Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 180: Awards ceremony

Views:

The exhibition lasted for three days, and the contents of these three days were similar. On the first day, the staff of Dichao Huyu had a fierce fight with Chen Mo, but they withered after the end. The main reason was that all the vr games were thrown out, but Chen Mo "Happy Xiao Xiao Le" stole the limelight, it hurts morale too much!

The exhibition was very successful, and everyone's enthusiasm was very high. They all returned to Beijing, and many people were still reluctant to part with it.

Experience the store.

Qian Kun said unsatisfactorily: "The exhibition is so beautiful, when will we set up our own booth next time?"

Su Jinyu said: "Are you still thinking about the next time? I guess it will be half a year later. There shouldn't be such an exhibition a year ago."

Qian Kun felt a little regretful: "I didn't play enough, I strongly suggest more such activities in the future!"

Zheng Hongxi said: "Speaking of which, at this exhibition, the hottest game turned out to be "Happy Match", which really amuses me to death. Those big game developers are probably confused, what the hell is this?"

"That's right." Su Jinyu also smiled, "A lot of game companies spent so much effort to move out all the unavailable vr games, but when the players were queuing up, they were all playing "Happy Match", laughing I'm dead."

With the closing of the youplay exhibition in the past few days, many game media have also published articles. What surprised these game media is that the hottest thing at the exhibition is not a vr game, but a very simple match-3 game.

This has also become one of the hot topics among people who eat melons recently.

Immediately afterwards, "Happy Match" was launched simultaneously on the Thunder Game platform and the official app store. The popularity of this game began to soar as soon as it was launched. The number of downloads on the first day reached 460,000, which was almost overwhelming. The casual games of the same period are full of teeth.

This statistic was already terrifying, but it was within Chen Mo's expectations. You know, in the previous life, "Happy Xiao Xiao Le" had 3.5 million downloads and 1.5 million daily active users within 15 days of its launch.

In the parallel world, Chen Mo's Thunder game platform is already one of the more influential game channels in China. Coupled with Chen Mo's own appeal and the strong diffusion of the game itself, it is reasonable to achieve this result. among.

Players and game media can only sigh in succession, Chen Mo is a really evil guy, he can even play match-3 games well!

After returning from the devil's capital, the matter of recruiting people was almost settled. Chen Mo made the final decision on all the selections. Four or five of them didn't pass the final review, but most of them were okay.

These people generally have relatively strong professional ability, and the work content they are responsible for is also very clear, mainly helping to share the work. The specific game plan is still fully decided by Chen Molai, and then the three assistants are responsible for different content, and other people will execute it.

However, these people will not join the job until after the year, so the time before the year is relatively free.

Chen Mo asked Su Jinyu and the three of them to make some small games to practice their hands. If they do well, they will hang on the Thunder game platform to promote it. As for himself, he is thinking about what to do next year's game and the annual game awards ceremony.

Not long after returning from Shanghai, Chen Mo received a notice from the gaming committee to invite him to participate in the annual game awards ceremony, where he would be officially awarded the title of honorary committee member.

Regarding the awards ceremony, Chen Mo also did a general check.

The annual game awards ceremony is a bit similar to the previous Game Developers Conference, but it is different.

The award ceremony is hosted by the Games Committee, and it is held once a year, basically before the Spring Festival, around mid-January.

Only domestic games and domestic designers will participate in the selection at this awards ceremony, which is equivalent to an official recognition and encouragement of outstanding designers and excellent games.

In addition to announcing the list of people who will be included as honorary committee members of the gaming committee this year at the awards ceremony, many awards will also be presented at the awards ceremony.

In addition, there are some design ideas exchanges, teaching lectures and other activities.

In terms of awards, there are many awards such as the best game of the year, the best idea, the best newcomer designer, the best vr/pc/mobile game, the best plot, etc., especially the best game of the year, it can be said that domestic designers It is an honor that everyone attaches great importance to. Anyone who can win this award will basically become a very influential game designer.

After all, this is equivalent to an official certification. It is difficult to say abroad, but the gold content in China is still very high.

In fact, Chen Mo doesn't pay much attention to the matter of winning or not, because so far, although he has been in the game circle for more than two years and has produced many high-quality games, so far, he has not really entered the big game. mmorpg and vr game field.

As far as the game industry in the parallel world is concerned, the final awards and classic works are still concentrated in the VR field. Some special game types on the PC end may also win awards, but they are still a minority after all.

As for mobile games, it is basically absolutely impossible to win the "Best Game of the Year" award.

Therefore, for Chen Mo, he still has a lot of room for development. In this awards ceremony, awards like "Best Newcomer Designer" and "Best Mobile Game" still have hope to compete for. Other awards are basically Don't even think about it.

Of course, as a rookie designer, he was able to achieve this level in two years, which has already made countless designers' eyes glow red with jealousy.

On the day of the awards ceremony, the weather was fine.

This awards ceremony is organized by the gaming committee and has a very high status in the game circle, but generally there is no live broadcast. After all, this is not an entertainment circle, and few players care about these awards. All the awards have been revealed, and only individual players will take a look.

Therefore, although this awards ceremony is important, it is not so popular.

The venue was at the Imperial Capital Cultural Center. Chen Mo arrived at the venue on time, and there were staff responsible for reception.

Although this event is called the "Annual Game Awards Ceremony", it is actually more than just an award.

According to the process, this event will last for two days. During the day, there are various exhibitions, fellowships, exchanges of design ideas, teaching lectures and other activities, and the official awards ceremony will be held in the evening of the second day.

For many designers, award ceremonies are important, but these networking and networking events are also essential. The organizer will invite some well-known game designers to give lectures, and all other designers are free to attend to learn advanced game design concepts.

For the Gaming Committee, the annual game awards ceremony is not only for selection, but also to take this opportunity to promote exchanges among designers and promote the development and progress of the entire game industry.
