Chapter 7 Game R&D Direction

From the moment of rebirth, Bao Zixuan decided to start with the game first to earn his first pot of gold, and then he had already listed the games he wanted to develop.

Tetris, the masterpiece of the game world, was developed by the Russians in 1984 to test the performance of computers, and it can be said to have a pivotal position in the history of world games. Nintendo basically got the agency rights at the price of cabbage, which made the former author Alexei Pagitnov basically get little benefits and benefits other than fame.

Although it was 7 years earlier, the performance of the IBM minicomputer is definitely stronger than the 84-year-old personal computer that was used to test it at that time. And it's just an ordinary 2D mini-game, which doesn't need to have too high requirements for computer computing speed, and the computer performance is completely sufficient. It took Alexei Pajitnov only 9 days to complete the programming. And Bao Zixuan, who knew the principle of operation, had no reason to lag behind him, so Bao Zixuan started his own programming while asking lawyer He Mingcheng to register a company to find a factory.

Although I am not very familiar with the current computer system, I still get started quickly with my understanding of computers in two lifetimes. Tetris will become a thing of the past in the future, and now there are only Xiangjiang squares, and the author must be Bao Zixuan. In the future, if Alexei Pagetnov has any difficulties or wants to come to work in his own company, then give him more salary! Now I can only say sorry to him.

The Xiangjiang Cube (formerly Tetris, which will not be mentioned later) is a flat virtual field for placing small squares, with a standard size of 10 row widths and 20 column heights. With each small square as a unit,A group of regular graphics composed of 4 small squares,There are 7 kinds of main graphics in the early stage,How much will be increased in the future according to the upgrade of the game,But it will always be the most classic in the early version。

Bao Zixuan began to build a flat virtual venue, which was not very complicated for him. It only took him one night to set up a flat virtual venue, and this was when the computer system was not fully proficient. During this period, Li Yulin came to his room twice, once to bring him fruit, and the second time was at 12 o'clock in the evening, and came to let him rest and pay attention to the combination of work and rest.

Bao Zixuan didn't want to waste a little time, but seeing Li Yulin's concerned eyes, he went to sleep after building the flat virtual venue at 1:30 in the morning. He knew that if he didn't sleep, Li Yulin wouldn't sleep. After watching her son take a bath, Li Yulin rested.

Bao Zixuan got up at 7 o'clock in the morning the next morning, looked at the breakfast on the table and knew that Li Yulin had gone to the store, and he wrote a note saying that he would come back at noon to cook for him. After he finished breakfast and went to the community to exercise for a lap, he started his work on time at 9 o'clock in the morning, the Russians took 9 days, he had to compress the time, and now he had to reserve more resources and strength to complete what he wanted.

Today's main task is to model 7 different shapes of squares, Bao Zixuan works on the computer in addition to going to the bathroom in the morning. By the time Li Yulin finished making lunch, he had already completed the modeling of the 4 types of blocks, and it seemed that he would be able to complete the block model tonight. Li Yulin also found that her son had changed, he had become a little stranger, he was not so close to himself, and it was impossible for the child who came back from vacation to help in the store to come back, this is probably the growth after studying in the UK! Every mother is expected to have a son Jackie Chan's heart, but they still hope that their son has a dependence on themselves, which may be a common problem of parents all over the world, and it is difficult to change, when the two are eating.

Li Yulin: "Ah Xuan, although I don't know what you're doing, I don't understand it, and I can't help much. But also pay attention to your body, don't exhaust yourself, and sometimes have a good rest. There is nothing to do in the store in the afternoon, I have already explained to Lao Liu and them in the past few days, I will accompany you and take care of you in the past few days. ”

Bao Zixuan: "Mommy, it's okay, I'll pay attention, you don't have to take care of me, but you can take a good rest." It's so tiring to watch you work like this every day. ”

Li Yulin: "I don't care, now you have to listen to me before you get married, sleep for two hours in the afternoon." I'm looking at you. ”

Looking at Li Yulin's serious and concerned expression, "Okay! I'll listen to you." Bao Zixuan replied. The two men began to eat. After refusing Bao Zixuan's help to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Li Yulin asked him to rest. And it was a state of command that could not be refused, and he had to set an alarm clock and prepare to sleep for two hours.

When Bao Zixuan got up, he looked at the time and it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and it turned out that Li Yulin turned off the alarm clock while he was asleep. I had no choice but to start working from scratch, and I had to add blocks to the progress.

In the case of Bao Zixuan's non-stop programming every day, a simple version of the Xiangjiang cube was soon completed. The rest of the content is filled in, mainly by asking the soundtrack teacher to do the soundtrack and the beauty artist to do the art rendering. After playing for a day and fixing a few bugs, I nodded with satisfaction, did it only take half of the time of the original author?

And at this time, the phone at home rang. When Li Yulin chatted with the person on the other end of the phone, she knocked on the door of Bao Zixuan's room and said, "Ah Xuan, Lawyer He is looking for you." ”

After Bao Zixuan took the phone: "Uncle He, how is it." ”

He Mingcheng: "Mr. Bao! You are calm, you want me to register a company for you, you have done it for you, I haven't contacted you for the past few days, you are helping you find a factory, and you have found two more suitable ones." It's all in Kowloon, and I made an appointment to go next Monday, that is, at 10 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, and you will go downstairs to my company at 9 o'clock, and I will go together. ”

Bao Zixuan: "Thank you, Mr. He, don't worry, I'll go to you the day after tomorrow." After chatting a few words, he hung up the phone. ”

And at this time, when she heard that her son was still looking for a factory, Li Yulin immediately became calm.

Li Yulin: "Ah Xuan, don't lose a big deal because of a small thing! Business can be done at any time, but your studies are only a few years old!"

Bao Zixuan: "Don't worry! Mommy! This is just a prototype, and the main market is still in the United States." After that, he went back to his room and started working on the second game. Regarding the second game, Bao Zixuan also chose the classic of his previous life - Pac-Man.

Pac-Man's previous life was the first to be launched by RB Nangong Dream Company on the arcade in 1980, and of course such a classic game has to be used, but although Pac-Man is also a small game, it is much more complicated than Xiangjiang Cube, and it is estimated that it will take about 1-2 months to work alone. Now it seems that what I have to do is to write the underlying code and complete the game outline, and finally I can only hire some more game designers to co-develop it.

So Bao Zixuan's work the next day focused on the game outline and the underlying code setting, and the game outline he wrote seemed very detailed in this era. After all, in his previous life, he had managed the research and development of aircraft engines, and the departments involved were much more complicated than a small game.

Bao Zixuan, who had been at home for a few days, was going out again, and during the time he was at home, Li Yulin basically didn't go to the store much, and stayed with his son all the time, which made him feel very guilty for not having time to spend with his mother. When I have time in the future, I must accompany my mother well;
