"Mr. Wei, this is our next overseas market strategy, I plan to launch the pyramid version of "Temple Run" and re-launch it on the Google Play Store......"

When he said this, Wu Tong couldn't help but regret it in his heart.

It stands to reason that Wei Kun is the creator of this idea, but at that time, Wu Tong was also hosting the development of Android games for the first time, coupled with the run-in between the teams, "Temple Run" took a lot of detours in development, which led to falling behind "Temple Run" when it was launched overseas and losing the opportunity.

The only thing to be thankful for is probably that "Temple Run" has taken the lead in seizing the domestic market!

After the launch of "Temple Run", because of the popularity of gameplay and content, it has long occupied one of the free game rankings, and was naturally taken by the domestic game agent Letu Games and bought the domestic agency of "Temple Run".

It's just that without waiting for them to approve the version number, 69 Games launched "Temple Run" first, and easily captured the domestic market.

It's also a comeback.

Lefu Games was dumbfounded, and spent a lot of money to buy the domestic agency of "Temple Run", how long has it been since the domestic copycat version was released?

It was also to buy a water army, send advertisements, post articles denouncing copycat behavior, and even sent a lawyer's letter to the company.

It's a pity that in terms of chronological order, the development time of "Temple Run" and "Temple Run" is almost the same, which means that the two sides collided with ideas, and the funny game can only suffer a dumb loss.

"Temple Run" had to be renamed "Escape from the Ancient Temple" in China, and naturally it cannot be compared with "Temple Run" in terms of popularity and revenue.

Players don't care about the twists and turns behind this, and users who are used to Temple Run will most likely not download a game with the same gameplay, not to mention that too many users have invested too much time and money in Temple Run.

"Escape from the Ancient Temple" they will only stop at a shallow taste, but "Escape from the Temple" will not retreat.

Hearing Wu Tong's words, Wei Kun roughly understood what he wanted to do next, and only after listening to his thoughts did not express his position for the time being, Wei Kun spoke.

"I couldn't agree with you on the need to launch an overseas version. ”

After Wei Kun finished speaking, the corners of Wu Tong's mouth showed a trace of curvature, and it was definitely a very happy thing to be able to be recognized by the boss.

"But ......"

The corners of his mouth had just risen, and the turn Wu Tong heard next made him go into cardiac arrest.

"Mr. Wei, is there a problem?" Wu Tong asked cautiously.

He is not the creator of the idea of "Temple Run", but the main planner of the game that turns the idea into reality, so Wu Tong has always put himself in the right position.

Being able to have such useful ideas in the game industry at a young age, Wu Tong has always maintained a respectful attitude towards Wei Kun.

No one dares to guarantee where the next wave of wind in the game market will blow, and the two games that Wei Kun currently provides the main ideas have achieved great success, because for this reason, Wu Tong naturally does not dare to ignore the boss's ideas.

"From the temple to the pyramid, it's just a change of scene, and since it's going to be a change of skin, it's a bit simpler. ”

When he said this, the game that came to Wei Kun's mind was naturally "Subway Surfers".

After the popularity of "Temple Run" became popular around the world, more and more game manufacturers have set their sights on parkour games, the lowest level is naturally copycat plagiarism, and the more advanced is the development of new games with the same gameplay but new background content.

For example, Disney's "Temple Run: The Wizard of Wonderland", "Agent Parkour" and so on.

The more long-term company stands on the shoulders of giants and further innovates the gameplay of parkour, and "Subway Surfers" was born in this context.

Compared with the real painting style of "Temple Run", some scenes are dark parkour games, "Subway Surfers" is more inclined to cartoon in the painting style, the scene color is also extremely rich, the game is colorful, the UI is simple, and the operation is simple, which is a good choice for players to pass the fragmented time.

Wei Kun pulled a piece of paper from his hand, picked up a pen and wrote and drew on it.

Wu Tong stood aside and stared at the white paper with his head peeled off, and after a while, a little boy in a sweatshirt and a hip-hop hat jumped on the paper.

Painting is not Wei Kun's specialty, compared to the image of the parkour boy in his memory, Wei Kun's painting can only be said to be godlike, but it is enough to see.

"The name is "Subway Surfers", so the scene will naturally be set to the subway, and the chasing monster will be replaced by the police......"

Wei Kun said, Wu Tong on the side nodded in agreement from time to time, and admired Wei Kun more and more in his heart.

When I was still thinking about simply replacing the background with a pyramid, the boss had already worked the differentiation of the game.

It's not that he's a sycophant, it's that creativity is sometimes more important than anything else.

"Since it is global-oriented and positioned as a parkour trip around the world, it is necessary to update different city themes every once in a while, and each city theme must have corresponding content, for example, the city theme is Beijing, and the special character is unlocked as the Monkey King ......"

"When you get to New York, the chasing cop turns into Batman, and that's all you need. ”

The more Wu Tong on the side listened, the more he felt that it made sense, many times people would be trapped in a fixed mind, and they needed someone to wake him up.

Just like Wu Tong had been thinking about doing a simple skin change on the game materials before, after Wei Kun said this, he realized that the original game innovation can still be played like this.

"Of course, I'm just talking, the copyright of Batman is too expensive, we can't afford it!" Wei Kun suddenly explained with a smile.

"Mr. Wei, I understand. ”

Seeing Wu Tong's enlightened expression, Wei Kun felt very relieved.

The development and creation of games can never be done by one person, and as a reborn, Wei Kun cannot complete the various positions himself, which requires a group of such talents to help him achieve this goal.

Wu Tong and Chen Hai are such talents.

"In addition, I will give you another task, start to ask the art team to prepare some cartoon character materials, and ask for a two-headed body, which will serve the next new mobile game project, and it is also the company's next focus!"

Barycenter?

When he heard this, Wu Tong was obviously stunned, didn't the company's focus in the past always be on web games?

"Mr. Wei, can I ask what type of game it is?"

Hearing his question, Wei Kun didn't sell it, "Genre casual cool running, this will be the company's first mobile online game!"
