Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 679 "Skiing Adventure" is hotly released; Tian Moyun's new idea

The completion rate of "Breath of the Wild" is not bad.

In terms of painting style, there are many differences from the original version, but the basic gameplay and content have not changed much, and still follow the design of the original version.

"Maybe it's time to think about the new game."

Tian Moyun said suddenly.

"new game?"

Su Qiong was puzzled: "Aren't you doing it all the time?"

This year he is not idle.

World game competitions, several console masterpieces, small game platforms, mobile game developer plans... are much more diligent than last year.

However, judging from Tian Moyun's tone, it seemed as if he had done nothing this year.

"Those are small fights."

Tian Moyun waved his hand, and said lightly: "It's just a warm-up, and you can make it with just a little brainstorming. I think what I have done in the past half a year can basically be done by anyone. Nothing."

Su Qiong: "..."

She felt humiliated.

……

Tian Moyun explained for a while before Su Qiong understood what he meant.

"You want to create a new cultural IP?"

Su Qiong was thoughtful: "Is it like "Monkey King", "Shooting the Condors" and "Yi Tian"?"

Tian Moyun's cultural IPs in the past have been quite successful, resulting in a lot of related fan works on the market.

But after "Monkey King", Tian Moyun no longer had this idea.

It may be that I don't want to continue to do it, or it may be that the effect has not met the expected value, and Su Qiong didn't ask about it.

And now.

He seemed to have such an idea again.

"more or less."

Tian Moyun thought for a while: "There really isn't much to do this year. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is only two or three months away, I always feel a bit inactive, so I want to find something to do."

Is it okay to do nothing?
The World Game Competition is a big move.

Several console masterpieces were developed at the same time, with a total cost of billions. Is this a small move?
On the small game platform, "Under the Legend" is recognized as a masterpiece in the game circle, and it is the kind that is popular in the circle.

Mobile game developers plan, "Plants vs. Zombies", "Angry Birds", "Temple Run", "Kingdom Rush" are popular all over the world?

If all this is mediocre, then what are you?
Su Qiong felt that she was being ridiculed again... well, I got used to it.

In the few years I was with this guy, except for the first one or two years, it was like this.

"What about the 'Mobile Game Developer Program'?"

Su Qiong asked.

"At the same time, it's not troublesome."

Tian Moyun shrugged: "The development efficiency of mobile games is very high, and the games in the future will no longer be exclusive platforms, and the two platforms will be launched directly, and the game ecology of the two systems will be improved as soon as possible, causing persistent pressure on the Big Three. ,that's enough."

He doesn't intend to throw all the good cards at once.

Especially if you haven't seen your opponent make a move yet.

Tian Moyun plans to carry out the mobile game plan first, and then secretly accumulate cards, waiting for the opponent to make a move.

It's the same routine as him to develop several console masterpieces one after another, waiting to fight with the old four.

Create the illusion of "I have played all the good cards in my hand" to the opponent, let the opponent relax their vigilance, and wait for the opponent to make a move, then play a wave of trump cards in his hand and ambush him.

In the field of consoles, he is digging a hole to set up a trap, preparing to play the old four.

In the field of mobile games, he is also digging a big hole, planning to have fun with the Big Three.

And then there's the computer realm, with League of Legends coming soon...

Of course, for Tian Moyun, who lacks a sense of security, this is not "sit back and relax".

So, he has other plans.

……

end of June.

The new game "Ski Adventure" is finally finished.

The mobile game development team has made very rapid progress. During the development of several games in succession, they have avoided many common mistakes made by novices, and promoted themselves to a qualified or even excellent mobile game development team sequence at an extremely fast speed. Ueda Moyun provided design drafts and a lot of guidance, so that they are in a stage of rapid development as a whole.

From Plants vs Zombies to Angry Birds.

From Temple Run to Kingdom Rush.

By the time of "Ski Adventure", they have already shown more maturity.

"Very well done."

Tian Moyun checked it several times, and then said with a smile: "It's been hard work for you all this time. Starting today, you can take a break for a while. The results of "Temple Run" are not bad. Wait until the accurate data of the first month's 30 days comes out. , will be paid together with last month's salary."

The interns quickly said that it was not hard work.

In fact, whether it is hard work or not, they can feel it themselves.

The rapid progress during this period is due to the high-intensity study and work. It is definitely impossible to say that it is not hard.

Tian Moyun still had a conscience, so he didn't continue to squeeze.

After the development of five consecutive games was completed, they were decisively given a holiday.

Although they are all just interns, they still have a basic salary during the vacation. As for when the vacation will last... Tian Moyun didn't say, it depends on the situation.

After all, they can only develop mobile games at present, and it is difficult to make console games and computer games.

