I want to make a game

Looking at his son whose expression was constantly changing, Liu Weihua's gentle voice sounded, "Accept your own ordinaryness and accept the ordinaryness of those around you. There is also wonderfulness in the ordinary. Discover the wonderfulness in the ordinary, and you can live a wonderful life."

Ordinary! Yes, I used to be an ordinary person. When I was ordinary, I tried to be an extraordinary legend. In the end, I failed miserably and everyone betrayed me. But now, I am extraordinary.

The most important thing about games is not software development, not hardware support, but creativity! Creativity drives people to continuously develop better software, stronger hardware, 16-bit computers, 32-bit computers, home consoles, and the Internet.

It all comes into being as people's needs continue to improve. No one ever develops something that people don't need for no reason.

Pokémon, King of Fighters, Three Kingdoms, Dinosaur Fight, Ultimate Racing, Heroes of Invincibility, CS, Red Alert, StarCraft, Warcraft, World of Warcraft...

"Dad, I am extraordinary!"

Looking at the eyes burning with dreams, Liu Weihua smiled happily, "Of course you are extraordinary. You were the number one scholar in Lucheng at the age of 16."

...

"Why did you suddenly decide to go to Japan? How else should you study in Lucheng for two years before going to Japan?" Although Zhao Ying is usually very strong at home, she still can't help but worry about such a big issue.

"Don't just listen and don't speak. Your son is going to fly overseas, and you still act like a normal person!" He couldn't help but slap Liu Weihua on the back.

"It doesn't matter, I'll send him there then. Boys always have to go out and see the world, so that they can become upright men in the future..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Ying slapped her again, "I didn't see you going out to make a living in the first place. You just study every day, study, study, study, look at how you are ostracized in the work unit! Haolai is also a good person

The top leader in the bureau, you can’t even suppress the people below you!”

Liu Weihua disagreed.

"There's nothing that can't be suppressed. When you're working with colleagues, just say a few words if you want to talk. If you can't, don't treat them as enemies."

Listening to the two people's bickering, Liu Zhiyuan's still uneasy heart suddenly calmed down. It was still a familiar smell and a familiar scene. After the meal, Liu Zhiyuan returned to his room and sat down at the desk.

"It's 1985 now. Dragon Quest was released in 1986 and should be in the development stage now. The Legend of Zelda was released in 1987, no!" He shook his head a few times and muttered to himself.

Muttering, "I think these are useless. I don't have enough funds, enough developers, and time to develop these epoch-making games. No matter how creative and representative they are, it's too late." Liu Zhiyuan muttered.

He scratched his head in distress and kept writing and drawing without any rules.

Pokémon, that is, Pokémon, Pikachu, this one won’t work either! The success of this game with the highest value in the world is due to countless reasons. In terms of the level of innovation of the game, in this era of frequent masterpieces, it is not the most popular.

The outstanding one. However, an electric mouse alone is worth more than 90 billion U.S. dollars. Counting many other elf pets, the four words "Pokémon" are worth at least 100 billion! You can't give up no matter what.

But don't be anxious, rushing to take action will only ruin it.

Liu Zhiyuan took a brand new piece of draft paper, hesitated for a moment, and wrote the words "Pokémon" on the top of the draft paper: "This game was first released in February 1996. There are still 10 years left. In these 10 years,

No! Within 5 years, enough funds must be earned within 5 years. There must be a stable development team to develop this game. Moreover, the promotion of the game is also crucial. Even if Nintendo was full of expectations for this game, I am afraid they would not have thought of it.

These four words have such terrifying value! In other words, if I use the promotion methods of later generations, then! I can create Pokémon worth more than 100 billion! This is my first pot of gold!"

"Moreover, I can't just look at it. 8-bit machines, 16-bit machines, and 32-bit home consoles, these cassette and disk game consoles are updated too fast, not to mention the incompatibility of various drivers, resulting in game manufacturers can only operate on one console.

Publishing your own games, of course, only releasing the games on a certain console is also related to the alignment of these major software manufacturers."

"I will definitely not be able to catch up with the 8-bit game console. For the 16-bit game console, Sega's MD should already be developing it by this time. With my current conditions, even if I continue to sell ideas and games in the past few years to get enough conditions, I'm afraid that by then

Now we are facing a 32-bit host!"

If 8-bit consoles let people know that games can be played this way, then 16-bit consoles tell everyone that the graphics of games can be so exquisite that people are constantly looking forward to whether it can be better. The emergence of 32-bit consoles is the perfect response.

Beyond people's expectations, it turns out that games can be as gorgeous as blockbuster movies.

"The first 32-bit computer was the 3DO developed by Panasonic, but the ones that really influenced the world were Sega's Saturn and Sony's PS. Going head-on with a 32-bit console with a 16-bit console is undoubtedly asking for death! The most important thing is

Yes, although they were once brilliant, it was the Internet that ultimately became king!"

"In the console era, the best I could do was catch the last train, and I spent too much energy and lost some financial resources. Even if consoles have a big market in later generations, this market is nothing compared to those online online games.

Console games are not as fun as computer games. On the contrary, console games can even crush computer games in many aspects. But a single linkage can make a difference. The game with the most players in the world will always be an online game, and the game with the hottest topics in the world will always be

It is a competitive game, and it has even created a big scene that can be on the Olympic stage."

"The DOTA2TI event based on the Warcraft system has a bonus of even more than 100 million yuan, and League of Legends supports countless industries. Just by collecting point cards, it has supported giant games such as World of Warcraft and Westward Journey. So,

For the Internet, I have to be first class, preferably alone!”

Then, he took the piece of scratch paper with messy writing on it, "Short! Flat! Fast!" The production cycle is short, the sales period is stable, and the funds are withdrawn quickly.

"My first game must have these characteristics, and I have to add another one, which is cheap! Because I definitely won't have a lot of funds, so if I circle it this way, the scope will be much smaller..."

...

"Zhiyuan, Zhiyuan. Wake up, have some breakfast and go back to bed."

Liu Zhiyuan trembled and suddenly raised his head.

"call..."

Looking at the decoration style of the 1980s around him, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I was really afraid that it was just a dream before!"
