Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 270 The Prediction of Chicken and Dog Jumping
In Japan, No.1 said that the popularity of shooting games is not particularly high. Japan prefers role-playing and action games, and then various small circles such as audio games and GAL games are combined to form the entire Japan game industry.

What really belongs to the No.1 shooting game market is the market outside Japan, especially the United States is the largest market.

So when people over there at [-] o'clock in the evening saw this ad for the latest game, their eyes lit up.

Game age rating restrictions are something that any cultural industry has. People who really want to play don't care about the rating restrictions at all, but you must also mark them.

When Doom came into view, they only had one feeling, and that was cool.

The kind of special effects shots that destroy monsters and take out all enemies with heavy artillery fire make them bloody.

They swear it's the coolest video game they've ever seen, and on the night of the trailer alone, hundreds of thousands of Doom-related posts and entries on the Internet skyrocketed.

There are people everywhere who want to search for all information related to Doom. The traffic on the official website of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has also skyrocketed, and countless gamers have flocked to the website to watch the advertisement over and over again.

They were deeply shocked by this brand-new No.1 gameplay, and the industry insiders are also shocked by this brand-new picture performance.

This special girl should be a real 3D game.

In Tokyo, in the Suri Electronics headquarters building, Hayakawa Zhiren was alone in the office watching the latest game trailer, speechless for a while.

How did he do that?
Heck!
Why didn't I think video games could be made like this.

No.1 called shooting game?

This is a whole new category.

This young guy is a shock after another and never stops.

There is no need to think about how to play this game at all. Just the scenes shown in the trailer and the immersive feeling make people understand that this is definitely a fun and cool game, and it is still Cool to explosive game.

After falling into a brief shock, he immediately stood up from his seat and headed to the game development studio as quickly as possible.

Walking to the studio's office, he pushed open the door and walked in. After walking in, he noticed that many people were watching a game trailer in front of a TV.

That game trailer is the Doom game trailer.

They saw the game trailer around the same time as Hayakawa Ueto.

And they have played it repeatedly for many times at this moment, and they feel that just watching the preview is a bit boring.

While they are game developers, they are also a group of people who love games.

When Hayakawa Zhiren reintegrated the team, he thought that people who develop games must have love for games as the premise.

So when they saw this game trailer, they wanted to play it immediately.

Although it is said that playing a competitor's game may destroy one's prestige, but I have to admit that the game made by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is really fun!
"Have you all seen this notice?"

Hayakawa Ueto walked behind these people and said.

Everyone immediately came to their senses, and quickly stood up and panicked and wanted to go to work.

"Wait a minute, I happen to have a temporary meeting here. I ask you, is it difficult to make this kind of game?"

"This... we're not sure, because this is a new genre, and the production logic needs to be studied, the best thing is to get a Doom game, and then we'll study their code."

"Research the code..."

This is the most effective means.

But this will be very passive, which means that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment will make more advanced games ahead of them.

At this time, an employee who was already a senior game developer raised his hand and said: "Minister, I think researching the gameplay of this game is actually secondary. What really makes my scalp tingling is that the capacity of this game is probably very large, and the code will It is much more than expected, so even if we are familiar with the whole process, developing this game will require a lot of manpower and material resources!"

"Will there be a lot? We have also made 3D games. Is it difficult to make them with our current team?"

"Yes, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment and the others expanded their manpower before, probably because of this reason."

At present, there are ten game development teams in Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, plus occasionally some temporary game development project employees, these have more than [-] people.

The biggest disadvantage of so many people is of course the increase in labor costs.

The biggest advantage is naturally that the speed of writing code for game development will be very fast.

The two game development teams of Surui Electronics are still maintaining around 50 people each.

It's not that Hayakawa Zhiren doesn't want to increase the number of people, but he is not like Zhu Yuxing, who has all the right to speak independently. He also has the restrictions on the shareholder level of Suri Electronics. Unless he makes better results, the employees will not think about it. Easy to add too much.

When the game industry entered the 3D era, the writing of game codes increased exponentially. If there is no such thing as a game engine in later generations, I am afraid that the number of developers of each game company will need to increase by three or five times to meet the same requirements. level game development.

In Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, because of the blessing of the engine, the overall development progress of employees is still very easy, and they can have more time to conceive ideas, and will not be restricted by boring programming.

Hayakawa Ukito thought about it for a moment, then made a decision: "According to the release time of the game on this notice, we still have four months. Quality is still the first priority, is there any problem?"

He looked around and noticed that some people had bitter expressions on their faces. They might have foreseen that they would have to work overtime continuously for a long time.

This is quite a painful process.

But Hayakawa Ukito has never been stingy in overtime pay, which can still be guaranteed to employees with his status.

The leaders of the two development teams nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay, we understand, we will try our best next."

Hayakawa Zhito bowed slightly to everyone: "So troublesome everyone, I hope everyone can work together so that we can create greater value."

Treating employees with enough respect and humility, Hayakawa Zhiren has always been very good in terms of leadership ability, and his popularity is also very good. Faced with Hayakawa Zhiren's request, they naturally have no reason to refuse.
