Mumbling something in despair, Chen Wenchao left the computer room holding the USB flash drive.
Looking at his back, Hao Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Is this what it feels like to be a top student
Love it, love it...
However, although this feeling is quite intoxicating, Hao Yun also knows very well that there are less than 10 hours left before the expiration of the inspiration gem.
Without wasting time on savoring this intoxicating pleasure, Hao Yun skillfully opened the search engine and typed in the four numbers 2048.
To his surprise, this game does not exist in this world, and there is not even a similar competing product.
In fact, to put it bluntly, the earth in the parallel world is not quite the same as the earth in his previous life.
The physical construction of this world is obviously more prosperous, especially for Xia Guo, the winner of the "Competition Era" and the leader of the People's Federation. Even the computers in the school computer room use independent graphics + quad-core processors, and from now on Everything from chips to systems are made in China.
But relatively speaking, because until the first year of the new calendar year, the international environment of the entire world was in a state of high tension, it was not until after the first year of the new calendar year that the seeds of the entertainment industry began to grow.
Emerging industries such as electronic games only began to enter the homes of ordinary people along with smart devices such as computers and mobile phones only after the first year of the New Year with the transformation of military production lines and the civilianization of the electronics industry.
According to Dad, when he was just two years old, game consoles were still a rarity, and most popular songs praised social stability and prosperity, as well as the unity and great victory of the People's Federation. Until he was ten years old, The global entertainment industry is truly flourishing.
It is precisely because of this that video games in this era are still in a rather chaotic stage.
First of all, due to the strict protection of copyright laws, the development of online games and stand-alone markets in Xia Kingdom and even the world has been relatively balanced, and mobile games have not dominated the world like in the previous life.
And as a major tool for cultural export in the new era, some high-quality niche games can also be supported by relevant departments without discrimination, just like music, animation and movies, instead of treating them as scourges.
It's just that maybe because of the lack of time, some creative gameplay and ideas have been ignored by the times.
At least from the perspective of Hao Yun, a game planner and hardcore player, Oracle, the most popular large-scale MMORPG today, is quite boring in terms of gameplay and plot.
The graphics may be a highlight.
After all, the Xia State in the 18th year of the New Calendar had an unusually strong hard power in the electronics industry.
And game developers also have the confidence to make the graphics and special effects bigger and stronger.
"The largest game platform in Xia Guo is the Dianqu Platform under Dianqu Technology. The basic contract share for independent game producers is 50% before tax... At present, it should be the highest basic share ratio in the industry, and the most liberal listing policy platform.”
"This is it!"
With his eyes shining, Hao Yun downloaded the free development tools from the cooperation page of the official website.
Although making a game is a lot of work, it depends on the game.
For a small game like 2048, where even the graphics can be replaced with free materials on PPT, he can finish it in an afternoon at most.
No, it might not even take that long.
There are only two basic modules that need to be developed, one is the game itself, and the other is the ranking system.
The latter has ready-made templates to use, and the former is not very complicated. After all, the rules of the game itself are very simple.
That is, by moving up, down, left, and right, two identical numbers are added together, while two dissimilar numbers will not be merged. When all the grids are full and cannot be moved, it is judged as a loss. When 2048 appears in all the numbers, it is judged as a win. Basically, these operations can be realized with the help of arrays and functions.
After winning the game, you can continue playing, and the maximum number will be taken as the score and included in the ranking list.
Because the free development tools provided on the official website are so powerful, Hao Yun even feels that even people with no programming experience can restore the game with the help of the functions on the development tools.
The only difference is probably just a matter of program quality.
But Hao Yun is still very doubtful. Is there really any difference in quality for such a low-level game
He was busy until 5 p.m., and after finishing all the development work, Hao Yun played a few games and tested it.
After confirming that there were no problems, he packaged all the programs in the format required by the Dianqu official website and dragged them to the folder to be uploaded.
"If it can reach 100,000 downloads, the system's mission will be completed."
Hao Yun, who was about to complete his work, curled up a cheerful smile and leaned back on the chair comfortably.
"If the game is put on the shelves at the lowest price of one yuan, the pre-tax income will be 50,000 yuan... I don't know if individual game producers who have not registered a company can apply for tax incentives."
Fifty thousand yuan!
Not to mention paying that guy a screen, I can afford to pay for a mobile phone.
If everything goes well, he might not have to worry about his family paying for next year's tuition.
But to be honest, Hao Yun actually had no idea about the contents of his YY.
After all, the capacity occupied by this game might not be as large as a large high-definition picture, and what is popular in this world are large-scale client games with awesome graphics and rich social attributes.
Games
It is hard to say whether there is soil for survival.
but…
He just had no better choice.
The mouse clicked on the upload button. Hao Yun was about to stretch and turn off the computer, but the dialog box that suddenly popped up on the screen made him slightly startled.
[Please select mode of payment]
payment method
What the hell.
Hao Yun, who was vaguely aware that something was wrong, quickly opened the description of the game on the official website of Dianqu, and didn't realize it until he read the last line.
It took a long time to put the game on the shelves, but it was still not free. The registration fee was 2,000 yuan!
Gan!
I haven't even made any money yet, so I want you to pay for it first.
Isn’t this unscrupulous manufacturer a rip-off? !
Looking at this threshold which was not very high but could just stop him, Hao Yun fell into silence.
Let alone 2,000 yuan, the total money in his pocket could not even make up 800 yuan. If you don't find a part-time job, you may not be able to save enough 2,000 yuan by the end of the year if you live frugally.
Borrow from home
What reasons can be used
Although the Xia Kingdom in this life does not regard video games as a scourge, those parents who were born in the old calendar may not all think so.
Hao Yun felt that if he asked for money, he would probably not be able to continue the conversation with his father if he mentioned the word game.
or…
Looking for a platform where you can distribute games for free
But the traffic of most such platforms is very low...
For this crappy game, let alone the price of one yuan, even if it is free for people to play, I'm afraid it won't be able to get 100,000 players.
For a time, Hao Yun was in trouble.
But just when he was struggling, the mobile phone with pre-saved phone bills suddenly vibrated.
After two seconds of lag, a message popped up.
I took a look at the note and it said creditor.
Hao Yun picked up the phone with a look of helplessness and unlocked the screen.
[Hey, it’s been a few days, when are you going to pay me back? (Knife)]
[It’s only 3,000 yuan. How dare you, a grown man, delay me for so long? (｀д′)]
[I'm warning you, if you dare to default on your debt, I won't let you go! I'm super serious! (｀へ′)]
The murderous aura of debt collection almost penetrated the screen, and Hao Yun couldn't help but move the phone half an inch away.
Why are you urging me? Is it annoying to urge me every few hours? Are you the kind of person who is a deadbeat
Isn't it just three thousand yuan
Who are you looking down on
"Can you lend me another two thousand? I'll pay you back together before the end of the month."
Afraid that she wouldn't borrow it, Hao Yun pressed the voice button and hesitated for a moment, then added another sentence.
"Urgent!"
