Number One Game Designer

If the original purpose of the game is to have fun.

Then the fun of a beta version of the game is even better. Finding bugs, fixing bugs, and making the whole game run better is a kind of fun in itself. So Fang Xi intends to share this fun with all players.

"So we are going to start the file deletion test?" Lu Wanqi looked at Fang Xi who was sitting across from him and talked about finding bugs, which is a pleasure in itself.

Fang Xi stopped talking and nodded:

"Of course, why not? Our lads have a week off and it's time to keep them busy. Although we have gone through the closed beta this week, the game is far from perfect. As a professional From the perspective of gamers, it is natural to think that the current game can be stable and bug-free, but for players, finely polishing every part and making a rough game humanized is the last step of the game.”

Lu Wanqi curled her lips: "What big talk, to put it bluntly, the current number of employees is too small, and there are not enough samples for testing."

Fang Xi rubbed his nose and didn't speak. Hongyi Games is now mainly divided into three major departments: R\u0026D, art and operation, which are respectively in charge of Tao Junyi, Qian Shasha and Liu Hai, but the total of the three teams is only 41. People, plus logistics, administrative personnel, etc., Hongyi is actually a small company with only a few people in their early fifties.

In terms of testing, it is the same as sampling in mathematics. No matter how professional your personnel are, the conclusions drawn from insufficient samples will not be reliable. So after fixing the bug for a week, Fang Xi said that everyone should come together .

During this week, the research and development department and the art collective had a long vacation, but the busy time of the operation department had just begun.

Because of the limited funds, Fang Xi's initial advertisements did not consider some large social media sites at all. Instead, following the principle of "encircling the city from the countryside", the small sites were basically filled with advertisements, which belonged to the basic The psoriasis advertisement that you can see when you click on it, even if you click the cross, you may not be able to close it. From this point of view, there is no integrity at all for small websites. As long as the playback time of the advertisement can be guaranteed, this A group of people can do anything, but this is exactly what Fang Xi needs now.

Just as Fang Xi and the operation department expected, in just three days, the promotional video of "Swallowing Heaven and Earth" released by Hongyi received a huge response.

Countless players are asking each other, where did this promotional CG come from? And what kind of game is the title "Swallowing Heaven and Earth"?

During this process, Hongyi Games also began to enter the field of vision of players.

In the Internet age, when eating melons, every netizen is Sherlock Holmes. At first, a game blogger reposted Hongyi’s game CG on Weibo, and then more players debated whether this was Hongyi’s CG or a foreign one stolen. The prosperous cultural industry in this world has also promoted the implementation of copyright laws, so unlike previous lives where you can abuse various movie and game CGs, if you are sure of theft and infringement, it is almost inevitable to go to court for compensation and then be blacklisted. sets of processes.

And then another well-informed blogger @游戏食品 stood up to endorse Hongyi. He posted: "The 15-second CG of Hongyi Games is by no means stolen. I have never seen anything similar to this CG in various foreign movies and game promotions. So for the time being, it can be regarded as the own CG of Hongyi Games’ own product "Swallowing Heaven and Earth". From my point of view, this CG is currently among the top in the world, at least one thousand dollars per frame."

With the endorsement of Weibo Big V, Hongyi Games has finally entered the player's field of vision, and then more related information about Hongyi Games has also been picked up. For example, Hongyi Games is already a relatively old company, but the scale has not been scaled up. big,

For example, Hongyi Games started out by making word games, and later produced galgame games, but life seems to be tight, and it doesn’t look like they have money to hire a big company to do CG, but according to Hongyi’s past works Looking at it, it is unlikely that this CG was produced by Hongyi Games itself. If Hongyi Games can make this level of CG themselves, they will definitely not know until now that players have been provided by various major companies. Okay, so the deeper you dig, the players are excited to find that there is more fog on Hongyi Games. The mysterious boss injected money? The boss bought a lottery and won the jackpot and dug out a foreign team? Foreign CG manufacturers backdoor listing in China?

In the back, it can be said that the rhythm is flying all over the sky. From Fang Xi's own perspective, his jaw may drop to the ground in shock.

In the midst of all the news, Shui Ran, the editor of the country's leading game media "GAME World", keenly noticed an unremarkable name on the official website of Hongyi Games: Fang Xi.

One day later, Fang Xi directly saw the capable editor of "GAME World" Shuiran at the company.

The Shuiran standing in front of Fang Xi is a bit different from the stunning beauty, but she can definitely be called an impressive woman. The capable little suit is a little heroic and also well complements the uneven figure. The single ponytail is paired with a flat bottom. The shoes are not aggressive but also exude a kind of sunshine vitality, which makes Fang Xi's first impression very good.

Fang Xi directly stretched out his tie to lead the way, and went to the reception room that the company used for the first time.

"Mr. Shuiran was able to arrive in Beiyang City so quickly. I am surprised. It is said that the 15-second CG that our company is impressive now can make you fly over and say that you want to interview me. I can't believe it."

Shui Ran quickly opened the black leather notebook in his hand, opened it, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Fang Xi. This is a clipping from the magazine "GAME World", which is the last issue of this magazine. The clipped content happened to be the report of Haifang University's graduation competition unit, and Fang Xi, the champion's name, naturally appeared in the report.

After handing the newspaper clipping to Fang Xi, Shuiran smiled gently and said in a calm tone:

"I've actually been paying attention to you since Mr. Fang won the championship at Haifang University. Haifang University has a graduation design competition unit every year, that is, every year there is a best graduate, but even in the past ten years or two Comparing the best graduates in the past ten years, Mr. Fang's talent is still the top among them, so I believe that Mr. Fang is always destined to be the group of people who will surprise everyone in the game industry."

Then he paused for a while to reflect what Fang Xi said just now, and then continued:

"You game producers invest in games, and we media people also invest in topical characters, and Mr. Fang is a potential stock that I am very optimistic about."

Fang Xi bowed his head in thought for a moment, then raised his head to Shui Ran with a big smile on his face.

"I understand. Teacher Shuiran has something to ask, but it's okay to say."
