Chapter 134: Chief Designer

Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. moved to Pingjiang City on July 13.

Chen Ping came to Pingjiang City on August 12.

In this whole month, Guangyu Technology Company has basically been integrated, and the game development technicians that Xue Mingtao is looking for have been officially integrated into Guangyu Technology Company.

Other departments have also been set up by Xu Weihua, although the current manpower is not too much, but all aspects of the manpower has been improved, all departments have begun to officially operate, the entire Guangyu Technology Company, the system has officially entered the right track.

And now Wang Yang, although he does not have the ability to take charge of the entire company and take charge of himself, he has been learning to deal with the company's affairs with Xu Weihua for some time recently.

According to Xu Weihua, Wang Yang's progress is very obvious, although he does not yet have the ability to take charge alone, but in time, even if the entire Guangyu Technology Company is handed over to Wang Yang, there will not be too many mistakes.

Of course, Wang Yang did not want to directly intervene in the management of the daily affairs of Guangyu Technology Company, and most of his energy was still put on the management of the personnel department and the finance department.

But now, Wang Yang still needs Xu Weihua to help him, otherwise with his own ability, there is no way to handle the affairs of these two departments in an orderly manner.

And after a month of stability, the development process of the game "Running Kart" has officially been put on the agenda.

These days, Xue Mingtao has led the dozens of employees in the game development department to officially produce the development plan for this game.

Now that the game development plan has been completed, the next thing we need is to start the game development in earnest.

The preliminary preparations are basically completed, and the development of this game can officially begin.

After Chen Ping came to Pingjiang City, he participated in the development of the game almost immediately.

On July 12th, Chen Ping learned about the various preparations for the current game development.

And the next day, the first thing Chen Ping did when he came to the company was to officially start the development of the game "Running Kart".

Subsequently, everyone in the company focused most of their attention on the development of the game, especially the members of the game development department, who worked day and night.

When Chen Ping came here yesterday, the promise of a series of bonus systems directly stimulated these employees who had just joined Coslight Technology, and all of them devoted themselves to the process of making this game with 100% enthusiasm.

In the process of game development, many people were surprised to find that they originally thought that Chen Ping was just the boss and would not really participate in the process of game development, but would just play a supervisory role.

But they didn't expect that Chen Ping's role in the development of this game was even more obvious than Xue Mingtao's.

Chen Ping was able to anticipate and even prepare for many precautions in the game development process.

It's as if Chen Ping had played this game before.

For various problems in game design, Chen Ping was able to point out the key points straightforwardly, and some ideas, even Xue Mingtao and the members of the game development department discussed for a long time, but they were not finally decided.

But when he came to Chen Ping, he pointed out the most critical place in just a few words, and gave his final opinion.

According to the solution mentioned by Chen Ping, the design of this game can greatly shorten the time.

In fact, the development of a game is not really spent on game programming too much, in fact, it is only about a month, and more time is spent on early game design, and even later game testing, etc.

After the development and planning of a game is completed, the first thing you need is the overall design of the game, and some small things also need to be reflected in the game design.

The more detailed the game design is, the more time and effort will be saved in the later stages of game development.

Normally, a game starts with a general direction and a rough framework, and the game design stage is to complement this framework and design it into a real game, and all aspects need to be considered.

Then, after the game design is completed, you can officially enter the game development process, and after the development of a template, the game will be tested in many aspects.

On the one hand, it is to test the game for major bugs, and on the other hand, it is also to test the playability of the game.

After all, the ultimate goal of developing a game is to make money!

If a game is not playable, let alone marketable, a game that can't make money won't pass the test at all!

If, after testing, the playability of the game is not high, or the commercial value is too low, the game needs to be significantly changed, or even reinvented.

In the process of development, many games spend a lot of time and manpower and material resources, etc., because they are torn down and rebuilt again and again.

Developing a game that is actually marketable and makes a splash sometimes requires a dozen redoses before it can be done.

But with the addition of Chen Ping, the development of the game "Running Kart" by Guangyu Technology Company has become much simpler.

First of all, in terms of game design, although Chen Ping is not really involved in the production process of game design solutions, he does not have the ability to do so.

