Chapter 192: Shocked Cheng Yao
Although Nanako's language skills may not be very good, her hand-drawn game introduction diagram is quite clear at a glance, combined with Nanako's explanation, Cheng Yao immediately understood the idea and setting of this game. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Cheng Yao exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is really an amazing idea!"
"Heh..."Nanako chuckled reservedly and continued, "It's not just that, in order to support the expected game section, I have also designed and conceived several new games."
Inspired by Plants vs. Zombies, I've spawned several similar 'tower defense games'.
After all, the game companies on the market now are more undisciplined than the other, and in order to prevent them from borrowing the gameplay I designed from copycats, I deliberately conceived several similar games.
I've got the title of this series in mind, and it's called 'Tower Defense Games'.
And the setting gameplay of tower defense games,I've also applied for a patent.,Any game that uses various buildings or functions on the map to block the progress of monsters,It should be classified in the category of tower defense games.。 ”
Cheng Yao nodded matter-of-fact and said: "Indeed, the online entertainment games of the Dragon Kingdom have just begun to sprout, and the laws in this area are not yet complete, and it is easy to be exploited, so it is necessary to apply for a patent in advance." ”
It's like the two most popular web games on the market, and the gameplay is almost identical, both of which are web games that fight monsters and upgrade all kinds of crazy and cool moves that explode all over the screen.
The companies that made these two games were WY and LL, the former had just been developed and listed, and the LL company behind it immediately followed suit and imitated a similar game.
Because it's an online game, it can't be patented at all, after all, aren't all online games on the market like this?
Although there are differences in small details, the main gameplay is all the same RPG monster fighting and upgrading flow games, and there are no unique features at all.
Such a game, even if it is open to the regulations that online games can be patented, it will not be able to apply for a patent at all, after all, there are no characteristics, and if there are dozens of the same game at that time, how can the people in the patent office judge whether it is plagiarism? Who has plagiarized?
It's different on Nanako's side.,First of all,This is a stand-alone game of hers.,It's not set to profit with pit money such as game stores.,Just buy it.,Download the resource pack and install it to play.。
Buy once, play for life, and make money only once, for such a game, it is in line with the criteria for applying for a patent.
As long as your gameplay is completely new, different from previous games, and there are no games on the market with the same gameplay, the patent can be filed.
But even so, some people can still find loopholes and borrow from your creativity.
For example, the two games of Plants vs. Zombies and Defend the Carrot seem a bit far-fetched to say that these two games are the same type of game.
But if you're serious, aren't these two games based on building forts and blocking monsters?
So in order not to have anything to do with others in the future, Nanako simply conceived several such game scripts directly, and then classified them all into the category of tower defense games, and applied for a patent.
If you go on your own road, you will block the road! In the future, someone will follow your road and step out of a fork in the road.
"What about the other games? Tell me about it, I'm getting more and more curious now, what kind of good games will you come up with, Nanako. Cheng Yao said with a smile.
Nanako raised her head proudly and snorted twice, "Hehe, you just wait and see." ”
"You see, this game, called Defend the Carrot, is also one of the tower defense games I've mentioned. Nanako changed a set of slideshow pictures again.
In the picture, a big radish is in the center, and a square lane channel extends from a silver-white vortex, and the channel is like a square, and the end of the channel is this big radish.
Nanako continued to turn the page, and in the next picture, one by one the Q version of the monster came out of the whirlpool and walked forward along the passage.
In the next one, several bottles that spew thunder and fire were placed on both sides of the passage, constantly attacking the monsters in the passage beside them.
Nanako explained while showing Cheng Yao an example picture: "The gameplay of this defense radish is roughly the same as that of Plants vs. Zombies, which is a tower defense game based on building various weapons and defense towers to block the progress of monsters and eliminate them.
The difference is that the style of painting between the two, the map... It's all different, the only thing that's the same, that's the setting of building to block monsters.
