Top game producer
#17 - You need to eat!
In an apartment in Huozhou.
A young man with a cone-shaped, outrageously red-dyed hairstyle was staring intently at the fluctuating data in the background! His expression was very serious!
He is Bai Li'ao, the younger brother of the senior game producer Jifeng.
At this crucial moment of the game's launch, Bai Li'ao looked at the screen, his eyes gleaming, as if recalling his past glory.
"I, Bai Li'ao, kicked the neighbor's puppy at the age of three and got bitten, locked my grandma on the balcony and ran out to play at five, dominated the arcade fighting games at seven, and was known as the Red Flag Elementary School's sharpshooter at eleven. At fifteen, I skipped school to go to internet cafes and got beaten up, my butt hurt for three whole days. I crammed before the college entrance exam and barely got into an ordinary second-rate university, failing seven subjects in the first year."
Naughty, not fond of studying, and addicted to games. Bai Li'ao used to be a complete problem child, giving his parents a headache.
It was after failing seven subjects in his first year of university that Bai Li'ao's brother had a talk with him.
He said that if he didn't like studying, he could follow him and learn to make games.
Although Jifeng hadn't been promoted to senior game producer at that time, he still had some autonomy in the company, and such a small matter could be arranged with a simple greeting.
Bai Li'ao was tormented to the point of wanting to die by the series of higher mathematics courses at school. Being able to come into contact with game-related work also made him very interested, and he immediately agreed. His parents considered it and agreed as well.
Now, he has been studying game development for two and a half years.
《Jack's Adventure》 is a game that he has been constantly improving in his spare time.
He put a lot of thought into the plot and graphics, and the sketches alone could fill a desk.
Even Jifeng praised it.
It adopts a pay-to-play model, with subsequent content unlocked through in-app purchases, priced at 12 yuan.
"《Jack's Adventure》 has finally ushered in the day of its launch. It is of extraordinary significance to me."
Bai Li'ao stared at the numbers on the screen, the agitation in his chest difficult to calm down: "I developed this game not only to improve my game development skills, but also to prove my growth! To let my parents know that although I used to be terrible, I am now excellent!"
The sales must explode!
Bai Li'ao felt that he wasn't even this nervous during the college entrance exam.
After all, he had put in so much effort. The expectation for the result was not on the same level.
The number of downloads kept increasing.
And the speed of the increase was very fast.
Thirty per minute.
One hundred in two minutes.
"Hiss." Bai Li'ao gasped.
Although it didn't seem like much, he knew very well that, first of all, he was a newcomer with no fan base, and he didn't have the money to promote the game.
Moreover, it wasn't the peak time for game downloads in a day.
A little excited, his heart was pounding.
Then there was only one explanation.
Could it be that I, Bai Li'ao, am a game development genius, one in a million?
Is this the rhythm of becoming a legend with one work?
He quickly sent the data screenshot to Jifeng, his tone full of surprise: "Brother, I feel like I'm about to take off!"
Jifeng: "(Thumbs up) Awesome, my brother."
Just as he was about to reply, Bai Li'ao saw several five-star reviews under his game.
"Let me see what they're praising."
Wind blows through the morning sun: Jifeng, I'm here~!
A little something in my head: Here to support!
...So it's a watered-down achievement, not to be taken seriously.
Bai Li'ao silently deleted half of the content he had typed in the chat box and retyped a few words.
"Brother, thanks."
"We're brothers, no need to thank me."
This time, his impetuous mood calmed down.
Bai Li'ao thought for a moment: "Um... just looking at the data changes, I can't see anything for a while. Then I'll download and play the other new games to see if there are any opponents worth paying attention to."
...
If a company with a solid foundation releases a new game, with a little more publicity, it can quickly rush to the front of the new game charts.
Those that remain at the bottom of the list are mostly works by studios or individuals, and few people pay attention to them.
《The Demon King Hid the Holy Sword from the Hero》 had 132 downloads at 12:00 noon.
After seeing this number of downloads, Luo Shuai, like a fat eggplant that had been晒 (exposed to the sun) for several days in the hot summer, slumped down: "Boss, I feel like we're going to fail. Didn't you say it would be a hit? I don't want to leave."
Wang Jian was speechless: "Have a little patience, okay? We have no previous works and no publicity. This data is normal. Moreover, from the player thinking it's fun and recommending it to a friend, to the friend downloading it to play, it takes time."
Luo Shuai pointed to another game and said: "Look at this game, it's also released by an unknown newcomer, and it already has more than 700 downloads."
Wang Jian glanced at it and said: "I noticed the 《Jack's Adventure》 you mentioned before. I looked at the comments section. He seems to be the younger brother of a senior game producer. His brother probably helped him promote it. It had 400 downloads in the first hour alone."
At 2:00 PM, 《The Demon King》 had 205 downloads.
At 3:00 PM, 《The Demon King》 had 327 downloads!
Suddenly there was a small increase.
Luo Shuai's eyes lit up: "Boss, is the explosion point coming?"
The fat eggplant, which had been drooping at noon, seemed to have absorbed enough water, shaking its head and looking energetic.
Wang Jian smiled: "It should be the first small outbreak."
He gently released his sweaty palms.
Steady!
The comments section of 《The Demon King》 gradually became lively, with most players giving five-star or four-star ratings.
123Boring123Hui: Five stars
Awesome!
Glass Cup Tokisaki Kurumi: Five stars
At first, I thought it was an RPG, but when I went in, it turned out to be a text-based game, which is very unpopular now.
The opening animation is very interesting. I feel that the Demon King and the Hero are not the traditional enemies who have to fight to the death when they meet. The way the Demon King treats the Hero is a bit like my husky at home. It often looks at me with the eyes of an idiot.
The various levels inside are even more imaginative. I failed the first level three times before finding a way to pass it. I was laughing all the time while playing.
Very fun! Recommended.
Luli Yuege: Five stars
This game is super~~~ fun! I haven't seen such an interesting game in a long time! o(*≧▽≦)ツ
Although the puzzles in each level are very counter-intuitive, they are not difficult! You can find a way to pass by trying a few more times!
I played for three hours and got most of the endings!
I have already recommended this game to my friends! I really want to see his expression when he plays it for the first time (funny)
Chenmeng Zhihui: Five stars
This art style, this plot, amazing! The producer's imagination is too big!
Anwen: Four stars
It's fun, a very simple puzzle game.
Completed.
But you have to click GG to revive every few levels, everything else is fine.
Someone replied below: Brother, that's good enough. What else do you want from a free game? They need to make a living!
Wang Jian deeply agreed and added a comment below: "That's right, they need to make a living! ο(=·ω<=)ρ⌒☆"
