Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 59: Such a dodgy design document!

Views:

A very interesting phenomenon is that the more players who are unwilling to spend money in the game, the more they care about the money given by the game.

Are you unable to continue playing? It's okay, I'll send you diamonds. As long as you log in today, I will give you 100 diamonds. After playing n levels, I will give you another 500 diamonds. After you have reached level 30, I will give you...

These players will calculate, 100 diamonds are 10 yuan, I can get 10 yuan for logging in, 50 yuan for customs clearance, and 100 yuan for upgrading...

And abandon the tour? That is equivalent to losing tens of dollars every day.

At this time, a large part of players will stay for the money.

Many people think that this is because the players are poor. If the players are rich, they will not be tempted by these tens of dollars.

This view is completely wrong.

Whether players care about the money sent by the system is only related to their personality, and most people care about these.

Chen Mo had seen this kind of local tyrant in his previous life. He had recharged hundreds of thousands in the game, but he cared about the hundreds of diamonds that the system gave every day.

By the time these players stayed because of the money sent by the system, they had already accepted the model of "spending money to buy combat power" and gradually accepted the exchange relationship between in-game props, diamonds and real currency.

After that, this group of players who didn't want to spend money at first may be converted into paying players in a relatively cost-effective recharge event.

From the first charge, to the monthly card, to the lifetime card, and then to the first large recharge, more and more money will be paid.

It doesn't matter if you don't convert all the time, even if a player doesn't charge a penny, at least he can play with paying players, which is also good for the game's own ecology.

For this kind of free players who don't spend money at all, the game company also welcomes it. As the saying goes, those who have money will buy money games, and those who have no money will buy personal games, that's what it means.

Of course, the third type of fun is based on the first two types of fun. Players must fully agree with the gameplay and content of the game before they are willing to be Pavlov’s dog and serve the virtual world in the game. Pay for cards and combat power.

It took Chen Mo two days to plan the overall framework of the game. After that, Chen Mo began to write the basic rule document, and it took a week to complete all the details.

This time is similar to that of "Plants vs. Zombies". This is because the rules of the domestic card mobile game seem simple, but actually there are many details in writing, and it takes a certain amount of time.

Of course, during this period, the line drafts of the original card paintings have also been released.

There are a lot of cards, but Chen Mo doesn't have to finish them all at once, he can just produce them wherever the outsourced painting is done, and it won't waste too much time.

In addition, Chen Mo also paid attention to the production progress of the original painting and animation, and everything went well. This weekend, Guo Feng will send Chen Mo the first episode of the anime "My name is mt".

After all the design documents were completed, Chen Mo found Su Jinyu and asked her to enter all the design document rules into the editor to generate the initial project of "My name is mt".

Su Jinyu and Wen Lingwei have each completed the coloring of four cards. Chen Mo took a look and had to say that the hand-painting skills of these two are very strong, and the detail and beauty of the cards are completely comparable to the original ones.

Of course, some details are not exactly the same as the image in the previous life, but it doesn't matter, such details have little influence.

Su Jinyu accepted the design document sent by Chen Mo.

Chen Mo said: "All the design documents are here, the only difference is the numerical value and level structure, as well as the specific configuration of card attributes. Let's complete the basic rules in the editor first, and add the follow-up content slowly."

Su Jinyu was surprised: "All documents? Finished in a week?!"

No wonder she was surprised. At that time, Chen Mo asked her to complete the two small functions of the new version of "Plants vs. Zombies". She wrote both for nearly two weeks. As a result, Chen Mo published all the design documents of the entire game in one week!

This efficiency is simply like hanging!

Chen Mo said: "Open the document and have a look. If there is anything you don't understand, ask me at any time. I will continue to work on the values and levels."

Chen Mo briefly explained a few words and returned to the second floor.

Su Jinyu opened the design document sent by Chen Mo. She was also curious, what kind of game did Chen Mo plan to use for such an important bet

Before, Chen Mo arranged for card drawing and contacted the animation production company. What exactly did he want to do? Especially animation production, what does this have to do with games

Judging from the current situation, Su Jinyu had no idea what kind of game Chen Mo wanted to make.

Wen Lingwei, Jia Peng and others also came over.

Wen Lingwei leaned on the bar counter: "I want to see what kind of game the store manager plans to develop."

Jia Peng coughed twice: "Sister, can you really understand this document?"

Wen Lingwei glanced at him: "If you don't understand, so what? Goldfish, explain to me."

Su Jinyu: "..."

Go through it document by document.

interface layout.

Basic combat.

daily activities.

During this process, Su Jinyu's doubts did not decrease at all, but increased instead.

After closing the last document, Su Jinyu was at a loss.

"That's the end? That's all? This is too simple! The content of this game seems to be far worse than that of "Plants vs. Zombies!" Su Jinyu was surprised.

Wen Lingwei frowned and said, "What's wrong? Explain, how is this game?"

Jia Peng wiped his sweat: "Although I basically can't understand it, but... I always feel that these documents don't seem to talk about anything. Is the content a little less?"

Su Jinyu opened the basic combat document again, and read the combat rules again.

On the vertical mobile phone screen, our team and the enemy occupy six grids each (the layout may change slightly when the enemy is a boss), and we will launch attacks sequentially from the first position...

Su Jinyu read the battle rules again.

"Indeed, that's all! This is too simple! This is not as good as "Plants vs. Zombies"!"

Su Jinyu couldn't believe her eyes, let alone Chen Mo throwing out such a design document in such a perfunctory manner.

You know, "Plants vs. Zombies" is still a real-time system, but the new game directly degenerates into a turn-based system!

The turn-based system doesn't matter, the key is that during the battle, it's just a bunch of cards fighting. During the whole process, players don't need any other operations except changing the position of the cards!

It's like child's play.

Su Jinyu couldn't make up the scene of the battle, but felt very hot eyes. Melee with a bunch of cards? Can you be any more stupid

Moreover, what the hell is this aristocratic system

V12 actually needs 500,000 runestones? !

Renminbi to buy runestones is 1 yuan to buy 10 runestones, which means that it costs 50,000 yuan to become v12? !

five! Ten thousand! piece! money!

Su Jinyu didn't understand the significance of this move. Who would spend 50,000 yuan in this game

How much delicious food can 50,000 yuan buy!

How many clothes can you buy!

How many movies can I watch!

How many digital products can you buy!

How could anyone spend fifty thousand dollars on this game? !

And, check out these VIP perks!

The number of daily stamina purchases is increased, leadership is improved, and the number of various gameplays is increased! There is also an exclusive VIP gift bag!

And what the hell is this recharge reward? Why are there cards in the recharge reward? Recharge 20,000 runestones and get an exclusive card big sister!

2000 yuan, this is an obvious grab!

Su Jinyu has only one expression for these design documents: "No fuck!"

"Shop Manager, even though you've been betting money with others every month, but... the intention of making money is too naked!"

"No, I have to ask the store manager what's going on!"

Su Jinyu went upstairs.

Jia Peng looked at Wen Lingwei, and Wen Lingwei also looked at Jia Peng.

"What should I do, senior sister?" Jia Peng asked.

Wen Lingwei: "I don't know, just pretend nothing happened. Go back to each house and find your own mother. Don't meddle in things you don't understand. Let Jinyu and the store manager fight."

Jia Peng: "..."

Why are you so open-minded? Hey!