Tian Moyun has no intention of continuing to develop mobile games recently, so there is no need to keep them in the company, it is better to take a vacation and go out to have fun.

Then, come back to work with more enthusiasm and motivation.

……

12 month 1 day.

The new game "Ski Adventure" is exclusively launched on [Longtu OS].

Tian Moyun posted a Weibo post, which was a simple publicity for the new game:
"It's been a while since the launch of Kingdom Rush, and it's time for a new game to arrive."

"Originally, it was going to be released two days ago, but President Li of [Longtu OS] said, let me put the game online at the beginning of next month."

"I didn't understand it at the time, and I asked him why?"

"Then Mr. Li told me that if you launch a new game again, no one else will have anything to do with the first or second game, so you have to give them some chance."

"I think his statement is a bit contemptuous. After all, the participants in the "Longtu Mobile Game Developer Program" are all big names in the industry. In terms of the time of entry, some of them are still my seniors. How can I be in front of many seniors and colleagues? How dare you be so presumptuous in front of you?"

"After all, in the game industry, who can guarantee that their games will be popular again and again? At least I can't."

"I originally wanted to argue with him, but after thinking about it, he is the boss of the platform. If I offend someone, wouldn't I have to wear small shoes in the future?"

"After much deliberation, I decided to follow Mr. Li's 'suggestion' and put the game at the beginning of this month."

"According to my agreement with Mr. Li, we will develop two exclusive mobile games on [Longtu OS]. "Kingdom Defense" is the first game, and today's game is the second game."

"I'm a little tired from playing games recently, and my mind is empty, so I won't develop new mobile games for a while in the future. I'm going to do something else to change my mood."

"Well--"

"Let's talk about the new game released today."

"The name of the new game is "Skiing Adventure". Winter is coming, and we will be able to ski soon. Let us make a skiing game in advance for everyone to try."

"The gameplay of "Ski Adventure" is very simple, but the music is very nice. I have carefully polished the background music and dubbing for a long time. I hope you will like it."

"Currently, it has been launched in the [Longtu Store]. It is still free to download and try, and there is a 10 yuan buyout system to pay. Compared with the game content, the price is still cheap."

"Finally, I would like to thank the 'Longtu Mobile Game Developer Program' for giving me a chance to realize my dream. I also look forward to the wonderful games from my colleagues. See you next time."

……

An eloquent post on Weibo, full of the taste of irrigation.

Netizens who followed Tian Moyun received this new news immediately, and then started a new round of watering.

Seriously, every idol has such fans, it's not that every family doesn't go into every house.

"New game! New game again!"

"I admire Boss Tian's efficiency a bit. He made five mobile games in two months, four of which were hits, and one was newly released... My colleagues don't want to learn from it."

"What should I learn? A good game cannot be made so easily, and it is difficult to have another Tian Boss in this world."

"Is Mr. Li in [Longtu OS] so interesting?"

"The relationship between Boss Tian and Boss Li has always been very good. The two have cooperated for several years, and it's normal to joke with each other."

"Who can guarantee that his game is booming every time? At least I can't... When I saw this sentence, I, as a preparatory designer, burst into tears."

"Uh... If I remember correctly, it seems that Boss Tian's games are not popular."

"Is Boss Tian still afraid of offending Boss Li? I'm afraid it's the other way around. As a recognized number one designer in the industry, who can't treat Boss Tian as a guest?"

"It's just a joke. How can anyone take it seriously? Have you forgotten that Boss Tian is one of the major shareholders of [Longlin Company]?"

"No wonder Boss Tian suddenly released a platform-exclusive game on [Longtu OS]. It turned out that Boss Li personally invited him."

"Is Boss Tian ever tired?"

"Nonsense, isn't it? You try to develop five games in two months? Everyone's head is empty, you can't do it if you go."

"By the way... After talking in the front row for so long, no one pays attention to Boss Tian's new game?"

"Ahem, this has to go through the process. As excellent fans, we should follow the idol's preferences, so that we can appear more disciplined and polite."

"Does Boss Tian have any preferences?"

"Does perfect obsessive-compulsive disorder count? If you look at the content in other people's Weibo feeds, the logical layout of each time is quite clear. As fans, we have to learn this."

"Hmm... so, can we get down to business?"

"Wow! Boss Tian's new game "Ski Adventure" is finally online, brother Meng, let's download and experience this new epic masterpiece together!"

"I'm squatting at home, and I've downloaded it for a trial play. The picture is so delicate, and the music is so cheerful. I feel that my mood has improved. I'm so excited!"

"Such a good game only sells for 10 yuan. Boss Tian is so conscientious. I feel so excited that I want to cry. Will selling such a cheap game cause a loss?"

