Chapter 7 I'm Not a Cat Slave
In order to keep Luo Shuai, Wang Jian revealed a little bit about the game content of "The Demon King".

Even if it was just a little content, Luo Shuai opened his mouth wide in shock, he could almost stuff a hot dog.

After a while, he said excitedly: "Boss, your brain is too genius! How did you come up with such an idea? As a game veteran, I have played many word games before, and I never thought I could do this!"

Wang Jian raised his eyebrows: "So you call me the boss?"

Luo Shuai laughed and said, "I think it's very promising to hang out with you!"

After looking at the task bar, only I can see it, and the task of retaining employees shows that it has been completed.

As expected by Wang Jian, the new idea of ​​"Devil King" is very attractive to people like Luo Shuai who like games.

Looking at his [Cat Slave] talent, Wang Jian couldn't laugh or cry.

Moving his gaze to Luo Shuai, his information was indeed displayed.

Wang Jian nodded secretly: "Being able to see the talent of the employees can make better use of their strengths."

Next, discuss development with Luo Shuai.

There really isn't much to say about the making of the game.

There are several mature frameworks for word games on the market, all of which are free and open, and can be used by any game creator.

Just ask Luo Shuai to modify it a little, and the technical difficulty is very low.

The main work content is still drawing, there are more than [-] kinds of characters and monsters in total, and more than ten different backgrounds.

Wang Jian is going to temporarily act as an artist and draw by himself.

At Galaxy Game University, his major is planning, but he has also taken courses on game art.

Although his drawing level is mediocre, the main selling point of "The Demon King" is his imagination, and the art style is also simple, so it's not a problem.

The production difficulty marked on the game planning book is 5, which is basically the level that even beginners can make.

Luo Shuai asked: "There is no equipment in the studio right now, so I'll bring my own computer here tomorrow to make do with it?"

Wang Jian was helpless: "I can only do this first, my funds are not very abundant at present."

Luo Shuai is very optimistic: "Boss, don't worry, "The Demon King" will definitely be popular, and we will have money when we finish the production."

Wang Jian patted Luo Shuai on the shoulder and encouraged him, "When I make money, I'll give you a big red envelope!"

After briefly assigning tasks, the two then discussed the issue of game profitability.

""Devil King" is really not easy to refer to the price of other text adventure games." Luo Shuai felt a little embarrassed.

"A love word game with an excellent script and excellent art is generally priced at 50 yuan. Although "The Devil" has various interesting ideas, but the content is relatively small and not refined enough, it is not appropriate to set the price too high. We set the price How about 3 Huayuan?"

Regarding how to make a profit, Wang Jian already has a preliminary idea.

He asked Luo Shuai: "If you were a player, what would your reaction be after playing "The Demon King"?"

Luo Shuai thought for a while and said, "Probably because I thought 'Fuck, you can still play like this', and then I will complain to everyone in the game group, and I am curious to go to the comment area to see other people's thoughts."

Wang Jian nodded: "The gameplay of "Devil King" is innovative. Players who are exposed to such a game for the first time may be aroused to complain and actively promote it to their friends. In other words, "Devil King" has a viral spread. potential.

It is not as good as a free game directly, which can better stimulate the spread potential of "The Devil" and make money with paid advertisements. "

Luo Shuai Mingwu: "It's really suitable for a free game plus advertising payment. I shouldn't treat "The Devil" as a traditional text adventure game."

Wang Jian explained his thoughts in detail.

In "The Demon King", there are a total of twelve levels and thirty endings.

In addition to the final ending of the game, each of the different death methods in the process of breaking through the level represents an ending, each with its own characteristics.

For example, in the first level, if the player clicks on the special slime hidden among ordinary slimes, the ending "a slime stronger than the devil" will be triggered.

For each level, players may have to experience several failures before they can try out the correct way to pass the level.

Taking into account this feature of the game, Wang Jian is planning to use the payment method of incentive videos.

Incentive videos mean that users can receive some rewards after watching the video, such as in-game currency, store props, or reducing the time to open the box.

This method can make players willing to accept or even actively seek advertisements, and players can also improve the retention rate of the game itself while obtaining value-added services for free.

At present, the minimum price for this kind of incentive advertisement is 30-50 yuan/200 impressions, and the highest price is [-] yuan/[-] impressions.

The higher the popularity of the game, the higher the advertiser's price.

Wang Jian's plan is to give the player 10 hearts at the beginning of the game.

One heart represents an opportunity, and one heart will automatically recover one hour.

Every time you fail, you lose a heart.

If you have no heart and don't want to wait for automatic recovery, you can directly fill your heart by watching a video advertisement.

With all kinds of hard-to-defend ideas, players want to complete the level, at least they have to fail thirty times, that is, they will click on the advertisement three times.

At this time, only half of the ending is usually unlocked.

The higher pursuit after customs clearance is naturally to collect all endings.

Some endings are hidden deeper, and it takes about a hundred or even more attempts to collect all of them.

Assume, on average, each player clicks on an ad 5 times.

If the game has 1 downloads, calculated at 50 yuan/thousand times, you can earn 2500 yuan.

If the game has 10 downloads, calculated at 100 yuan/thousand times, the income is 50000 yuan, which is enough to pay the rent of the studio.

If the game gets 100 million downloads. Tsk, that's a real skyrocket.

Of course, this is an ideal calculation method, and the popularity of the game changes at any time.

Although I really want to start work today, but the studio has no equipment, and the time is not allowed.

The two made an appointment to meet tomorrow morning!
When Wang Jian returned to the rented place, lying on the bed, thinking about everything that happened today, he couldn't help but feel a little dreamy.

The excitement didn't dissipate until two or three o'clock in the morning.

Before falling asleep, I had an idea in a daze.

Seems like you forgot something important?Forget it, let's talk tomorrow
　Thanks to Belt Spore for one recommendation, and Liuli Yuege for three recommendations!
