Aiko's pursuit has always been more utilitarian.

All she wants is to be successful.

In academics, in life, and in her career, she hopes to be successful.

This is what she herself wishes most.

So when she decided that she would concentrate on developing games in the future, she kept trying to find a way to be more successful.

When she was confused, she felt that the game needed a lot of investment to be successful.

She didn't mind the need for a certain amount of accumulation before this, but at that time she really couldn't find a direction to succeed.

But later, Zhu Youxing personally demonstrated to her that even without much money, she can still achieve extraordinary success in game production.

Stardew Valley is now a benchmark work of independent games. According to the real-time sales data released by the Battle.net platform, the sales of Stardew Valley have now topped the Battle.net platform and become one of the most popular games on the Battle.net platform. .

This is only the result of sales on the personal PC platform.

Until now, there are many voices hoping that Stardew Valley can be launched on the GSX console and GSL handheld.

Since almost no one knows who the user "Nintendo's mother is the master of the world" is, Su Rui Electronics has also taken the initiative to cast an olive branch many times, hoping to get the distribution rights of the Stardew Valley console, and in return, Surui Electronics is willing to give a 2:8 split for physical sales and a 1:9 split for digital sales.

This can be said to be full of sincerity, Su Rui Electronics will hardly make much money from this game.

However, as the developer of Stardew Valley, it is of course impossible for Zhu Youxing to increase the strength of his opponent.

To achieve such success is what Aiko desperately desires.

She hopes to be as successful as Stardew Valley.

But... She is indeed lacking in creativity. She has strong talent but lacks creativity. This should be her biggest shortcoming.

So the main purpose of her coming to this exhibition this time should be to find Zhu Youxing to see if she can get some inspiration and advice, a suggestion that can lead to success.

Zhu Youxing saw Aiko's core problem, because Aiko had a similar performance last time.

Zhu Youxing raised his hand and said: "Sit down first, about your question, in fact, we can have a good talk."

"Zhuyou-san, do you have a solution?" Kazumi asked with sparkling eyes.

Recently, my good friend Aiko is frowning because of this, and Kazumi feels a little worried. If her good friend's distress can be solved, she will be very happy.

Zhu Youxing nodded: "There are indeed some ideas, and they just coincide with some of my ideas."

"Coincidence?"

"That's right." Zhu Youxing said, "Recently, I just had an idea for a new independent game development. However, it would take quite a long time to develop it by myself, but if the three of you are interested, maybe we can develop one together. an indie game."

The three girls are actually no longer outsiders.

The three girls are very popular with his wife Tsukino Aya, among them, Tsukino Aya admires Aiko even more, and sometimes gives a lot of tips on programming and other knowledge. It can be said that the three girls are Tsukino Aya apprentice.

It is no problem for the three girls to call Master Yue Yecai now.

As for myself, I should be regarded as half a master, so it is completely reasonable to train apprentices.

Moreover, Aizi has already called her teacher, so there is even more reason to help the three girls a little bit.

Of course, these relationships are not made public. Except for the core personnel within Youxing Electronic Entertainment, not many people know that the three girls have such a hidden relationship network.

As for why Zhu Youxing recruited three girls to develop independent games, in fact, he felt that letting people from his own company develop independent games with him would make people doubtful, and make people doubt that Nintendo's identity as the master of the world is right? They are the insiders of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Zhu Youxing still hopes to keep this trumpet neutral. This trumpet is more inclined to be more self-satisfied. Even if it produces some works that are not very popular, it doesn't matter, and it will not affect Youxing Electronic Entertainment itself.

Then it is just right to find three girls as partners in the development of this new game.

Aiko also cheered up a little after hearing Takeyouxing's words, she said, "What kind of new game development ideas do you, Takeyou-sensei have?"

Zhu Youxing said: "The game I want to develop this time is actually more similar to the two series we created before, one is Castlevania and the other is Metroid, and I plan to choose from these two games. The essence, and then create another new unique game, which I would like to call a random map Galaxy City game."

Before, Zhuyouxing had actually created a certain degree of randomness in Castlevania, making it closer to the modern meat pigeon game.

But that time it was just a simple random, without further development, because the story structure of Castlevania itself is not suitable for too random plots.

Meat pigeon games, this type of game was also popular in the later game history, and became the favorite of many independent game lovers.

The most famous of them should be Dead Cells, and this time Zhuyouxing intends to create this game.

The three girls had already moved to Zhu Youxing's side, watching Zhu Youxing write and draw on the paper seriously.

Random maps, fragmented narrative, and the refreshing feeling brought by different equipment collocations under random conditions.

These are a few features of this game.

Then, Zhu Youxing wrote out his name.

"Dead... cells?"

The name sounds rather odd.

The combination of death and cells seems to be a little bit scary.

Kazumi flinched when she saw it.

On the other hand, Aiko began to think and make associations through the few key words proposed by Zhu Youxing.

Zhu Youxing said: "It is definitely impossible to fully explain the structure of the entire game through just a few keywords. In short, I will first explain the general framework of the game to you, and then you can consider whether you are willing to cooperate with me to develop together. An independent game, after the final game is released, we will each get half of the game's revenue, and the signature is also my trumpet and the studio of the three of you as the beginning. Both of them are well-known independent game creators and teams. I I think it should be quite attractive.”

The three girls looked at each other, as if they were discussing whether to accept this cooperation.

Zhu Youxing waited patiently at the side.

Not long after, Aiko took the initiative and said, "Mr. Takeyou, can we work together next?"