I don't know if the people at the patent office, if they see these two games again, they will characterize them as the same kind of games, after all, in the eyes of many people, the two games are fundamentally different.
So I just designed a few more games like this, and then registered them all in the patent for tower defense games.
If that's the case, and someone can copy and borrow a few of these games without being sanctioned by the patent, then I'll really have to bow down. ”
Cheng Yao looked at Nanako, and the stains in her mouth couldn't stop being surprised, "I think it, Nanako, you have designed several games with the same setting in a row, but they are not the same, how can others still have the ability to innovate."
So, Nanako, the tower defense game you designed and conceived is estimated to have been monopolized by yourself, even if others are greedy, there is no way to borrow your creativity. ”
Nanako pursed her lips, "Maybe, but as long as I take out the templates of these games in advance, then even if someone wants to design a tower defense game in the future, they will have to come to me for authorization, and there is no chance to take advantage of the loopholes." ”
Tower defense series of games,After introducing these two,Nanako doesn't need to introduce it to Cheng Yao.,Anyway, everything is the same.,It's all revolving around the basic rules of tower and defense.,At best, it's just a change to the map.,Add some new gadgets.。
"The introduction of tower defense games, that's it. Nanako smiled and continued, "Next, I'll give you two final ideas and ideas for the new game.
These games all need to be completed with the help of Sister Cheng Yao, and I am usually very busy, Sister Cheng Yao, after you come to work in our cat club, I don't think I will have much time to find you, so I just hold on to the present and explain it to you here. ”
"This game, called Big Fish Eat Small Fish, as the name suggests, is a game where big fish eat small fish. In the picture, it is a group of cartoon fish, Nanako pointed to one of the small fish that is obviously different from the surrounding fish and said,
"We, the players, are controlling such a small fish, according to the rules of nature, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp.
This is the premise of this game, and we players can use mouse movements to control this 'protagonist fish' to play the game.
The protagonist fish appears at the beginning, it is one of the smallest fish in the ocean, it can accumulate energy by eating fish smaller than itself, and when the energy reaches a certain level, it can become a class larger, and finally pass the level, and can even become a deep-sea monster bigger than the blue whale.
Every time the protagonist fish appears in the game level, it is set by default to be one size larger than the smallest fish in the current scene, and one size smaller than the second-to-last fish in the scene.
The player moves the mouse to control the main character's fish to move, and when it encounters a fish smaller than itself, it will eat the fish in one bite, and vice versa, if it hits a big fish, it will be swallowed by a fish larger than its own size, and the game is over. ”
Cheng Yao can't think of any words to describe the shock in her heart, as well as Nanako's genius, the three games Nanako introduced to her are all good games with interesting themes and novel settings.
She is sure that these three games, no matter which one they are, can set off a wave of carnival of their own in the game industry, don't doubt that these games, even in the world of Nanako's previous life, can be regarded as very interesting and fun games, not to mention in this dragon country where the entertainment industry is lacking and the development is slow.
"So, what about another game?" Cheng Yao asked with some anticipation, the game that can be introduced at the end must be a work that Nanako is very optimistic about, otherwise Nanako would not have used it for the finale.
Nanako smiled and raised her hand to signal Cheng Yao to be calm, "The last game is not a game on the PC side, nor is it a game on the console, but a mobile game!"
"Mobile games?" Even Nanako's previous life, mobile games only officially emerged around 2017, and Dragon Kingdom has always lagged behind in this regard, and even now there is no company dedicated to this aspect at all.
But Nanako is different, she has experienced the entertainment era in her previous life, how can she not understand the huge market and popularity of mobile games in the future.
People in this world have not yet thought about this, and they have clearly entered the era of smart phones, but the games in the mobile phone are still only a five-in-a-row chess that comes with the factory.
What is this called, Nanako thinks that it is necessary to let the people of the Dragon Kingdom see the power of mobile games.
Dear, do you want to take pesticides today? Ahh
"The last game is a mobile game, and it's called Fruit Ninja ........"
