I am a nobleman in England

"Wow--"

In the office, Arthur leaned comfortably on the boss chair, holding a coffee cup in his right hand, sipping a fragrant caramel macchiato coffee, he likes the smell of vanilla and caramel, sip a macchiato coffee, in NAI In the gradual fusion of foam and coffee, you can taste the rich aroma of Italian coffee, and also the sweetness of beef NAI, intertwined and blended, so wonderful.

Edward, who is sitting across from Arthur, has no time to taste the coffee on the table. He is looking at his hand intently and curiously. The stack of draft paper that the boss gave him, after he read the game ideas on the first draft paper. , He cherishes and values ​​this pile of paper among his opponents, because in his opinion, no matter how powerful technology is, it is priceless, and creativity is priceless!

Seeing Edward finished reading the last page of the draft, and then carefully neat and tidy, those bright eyes staring at him scorchingly, Arthur smiled and put down the coffee cup, pointed his finger at the draft in Edward's hand.

""Flappybird" is the first mobile game I want the studio to develop. The screen content of this game is very similar to Super Mario, and the style is also pixel hand-painted. The operation of the game is very simple and it is very easy to develop. I hope With this game, the number one player studio has become popular.

Although I said that the operation of this game can be said to be very simple to set up, but this simplicity does make the player feel helpless. It should be that the player needs to keep tapping the screen to make the bird fly in the game. , If you don’t click or hold the screen, the bird will fall down and die, so the player can only keep poking the phone screen.

Haha, can you also feel the simplicity of the operation?"

Arthur looked at Edward on the opposite side with a slightly surprised look, and continued with a smile: "But it is such a simple operation that can make people feel helpless. It should be because I set a lot of obstacles in front of the flight. The player needs to control the bird from In the middle of the flight, you must precisely control the time of touching the screen. It is early, late, fast, or slow, and you will sacrifice when you touch the pipe.

Moreover, in my imagination, this game does not have any level restrictions. What players can do is to rely on their own efforts to break through the channels indefinitely. Each time a channel is passed, there will be a number on the head to remind the player which one passed. .

At the same time, the game is in a loop mode. If you encounter a pipe sacrifice in the middle, you can only start from the beginning. If you want to resurrect, there will be no doors.Therefore, this game also tests the player's steadfast ability. In a life that cannot be repeated, every step must be firm and serious..."

The operation is simple, difficult, and endless loop...Hearing these keywords, Edward couldn't help but think of something. He looked at his boss and said with a serious expression: "This game may be highly addictive."

"Hehe, it's not possible, but it's really easy to play YIN. The reason why the game is set to become Tai is because it is so difficult to play, and it is easy to die. This means that the player will over and over again. Replay the same level many times. It’s like a bad habit that people can’t correct. The more you want to eat, the more you eat. In my imagination, FlappyBird is the devil that drives dopamine.

People like to torture themselves, and they like to share the results.The difficulty of the game is the most important factor that makes it popular.The self-directed nue mode will bring word-of-mouth effect, which can form a powerful second spread of the virus."

Arthur explained the reasons for the popularity of FlappyBird in his previous life that he had thought of in the past two days. To be honest, it would be really troublesome to control a group of smart talents.

"Moreover, I am going to put this game on the shelves for free for everyone to download. As for profit, my idea is to use built-in advertisements. I think people will not refuse to place advertisements on the background screen of the game under the premise of being free. "

Hearing the introduction and explanation of the boss, Edward nodded in agreement, looked down at the content of the drawing on the draft again, frowned slightly, then raised his head to look at Arthur, and said with some uncertainty: "Boss, before you Speaking of the content of the screen similar to Super Mario, I saw that the pipe style drawn in your draft is almost the same as that in Super Mario. This will undoubtedly attract Nintendo’s entanglement, and Nintendo has the legal department of the most powerful multinational company on the surface. Specialize in copyright lawsuits."

"Huh?" Arthur frowned slightly, groaned, and recalled the memory of his previous life. There is no memory of litigation. The game was taken down a long time ago, but since there is a risk of infringement, I have to change it. Up.

