Popular recommendation:

The design competition held by Chen Mo is held twice a year, in March after each year, and in July during the graduation season.

The design competition in July of the graduation season is open to all current students, and all students with a university degree or above can sign up.

The design competition in March of the following year is mainly for designers in the industry, whether they are independent designers or designers of other companies, they can sign up to participate.

The list of participating personnel will undergo a preliminary review. After those who do not meet the requirements are screened out, other contestants will go through preliminary rounds, semi-finals and finals to finally select the best designer.

The preliminary rounds were distributed in more than 20 major cities across the country, and the semi-finals and finals were held in the imperial capital. For this year's competition, Chen Mo is considering renting a venue in the imperial capital. After the completion of the new headquarters next year, he can go to the new headquarters to hold it.

These two times have also been considered. In July, the graduates have just graduated and are still struggling to find a job. In March, there will be a routine wave of resignations in the IT industry, and many capable designers will choose Find another way out during this time.

Moreover, the staggering of the two times also ensures the fairness of the competition, and the graduates will not mix with senior designers in the industry.

Different from previous competitions, the designers will know the specific topic of the competition when they arrive at the scene, write design drafts and produce on the spot. If it is some very large games, then you can only write a more detailed design concept draft, and if the judges are interested in the concept draft, you can continue to make it later.

When it comes to the semi-finals and finals, the designers will conduct game design in the official venue, which may last for a week or even a month, which is enough time for them to develop medium-sized or even large-scale games.

The judges for these design competitions are some senior independent designers on Thunder Game Platform, such as Li Feng, Zhou Haibin, Qiu Hengyang and so on.

These designers have worked with Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform for a long time, and they all have their own representative works, and they are very happy to participate in this game design competition. On the one hand, it is to make some contributions to the development of the entire game industry together with Chen Mo, and on the other hand, it is also to show their faces in front of the public. After all, this game design competition may be broadcast live at that time. Many players, game lovers and Anyone in the industry will see it.

The specific competition rules still need to be formulated in detail, but Chen Mo's idea is very clear, that is, to make Thunder Interactive Entertainment's game design competition the largest, fairest, most professional and promising design competition in China.

He hopes that this design competition can catch all outstanding graduates who want to enter the game industry, as well as outstanding independent designers in the industry, so that this design competition can ignite people's enthusiasm for the game industry, and it can also be used as a large-scale recruitment for Thunder Interactive Entertainment will exist.

As for the competition rewards, they are naturally the most generous.

In addition to the regular bonuses and prizes, Chen Mo will look at the works of all the designers who entered the finals one by one, and decide who to send invitations to.

Of course, there are many senior designers as judges in the competition. They have their own judgments on the works, and the competition will also have corresponding rules. And Chen Mo's preferences are independent of all the judges, even if a designer is not favored by all the judges, as long as Chen Mo thinks it's ok.

These designers who are favored by Chen Mo can choose independently, or join Thunder Interactive Entertainment as employees, or become independent game designers and cooperate with Thunder Game Platform.

These two options have their own advantages and disadvantages. As an independent designer, the income will be very unstable, but you can design games independently. The Thunder game platform will have a special recommendation mechanism for these people, allowing more players to understand these designers and them. s work.

Whether it is an employee of Thunder Interactive Entertainment or an independent game designer approved by Chen Mo on the Thunder Game Platform, they can all get a place in the new headquarters of Thunder Interactive Entertainment.

This also paved the way for Chen Mo's future plans.

So far, Chen Mo's team has maintained a relatively small scale. When he makes games, he will also choose the best choice according to the team's situation.

However, future games will inevitably develop to a larger scale.

Based on the current scale of the office area of the new headquarters, the existing Leiting Huyu employees may not even be able to fill one-tenth of the first floor, and the rest is room for expansion.

In the future, Chen Mo may develop an extremely large world, or even a multi-dimensional collection of many worlds.

For example, in some networks, players can travel freely in many worlds, each world has different tasks and mysteries, and there is a unified will in all worlds...

Obviously, no matter how complex and huge the game is, it is designed bit by bit by the designer, and produced by the entire R&D team bit by bit, without any possibility of opportunism.

If this kind of game is to be developed, it is impossible for Chen Mo to complete all the worlds by himself. This requires an extremely large R&D team to be responsible for each part in order to really do it well.

Therefore, Chen Mo recruited these excellent designers now to prepare for the future. If you want to independently design this "infinite flow" game world, then these excellent designers can each be responsible for a world, and Chen Mo only needs to check the final checks and screen them one by one.

Even if these large-scale games are not produced in the short term, these designers can still develop their own works, and there will be no delay anyway.

This is why it is said that currently only Chen Mo has the qualifications to hold such a large-scale game design competition in China.

Because of appeal.

At present, none of the domestic designers can reach Chen Mo's appeal.

Chen Mo has successful works in various game fields. He has made competitive games that are popular all over the world, as well as high-quality vr games, and won the best of the year. For other designers, Chen Mo is the strongest designer in China. At the same time, Leiting Huyu has sufficient funds and strong channels. With a large number of players in hand, its appeal is self-evident.

After roughly finalizing the rules of the game design competition, it is almost time to start warming up.

It will not be held in March next year, because the competition rules for designers in the industry are more complicated and there is not enough time for preparation.

Thunder Interactive Entertainment's first game design competition is scheduled to be held in July next year, but before that, we can let the news out in advance, so that those graduates who are interested in participating can prepare in advance, and regard this game design competition as a graduation One of the last life choices.
