Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

"But Mr. Chen, I’m not majoring in game design!"Han Yue was a little moved, but also a little nervous.

"This is not a problem."Chen Xu shook his head.

Can't you make games if you are not a professional?

Of course not.

There are even many people in the game industry who are not professionals.

Not just in this world, but also in previous lives.

Known as the King of Great Britain, he created"Genesis" series, as well as the first hugely successful MMORPG Ultima Online, and Richard Garrett, who became the sixth person to board a space tourist.

As well as working at Oracle, he only came into contact with video games in his thirties and made the first Hidetaka Miyazaki who played a game.

And Hideo Kojima, who wanted to be a director at first and then came to the game field to make stealth games shine.

None of them are so-called professionals.

In Chen Xu’s opinion, this is not The key is whether they have a talent in this area.

So let them write an analysis paper on their design manuscript for the updated version of"Soul Knight" to analyze the content in the updated version and why it should be added. What is the use of that content to players?

Basically, it can see their thinking logic on game design.

Regarding the reason proposed by Chen Xu, everyone's emotions are very high.

Although everyone is not Game design, but those who can join Fengyun Games all have one common characteristic.

That is, they all have a very strong love for games.

Being able to join a subsequent game development and personally create interesting games is obviously That's a very attractive thing

………………

On the second day, everyone handed over their own analysis papers to Chen Xu.

After reading them one by one, Chen Xu's brows knitted together unconsciously, and then relaxed again.

To be honest, Chen Xu was not very satisfied with the content of the analysis.

But it’s actually to be expected.

But after seeing the final analysis report from Zhao Shan, Chen Xu couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Because he saw something different.

For example, there is a racing mode with a certain sense of confrontation, there is also an added active gift character experience card, and an endless mode.

These contents, such as the analysis and answers given by Han Yue and Wang Yong, all add to the content of the game, thereby cultivating players' stickiness and keeping the game active.

But Zhao Shan gave a different answer.

That is to reasonably increase the profit curve of the game.

This is what surprised Chen Xu.

If Han Yue and the others saw the first floor, then what Zhao Shan saw was the third floor.

Understanding game modes and game mechanics, and not creating profit conditions without destroying the balance of the game, is a factor that every qualified game designer must possess.

It might be a bit cheesy, but it's the truth.

Whether in this world or in previous lives, profit is very important.

Because there is profit, we can keep the product alive and continue to develop new products.

For example,"Black Myth: Wukong" became a hit by recruiting talents through a live demonstration.

But who knew that the manufacturer that focused on developing this game actually had a mobile game to provide cash milk.

Moreover, it also accepted the Angel Wheel from Hero Interactive Entertainment, so it had enough capital to develop a game of this scale.

Looking at one of Zhao Shan's analysis papers, Chen Xu nodded slightly, then put a tick on the back with a marker.

The other content analysis is still a little one-sided, but it is not too important.

These things can basically be understood as long as they are related to one or two product projects.

Zhao Shan has basically satisfied Chen Xu's current requirements.

As for the subsequent quality development, it can be cultivated slowly.

Chen Xu spoke in the work group and also reminded the other three people, saying that the company would develop slowly in the future.

Everyone must also continue to learn and make progress in their respective positions, so that they can keep up with the company's progress.

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu also sent a big red envelope to everyone.

Because the main development work of"Vitality Knight" was basically completed by Chen Xu alone.

Therefore, there is no such thing as team dividends like in the industry.

However, Chen Xu still gave everyone a bonus to motivate employees.

After all, you can’t talk about dreams all the time, and there are no guarantees in daily life. Who will talk to you about dreams?

After finishing this piece, Chen Xu lay on the armchair and turned on the system.

《It has been almost a month since"Vitality Knight" was launched. Adding in the points accumulated in"Undertale", Chen Xu has now accumulated a total of 3 million points.

Just before developing the next game, open a gashapon to improve your own level.

After all, although he has a game audit concept that transcends this world in his mind, he is still a little lacking in branching details.

There is also the PC platform and the VR platform in the future. If you want to create more high-quality games, you must have sufficient quality.

After entering the system, there is nothing much to say.

Open the gashapon directly and start with 30 consecutive draws of 10 times.

A large string of golden light, Chen Xu only looked at the harvest after it was over.

51 books on art and action.

69 volumes of level design and numerical values.

27 books on music and sound effects.

43 books on lens and plot design.

In addition, there are a total of 30 memory potions, including 9 bottles for 12 hours and 21 bottles for 6 hours.

There are props with special functions as before, but this time one was not drawn.

"Um? Is it like ordinary mobile games, the probability of shipment is relatively high at the beginning?"Chen Xu used all the books and was a little curious in his heart.

As for his face being too dark?

He is not capable!
