God-level game designer starts with scared crying anchor

Chapter 74 Misty Asgard Cup Game Design Grand Prix
January NO.17, Monday.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. After going through the most difficult early stage, and the friends including Lin Qingyao gradually getting into the mood, the development of "Survival Battle" is finally on the right track.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

In the office, Xun Ze was helping to test the melee feel of the characters in "Survival" when he suddenly received a text message on his phone.

He opened it and found that it was sent by Piaomiao Xiangong.

"Hello, respected game designer, the Piaomiao Asgard Cup Game Design Grand Prix is ​​open again, and I look forward to your participation. For details, please click the link..."

"Game Design Grand Prix?" Xun Ze raised his eyebrows slightly, and he clicked the link after confirming that it was not a phishing website.

The phone interface then jumps to the homepage of Misty Fairy Palace. The most prominent place on the homepage is the promotional poster of this competition.

After entering the details page, Xun Ze spent about 5 minutes getting a general understanding of the content of the competition.

Generally speaking, Misty Asgard will hold a game design grand prix from time to time, and the game designers who get the top ten in the competition will be rewarded accordingly.

No.1 can get the official promotion of Misty Fairy Palace.

Don't look at Piaomiao Xiangong as a game editor and the largest official regulatory organization of the game industry in Shending.

But it can be said that there are hundreds of millions of people who browse the official website of Piaomiao Xiangong every day.

Because even if it is a big game platform, the game they recommend may push a bad game to players for various reasons.

But Piaomiao Xiangong will not do such a thing, which capital can bribe Piaomiao Xiangong?

If someone really did that, not only would they fail to achieve their goals, but they would also be arrested for bribery.

Therefore, as long as it is a game recommended by Piaomiao Xiangong, players will basically start with no brains. Even if it is not a 3A masterpiece, it will at least be a masterpiece of the same type of game.

And to be recommended by Piaomiao Xiangong, either the sales volume and ratings have reached a certain height, or they must participate in the game design grand prix held by Piaomiao Xiangong.

The former is undoubtedly very difficult for most game designers. Even Xun Ze's three games failed to be recommended on the homepage of Piaomiao Xiangong.

His game score meets the requirements, but the problem is that his sales are not enough, so every time he falls short.

The Game Grand Prix gives game designers an excellent opportunity to promote their games.

Many game designers became higher star game designers by virtue of winning No.1 in the competition and then being recommended by the homepage of Misty Immortal Palace.

It is worth mentioning that the game design grand prix held by Misty Asgard also has another important purpose, which is to provide a relatively fair competitive environment for newcomer game designers.

In other environments, limited by fame, funds, platforms, etc., it is more difficult for newcomer game designers to succeed in their games.

But in the Game Design Grand Prix, no matter whose game it is, you can see it on the competition page, even if you are a newcomer game designer, as long as your game is fun enough, you are not afraid of being buried.

Therefore, the theme given by the Game Design Grand Prix each time is relatively simple, in order to take care of the embarrassment of insufficient funds that newcomer game designers may encounter.

After all, if the given theme is a hard-core theme such as "war" and "universe", although a game that fits the theme can be made at a small cost, it will definitely be overwhelmed by a high-cost game.

In the case of similar gameplay, the most intuitive picture is enough to determine the winner.

The theme of the Game Design Grand Prix this time is "Casual Puzzle Games".

As long as the game allows players to pass the time easily in their spare time, it can be included in the category of casual puzzle games.

Such as greedy snake, Xiaoxiaole, Lianliankan and so on.

"Well... "Survival War" is going well now, and I'm not in a hurry to release the game, so I can polish it."

"You can participate in this competition. One is the recommendation on the homepage of Misty Immortal Palace, which is a rare and good thing. The other is that during the blank period of developing "Survival Battle", you can properly refresh your sense of existence."

"The most important thing is that after getting No.1, it can accumulate a lot of attention, which is also good for the release of "Survival Battle"."

Although the award-winning game can only be recommended on the homepage for a month, players will definitely follow the recommendation to see if the No.1 game designer has similar games.

Even if not, will try to play other games of the designer.

This is why some game designers can use this to reach higher stars, because with attention and fame, the sales of the game will naturally increase.

"Then what game should we use for the competition?" Xun Ze propped his head with his right hand, and the names of the games appeared in his mind.

"Since it is to pave the way for "Battle of Survival", then make a game with the same elements as "Battle of Survival"..."

"Zombies... zombie waves... shooting..."

Thinking of this, Xun Ze's eyes brightened and he said, "It's up to you! "Plants vs. Zombies"!"

"Plants vs. Zombies" can also be regarded as a casual puzzle game. In the game, players have to use plants to defend the line and face a large wave of zombies from time to time.

This is exactly the same as "Survival War", which can be called the cartoon version of "Survival War".

After all, when a pea shooter shoots peas, it's considered shooting!It's just that the pea shooter will move by itself, without the player pulling the trigger.

"Well...the competition time is two months, which is really enough for a casual puzzle game..."

"But for "Plants vs. Zombies", it's a bit tight..."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as you arrange the time well, it's still completely in time..."

Thinking of this, Xun Ze clicked on the registration page, filled in his information in detail and without error and submitted it, Xun Ze's profile picture and name appeared in the list of contestants.

Xun Ze looked at the list, good guy!The number of people is not ordinary, at least hundreds of people signed up.

And the number is still increasing. Xun Ze is not the only game designer who wants to win the competition.

At the same time, Xun Ze also found that many of the applicants were game designers who were backed by behemoths.

For example, Emperor Penguin Games, Canopy Games, and old friend Yiwang Games.

In addition, there are quite a few Samsung game designers.

As for four-star game designers, there are none, let alone five-star game designers.

Because they might have been invited by Piaomiao Xiangong to be judges long ago, so it is naturally impossible for them to appear in the list of contestants.

This is a good thing for other game designers, but for Xun Ze, it is not so interesting.

If he can defeat a five-star game designer in this competition, his fame will take off like a rocket.

But it doesn't matter, defeating many Samsung game designers, the effect will not be too bad.