But as long as Chen Ping is there, after Chen Ping's narration, the whole game is like appearing directly in front of those game designers, and they only need to design it according to the template of the game that Chen Ping described.

Originally, the game design phase that would take another company a month or two, or even longer, was completely completed in less than a week after Chen Ping's arrival.

Although the game "Kart Run" is not a super large online game, it is a kind of online game after all, and the aspects involved are far more complex than the game "Plants vs. Zombies".

At the beginning, the development time of the game "Plants vs. Zombies" was only half a month, but when developing the game Kart, it took nearly a week just for the game design stage.

However, this has already amazed all the members of the game development department of Coslight Technology.

If it weren't for Chen Ping's help, I'm afraid this time would have expanded several times.

After the game design is completed, the next thing you need to do is to start developing and making the game.

At this stage, Chen Ping can no longer intervene.

Although he was also a programmer in his previous life, he was not engaged in game development, and although Chen Ping could understand the development of games, he did not have the ability to intervene.

So after the game design stage was completed, Chen Ping was also relieved.

In the next period of time, Chen Ping's affairs will be much more leisurely.

Most of the affairs have to be handed over to the technical staff of the game development department, but in the process of game production and development, there are some vague questions about game design, and Chen Ping needs to answer them in person.

To put it simply, Chen Ping has become the de facto chief designer of the game "Running Kart"!

With Chen Ping's help, they don't need to test these problems again and again, let alone modify the programs that have been developed again and again.

Therefore, the process of game development will also speed up a lot, and it is expected that it will only take about half a month to complete it completely.

During this time, Chen Ping only needs to come over for an hour or two every day to deal with the problems that arise in the game development process.

After clearing up, Chen Ping calculated the time, and there were still more than ten days before the start of school.

Jiang University started school on September 1st, but now it is August 20th, and there are still ten days left.

Chen Ping also wanted to use the ten days to do something else.

The house that Chen Ping rented was very close to Jiangda, but although he had rented it for a year, he didn't want to live here forever.

In Chen Ping's previous life, although he experienced the time of college, after graduating from college, Chen Ping often missed the innocent days in college, and often thought that if he had the opportunity, he would still want to return to the ivory tower of the university.

So after the university starts, Chen Ping also plans to live in the dormitory for a while, maybe he can also meet a few real friends.

Chen Ping in his previous life, almost always lived in a busy life in the second half of his life, spending almost all of his time working and paying off debts, and he didn't have time to get along with people at all.

So after graduating from Chen Ping University, he rarely had real contact with people, and in more than ten years, Chen Ping did not have a few more friends.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Ping cares so much about his best brother Wang Yang in high school.

And reborn in a lifetime, Chen Ping doesn't want to live like a lonely person.

Just taking advantage of the opportunity to go to college, he also wants to make a few more friends, so that this life can be regarded as more complete.

However, the university has not yet opened, and the neighborhood is a little deserted.

The university town of Pingjiang has only been established in recent years, on the outskirts of Pingjiang City, which until a few years ago was a deserted area.

It was only after the government approved the plan for the construction of the university town that it was officially developed.

However, there are only a few universities in the university town, and there is only one so-called business district, which is located in the middle of several universities.

However, at present, the area of this commercial area is not large, and there are only a few small businesses in it, most of which are small restaurants, and large merchants do not move in at all.

Chen Ping still remembers that when he first went to college in his previous life, there was almost no shopping in the nearby area, and most of the commercial areas in that area were some restaurants, and there was nothing to visit, and if he wanted to buy some clothes and other things, he even had to go to the city.

You must know that Pingjiang City is a provincial capital city after all, and the area is not small.

From the university town, it takes about an hour to get to the city's business district.

This situation lasted until more than a year later, when a large commercial plaza opened near the university town.

But now, the commercial plaza is still under construction, and it will take more than a month to complete the construction.

After the construction of the commercial plaza was completed, it also took a short time to be able to develop completely, and many merchants settled in one after another, which changed the situation that there was nowhere to go near the university town.

And this is exactly an opportunity that Chen Ping wants to seize.
