Almighty Game Designer

Lin Mao asked: "Chen Jiao, your gameplay has been quite a mess lately. How dare you offend a lot of people? ”

Chen smiled and laughed: "Sinners? You mean the channel dealers? I didn't like them very much either. Besides, what is offense? I don't need to care about their faces right now. They're upset or not. It's none of my business. In fact, it's time for them to knock me out. ”

Lin Mao laughed too: "Yes, you did, but you did. Come on, cheers, for your expansion! ”

The three of us raise our glasses together and drink up.

Chen Jiao poured these two drinks.

Lin Mao also took a bottle of beer and poured it to Chen Qiao: “To be honest, I'm also a little curious, what exactly is your purpose as a gaming platform? According to the report, the Thunder Game Platform is now the third largest game platform in the country. You want to smoke 78% of the games like the Emperor Dynasty entertains each other and make money lying down completely fine. Why force this ratio to 30%? ”

Chen Qiao said, "No one else understands. Don't you understand? ”

Lin Mao blinked: “Are you just watching the channels? ”

Chen smiled: "Yes, I just don't like watching those channel vendors. ”

Zhao Zihao picked his thumb: “Bullshit. ”

"In fact, there are channels abroad, like some large gaming platforms, all smoke 30% on average, up to 50%, there is no more. But what about these big domestic channels? With the help of users in their hands, some incompetent rookie designers are suppressed, even smoking 80% or 90%! ”

“Moreover, channel players have a monopoly on the gaming market, and there is no benefit to players in making money to push them to a bunch of junk games. ”

“Players and designers alike suffer, and some have to be exploited only through channels. In order to get recommended places, and to get more players to notice their games, they have to change the profitability patterns of the games and make good games look messy. ”

“Many skeletal independent game designers have even chosen to put their games online overseas, and over time there have been fewer and fewer innovative games in the country. ”

“I just don't like watching those channels, and most of the resourced channels choose to get dirty, and I'm not like, I'm a platform, but I'm a designer, and I don't care if anybody else can handle it, so I have to come out. ”

“A lot of people think I'm a price fighter, but I'm really not, I'm rich, I have the resources, so I'm going to do something right, that's all. ”

Lin Mao nodded: “OK, Chen Jiao, just say that to you, I will! But to be honest, I admire your courage, and you're smashing those vendors' jobs. ”

Chen smiled. “So what? E-commerce also smashed the restaurant bowl, so what? Something that shouldn't exist should be eliminated by history, and I know what I'm doing is the right thing, that's enough. ”

Lin Mao said: "Well said. Just in time, my new game is almost over, and I intend to support you and hang on to your platform. ”

Chen Jiao nodded: “Welcome! Rest assured, I will give you a good promotion. How's your game going? ”

Lin Mao said: "The completion is quite high, and we intend to go to the official application market in the next two days. By the way, how many designers have contacted you lately? ”

Chen thought about it: “I've been contacted by dozens of designers so far. Mainly a lot of people are still watching. After all, the Thunder Game platform has never promoted the games of other designers before, and now the channels are very rigid, and they hesitate to be normal. ”

Lin Mao said: "It's okay, take your time. ”

Lin Mao has also made four games so far, basically one a year, and is now a B-rated designer. In fact, Lin Mao's progress is very good, but compared to Chen Jiao's open-handed player, he will appear to be somewhat silent.

The three of them continued to chat in unison.

Suddenly, Zhao Zihao remembered something and said to Chen Qiao: "By the way, when I was abroad, I found a nice RPG map. No, not at home. It's called COG, ClashofGods. Have you played? ”

Chen Qiao stunned: “Translated into Chinese is... the battle of the gods? ”

Zhao Zihao nodded: “Yes, that's the name. And the play method is quite interesting. It's more like the Chenghai 3C you made. It's also three roads, but the layout is not quite the same, 5V5. ”

Chen Stranger frowned slightly: "Oh, do you have a video? ”

“Yes, you wait. ”

Zhao Zihao searched the phone for half a day, found a video to try out COG and show it to Chen Jiao.

This video was recorded on the screen with a mobile phone, with a bit of clarity, and the average person would see a fog, but Chen stranger could see it clearly.

This is a map made with the Warcraft Competition Editor, like Chenghai 3C, three paths from left to right, but it already has the concept of wild areas and wild monsters.

Each of the 10 players can control a hero (called a god according to the packaging of the game) with the ultimate goal of destroying the other base.

There's not a lot of information on the video to try out, but the structure of this map can still be inferred from a small map.

Chen Jiao nodded: “Well, that's interesting. ”

Zhao Zihao said: "This map is quite hot abroad, especially in Europe and America, where the heat is high and recently climbed to the top of the confrontational map. I also especially enjoy playing, I feel more balanced than Chenghai 3C, and it's less difficult to get started. ”

In fact, Chen Jiao can regularly review some data from the overseas edition of Warcraft Competition, but he has been busy lately, so he hasn't been paying much attention. If Zhao Zihao hadn't sporadically mentioned it, he might still be a week or two late to discover this map.

Chen Qiao asked: "Is there a European and American company that would like to change this image into a separate game? ”

Zhao Zihao thought about it: "Uh, the author of this diagram is said to be looking for some big gaming companies, but because the price is high, it's not yet negotiated. I don't know what happened now. ”

Chen Jiao nodded, okay, as he expected.

The original author of this map is sure to be very aware of the potential of this play, but at present, COG this map is a derivative of Warcraft Competition, and if you want to make a profit, you have to change everything from the engine to the character settings, obviously this author doesn't have the strength right now.

But those big European and American games factories certainly don't want to give him so much resources because of an unknown map, so in the short term, it's hard for both sides to agree, and COG is still a long way from growing into a single game.

Chen Qiao asked: "Can you reach this author? ”

Zhao Zihao stunned: “Uh, I think so. Why? ”

"I'm going to talk to him. ”
