Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Chapter 81: Preparation before the exhibition

Views:

Looking at the cardboard boxes brought by Chen Xu and Lin Rou, everyone looked curious.

The box was quite large, almost half a person tall, and from the outside it was impossible to tell what was inside.

"Mr. Chen, what's in this?" Ruan Ningxue was a little curious.

"Is it a custom-made exhibition sculpture? But hasn't it been shipped before?" Qin Yida said.

Obviously everyone is curious about this big box.

Moreover, Chen Xu and Lin Rou just moved here, so obviously it shouldn't be too heavy.

"Cosplay clothes for our showgirls." Chen Xu said with a smile.

Coser suit!

In an instant, Qin Yi's eyes lit up as he waited for a group of male employees.

At this moment, they thought of the original paintings of the female characters such as Sun Shangxiang and Xiao Qiao in "Three Kingdoms".

However, as Chen Xu used scissors to cut the seal of the box, everyone's expressions became very strange.

Because what was in the box was not the Coser suit they imagined.

But a colorful doll set.

Hmm... the suit of the Fall Beans in "Fall Beans".

It looks fluffy and very substantial.

So, is this what we call playing something different

"In this exhibition, "Follow Bean Man" can be said to be our trump card. As for "Three Kingdoms", in terms of popularity, it is actually not as high as "Follow Bean Man".

"Come to think of it, other manufacturers are all female cosplayers, and players will always feel a little tired of aesthetics. In this case, we are definitely unique." Chen Xu said with a smile.

This was what he had thought about two months ago when he decided to make the game "Jelly Bean Man".

Female cosplayers are indeed very tempting.

But obviously it's still difficult to completely rely on this kind of thing to attract players.

And there are seven exhibition areas, and there are countless game companies, large and small.

Basically, all the games are female cosplayers, which can easily cause players to experience aesthetic fatigue.

But "Jelly Beans" is different.

It's a fun style of sand sculpture, which happens to be very consistent with the characteristics of the game.

When it comes to attracting attention, Chen Xu believes that he will never lag behind others.

Of course, one point is also crucial.

That’s because Nebula Games currently doesn’t really have any characters suitable for female cosplayers.

The most powerful weapon "Magic Mirror" cannot be on the exhibition stage due to its powerful power of harmony, so we can only change the route.

After listening to Chen Xu's words and taking a look at the various jelly bean costumes, everyone had to admit one thing.

Put it on a game show, it seems to be really eye-catching.

Especially in "Kitchen Kitchen", most of the characters are basically in doll costumes.

Imagine that other game manufacturers are all white-legged, but here they are like a children's paradise. It's hard not to attract attention.

Of course, these are all off-board moves, and the real thing is the game.

After all, "Jelly Bean Man" can attract players' attention for a moment, but it cannot attract players' attention for a lifetime.

As the saying goes, men are only divided into sex groups and old sex groups.

The toy man and the big white legs, you may look at the toy man out of curiosity, but your eyes will eventually return to the big white legs.

But the game is different.

Big white legs

What is that? Don’t interfere with me playing games!

So for this exhibition, during the previous research and development.

Whether it is "Three Kingdoms" or "Fall Bean Man", Chen Xu has developed double-ended games.

That is, PC and mobile platforms.

Ensure that players can experience the charm of the game.

… … … …

As the days passed, the game entered its final testing phase.

Chen Xu of Nebula Games also communicated with the exhibition and began to prepare in advance.

As the day progresses.

Players in the gaming circle have also begun to discuss this gameplay exhibition.

"There seems to be no news about new games recently!"

"The Gameplay Expo is coming soon. Based on the situation in previous years, various manufacturers are probably holding back and preparing to break news at the exhibition."

“Is anyone planning to go to this year’s exhibition?”

"It may not be interesting. It's probably another two-person stage play by NetDragon or Tenghua."

"Indeed, if it's a masterpiece, it's probably only these two that can take a look. Even if other game manufacturers have estimates, it will be difficult to release it at the exhibition. After all, they won't be able to grab the popularity."

"Don't always pay attention to the masterpieces. Although the masterpieces are fun to play, there are not only those few masterpieces all year round. I think everyone can pay attention to independent games."

"When talking about independent games, I think of Chen Xu. It must have been the biggest surprise in the gaming industry last year, right?"

"Brother upstairs, I think the surprise and joy can be separated."

"That's right, I still remember his words 'Soldier of Love' to this day. I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"I saw on Chen Xu's official blog that he seemed to have posted a message saying that he would participate. I wonder if Chen Xu will bring any special games to this exhibition!"

"Isn't it possible? It's only been two months since "The Kitchen". What can you do?"

"A new player, right? Chen Xu is very fast at making games. If you look at "To the Moon", "Escape" and then "Kitchen", the time in between is not long, and I heard that Chen Xu's company has expanded."

"Yes, and it doesn't have to be online to be called a new game. There may be some trial demos. Isn't it the same with other game manufacturers?"

"That's right. I hope there will be a little surprise then."

"Don't be surprised. "Kitchen" and "Escape" brought me too many 'surprises'."

While the players were discussing.

… … … …

Magic City, the center of the gameplay exhibition hall.

Chen Xu had already arrived with Ruan Ningxue, Yang Xin and Qin Yi and began to arrange the scene.

Located in Hall 6.

In terms of location, it can be said to be a relatively good location.

Belongs to the central area.

This time, Chen Xu plans to divide his exhibition area into three main parts.

One is for its old games that are already online, such as "To the Moon", "Undertale" and "Kitchen".

As for the other two areas, they are "Three Kingdoms" and "Jelly Bean Man" respectively.

As for the Nebula Games showcase program, rehearsals are also underway.

There are men and women among these individuals.

But at this time, everyone looked at the dolls of different shapes in the big box backstage, and they all looked confused.

Especially the female cosplayers looked confused.

Before they received the order from Nebula Games, were they still thinking that this game company would attract attention by showing off their sexiness, otherwise the price would be much higher than that of other game manufacturers.

but now

Boy, they think too much.

This doll's costume is indistinguishable from male to female, not to mention showing off her big white legs.

The specially customized doll head can't even show its eyes.

"Everyone can act funny and exaggerated at that time, but of course you have to pay attention to your own safety."

"The platforms will be rotated when the time comes and you will make your own arrangements. Ice and water will be prepared backstage. If you feel any discomfort, you must tell us in advance." Chen Xu also told the relevant staff in his exhibition area what they need to pay attention to. matter.

After all, safety must be taken seriously. If something happens, it will be a big problem.

After briefly speaking, Chen Xu also found a stool to sit and rest.

The coser over there and the marketing manager of Nebula Games are discussing and determining what method should be used to attract players.
