Number One Game Designer

The end of January basically means that the Spring Festival has entered the countdown.

In Fang Xi’s previous life, he heard a saying from the online game Sand Sculpture: the colder the place, the stronger the taste of the New Year. The supporting argument is that ancient China was colder than modern times. Even Guangdong can see snowflakes in ancient times. , so the customs of celebrating the New Year at that time had something to do with snow. Also because of the shortage of food in winter, a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner is very valuable during the Chinese New Year.

However, after the modern age, the climate is getting warmer, the supplies are abundant, and vegetables in greenhouses, etc. have made the daily life of modern people as long as they want to, which is similar to the New Year. The only remaining uncontrollable factor is probably the snow in the north. Can give a little "ah, the year is coming to an end" feeling.

Fang Xi smiled wryly and tapped his swollen head, which was a little swollen from writing all morning. He just took a rest and was in a daze when he saw the snow falling. Tired, thinking of this, Fang Xi pressed the landline and shouted:

"Xiao Lan, make me a cup of coffee and come in."

Then continue to immerse yourself in writing. After a while, a cup of hot water was placed on Fang Xi's table. Fang Xi frowned. He needed the cocaine in the coffee to refresh himself, not a cup of plain water. He raised his head and said angrily:

"Didn't I say I want coffee...Wanqi, why are you?"

Standing at the table and leaning over to see what Fang Xi wrote, Lu Wanqi pulled a strand of hair away from her ears and said:

"Don't bully Xiaolan all the time. You've already promoted her to be an administrator, so don't torment her. How can she arrange her subordinates when you order her around all day long?"

Fang Xi smiled apologetically: "I'm used to it, and I can't remember these things when I'm busy, so you can talk to her later and ask her to hire me a secretary."

Lu Wanqi bit her lips when she heard the words, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Next time you can call me for something like this..."

Fang Xi asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"

The courage that Lu Wanqi had worked up with great difficulty disappeared in an instant:

"It's nothing...... My mother said that I will cook and entertain you at my house next week. Let me invite you. Will you go?"

"Go, definitely go, we must go." Fang Xi nodded and agreed: "Next week will be the Chinese New Year, will it be New Year's Eve? Is it not too good?"

"Seven days later, it will be the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. What are you thinking about!" Lu Wanqi exclaimed angrily, and turned around to leave the broken office, but stopped when she thought of something: "Auntie and uncle are back?"

Fang Xi knew that she was referring to his parents who had been out to play for two months, so he silently calculated the date and replied:

"Not yet, but it's coming soon. It should be the plane for these two days." Looking at Lu Wanqi's expression, Fang Xi asked like a ghost: "Will you pick up the plane with me then? Well...with a salary of."

Lu Wanqi gave Fang Xi a hard look, then closed the door, and a word "OK" wafted through the crack of the door with the wind.

For many people, the end of the year is also a time to focus on performance, such as anchors.

The same is true of Afeng, a boy who teases fish.

Recently, he has almost become Fang Xi's die-hard fan, because "Killing Planet" will always release a version update every two weeks in Fang Xi's hands, and the current "Killing Planet" is quite different from the original appearance. .

Except for gunfights and randomness, these two selling points have not changed, there are more characters to choose from, and the characters are equipped with skills. Fang Xi has referred to the previous "Team Fortress" and "Overwatch" for this point, and he still considers the support Four players form a team, so there are four positions: meat shield, output, support, and treatment. Each position provides two heroes for players to choose from.

And the map is no longer a simple endless mode, the general direction has been updated into a mode of three major levels, each of which is divided into five smaller levels.

After several versions of updates, Fang Xi finally made the roguelike mode map he envisioned before. Each player can equip three active skills and one passive skill. When entering the arena, only two skills can be selected. Two sockets will drop randomly during the game.

Similarly, bosses and elites have a variety of specialties. Each boss is randomly generated at the end of the level. Players can't predict what kind of boss they will encounter.

In this way, the freedom is given to the players, and the players have also played the game well, equipped with a meat shield with healing skills? Attacking the output of additional controls? A passive monk nurse with all skills? It's all your choice.

The substantial content of the game has allowed young Afeng to spend half of his live broadcast time in these two months. For an anchor like him who needs to play games every day, a full, interesting and playable game, he is willing to play, and the audience is also willing to play. It's great to watch the game.

And now he is writing game suggestions to Fang Xi under the supervision of the audience in the live broadcast room:

"Respected Teacher Fang, as a loyal player of your "Killing Planet", I sincerely give you some suggestions after exploring the game for more than 400 hours. I hope you can open the mod making function of the game. My little one and I My partner has a lot of cool ideas about "Killing Planet", but none of them can be realized, I want to tell you how much we like this game, and we also hope that this simple game can become better."

"Okay, okay, I'm done." After clicking send, Afeng closed the web page and shouted:

"Then let's start today's killing journey! It's still the same, randomly select three water friends from the barrage to form a team, come quickly if you have good skills, and the anchor can take a position. Okay, let's start now, those who want to participate Just text 1111!"

..........

Turn your gaze back to Haifang City, where the headquarters of Yinling Games is located.

Lu Tao looked at the two stubborn young men who were determined to leave the job, and couldn't help pulling at his few remaining hair.

"So you're here to say goodbye to me?"

The two young men looked at each other, the tall one nodded and said:

"Director Lu, we are very grateful for the company's cultivation of us, so we have done everything the company wants to know about Hongyi, no, you are our teacher, we shouldn't hide it from you, we are I feel that making games is to make what we like, we stayed with Hongyi for two months, and we like their people and environment, Hongyi also told us that we will accept the two of us to go back and continue to improve the game in the R\u0026D department.”

Lu Tao nodded: "Say hello to Fang Xi on behalf of me, and tell him that the two of you are not honest, but it's not up to me to decide. I don't know where you are going, so don't bother." Then tell others, I will tell the personnel about resignation, and I will leave after I get the year-end bonus."

The two young men looked at each other again, and then bowed to Lu Tao together:

"Thank you, Teacher Lu."
