Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

As time goes by, Christmas is almost a month away.

During this period, many game companies also promoted their own games.

Among these games, there are basically more client games on the PC platform, followed by mobile games.

As for the VR platform, Interactive Entertainment is the agent for an overseas VR masterpiece.

As for the market, there are also a lot of Western fantasy-themed games these days.

Many of them are RTS-type games.

The reason is obviously self-evident. It was all stimulated by"Warcraft".

It's just that most of the RTS games are basically dead in the face of light.

Even if there are some products with good quality, I am afraid to compare.

Compared with"Warcraft", each of them is like imitating others.

On the other hand, some games that are Western fantasy themes but have ARPG gameplay have not been greatly affected.

On the contrary, it was"Warcraft" that spurred the trend of Western fantasy themes, which actually brought some benefits.

Inside Tenghua Studio.

You Zifang and Tao Fa were sitting in the office, looking at a message on the Internet, and couldn't help but sigh.

"《Including domestic sales of"Warcraft", global sales have exceeded 10 million copies!"Tao Fa was a little surprised, and a little bit lucky.

Fortunately, he didn't have a strong head at the time. Seeing the bad situation, he immediately adjusted the time when the game was launched, avoiding it for more than a month before it was launched.

Sales were not greatly affected. , and his opponent was in misfortune.

Thinking of this, he felt very happy in his heart.

The wanderer Fang next to him also felt a little sad.

When facing"Vitality Knight", he did not take Chen Xu seriously.

In When facing"Three Kingdoms" and"Land of the Land", he felt that Chen Xu was a strong opponent. He was quite different at that time.

But now facing"Warcraft", he has been completely convinced.

He I have to admit that there is a huge gap between him and Chen Xu

"It should have broken the highest sales volume of RTS games, right?"You Zifang sighed with emotion.

"The highest one should be Dynasty produced by UEgame, but it belongs to a whole series. There are nearly ten games that are 7 years away from the first one. If we talk about a single game, then"Warcraft" is the only one that reaches this level. A tens of millions of RTS games."Tao Fa also said with emotion. With tens of millions of RTS games, it can be said that when it comes to RTS games in the future,"Warcraft" will be an insurmountable peak.

And Chen Xu's name , when it comes to the category of RTS, there is absolutely no way around it.

Thinking of this, Tao Fa couldn't help but feel a trace of envy in his heart.

"However, I don’t know what type Chen Xu’s next game will be."You Zifang said with some curiosity.

"It should be a sequel to"Warcraft". From the story point of view, it has not been finished yet. For example, whether Arthas became the Lich King and the whereabouts of Illidan are still mentioned."Listening to You Zifang's words, Tao Fa didn't pay much attention and said casually.

This is considered a conventional thinking.

However, You Zifang has a feeling that Chen Xu is not such a person.

Just like when he developed"Under the Legend""After", everyone thought that he would continue to develop a similar game.

But who would have thought that he had no such intention at all, and instead developed a"Vitality Knight".

After this,"Three Kingdoms" and"Leitu" Coast" and"Warcraft", it can be said that they are all very unexpected.

Just when You Zifang and Tao Fa were chatting, You Zifang's mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.

He took a look The caller ID showed a call from Lin Jiayi, the boss of Tenghua Gaming Department. He quickly answered the call, and then listening to the content on the other end of the phone, You Zifang's expression changed and he showed an expression of extreme surprise.

"What's wrong?"Looking at You Zifang's strange expression after putting down his mobile phone, Tao Fa next to him was a little curious, and at the same time he felt some emotion in his heart. The boss above called him directly. This kind of treatment is not something ordinary people can enjoy.

Although You Zifang is now like this The project is his deputy, but Tao Fa knows that in a future development, You Zifang will definitely be higher than him, so his words are very polite.

"Mr. Lin called me and told me to look at a document. Chen Xu’s next game may be a pixel game."You Zifang's expression was a little subtle at this time.

Pixel type!

Just like You Zifang's expression just now, Tao Fa was also stunned.

The two people discussed this topic for a lot, but who could have imagined what Chen Xu would do next? Which game is pixel?

In fact, there are many excellent pixel games, but they basically exist as independent games.

If game designers have no money, they will basically choose pixel games.

But you, Chen Xu, are short of money people?

《The global sales of"Warcraft" exceed 10 million. Although its revenue has not been announced to the public, statistics from third-party websites have also put it at around 800 million.

Even if the error is 100 million units, it is still an incredible number.

In addition,"The Coast of the Land" is still on the best-seller list, and"Three Kingdoms" can be rushed with the launch of new skins.

It can be said that Fengyun Games is definitely a money maker.

Turns out the new product is a pixel game?

This moment made both You Zifang and Tao Fa stunned.

Not just the two of them, other game designers and manufacturers in the game industry also received this news.

You must know that Chen Xu is the game designer who developed"Warcraft" after all.

Many people are still paying close attention to his every move.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chen Xu didn't do much confidentiality work.

Because it's not very important.

Even if you knew he was making pixel games, what would you do?

Do you know the core elements? have no idea? Then just stare.

However, compared to Chen Xu who knows the charm of"Minecraft", there are also Qin Yi and others who participated in the development.

The other game designers are now confused by Chen Xu's operation.

"What do you think Chen Xu thinks?"

"Yeah, what do you think? He shouldn't be short of money now, right? Why are you making pixel games again?"

"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out"

"If I could figure out what Chen Xu was thinking, then"Warcraft" would be made by me!"

"I can’t guess it at all!"

"I think it's a good thing."Warcraft" had such a strong momentum before, as well as the previous"Land of the Land". In fact, I am now quite afraid of colliding with Chen Xu's games, but now that he is making pixel games, I can't return it. Can it defy heaven?"

"Haha, that's what you said. I feel like Tenghua or Yilong need to find a way to deal with it. After all, they were beaten hard in"Warcraft" before."

"Also, if Chen Xu makes a"Warcraft 2", it feels like Teng Hua and Yi Long have to wait a while, but in pixel games, Teng Hua and Yi Long definitely feel worthy."

"Not necessarily, just wait and see for the time being. Anyway, even if Chen Xu makes a pixel game, I am not prepared to collide with him. What if he crushes me?"

"Are you too timid? Think about it, what if you run him over?"

After the news that Chen Xu's new game may be a pixel game came out, the game industry also had a heated discussion.

There was no way, a"Warcraft" was released.

If we really talk about the size of Fengyun Games, it cannot be called a giant..

But in the three-acre land of RTS, if Chen Xu wants to be the leader in the country, at least no one dares to refute it now.

If you want to refute it, then you can come up with an RTS with the same performance as"Warcraft".

So. Many people pay attention to his every move.
