Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

  The outside world is talking about this new company, mainly because of Lorenzo and the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars.

  As for the game producer himself, it seems to have become a little transparent existence.

  Many self-proclaimed game industry professionals analyzed in various media.

  From the capital reserve of the company’s establishment, to the resume of the company’s core producer Mr. Nintendo, and then the size of the company’s personnel.

  The final conclusion is that this company may not make much money.

  Even if you make money, it may take decades to pay back.

  The investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is a bit of a loss.

These professionals are more implying in the media that other capital tycoons can invest in themselves, that they have greater potential than Nintendo, have experience in developing large-scale games, and have sufficient manpower. Unlike Nintendo, starting a company requires first Get enough people.

   Moreover, it is said that more than half of the people gathered are college students who have just graduated.

That's it?

   Such a game company brazenly talks about building a large-scale game from the very beginning, and many people can't help but laugh out loud.

   Let’s go back to the battle royale game, so far no company has been able to make money. It seems a bit ridiculous for a new company to talk about making money when it first comes up.

  The outside world is full of doubts, but the interior of the new company Nintendo is calm.

  Employees throughout the company have no intention of paying attention to outside discussions.

  Because if the work is not done, the bonus may be affected.

  Let’s not talk about what the game made by this company will be like, no overtime, and bonuses for finishing the work quickly. This is not something other companies can easily give.

   Such a boss is still very good.

   Except for one thing that is confusing.

   That is the headgear that the boss has been wearing with a smiley face mask since the meeting until now.

   Isn't he hot?

  Everyone is skeptical.

  Why is this Nintendo so mysterious, even the voice seems to have been changed.

  It's okay to hide it from the outside world, why do you have to hide it from your own company?

   I don’t understand, I don’t understand.

   Of course the boss is still a good boss.

   "The restriction given to the player is to shrink the map every time for a period of time, forcing the player to squeeze towards a certain center position."

  Zhu Youxing wears a huge smiling headgear and guides game development behind a programmer.

   "Shrinking the map? Does that mean destroying the entire map? This is a bit technically difficult."

  Programmers are a little bit embarrassed.

"Of course not. It's actually very simple. You only need to set a circle in the program, and then set a fixed time to let the circle shrink slowly. Players outside the circle will not be eliminated immediately, but will gradually lose blood. That'll be fine."

   "That's it... that seems a little easier, I'll try to do it."

  The programmer seems to understand that this is indeed much simpler than previously imagined, just adding some mechanism settings to the map.

  Marcus occasionally observes the movement of Zhuyouxing,

  He will go to the program development area to guide the development of functional gameplay, and then he will go to the art team to guide the creation of art.

  The program is as simple and efficient as possible, without redundant content, and the art is mainly cartoon, which can minimize the workload and at the same time not make the game look too mediocre.

  Marcus also found more and more that the development of this game was very smooth.

  Is the strength of the world's number one independent game producer so powerful?

  He thought Mr. Nintendo was just a guy who liked to fight alone, and he was definitely not very good at developing games in teams.

   Being favored by Lorenzo is like winning the lottery.

   But judging from the progress of work in the past month, Lorenzo is obviously quite ahead of his time.

  Mr. Nintendo's game development management ability and foresight are unparalleled.

  Usually the development of a game will go through project approval first, and then it will take several months to determine the general direction and core gameplay content of a game.

   Then this direction and gameplay content will continue to change during the development process.

  Because not all gameplay can be created immediately.

  Some game producers propose too outrageous gameplay, which will cause the finished product of game development to be seriously out of touch with the pre-imagined.

   Infinite Worlds was one such game from the start.

  There is a very big gap between publicity and expectations.

  If it weren't for the good reputation that was slowly reversed later, this game would probably become one of countless bad games.

  Of course, this game was really lucky to be embraced by Youxing Electronic Entertainment and won the support of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

   This is also a lucky part.

  Mr. Nintendo, the gameplay he developed is very mature.

  Sometimes even the gameplay that programmers come up with is too complicated, and Mr. Nintendo will take the initiative to lower the difficulty, and realize it with the most concise program under the premise of ensuring the gameplay.

   Judging from this efficiency, it seems that it is really possible to develop this game within half a year.

  Actually, Fortnite is not a difficult game to develop.

  One hundred people gather on a large map, and then add the settings of the poisonous circle, and then add the settings of construction and dismantling, and the playing time is controlled within 30 minutes.

   In fact, the prototype of this game has basically been completed, and the rest is to add details to this game.

  Lorenzo bought the company the right to use the full-featured Unreal Engine for two years with a big wave of his hand, which greatly improved their development efficiency.

  With the blessing of Unreal Engine, the development speed of this game has soared like a rocket.

   It only took two months for the follow-up, the basic framework and prototype of the game have been completed, and it is no longer a problem to directly use it to get started.

   At this time, Lorenzo appeared again, and he came forward to obtain the Morgan Group's cloud server service at a lower price to ensure that players will not have any network problems when playing in online mode.

  Morgan Group started out with operating systems and the Internet. They claim to be the number one in terms of network services. Few companies really dare to challenge their status.

   Then when the development came to the third month, the development of Fortnite was basically completed, and the efficiency was unusually high.

   And this only took more than a hundred people.

"Very well, everyone has worked hard. The game you have made is very good. If there are no accidents, this game will undergo the first round of Internet testing in a week, and then it will be officially released. If everything goes well, maybe in In two months we can witness a miracle."

  Three months, and three months with almost no overtime, just finished a game of good quality, and the more than one hundred people felt a little dazed.

  They also noticed that such a battle royale game is indeed too simple.

  There are just a few ways to play, and because of the cartoon style, there is no need for realistic graphics, and the performance requirements for computers and game consoles are even lowered to freezing point.

   Reached the point where notebooks seven or eight years ago could barely run games smoothly.

  Marcus himself felt unbelievable, this game... just finished like this?
