Chen Mo woke up.

"It feels like I'm going to die suddenly..."

"No, I must go to bed early tomorrow..."

Chen Mo held his head in severe pain and sat up from the bed.

"Recently, I have hallucinations from staying up all night. Daydreaming is fine. Why do I still dream at night? It affects the quality of my sleep, okay?"

Chen Mo was still complaining about the quality of his sleep last night, but in the next second, he froze and didn't recover for a long time.

"Nimma, where is this? I have traveled through time?!"

Chen Mo looked around.

At this time, he was in a strange room, which looked like a standard room in a hotel. However, this standard room is not very high-end at first glance. Apart from being clean and tidy, there is basically nothing to praise.

There is a large suitcase next to the table in the room. On the table is a rather special laptop computer, which is as thick as a brick and has a large screen. It looks heavy, but the workmanship is exquisite.

Chen Mo had never seen this kind of laptop in his previous life, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be quite expensive.

After washing his face in the bathroom and looking in the mirror, Chen Mo found that his appearance had not changed, but he had become younger, as if he had returned to four or five years ago, when he had just graduated from university.

Slowly, Chen Mo began to acquire memories about the parallel world.

This world is basically 90% similar to the world Chen Mo is familiar with, but the game industry that Chen Mo is most familiar with is quite different.

The root of all this lies in the difference in the level of technology.

In this world, a series of technological explosions occurred for some unknown reason. Maybe it was caused by aliens, or maybe it was caused by a traveler like Chen Mo. The speed of development of computer technology is simply unimaginable and ever-changing, faster than riding a rocket .

Before the popularity of personal computers, top researchers had already developed supercomputers capable of tens of millions of calculations per second; halfway through the innovation of computer technology, a major breakthrough was made in vr technology. The dream of the world became a reality.

Chen Mo didn't complete half of the journey in his previous life in seven or eighty years, and this world was completed in just three to five years.

The technological explosion is of course good, but it also directly led to the interruption of the game industry in this world.

Before the development of pc games, the vr era has already entered the vr era, and those game manufacturers have also focused on researching vr games.

This has resulted in a consequence, without the accumulated experience of PC games, although these game manufacturers have the technical level of VR games, the game design concept is still stuck in the stone age.

But one good thing is that the world attaches great importance to the game industry.

Games are not regarded as scourges and electronic opium like in previous lives, but are respected as the ninth art, and even the country strongly supports it.

And game designers are no longer IT migrant workers in the previous life, but have become respected professions that require strong professional skills just like doctors, lawyers, and even literary and art workers.

As for Chen Mo himself, he is an ordinary student who just graduated less than a year ago and is about to join the game industry.

Strange to say, the way of "joining the game industry" in this world is also very different from Chen Mo's previous life.

Chen Mo wiped off the water stains on his face with a towel, went to the window again, and opened the curtains.

In broad daylight, the sun was shining brightly.

It's really hot in August in the imperial capital. Chen Mo turned on the air conditioner and looked out the window. Just by looking at it, he felt that the sun was going to melt the pedestrians.

Chen Mo had a feeling that these pedestrians would turn into puddles of little sugar figures dripping on the ground as they walked, and then slowly evaporate.

Chen Mo came to the table.

The brick-thick laptop on the table is a high-end PC in this world, starting at 20,000 yuan.

Chen Mo is a poor student who just graduated, and he is not a rich second generation. Why should he save money for half a year to buy such a high-end computer

Because he wants to use this computer to design games.

Yes, this is another difference in this world. In this world, a game designer designs a game and doesn't need a programmer to implement it.

So who will write the code

The answer is: no need to write code. Because there is the most complete game editor in the world, as long as the designer organizes the game design draft and uses the game editor according to certain rules, he can create the desired game by himself.

From small casual games with tens of gigabytes down to large vr games with tens of terabytes, the super editor can complete them all. Of course, the resources and time consumed are definitely different.

Unlike the assembly line workers in the previous life, the game designers in this world are all charismatic, and their status is almost equal to that of artists.

These designers are not divided according to values, plots, systems, levels, etc., and perform their duties like in the previous life, but they must be omnipotent. A designer who only understands the system but not the plot will be despised by the insiders.

There are even some game designers who are first-rate novelists and painters themselves, just like Michelangelo, a versatile genius who is also a sculptor, a painter, an architect, and a poet.

Of course, for some super-large vr games, the chief designer will also find some assistants, but he still has absolute authority and decides every detail of the game. These assistants are not like colleagues, but more like apprentices.

As mentioned earlier, Chen Mo is a young man who wants to join the game industry.

However, the way to join the game industry is not to apply for a game company, but through another way.

The game editor in this world is completely open, but the degree of openness and permissions vary according to the identity of the designer. And if you want to enter the game industry, you must design a complete game through an editor and pass the review of a professional jury.

In his previous life, Chen Mo had actually obtained the qualification of an entry-level game designer. As long as he designed a relatively basic casual game, he would automatically become a D-level game designer.

As for why Chen Mo lived in the hotel? Because he signed up for a game design competition in the imperial capital, he needed a quiet environment to complete his design in the past two days.

Unfortunately, it may be due to too much pressure or staying up too late, and died suddenly.

Chen Mo couldn't help being speechless: "A young man who died suddenly after staying up for two nights? My body is weak enough."

It's no wonder that Chen Mo is under a lot of pressure. Even in this world, the path of a game designer is not easy.

It's been almost a year since Chen Mo graduated, and he still hasn't found the right way, and none of the games he has made have passed the assessment. Although he has all the abilities at the entry level, he has never been able to become a D-level game designer.

If you drag it on, you will have no money at all. There are only three ways, either drink the northwest wind, or go home to eat the old, or change careers.

Therefore, Chen Mo also worked hard, hoping to get a good ranking in this game design competition, but the work was not finished yet, and there were no people left.

After expressing condolences to another Chen Mo for three and a half seconds, Chen Mo quickly calmed down.

Isn't it design games? This is my old profession. As far as the game design concept of this era is concerned, if I don’t hang up the entire game industry, I will really be baptized by domestic free games.

Chen Mo turned on his laptop.

But before that, he decided to order a takeaway first.

His stomach was already growling. In order not to become the first traverser who died suddenly and then starved to death, Chen Mo took the mobile phone on the table.

Sure enough, some apps in life are similar. Chen Mo noticed that the mobile phone in the parallel world was similar to the mobile phone in the previous life, but with higher configuration.

After ordering a rice bowl and milk tea from a food delivery platform called "What to Eat", Chen Mo finally calmed down and opened the game editor on his laptop.
