Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

After teaching Zhao Shan and the others to complete the novice guidance.

Yang Xin turned his attention back to his screen.

After completing the novice training, a sparkling treasure box appeared in the center of the screen.

After a slight click, a pleasant female voice system prompt rang.

‘Congratulations on completing the novice tutorial, we have prepared some small gifts for you, the great summoner.'

Then the box trembled, and then a burst of golden light flashed.

A reward to choose from appears on the screen

【Lich King Arthas Garen

‘After completing the novice game, you will also receive more generous rewards. Yang Xin's eyes lit up

, he looked at the original skin painting gradually disappearing on the interface, and then clicked to enter the collection.

A shiny new skin is showing up in the collection interface.

Yang Xin clicked the mouse, and then the screen showed Galen's appearance after decorating the new skin.

The original armor on his body turned into the dark skeleton armor of Alsace in"Warcraft", and at the same time, the sword in his hand also turned into Frostmourne, which shone with orchid light, and the inscriptions on the sword were looming.

In fact, there was a similar skin in the previous life of"League of Legends" called Death Knight.

The prototype is Alsace, and it’s not just one.

The main reason is that Riot itself was just a small workshop from the beginning, even with Penguin's investment.

It is called a tribute to the outside world, but in fact it is just a copyright skirting around to sell skins better.

For example, the skins of the Warcraft series and Mundo's war bloodline are based on Hellscream.

Before the subsequent Source Project series was renamed, it was called Metal Gear Solid, and the target was the Metal Gear Solid series developed by Hideo Kojima.

Among them, Yasuo's skin is based on Sam and Raiden from Metal Gear Rising.

At the same time, it’s not just games, it also includes movies and TV shows. For example, Jess the Gentleman is based on the famous 007, and Star Wars Yi is also based on the Star Wars series.

But for Chen Xu in this world, there are not so many things.

The first series of skins launched are the skins of the"Warcraft" series.

As for the latter, it can be linked with games launched in the future.

At the same time, as long as the skin's attack, skills, and return effects are done well, you won't have to worry about not being able to sell them.

"Hey, Mr. Chen, does this skin store not sell it?"Yang Xin searched the store and discovered something.

"Well, the current trial version does not have any store content."Chen Xu nodded and said

"So can this skin be transferred to the official version? Yang Xin asked curiously

"This will be available to every player after completing the novice reward."Chen Xu smiled and explained to Yang Xin

"That's it!"Yang Xin suddenly realized.

As for the game's mall system, this is the core profit area.

Although it is decided that all heroes are free, and rune talents can be used directly.

But there are still gold coins and coupons reserved in the game. If you use coupons Needless to say, they are used to buy skins.

As for gold coins, they were mainly used to buy heroes and runes in the previous life. After the runes were cancelled, the use value of gold coins was basically only to buy heroes. In the previous life, for some For old players, gold coins are basically useless.

Because the runes have been cancelled, there is no need to buy rune pages and match various runes.

At the same time, the heroes have long been all heroes.

So later"League of Legends" also simply Gold coins were canceled and replaced by blue essence.

However, for some new players, the way to obtain heroes is more difficult than before.

Because essences are not given in normal games, only upgrades and opening boxes are available. The hero fragments are then decomposed before the essence can be obtained.

Therefore, Chen Xu did not cancel the setting of gold coins.

Instead, he set up the recovery of gold coins.

In the game, players win the first victory of the day, normal games, and After completing daily tasks, you can get a certain number of gold coins, but there is an upper limit for the gold coins you can obtain every day. The gold coins obtained can be used by players to purchase decorative items in the mall, such as avatars, guard skins, and even some hero skins, just like before. The same as"Three Kingdoms".

Including some skins, which can only be obtained with gold coins.

At the same time, players can also use gold coins to purchase boxes every week and then open them.

Through the boxes, some rare skins can be produced that can only be purchased with coupons.

Of course, the probability is After calculation, it is impossible to get all the skins by opening the box, even for the European Emperor.

In addition, gold coins can be used to replace heroes in the Brawl and random hero modes that will be launched later, with a maximum limit of 5 times. The number of gold coins is doubled every time it is replaced.

In short, it is to enhance the effect of gold coins in the game. At the same time, there is a reasonable mechanism. The player's gold coin output is also calculated, so it will not have a big impact on the game's income.

At the same time It can also give part of the profits to players, so that they can better stay in the game and feel that their account has been cultivated and cherished.

While Yang Xin was admiring the skin, three girls, Chen Qingzhu and Han Yue, were on the other side. , also should have cleared a level in the novice tutorial, and received a skin of Galen.

Well, in fact, it is not just Galen.

Including the skins rewarded to novices later, Chen Xu chose several heroes that are relatively simple and easy to understand..

The main purpose is to allow novice players to get in touch with and understand it first.

After all, with the skin, most players will have a try-hard mentality.

"Let's play a game of human versus computer first, unlock the matching function, and then compete with others."Yang Xin made a suggestion

"OK, this game seems quite interesting!"Chen Qingzhu nodded.

"Yes, unlike"Warcraft", there are so many units that I can't operate at all."Zhao Shan also nodded.

"Wait, can you let me play Garen? I want to see the skin."Han Yue said

"Mr. Chen, we still have one person left. Do you want to come with us?"Yang Xin turned to look at Chen Xu

"Forget it, I just want you to play, and there's no room left. If I play, I have to go upstairs, which is really troublesome."Chen Xu shook his hand and said with a smile.

Seeing that Chen Xu didn't come, Yang Xin was a little regretful, but he quickly paid attention to playing the game again.

Several people discussed what heroes to play later, and then clicked to match the human-machine button.
