Time Travel: 2014

According to the prediction given by the AppStore personal developer account background.

"Hill Climb Racing" is likely to have more than 100,000 active users on its first day.

Although the game "Hill Climb Racing" has only been online for a few hours.

But the number of downloads has already reached five million. According to this trend, it is appropriate for the number of effective downloads to exceed 10 million on the first day in the world.

Isn’t it normal to have more than 100,000 daily active users among 10 million players?

(Of course, this is just a game. If it is some forum-type apps, although the number of user downloads may be high, the number of user activities may not be high)

In fact, as long as a game is not too stretched or some features are too discouraging, the number of active users on the first day cannot be low.

Lin Hui believes that based on the design level of the game "Hill Climb Racing", the number of active users on the first day can be conservatively estimated to reach more than three million.

It's not that Lin Hui is blindly confident, Lin Hui's confidence is well-founded.

Because Lin Hui used the engineering files of the previous game "Hill Climb Racing 2" for development.

Although the picture quality of "Hill Climb Racing" actually released by Lin Hui is still the same as that of the original "Hill Climb Racing" in the previous life.

But in terms of content, it is developed as much as possible in the direction of "Hill Climb Racing 2" in the previous life.

The playability of the previous game "Hill Climb Racing 2" was quite high.

"Hill Climb Racing 2" involves online factors that Lin Hui did not introduce.

Lin Hui basically introduced other gameplay methods that did not involve online play into the game he reproduced.

Lin Hui also introduced an achievement system. This is not the first time Lin Hui has introduced an achievement system in game development.

When developing "Life Restart Simulator", Lin Hui introduced an achievement system into the game.

All in all, Lin Hui is trying to enrich the connotation of the game to the maximum extent and explore the playability of the game while conforming to his inherited game design [transportation] concept as much as possible.

I believe players can appreciate Lin Hui’s good intentions.

At almost 6pm on the 20th, Lin Hui received another official notification from the AppStore:

"Congratulations to you, an extraordinary and outstanding developer, the game "Hill Climb Racing" you developed has successfully exceeded 10 million (effective) downloads worldwide."

To be honest, this download speed is much faster than the download speed of "FLAPPY BIRD" that Lin Hui previously launched.

This has a lot to do with the game's free download strategy, and it also has a lot to do with the launch time Lin Hui chose this time.

"Hill Climb Racing" will be launched on Saturday afternoon in China.

At this time, many potential game audiences are also relatively free, and many people have time to play games.

In addition, according to the time difference, BJ time is Saturday afternoon, and New York/New York time (East Coast of the United States) is still early morning, but Los Angeles time (West Coast of the United States) is Saturday morning.

In other words, even if there is a time difference, Lin Hui's choice of launch time this time can at least take into account the normal daily routine of half of the overseas player audience.

In any case, the launch time of "Hill Climb Racing" is much more reasonable than the last time "FLAPPY BIRD" was launched.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

Everything is moving towards positive feedback, now it just depends on the players’ feedback.

Lin Hui noticed that many people in his circle of friends were sharing the game "Hill Climb Racing".

However, it cannot be said that this game is very popular among players.

Lin Hui developed the game "Hill Climb Racing" using the project files of "Hill Climb Racing 2"

There is a small function in "Hill Climb Racing 2". Every three hours, you have the opportunity to watch an advertisement to upgrade car components.

But Lin Hui has no habit of inserting advertisements into games.

Therefore, this function was changed by Lin Gray Mo to choose to share the game to Moments or private messages to friends every 3 hours.

There is a certain probability of getting an opportunity to upgrade car components.

So now although similar sharing appears in the circle of friends.

Lin Hui couldn't tell whether the user shared it because he really liked it or if it was just a bunch of big pig hooves sharing it to complete the task.

But no matter what, there are indeed many people sharing it.

Lin Hui also received many shares from classmates.

Lin Hui suddenly thought of a question.

He couldn't tell whether these players were sincerely sharing.

Aren’t other users just as stupid and unable to tell whether these people are sincerely sharing or have some purpose?

Wouldn't that be wonderful?

A phenomenal little game seems to be born!

Lin Hui's prediction seemed to be good.

"Hill Climb Racing" is indeed showing signs of becoming more and more popular.

Not long after, Lin Hui noticed that their high school class group was also discussing the game "Hill Climb Racing".

Such game-related topics are basically started by He Siyuan.

He Siyuan can be regarded as a senior game explorer in Lin Hui's class.

Although He Siyuan often plays small games, his grades have always been very good. Lin Hui remembers that this buddy went to Shuimu to study fine instruments in his previous life.

I don’t know if this guy will still make the same choice in this time and space.

But this is not something Lin Hui should worry about. Everyone has a different life trajectory.

Lin Hui looked through the message list in the class group.

As expected, the most popular news in the class was from He Siyuan:

"Hai Shen has released a new game called "Hill Climb Racing"...

[Screenshot][Screenshot][Screenshot] I find it quite interesting..."

Liu Yao: "After looking at the picture, it's indeed a game from Gray God! The painting style is still as sketchy as ever.

But to be honest, I'm a little tired of playing this kind of sand sculpture style game, so I'd better forget it...

Moreover, I am short of money recently, so I will support Huishen’s next game! "

He Siyuan: “This time is different, although the style of painting this time is the same as the previous games.

This time it’s a physics-based 2D racing video game with a lot of content. Anyway, I think it’s quite fun…”

Liu Yao: "In what sense is it fun? You also said that "FLAPPY BIRD" was quite fun last time?

The result is that it’s really a scam [beat] [beat]..."

He Siyuan: "FLAPPY BIRD is actually quite fun, but if you are a noob, who can you blame?"

And if you don’t think it’s fun, you don’t have to play it. Who makes you addicted to food? "

Liu Yao: "Who said I'm a loser? I can play to at least thirty points.

The Gray God himself has only reached more than 20 points. I am very strong, okay? "

He Siyuan: "Okay, okay, you are the most forceful, right? [Contempt] [Contempt]

Anyway, I think, no matter what, download it first, otherwise it will cost thirty to get on the bus after a while."

Liu Yao: "What do you mean [doubt] [doubt]"

He Siyuan: "Recently there is a limited discount. The original price is 30."

Liu Yao: "You said earlier that it would be free of charge. If you didn't say that, you must support it! I will download one when I go back."
