I! Game Designer! The Boss Cried At The Loss At The Beginning!
011 Our Penguin Games Is Your Best Destination!
"Mr. Lin! Good news! Great news!"
"Our game sold!"
Lin Keke, who looked hopeless and whose eyes had lost their luster, had just stepped through the door of the company.
When he saw Chen Yurou holding a thick stack of documents in her arms, she excitedly greeted her.
The smile on his face was bright and his tone was even more excited!
"We got off to a good start! In just one night, "The Sledgehammer" sold more than 10,000 copies, and we are about to make our money back!"
Oh...then what?
Lin Keke was expressionless and didn't say anything.
He just silently came to the window of the office and took a look downstairs.
Is the floor high?
Can you fall to death?
I don’t want to live a little bit.
Seeing that Lin Keke was not as happy as expected, Chen Yurou was stunned for a moment.
Then he seemed to understand something, and he patted his head in annoyance and said apologetically.
"That's right! Mr. Lin, I have to apologize to you!"
"Yesterday, when you said that this game has a unique style and it has boundless potential to become a hit, I was still skeptical."
"But now it seems that you are really discerning and your judgment on the market is quite accurate!"
Logically speaking.
The person involved will definitely be very happy to be complimented by someone else's rainbow fart.
But Lin Keke is different.
When I think of my million-dollar rebate, I grow wings and fly away.
Her little face turned into a ball of pain, and she was so heartbroken.
Even such a low-quality and abstract "Sledgehammer" can make money...
So who is losing money in this game industry?
...
"Say it again! I...our game is losing money?!"
It was also the same time.
Tianfu City, Tenda Game Building!
Snapped--! !
With a roar, the sales summary table was slammed on the table.
This dull sound made the man next to the desk shrink his neck.
Leaning on the boss's chair was a slightly bald middle-aged man with a beer belly.
It is Ye Shan, the project director of the Penguin Game Department under Tenda!
"Adventure Land! Such a popular IP! A few years ago, it was a hit game that dominated Xunyou's best-selling list for half a year!"
"Why did the sequel turn into such a bird-like appearance?"
"Let a mentally retarded game about climbing mountains with a hammer cost you several times your sales?"
When I think of the expressionless guy sitting in the jar, he seems to be mocking the entire game market.
Ye Shan's face was hard to see.
"Jiang He, some of my colleagues said before that there was something wrong with your thinking and that you had exhausted your talent as a Jiang He. I didn't believe it."
"result..."
Snapped! !
He slammed the table again.
"I gave you such an important IP so that you can achieve greater glory, and you report this result to me?"
The project director's voice was close to a roar.
The man standing across from the desk, being yelled at, seemed to want to refute, but hesitated.
In the end I could only smile bitterly.
It is true that the once popular "Adventure Continent" was developed by him.
And he became famous in one fell swoop with this work and became a recognized genius designer in the industry.
but!
Jiang He is not someone who likes to sit back and rest on his laurels!
After becoming famous in Adventureland, he immediately conceived a project and prepared to launch a brand new adventure game in another world.
But this apparently reasonable request was ruthlessly rejected by the boss and leader!
The reason is also very simple, that is——
If you just let the sequels of popular IPs go unreleased, why are you working on these projects that are very risky and easy to lose money?
Ever since.
An endless nightmare begins!
The project director, who is obsessed with money and extremely greedy, after seeing the success of Adventureland.
Not only did he have to work hard to produce a sequel, but he also personally went to work and drastically "reform" the content of the game!
The first is to forcibly add a krypton gold system to this buyout game and stuff in a large number of in-app purchases.
What's even more excessive is still.
All the characters originally unlocked in the plot were changed to be obtained by drawing cards, and most of the profits from the treasure chests that originally encouraged players to explore were cut off. Even the maps became unlockable with the first deposit!
Even the character's originally gorgeous special effects couldn't escape its clutches.
They were all thrown into the game mall, with various explicit hints for players to pay!
That's why.
The failure of "Adventureland 2" had long been expected by Jiang He.
But now that he has a family, a wife and children, he can only be forced to bow to life and swallow his anger.
"This is my dereliction of duty, I'm sorry, Mr. Ye."
He humbly apologized, but there wasn't much emotion in his eyes.
Perhaps it has long been numb.
"Then what do we do now?"
"How about speeding up the update and releasing the DLC in advance to save it?"
After his anger was almost gone, Ye Shan waved his hand impatiently.
"never mind."
"I have a more important task for you now."
He seemed to feel the confusion in the other person's eyes.
Ye Shan took a sip of tea and continued.
"The market response of "The Sledgehammer" has been very good, and the production cost is not high... It is a good learning object, isn't it?"
As if he understood something, Jiang He was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly.
Remembering that this small game that became popular overnight was only priced at five yuan and did not have any in-app purchases, Ye Shan scoffed.
Please!
What's the difference between this and giving it away for free?
Are you a gamer or a philanthropist?
If he were allowed to run this "Sledgehammer" game, he would 100% launch these contents, such as——
Krypton gold will reward you with the opportunity to resurrect. The first deposit unlocks the archive function. You can get some skins for the hammer and the protagonist. Finally, you can add a lottery pet or something...
Of course, the character card pool is also essential.
Different protagonists are put in it, with different abilities and talents, such as enhanced jumping ability, the ability to save at any time, etc.
"It can be seen that the designer of this "Sledgehammer" is still a child and has never thought about making money."
Looking at Jiang He's leaving figure, Ye Shan rubbed his chin and said.
"Go to the Human Resources Department and ask a colleague to contact this designer named Yu Luo."
"He has a good talent, but there is something wrong with his thinking... He is not suitable for today's game market."
“But it’s still worth cultivating.”
"Staying in a small workshop like Baijin is doomed to have no future."
"We at Penguin Games are the best home for this child."

PS:
Please give me flowers for the new book. Please give me reviews and all the data. I’m tired. I really don’t want to cut anymore.
