.

And there is no shortage of freshness.

After all, this is not a story that happened this year. It is not a brother who lives in a fourth-tier city. He enters Xiajing by high-speed rail to find his younger sister. As soon as he leaves the high-speed rail station, he can call and ask, "Hey, where is my sister?"

This is a family search story that happened 1400 years ago at the end of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Not only has the protagonist in the story never seen Chang'an, but he doesn't know what he will encounter in this city.

Players don't know either.

What they faced was the same strangeness and unknown.

The goal of Lin You and the development team is to fill this "unknown" with enough dreamlike content.

An unprecedented journey for all!

After deciding on the plot, Lin You also divided the development team into groups.

But it's not an overall grouping like "Pokemon", but an astonishing 25 groups!

This is Yunmeng's unprecedented generosity.
