Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 524 New Realms

Stardew Valley is a very legendary game.

This is a farming simulation game that was developed entirely by one person and took five years to complete.

Its inspiration comes from the ancient ranch story, as well as a series of similar types of games such as Minecraft and Animal Crossing in the later period.

Stardew Valley can't be said to be the culmination of these games, but it does present the characteristics of these inspired games very well, and it is a very rare top-level independent game.

And the guy who made the game

The work of only one person has created a horror work with a sales volume of 2000 million until Zhuyou Star Travels.

You must know that Stardew Valley was released in 2016. At that time, top masterpieces were everywhere and there were so many sandbox games. Many people have been dazzled by these top cool games.

But Stardew Valley still relies on its very unique temperament to attract every player who plays this game, and is fascinated by Stardew Valley.

However, it sounds a bit staggering that it took a person to develop such a game for five years.

But in fact, the efficiency of this person's own game development is not high, and the time to be in a state of efficient development in five years is very little.

In a certain period of time, he even needs the help of his wife to maintain his life, but this is not because the game developer is deliberately fishing, but more because he is developing alone, and the development process There is almost no one to give reference to, and he has no idea whether the direction he is doing is popular or correct, all this is a mystery.

In such a situation, it will also cast a shadow on his heart, and he will begin to doubt whether the game he developed is good enough.

But Zhu Yuxing didn't have to think about it so much.

First of all, he is now a top game developer, and he is very proficient in the use of various ideas and gameplay.

Even if he were to return to his original world, he would definitely become a top game developer. After all, it was the experience of so many top games in ten years.

Next, Zhu Yuxing is also a very efficient person. In the process of developing the game, he at least won't be too fishy. In addition, he has a very mature development path and knows how to make it, which can actually save a lot of time. .

I roughly estimated that in an ideal state of explosive liver, I should be able to complete the initial development of Stardew Valley in one to two months, that is, to add mainstream gameplay content, such as farming, decoration, mining , as well as social activities and other functions.

These are enough, and then he will gradually add more functions in the later time to make this game more and more full.

"Zhuyou, do you just want to be a role model for the three girls because of their distress?"

Tsukino Aya felt a little outrageous when she heard about the game development plan envisaged by Take Yusei.

This time, he wanted to develop the game by himself, and he almost did not rely on the help of a second person to develop the game, which should be considered a very inefficient behavior for the current Zhu Yuxing.

Zhu Yuxing had no reason to do such a thing at first, but now he suddenly wanted to do it, it seemed that there was only one reason to be a role model for the three girls.

"Forget it, but it's not all, it's you who told me the situation of these three girls reminds me of the current state of the industry, I actually still want more game developers to realize that games should not only be It's just a big production."

Zhu Yuxing doesn't want the game industry to be unable to turn around without him. He also expects people in this world to continue to unleash their creativity to create excellent games.

So far, his original intention has not changed, that is, to play the excellent games created by people in this world, and it is still a bit boring to just copy the games of the previous life.

Now that you have a direction, it is not too late to get started.

This time, he didn't plan to use his reputation, and he didn't even plan to launch the game on his home console and handheld platform in the first place.

His target is the PC platform.

It just so happened that I have been trying to cultivate PC users to use their own Battle.net game platform. This platform is similar to Steam in the previous life, and now it is also a platform with hundreds of games.

It's just that there is no other game that can be played except StarCraft, Doom and other games from the first party of Zhuyuxing.

There are still many netizens jokingly calling this the Yuxing launcher, which specializes in games such as Doom and StarCraft.

It's not that the game developers in this world are not up to the mark and have not gained favor and attention on this game platform, but most of the players are still concentrated on home consoles and handheld platforms, and games on the PC platform are still a bit weak.

But PC is also a very good soil for independent games. If this soil can be made to bloom its due charm, then the mission of Stardew Valley will really be completed.

Zhu Yuxing immediately put down the controller and went back to his bedroom. He couldn't wait to start a new round of game development, leaving Aya Tsukino alone in the mess.

Back in the bedroom, Zhu Youxing turned on his desktop computer, and then tried to log in to a user account he hadn't logged in for many years.

Nintendo is the master of Te Niang's world.

This stalk is completely incomprehensible to people in this world, and it is a romance that only belongs to Zhu Yuxing.

Since he used this account to guide him with the current game review leader Murakami, he has not used this account again.

Because he felt that the more he used it, the easier it would be to use it, and Murakami had already become a leader in the field of game evaluation, so he no longer needed to use this account for anything.

However, after many years, he thought of this account again.

Seeing this familiar account name, Zhu Youxing once again felt a sense of intimacy.

Just use this username to start a new platform.

However, this alone is certainly not enough.

What is his purpose?The purpose is to let indie games have their own market, but at the same time, I want to encourage the three girls to understand that video games do not need big productions all the time.

Independent games are also very good. If they want to enter this industry, independent games are actually a more suitable channel.

Then the process of self-development must be shown to these three girls. As for the method of display, Zhu Yuxing has already thought about it, and that is to present it in the form of a documentary.
