Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Latest website: Not long after Wu Zhicheng got the milk tea, a young man with curly hair found him.

"Hello, my name is Xi Hao, I am the person in charge of the administrative department here, and will also help the designers to do development planning, budgeting, progress reminders, etc. In short, you can think of me as your butler at work ', You can find me anything. "

"I will take you to the work station first to familiarize yourself with the situation of the entire incubation base."

Wu Zhicheng hurriedly stood up and shook hands with Xi Hao: "Okay, I'm glad to be fortunate to be here. I'll take care of you in the future."

Xi Hao smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be too cautious, it will be your own family in the future. I and other employees in the administrative department have also been employed for a long time, and they are all newcomers."

"Besides, the administrative department of the incubation base is not a manager, but a server. You are responsible for creativity, we are responsible for service, and your work is much more important than ours."

The two went to the office area while chatting.

In order to allow the entire incubation base to function normally, Qiu Hong also recruited during this time in addition to finding office space.

If you send your resume directly to social recruiting, the efficiency is too low, so Qiu Hong used a little relationship in the Imperial City game circle and screened a group of people through internal interpolation.

Xi Hao has more than four years of game development experience and served as the chief executive officer of a small company. His ability in all aspects is not top, but it is definitely more than enough to meet general projects.

Moreover, although Xi Hao lacks spirituality in game design, it has a prominent advantage of being conscientious, careful and very responsible for the work.

Therefore, after considering Qiu Hong, he felt that Xi Hao was a good candidate, and he decided to let him be responsible for maintaining the normal operation of the entire incubation base.

The administrative department of the incubation base is not just for administration, but more like a hodgepodge.

There are special financial, legal, and art needs groups, as well as special staff responsible for planning and supervising the development schedule.

In short, Qiu Hong previously believed that the supporting departments that independent game producers lack are all equipped.

Although there are not many administrative departments in the entire incubation base, there are only more than a dozen people. Although the sparrows are all small and full-fledged, and they are full-time professionals, they are all professionals with certain experience in the relevant fields.

Xi Hao brought Wu Zhicheng to a window station in the office area: "This is your station in the future, and the badge is still in production. It should be available soon."

"This is a worker's card. You can enter the office directly by swiping your card at the first floor, so you don't need to register again."

"The position of our administration department by the window over there. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can always contact us."

"In the morning, you will first import all the data and resources on your computer to the office computer here. By the way, follow this paper to open the internal communication account and project management authority."

"In the afternoon, we have a small meeting to briefly talk about the game you are doing, which is convenient for us to estimate the construction period, formulate a development plan, and find a suitable artist."

Xi Hao quickly introduced all the precautions on the side of the incubation space.

It is similar to the formal employment of a company, except that the work content and work flow are different.

After Xi Hao left, Wu Zhicheng turned on the office computer in front of him.

This batch of office computers is still provided by the ROF installation, and the entire batch of express delivery from Jingzhou to the Imperial Capital comes directly, but it is not a ROF custom chassis, and there is no ROF logo on the chassis.

Wu Zhicheng has never used ROF to install the machine, so I did not think too much, just thought it was a high-end assembly machine purchased by the incubation base.

After booting, Wu Zhicheng copied the relevant data of "Ink and Cloud Smoke" to this office computer, logged into the official development background, and then opened the internal communication account and project management authority as Xi Hao told him.

Wu Zhicheng had no previous experience of working in a game company. I do n’t know that these are the standard processes of the game company. I feel very new.

"Huh, this computer is well configured."

Wu Zhicheng was a little surprised. The computer configuration he used before was not bad. He bought it by selling iron, but after all, the budget was limited and he paid more attention to cost performance.

And this computer is a model of pursuing the ultimate high-end configuration. After a glance at the configuration, Wu Zhicheng is simply envious.

Including the ergonomic desks and chairs, as well as the bar that provides unlimited drinks and milk tea, and other related facilities, he was all very satisfied. The working environment is simply different.

In this relaxed working atmosphere, Wu Zhicheng began to sort out the contents of "Ink and Smoke", including the expected number of levels, boss battle design, painting style, etc., so as to avoid asking questions during the afternoon meeting. Joke in front of you.

...

Noon meals are all provided by the fish take-out nearby.

At present, Moyu has taken out of Handong Province, and has opened some stores in first-tier cities such as the Imperial Capital and the Modu.

Qiu Hong chose the incubation base here. One very important reason is that there is a fish takeout store nearby, which can easily solve the problem of eating.

Wu Zhicheng ate and satiated, drinking milk tea while burping, thinking about what a fairy working environment this is!

Before, he was a bit hesitant about whether to come here to work. On the one hand, he felt that the four subway stations would be troublesome, on the other hand, he was worried that he would not be free.

But now seeing this kind of working environment, Wu Zhi has only one idea: Is this heaven?

In the afternoon, Xi Hao, Wu Zhicheng and three other administrative staff met together.

Xi Hao briefly introduced the roles of these three people: one is responsible for resource statistics, schedule planning and development node reminders, one is responsible for the presentation and communication of art resource requirements, and one is responsible for financial reimbursement, data collection and printing, etc. Other jobs.

This is Qiu Hong's group supporting framework for the incubation base after careful consideration.

The entire incubation base has three groups like this, and each group can be responsible for 4 to 6 independent game projects.

In other words, the entire incubation base can incubate 12 to 18 independent game projects at the same time under the most efficient conditions, ensuring that these game projects receive the most complete support.

The three people in the group have a clear division of labor. Basically, they are all responsible for the content of the independent game except for the gameplay design and specific production.

As the person in charge, Xi Hao must understand all independent game projects, and also plan and supervise the work tasks of all teams.

Wu Zhicheng was a little nervous.

Because he has been at home since starting an independent game, and communication with others has become very few, especially this kind of work communication is almost no more.

Now facing the four people who take notes with paper and pen in earnest, there is a little sense of stage fright.

However, Wu Zhicheng quickly adjusted his mind and began to introduce the basic situation of "Ink and Wash".

"" Ink and Smoke "is a horizontal action game. I currently plan a total of 10 levels, each of which has unique bosses and mobs ...

Wu Zhicheng still gave a brief introduction to the contents of Qiu Hong.

The four people on the opposite side nodded while silently recording.

Although they have mastered some basic information about Ink and Cloud Smoke, it is clearer to listen to the designer's own words ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Xi Hao did not interrupt Wu Zhicheng, but waited for him to finish all in one breath Before asking your own question.

"The approximate duration of the game, is there a plan?" Xi Hao asked.

Wu Zhicheng froze for a moment: "Uh ... I haven't considered this issue yet."

Xi Hao nodded and explained: "Although you said that there will be ten levels in the game, this is a relatively general concept. A 10-minute pass is also a level, and a 2-hour pass can also be a level."

"In order to ensure the game content and fully take care of the player's game experience, we still plan the game time first, and then adjust the specific planning of the level through the game time."

"Generally speaking, like this independent horizontal version of the game, the better one-week game duration is 8 ~ 12 hours, it should not be too long or too short."

"My suggestion is that the standard game flow duration can be set at around 10 hours, and the overall level should follow the principle from easy to difficult, so the level of the later level should be longer."
