I Make Games To Scare Crying Players

Chapter 22: The development of "Blackjack" is complete!



  Chapter 22 "Blackjack" development completed!

   The next day, Meng Shu clicked on the developer background of the cyber platform. The moment he saw the sales volume, he couldn't help but burst out laughing in the office.

  In three weeks, after the official version of his "Dark Forest" was announced yesterday, the sales volume has increased a lot.

   Now 166W sets have been sold!

  The sales amount has reached an unimaginable 114.5 million!

   This amount of money, for a new company, finally has a little bit of confidence.

  Although compared with the assets of the original world, the money is still a little less.

   But what self-made entrepreneur has a small goal in 3 weeks?

  However, this is also thanks to the advertisements placed by Unlimited Online Entertainment on the entire network.

   Now open a mainstream video website, and you can see the promotion of "Dark Forest".

   Not to mention other medium-sized websites, presumably these have attracted many people.

  "Dark Forest" can achieve its current results, in addition to its excellent quality, it is more because of the dividends of this blank market in the world.

  The extremely excellent depressive atmosphere and horror survival gameplay allow players to stimulate their senses and psychology while trying something new for the first time.

   It's like Meng Shu's first time eating hot pot. Although he is afraid of spicy food, he just wants to eat it. Even if the weather is hot, he still wants to eat steaming hot pot in an air-conditioned room.

  Even drinking Wanglaoji Jiaduobao, you want the refreshment of a piece of meat.

   Now that the official version of "Dark Forest" is on sale, this game will naturally exit with the passage of time.

   This is an unavoidable problem.

   But Meng Shu wanted to keep the game hot.

   Then the best way is to

   "Open MOD."

  Meng Shu looked at the computer screen and spoke softly.

  MOD is a game mod, which can optimize and enhance the game itself, so that the game has more possibilities and more playing experience.

  It turns out that the steam platform in the world has a creative workshop, which is full of MODs for various games.

  Cyber ​​platforms in this world also have similar ones, with a simpler name, directly called 'MOD Community'.

  Meng Shu grinned, smiled slightly, and raised his legs.

"Opening "Dark Forest" to players, allowing players to make their favorite MODs, adding freshness to the game, increasing playability, adding new plots, and allowing players to optimize the game content by themselves is the best way for a game to maintain its popularity. Good idea."

  He said slowly, thinking of the most classic game in the world.

"The Elder Scrolls 5"!

   This game was released in 2011, but until he crossed over, the popularity of this game remained undiminished, relying on MOD to become popular all over the world, and there are new MODs every now and then to enhance the freshness of the game.

   Some players even made this sword and magic game into a sudden game through MOD.

  Some players use MOD to turn this role-playing game with zero sense of shock into a **** action role-playing game, and the sense of shock soars.

   It is really the players teaching the developers to make game series.

   Because of the MOD, this game has been popular for eleven years!

   It can be seen how long the game modification with player participation is.

  So in order to keep the game popular and topical, Meng Shu doesn't mind opening up the MOD community, allowing players to make limited modifications on the basis of the game.

  But this doesn't require him to do it himself, let's recruit a group of programmers to do it, and it is also convenient to port the game to other platforms.

   And he only needs to concentrate on developing new games.

   Then, he wrote a congratulatory letter, the main content of which was to celebrate "Dark Forest" breaking through 1.50W sets, thank you for your support and so on.

  At the same time, he also emphasized that the VR game "Blackjack" will be released on the IGame platform in a free form on time, and please support it.

  After writing this congratulatory letter, he casually posted it under his account dynamics on Danmaku.com, and then ignored it.

   "Blackjack" is released for free to prove sincerity.

  He knows that the VR games in this world are extremely poor due to technical problems, even if a well-known big manufacturer makes a move, it will end in a disastrous failure.

  I also know that players are suspicious and distrustful of VR games.

   This is not difficult to understand.

  Leaving the original world aside, it is like jumping out of a small factory in a corner, claiming that he will develop "Red Dead Redemption 2" within a month with the ability of four or five people. It seems so ridiculous and so overreaching.

  So when Meng Shufang said that he would develop a VR game within a month that even major manufacturers could not produce, the players did not expect it. On the contrary, they did not even pay attention.

  On the Internet, there are only the original congratulatory speech that broke 20W and some reposted articles that no one has read for a long time.

  Everyone's attention is more on "Dark Forest".

  It can be seen how much players in this world don't trust VR games, or how much they don't trust Meng Shu.

  This may cause players not to buy the game after it is released.

  Even if the quality keeps up with the sales in the future, it will only take time to prove it.

  So, he decided that when the VR game "Blackjack" is released, it will be free to download, so that everyone can have a try and experience the experience without spending money anyway.

  After all, VR has become popular, and you can use VR to play games if you have a computer at home.

   When they were shocked by this game experience beyond the current era, Meng Shu believed that the next VR horror game.

   Absolutely hot out of the circle!

  His free idea was persuaded by Unlimited Online Entertainment many times, but they were all ignored.

  So in the end, he had no choice but to agree to Meng Shu's listing on the IGame platform for free.

  However, the commission of "Dark Forest" will increase by 0.5%, which is counted as the price for the free release of "Blackjack".

  This can only be said to be a businessman, and Meng Shu doesn't care.

   Now that the matter of "Dark Forest" has come to an end, it's time to concentrate on developing "Blackjack".

   It's a month away from the grand ambition, but there is only one week left.

  Meng Shu looked at the monkey simple development engine in front of him.

   Inside, there are scenes made by Xia Nianzhen.

   I have to say that this girl's skills are really good.

  Although there are some gaps with the original game, it is basically a high-quality copy.

  He was relieved at this point.

   Now there is one more problem.

  It is "Blackjack" as the DLC of "Resident Evil 7", and its characters are related to the game itself.

  Now it is singled out and made into a brand new independent game, so the relationship between the characters needs to be modified.

  Meng Shu sat on the chair with his arms crossed, frowning in thought.

  Suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he thought of a very good reference!

   "Saw"!

yes!

  The opening of "Blackjack" is Lucas explaining the rules of the game to the players and opponents and controlling the audience through the black and white TV.

  Then why not delete Lucas' character and adapt it to a character like a jigsaw?

   Put another mask on him, and revise the lines.

  That’s not too similar!

   Doing what he said, Meng Shu immediately began to revise it.

  In addition, because the game is only a small-scale DLC, it doesn't have too much to shape the protagonist Clancy's opponent Hoffman.

   Now to make "Blackjack" into an independent game, the characters must be full.

   Therefore, in terms of lines, the protagonist Clancy and the opponent Hoffman should also increase some, so that players can be impressed, and it is best to feel the hardships of survival!

  Thinking of this, the frequency of Meng Shu's hands gradually accelerated

   Then, in the rest of the time, he also contacted Infinity Online Entertainment, and asked them to help find suitable dubbing and soundtrack by giving them the script.

   And this publisher is also worthy of being a leading domestic manufacturer. In three days, it sent encrypted audio.

  Meng Shu quickly imported it into the program, and the engine automatically matched and optimized it, saving him a lot of energy.

  Finally, under Meng Shu's magic modification and development, this independent VR game "Blackjack" is finally completed!