"Then modify the appearance of the pipeline barrier, and distinguish it, I think there is no problem... As for the second game, it is this cat. I named it "Talking John the Cat". This is a mobile pet application game, which can react when the player touches it, and repeat what the player said in a funny voice.

The most important function and buying point of this game is imitation.Talk to it, and it will repeat it with its strange voice.For all players who have this game software, let John the Cat learn to say some funny words, and you can also record John's retelling of the player's speech and upload it to YouTube or Facebook or send it to relatives and friends via email.Play with this talking John Cat, enjoy the joy and laughter."

Arthur pointed his finger at the scratch paper that Edward found out with a cartoon image of a standing cat, and introduced.

"Talking John Cat? Do you imitate talking?" Edward muttered a few words in his mind looking at the cartoon image on the paper, then looked at Arthur and asked, "How about the profit?"

"It's still free to download. The game requires gold coins to buy props. We can sell gold coins and we can also have built-in ads." Arthur said with a smile, "Free is the most expensive!"

Edward nodded in agreement. As the saying goes, there is no free lunch in the world.When you think it's a pie in the sky, you don't know it's easy to be killed.When you get a certain kind of "free", you must be paying the cost of this "free" in another form as an equivalent exchange.

This "Talking John Cat" is clearly prepared for players in the teenage age group, and this age group is the most attractive to advertisers. It is conceivable that once this game becomes popular, advertising revenue will definitely be very high. rich.

After thinking about it, Edward’s eyes brightened up involuntarily, and then he said with some excitement: “Boss, why don’t we make this talking John Cat directly into an instant messaging app, you can add address book friends and establish a community group , So that our players can play games, but also chat and interact. I think this is much more promising than a pet game!"

"A good idea!" Arthur was reminded by Edward, and he really felt like something. He could take some of the prestige functions of the previous life and use them in the game, even if it does not reach the level of instant messaging. A very good social JIAO game, allowing interaction to increase the playability and lifespan of this game.

I have to say that professional is professional. I just thought of copying ideas and continuing to make games, while Edward thought of the social JIAO software because of an imitation. However, no matter how you look at it, mobile games can’t match the social JIAO software. .

"However, according to your idea, "Talking John the Cat" can set up an independent studio, it has almost gone out of the category of mobile games." Arthur pondered for a moment, his eyes bright, and the corners of his mouth raised. Looking at Edward and said.

"The social JIAO dating app may be more suitable for positioning. You can play games, build interactive communities, and meet new friends. You can choose the image of John Cat freely, and you can purchase various props to dress up your own unique John Cat image. , What you want to say, the background will be processed in real time, and will be directly displayed in the community with the image of John Cat..."

At this time, Edward felt like he was awakened, and all kinds of fresh ideas and creativity began to burst out. Arthur, who was sitting opposite him, was a bit shocked.

Talent. Fortunately, I didn't throw him on the martial arts world website as a technical director. That would undoubtedly be violent and bury the talent!

"Very good, very good!" Arthur clapped his hands with some excitement. He was really happy. It was definitely the most unexpected gain. "If this is the case, then set up two studios directly, one mobile game studio and one Develop this "Talking John Cat" social JIAO dating software, if you can do more, you are responsible for managing these two studios, are there any problems?"

"No problem." Edward smiled confidently. He has some eagerness to set up a studio and start working. He is very much looking forward to when "Talking John the Cat" is developed. After the launch, people's reactions may not Will care, but teenagers will love this app specially tailored for them.

"Yeah." In response to Edward's self-confidence, Arthur nodded in satisfaction, and after a soft hmm, he continued: "In this way, the second game to be developed can only choose Fruit Knight, yes. , It’s this one..."

Looking at a draft of various cut fruits drawn by Edward, he nodded and said: "This is when I happened to see an advertisement for fruit knives on TV at home. In order to reflect the sharpness of the knife, the salesman in the advertisement Throw the fruit into the air, and then use a fruit knife to cut the fruit in the air. The creative thought of. The touch screen of the crazy mobile phone is undoubtedly the most suitable for this game. Fingers are used as a knife, and the throwing is constantly appearing on the screen. The fruit, I think it will be very interesting..."