"Another sincere work, I announce that the December champion of the 'Longtu Mobile Game Developer Program' has been locked in advance, buddies, let's go!!!"

"Watching Boss Tian's growth all the way, and seeing that Boss Tian finally 'realized his dream' successfully, I wept with joy!"

"I'll go...you guys are so good at blowing? How much is a piece?"

……

Tian Moyun's fans are really good at bragging, but this is based on the premise of self-confidence.

"Skiing Adventure" was just released, and it quickly spread in many forums.

There are fans' spontaneous promotion and recommendations, and many people follow along to join in the fun and gossip.

The players laughed and laughed happily.

While discussing enthusiastically, they went to the Internet to download games, preparing to experience Tian Moyun's new work.

During this period of time, several games of Tian Moyun became popular all over the world, attracting a large number of ordinary mobile phone users who were not interested in games.

"Plants vs. Zombies", "Angry Birds", "Temple Run", "Kingdom Rush"... just pick one out, and it's not even famous.

I dare not say that it is a household name, but at least, almost all users who like surfing the Internet know, no matter whether they have played or not, at least they have heard of the name.

Under such word-of-mouth publicity, shortly after the release of "Skiing Adventure", the number of downloads has been increasing, directly pushing down many popular games.

It seems that there is really a bit of momentum to lock in the popularity champion in December in advance.

……

And those colleagues in the game field are not in a very beautiful mood.

Especially in the field of mobile games, especially the mobile game designers who are preparing to compete in the "Longtu Mobile Game Developer Program".

When they heard that Tian Moyun had released a new mobile game, their faces turned livid.

"Isn't it? Are you still here?"

When they use mobile phones and computers to search for relevant news, their fingers tremble.

Experts like them really know better than anyone how good Tian Moyun's game is, and it's not an exaggeration to describe it as unforgettable.

I thought Tian Moyun would stop after the release of "Kingdom Defense" and give them a chance.

result……

Looking at the new game that I have just made and preparing to put it on the mobile game market for competition, and then look at the shocking release of Tian Moyun's new game...

That kind of sour mood is really not humane.

"I don't believe that he can still make every one a best-selling boutique."

Someone didn't believe in evil, and gritted his teeth and took out his mobile phone to download "Skiing Adventure".

After half an hour...

"Ah! I was too careless just now. If I do it again, I can run an extra 1000 meters!!!"

……

I don't know how long has passed.

The impulsive mood gradually cooled down, and the mobile game designers who regained their composure looked at the homepage interface of "Skiing Adventure" with red eyes, and sighed inwardly.

They had to admit that with their current level, it was still difficult to compete with Tian Moyun.

Compared with the previous three games of "Plants vs. Zombies", "Angry Birds" and "Kingdom Rush", the playability of "Ski Adventure" is obviously not so abundant.

But in many cases, playability is not everything.

Tian Moyun obviously also knew that "Skiing Adventure" was difficult to compare with the previous high-quality works, so he asked the development team to do a lot of content filling work.

As a result, the content of this game is so large that it is almost the richest among the several mobile games currently on the line.

If the playability is insufficient, then fill it with a lot of exciting content, so that players will naturally not get bored so quickly.

By the time the player gets tired of playing the entire game, it will have to be at least a week or two later.

The game for 10 yuan can be played for such a long time, it is still very cheap, much more cost-effective than "To the Moon".

Of course, the types of games are different, and it is impossible to calculate whether it is cost-effective in this way, which is generally the case.

……

Calm down mobile game designers.

Gather up your wounded heart, and start to calmly think about the advantages and disadvantages of the game "Ski Adventure", as well as what you can imitate and learn from.

In terms of gameplay, "Skiing Adventure" is not novel, but it is matched with the special environment of "skiing", which makes players feel bright about this gameplay.

Where is the real essence?
Background music, sound effects.

If you turn off the background music and play again, you will find that the fun of this game has dropped by at least 50%.

The beautiful and suitable background music complements the "skiing" gameplay, plus several modes and dozens of hours of content...

This is the secret to the success of "Ski Adventure".

Simple to say, but difficult to do.

However, there are also many mobile game designers who have gained a lot of new inspiration from this game.

Background music, game backgrounds, screen scenes...these are all places for learning.

……

"Do you think "Ski Adventure" can become the best-selling champion in December?"

In a private group of designers, someone suddenly said such a sentence.

The group of friends were all stunned.

After a long time, someone replied: "It's hard to say, the possibility is very high, but it's not really crushing."

Why do you say that?
The designers in this group are not newcomers anymore, and they consider themselves to be vicious, so they quickly realized what was going on.

For one thing, although "Ski Adventure" is excellent, it is not as overwhelming as "Kingdom Rush" and beats all competitors to the ground.

