Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 254 The game is online, super simple gameplay
The networking function of "Flying Bird" uses the server of [Star Technology Company], so naturally there is no need to worry about network problems.

The technicians have also set the launch time in the background, and will log in to the [Software Mall] at 6:00 am the next day to provide free download services.

certainly--

Just because it's free to download doesn't mean the entire game is completely free.

The profit of "Flying Bird" is mainly through props, skins, and game background.

As a game designer, Tian Moyun is very aware of the difference between a classic game and a bad game. To put it bluntly, there are only three words - balance.

The balance of a game will directly lead to the quality and reputation of the game.

Many garbage mobile games on Earth in the previous life seem to be various, but they are all skin-changing games with the same core, and they are essentially "charge money to become stronger" series.

If these games are run well, of course they can make a lot of money, but the word of mouth of the game will collapse... Of course, this is not what Tian Moyun wants to do.

Sacrificing the balance and fairness of the game in exchange for profit can certainly achieve short-term profit, but the life of the game will not be too long, and what is sold is just a novelty.

Tian Moyun owns the huge industry of [Thunder Group] and earns hundreds of millions of dollars a day. Of course, he doesn't look down on the little money from selling games.

therefore--

The profit model adopted by "Flying Bird" is all adjustments in appearance, which will not affect any balance, nor will it have any impact on the rankings.

For example:

Give the little stupid bird a cool look, and replace it with a thrush, a lark, a magpie, a canary, even a peacock, an eagle, a white dove, and... a big rooster.

Not only the appearance, but also the corresponding sound and special effects, it looks very beautiful.

Well……

On the point of "appearance", there is no need for any doubt. The biggest feature of [Happy Game Company] is its excellent picture quality and high appearance. For example, in the original "Beautiful Girls", the only main It's a wonderful fighting game with good looks.

In addition to the appearance of the little stupid bird, there are also game backgrounds and special gbm... These are all obtained by charging money, bringing players different enjoyment, and effectively preventing them from getting bored when climbing the leaderboard.

……

Tian Moyun didn't care about the comments of sand sculpture netizens. After posting the post, he directly logged out of the account, and then took Xiao Suqiong to have a cold drink.

The development of this new game was just an idea, and it was taken out as a test, and the loss and profit were not important.

the next day--

6:00am.

A girl who loves games crawled out of bed, turned on the computer, and skillfully double-clicked [Software Store] on the desktop.

As soon as it was opened, the new software promotion on the home page was "Flying Bird". Just click to download and install, and the installation will be successful automatically soon.

After exiting [Software Store], I saw a little stupid bird icon appear on the computer desktop.

Double-click the mouse to start the game.

A simple and elegant cutscene appears.

In the animation, a little stupid bird avoids obstacles from above and below, and flies forward in the face of the biting ice and snow, and finally flies to the sun, getting smaller and smaller until it disappears... It looks very inspirational and gives people The first sense is good.

After the animation, a query box pops up: "Would you like to use the [Star Account] logged in on this machine to register with one click?"

[Starry Sky Technology]'s software is very convenient and easy to use. Only one [Starry Sky Account] is needed to log in all software data online, which is really a powerful tool for office work.

The girl knew this query box by heart, and clicked OK without hesitation.

After one-click registration, four round and lovely boxes come into view——

Start the game, item store, my ranking, and exit the game.

The four options are very simple, and this extremely simplified game style fits Tian Moyun's style very well.

"It looks pretty good."

The girl thought to herself.

Move the mouse, click 'Start Game', and see a little stupid bird standing in the center of the screen.

According to the prompt on the side, the girl casually clicked on the keyboard input area, and the game started immediately. The little stupid bird flopped and fell straight down. The screen went dark, and four large characters came into view—the game is over!
"Ok?"

The girl was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, she realized that it was necessary to keep pressing the keys in a rhythmic manner to allow the game to continue.

After restarting, the girl groped to control the little stupid bird with the space bar. Seeing that stupid look, she suddenly chuckled: "It's quite interesting."

Then, an obstacle of green water pipes appears ahead.

The girl understood, and tapped the space bar rhythmically to control the bird's ascent and landing, avoiding the green water pipe, with a serious look on her face, as if she was in the scene.

But after all, she is just a newcomer to this game, and soon because of accidentally clicking too many times, the little stupid bird bumped into the green water pipe, the screen went dark, and the game ended.

"That's it? That's it?"

The girl was a little confused, and suspected that the way she opened it was wrong.

She is a veteran player of Tian Moyun's games, "Super Mario", "Contra", etc., including the following arcade games, and played almost every single one of them.

If not, it would be impossible to get up early in the morning to download new games.

result--

The girl never thought that this new game would be so simple.

"Eh? No."

The girl suddenly noticed that there was an extra number under the four characters "Game Over" this time: 89 points.

What is this number for?

After she retreated to the main interface, she clicked on "My Ranking", and saw a line of words appearing on it: "Xiaotang: 89 points, 895th."

Xiaotang is her star account ID name.

The girl immediately understood that the score of 89 was the score she scored just now, but is the ranking of 895 too low?After all, she fought for a long time.

And what you need to know is——

This game has just been launched, so there are so many people playing the game, and they are all ranked above me?

The girl saw two boxes at the top again, which were "World Ranking" and "Friends Ranking". She was ranked 895th in the "World Ranking". When she clicked on "Friends Ranking", she found herself ranked 5th. They are all old acquaintances from the same company.

And when she was in a daze, she suddenly changed from No. 5 to No. 6. After a closer look, someone surpassed herself again. The cute ID name was the company's artist sister.

"I can't bear it."

Xiaotang took a deep breath, exited the leaderboard, and clicked "Start Game" to continue playing.

Originally, she thought this game was meaningless and too simple, but now she instantly felt full of motivation.

Even if she can't beat those big snots (BT) in the "World Ranking", she still has to dominate the friend list.

After half an hour—

Seeing "Xiaotang: 279 points, ranked No. 1 among friends, ranked No. 189 in the world" on the screen.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, and when she saw that half an hour had passed, she was startled, washed up quickly, changed her clothes and went to work.

Xiaotang is just one of countless players.

"Flying Bird" is not a complicated game, there are no cool special effects, and no rich gameplay, but with its simple and cute style of painting, and the function of online ranking, this game directly soars into the sky and becomes popular full.
