Top game producer

All races, spaceship concept designs, different scene music, various event designs, program development... everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

This time, Wang Jian from the art department didn't make specific requests. Although the original 'Faster Than Light' had a pixelated style, its content didn't preclude better graphics. Art enhancement would actually improve the game, as long as the sci-fi style was maintained.

After several concept drafts, Ye Meng submitted a version of hard-edged and exquisite line drawings that caught Wang Jian's eye, and he immediately approved it.

...

In the conference room, the planning team members were brainstorming.

Wang Jian clapped his hands: "Today's brainstorming session is about random events, so feel free to share any ideas you have! Uh... Balding Tool Guy, you're in charge of recording!

Starting with me, we'll go around clockwise, and you must share your idea within thirty seconds!

I'll go first. Hmm, a planet that was once a space junkyard. However, the civilization that used it as a junkyard has moved on, so now there's only boundless abandoned garbage and some drones still working according to instructions.

When the spaceship arrives, you can salvage some useful parts and have a chance to obtain a repair drone."

Wang Jian finished speaking, and Bai Li Ao continued: "I have an idea. On a barren planet, you encounter a group of interstellar immigrants pioneering the land. They see the player arrive and request some supplies.

If the player agrees, although these interstellar immigrants have no resources to repay, when the rebel's red zone reaches this planet, they will stop expanding for one turn due to incorrect directions."

The next tool guy with thick leg hair spoke up: "I have a supplement to the boss's idea. Perhaps there are very few people on the garbage planet who didn't board the evacuation spaceship and remained there to reproduce.

If there are human crew members on the ship, it may trigger a hidden event. While scavenging for supplies, you might encounter a dirty human orphan—that is, a free crew member. The player can decide whether to take him on an adventure."

A large-faced tool guy had a slight sweat on his forehead, constantly rubbing his palms, obviously unable to think of any new ideas. In the last few seconds of the thinking limit, his eyes accidentally fell on Black Rice in front of Wang Jian's desk, and his spirits lifted: "Perhaps there is a planet with only cats, um... although it won't be of any direct help, it can let players relax."

Wang Jian: =_=||

...

Inside the recording studio, Wang Jian and Bai Xueyao were discussing the production of the BGM.

This recording studio is on the floor above Longyuan Studio, with first-class equipment. The final recordings of the previous game BGMs were all done here.

Because it wasn't their own, they had to make reservations and queue up. Boss Wang simply bought it for a slightly higher price.

"For this song, I want it to have a feeling of flying away from the ground, higher and higher, out of the clouds, overlooking below. ☞♦ ♦♦" Wang Jian made a lifting motion with his hand, "A very vast atmosphere, the rhythm shouldn't be too intense, just like the liberation of the mind during meditation, the thinking infinitely extending and shuttling in the universe."

Bai Xueyao's expression was a bit tangled, as if she was troubled. She opened her mouth, as if wanting to say something.

"Oh?" Wang Jian instantly became serious. Bai Xueyao had something to say!

..., ..., ..." Bai Xueyao's mouth opened and closed again, nodded, and then played a melody on the keyboard.

Wang Jian nodded approvingly: "This is good! I suddenly have an inspiration, it seems like we can add a bit of ethereal chanting here, weaken the human part, transcend without detaching, showing the ethereal beauty of the universe, what do you think?"

Bai Xueyao thought for a moment and nodded.

With the assistance of several music tool guys and the new intelligent mainframe, the progress was indeed much faster than before.

In this way, constantly creating, modifying, and adjusting.

Only by polishing every detail can the most excellent performance be presented to the players in the end.

...

Wang Jian was meditating with his eyes closed.

Today's brainstorming also gave him some inspiration. He was thinking about how to select and improve these contents.

A cup of hot boiled water was placed on the table.

Wang Jian opened his eyes and nodded slightly to the secretary tool person wearing black stockings.

At this time, he found that B-chan, the leader of the customer service team, had sent a message: "Boss, we received a rather special player email here! It was sent by a foreign player, mentioning that they want to help translate 'To the Moon', suggesting you take a look!"

"Hmm? Before we even do it, a player has taken the initiative to contact us." Wang Jian was slightly surprised, because Longyuan's previous three games hadn't been released on foreign platforms yet, unless they came to Chinese game platforms to find them.

"To the Moon" is purely story-driven, and foreign players who don't know Chinese definitely won't understand it.

Wang Jian's plan was to develop well in China first, anyway, he didn't make games to make money, so there was no rush to expand overseas markets. But foreign players are so enthusiastic, maybe it's time to put the game's translation and overseas version on the agenda?

Wang Jian opened the email.

"To Longyuan Interactive Entertainment:

Hello, I am a Chinese student studying in Jin Yuan Country. I discovered 'To the Moon' while searching for games on a domestic platform. I was very moved after playing it, but it is a pity that this game is only sold in China and does not support English, so I can't recommend it to my foreign classmates.

I think such an excellent game deserves to be played by more people. I wonder if your company currently has any translation plans?

If not, I would like to recommend myself and hope to translate 'To the Moon' purely out of interest, without any payment. If so, I also hope to participate and contribute.

Attached: I am majoring in linguistics at Sparrow University, this is my professional certificate (attached picture), and I have also participated in the localization of 'Haunted House Horror' and 'Twisted Monster vs. Clockwork Man', and have experience in this area.

Finally, I wish your company all the best! And continue to make more excellent games!

A warm-hearted netizen who wishes to remain anonymous."

Wang Jian couldn't help but admire: "In order to let foreign players play the English version of the game as soon as possible, they offered to translate for free. There are actually such selfless and unrequited players, what a noble spirit of international mutual assistance!"

After thinking about it, he replied:

"Hello, enthusiastic netizen, I am Wang Jian, the producer of 'To the Moon'. Well, for convenience, let's call you Mysterious Foreign Student, Mysterious Student.

Thank you very much for your enthusiasm. Originally, we didn't have any plans to put the game on shelves in other countries for the time being, but your enthusiasm reminded me that it is also our responsibility to bring joy to foreign players.

But currently, we have to concentrate on making new games, and we will start related work after this game is finished. If you want to help, how about becoming a Longyuan external employee? The salary will be settled according to the amount of translated text."

More than a month passed, with tool guys and intelligent mainframes speeding up the progress, 'Faster Than Light' was successfully completed before the scheduled date!