Secondly, the 'Longtu Mobile Game Developer Program' is in its second month, and it's time for works with the potential to be bestsellers to emerge, and the battle of immortals will soon begin.

It's hard to say whether Tian Moyun can continue to suppress the audience.

of course.

Whether he can hold back is the same for Tian Moyun.

He came to [Longtu OS] to release two games, and he came here by invitation, not to compete with others for the title of monthly best-selling champion.

It's a matter of course to win the championship in December, but it doesn't matter if you can't win it.

Even if there really is a dark horse with a blockbuster hit to the top and overwhelms "Skiing Adventure", no one will say anything stupid about replacing Tian Moyun.

After all, Tian Moyun, as a "member of the capital side", has a different status from game designers like them. Regardless of success or failure, they are all undisputed top bosses.

……

one morning.

"Skiing Adventure" has more than 300 million downloads, ranking first in the download list and best-selling list of [Longtu Store].

This is the monthly list, which is automatically cleared at the end of the month and starts at the beginning of the month.

"Ski Adventure" was launched at 12:1 am on December 8st. With the popularity brought by its fame and the high quality of the game itself, it is naturally difficult for other games to match it.

Players are not surprised by this.

It would be surprising if Tian Moyun's games couldn't even get the first place.

……

With "Skiing Adventure" once again made a high profile, with the rave reviews from netizens, with the praise of mobile game designers and forum big Vs.

This game has successfully attracted the attention of many small bosses in the game circle.

Thus, a new round of follow-up began.

A little boss said this:
"The gameplay of "Ski Adventure" seems to be quite simple. It is not difficult to make it. We have to try it."

"I heard that Tian Moyun came up with this inspiration after seeing the news about skiing. I thought of the time I went to a picnic in the countryside before, so I also got the inspiration."

"Change the environment to a snowy forest, have a picnic in the forest, and attract wolves, so you run away on a dog, and the wolves chase after you... Isn't this inspirational?"

"The name... I've thought about it too. It's called "Snow Wolf Adventure". The painting style can also be borrowed from "Ski Adventure". The background music is passionate and fast-paced."

"Well, I thought again, our "Snow Wolf Adventure" should be made into an advanced version of "Ski Adventure", so that it will be more interesting. It can not only gain some popularity, but also avoid conflicts of interest with the other party. Neither side offends the other.”

"That's the decision. The design department hastened to prepare a design draft. After showing it to me, let the development department act quickly. We want to eat the first wave of bonuses and take the opportunity to make a fortune."

……

There are also small bosses who say so.

""Ski Adventure"? This layout is too small."

"If we want to do it, we need to make it more high-end and atmospheric. I think it over, let's make a volcano background and call it "Volcano Adventure"!"

"What's the point of skiing? At most, it's just buried in the snow. Our "Volcano Adventure" is a masterpiece. Once it fails, it will be directly burned to ashes."

"It's high-end and cool, and in terms of background music, it's a bit scary. The part where the protagonist is burned to ashes must be dubbed with screams to create a sense of reality."

"The design department, the development department, the marketing department... all work hard for me. When our "Volcano Adventure" becomes popular, your bonuses will be indispensable."

"Come on, hit the workers!"

……

What is Tian Moyun doing?
After the release of "Ski Adventure", he didn't care about the mobile game anymore.

Originally.

During the development of "Ski Adventure", Tian Moyun was still thinking about whether to go back and complete "Defending the Carrot".

In the field of mobile games, it is an extremely rare best-selling boutique, on the same level as "Plants vs. Zombies" and "Angry Birds".

But think about it later... It seems that this is not necessary.

【Starry Sky OS】Here: "Plants vs. Zombies", "Angry Birds".

[Longtu OS] Over there: "Kingdom Rush", "Ski Adventure".

and a popular dual-platform game called Temple Run.

These five games in a row are enough to occupy the entire casual mobile game market.

If "Defend the Carrot" is developed again, it will be difficult to achieve ideal results in front of these popular games.

Moreover, it is not appropriate to grab the jobs of colleagues too much, everyone is old acquaintances.

The popularity of casual mobile games has already been created. At this time, it can be completely left to the market to improve itself. There is no need for Tian Moyun to do everything by himself.

Just think of what a boss in the previous life said: If you rest a little longer, you will also give other brothers some opportunities.

Tian Moyun pondered, although we are not considered brothers, the truth is the same.

Instead of taking away so many shares by yourself and causing displeasure to colleagues, we should leave more opportunities for colleagues, and everyone will feel at ease.

of course.

And not just for this.

Tian Moyun no longer develops new mobile games for the time being, and there is another more important reason: he wants to create a brand new cultural IP.

Just like "Monkey King", "Shooting the Condors", and "Yitian".
