Chapter 11: Open Play

Du Sitong was suddenly at a loss: "Huh? ”

Lin Shu didn't care about her slow reaction - he was used to it anyway. He said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I've been learning programming and designing games independently recently, and it's just an exercise." Isn't the teacher good at drawing? Let's work together. When the time comes, it will be considered our joint work. ”

――Help, my student said he was going to introduce me to a part-time job as a game artist!

――Is the landlord a college counselor?

- No, it is a trainee teacher in an elementary school and a temporary acting class teacher.

Du Sitong completed a forum tree hole Q&A and self-complaining with rich psychological activities, and then hesitated whether to hit Lin Shu honestly.

[Is it so easy to make a game!?] Kids, I know your computer skills are good, but isn't it too exaggerated to make your own games!? Mitnik, a genius hacker, only invaded the U.S. Air Defense when he was fifteen years old, so it's about the same as a perfect score in math class at your age, right? People can't be too ambitious. 】

But Du Sitong couldn't say it - when she talked to Lin Shu about her animation dream before, Lin Shu gave her all aspects of advice very seriously. reciprocated, even if the other party was a child, Du Sitong felt that he had to do it.

The result of being too thin-skinned is that it is inevitable to be led away by others, so in the end, Du Sitong himself didn't know how, so he became Lin Shu's full-time artist.

Although at this time, she positioned herself as a full-time nanny who played with children.

"So, what kind of game do you want to make?" Du Sitong opened his mouth and asked Lin Shu.

Lin Shu said with a smile: "In fact, the approximate engine production has been in progress, but there is no specific plot direction and character scene yet...... If you want to see it, I can make a temporary paragraph and show it to you. ”

Du Sitong heard him say so much, but he really showed a little curiosity and said, "Really? Also the engine? It seems to be quite professional. ”

Lin Shu replied, "That's right." Teacher, you'll know later, join the system of this game...... You won't regret it. ”

The half-grown child showed the attitude of an adult, swearing that he was confident to the point of arrogance...... Actually, it looks pretty cute. So Du Sitong couldn't help but reach out and rub his head: "Then I'll wait." ”

Lin Shu was rubbed his hair, and suddenly showed a little dissatisfaction, avoiding Du Sitong's harassment.

Really, completely treated like a child.

Then he said to Du Sitong: "But if you can, the teacher had better help me draw a few characters and background pictures first...... By the way, there are icons, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't have them. I don't know how to draw myself, and if I use ready-made pictures directly, there will be a suspicion of infringement - the icon is fine, but I can't just go to the Internet to find a commercial one. ”

Du Sitong smiled: "You kid...... I'm quite legally conscious. ”

Lin Shu said: "It's not all because of this. ”

How to say it, Du Sitong may not understand, because Lin Shu still has a vague impression of the situation when he was a child, and remembers that at this time, the copyright issues on the entire network and the market are very chaotic, and piracy is rampant. Years later, university textbooks referred to the 45-year period of exhaustion of copyright in China.

These forty-five years have promoted the rise of the economy, but also led to the death of original consciousness. Although the country has never lacked innovators in terms of population, most of them have been drowned in the tide of speculation and have never been duly rewarded.

This is the sadness of the times.

Although Lin Shu was born at the end of this wave, he actually did not feel the difficulties. When he was in elementary school, the state was already grasping copyright issues; By the time I was in middle school, piracy had already begun to disappear. By the time he started his own business, genuine had completely become the mainstream of society, and the relevant laws had been basically perfected.

It's just that he has heard more than once about some tragedies caused by the lack of copyright at this time, so he is deeply impressed and quite scrupled.

Moreover, he has long been accustomed to respecting the creative work of others, which can only be regarded as an instinctive reaction, but has nothing to do with subjective consciousness.

Generally speaking, some things are a moral choice in a period of confusion, and if you have received the right education from an early age, choosing the right thing to do is an instinct and a logical cognition.

In this understanding, what is right is advantageous, and what is advantageous must be correct. Lin Shu naturally felt that the infringement was detrimental to him, so he would avoid such an approach - which had nothing to do with morality.

However, Du Sitong didn't know, so he only felt that although the child was young, he was very principled and disciplined, so he looked up to him a little more.

However, this point is high, compared to the ability that Lin Shu showed in front of Du Sitong later, it is quite not worth mentioning.

Du Sitong spent a weekend picking up two backgrounds and four or five character designs. Because Lin Shu's requirements are not harsh, the background and character design are relatively simple, and they are not very complex and exquisite.

She positioned herself as a nanny for coaxing children, even if her attitude towards Lin Shu was somewhat serious because she liked this student, she was also coaxing with a serious attitude, and she didn't really regard Lin Shu's mention as a job.

Lin Shu could naturally see this.

However, Du Sitong is a good painter, and it can be seen that he has worked hard for many years, and he has done business drawings, even if he is perfunctory, the result is only simple, not crude.

Of course, if such an art manuscript is shown to Lin Shu twenty years later, or even ten years later, Lin Shu will definitely send her back to redo it. But now it is different from the past, firstly, Du Sitong is doing credit and emotional investment, even if the painting is average, she is willing to believe that Lin Shu made this investment and took this risk, which is enough to double the value of her own investment, and due to Lin Shu's own age, it is not too much to double the value of two or three times.

Second, due to time and resource constraints, Lin Shu himself did not do a fine job in the whole game, just to be able to make people shine at this time, and he couldn't talk about doing his best to keep improving, so there was no way to be strict with Du Sitong.

Or first Du Sitong himself must recognize the value of the game.

Because of this idea, Lin Shu did a very hard job in the plot next. He does not seek to be true and emotional in the plot, but only to be able to reflect the superiority and touching aspects of the current system to the greatest extent.

Finally, in the second week, he made a game for Du Sitong, which really impressed the other party, which made Du Sitong stunned.

This game is very simple and lazy in Lin Shu's eyes, and that is because he is judging its value from the perspective of twenty years later. Twenty years later, the level is naturally not the same as today, and just by looking at the hardware configuration, you can see that today's games simply can't withstand such a detailed system and graphics.

And if this system is evaluated purely by the current level, Du Sitong can only say - amazing.

Because of time and manpower constraints, Lin Shu simply made a game program. This game is very simple, probably just the interactive flow of several characters.

Du Sitong simply didn't know how Lin Shu did it - aside from the many settings that had not yet been completed in the entire system, Lin Shutong guò mood tree system was like designing the characters to come alive.

Or rather, like coming to life.

Lin Shu is doing a simulated cultivation system, and the mood tree part is used for virtual socialization with NPCs, so what he showed Du Sitong this time is mainly in this regard. The mood tree system has a very complex calculation pattern, which can not only give a friendship bonus, but also give a friendship reduction, and even encourage NPCs to perform autonomous activities - for example, on the second day of the relationship, the strategy object with cooking skills has a high chance of sending a bento to the player; And if two characters have a fight over something, the period after that is also a very complicated time, and there will be opportunities to deepen the relationship and increase the heartbreak at the same time.

The former can trigger special plots, such as sacrificing one's life to save oneself when encountering danger; And if the latter's heartbreak is too high, it will lead to blackening, sickness, love and killing, etc. - it depends on the basic character setting of the character.

Du Sitong didn't know how this system and related numbers were designed, but he was very impressed by the cohesion. She herself occasionally plays games, so she knows what the current level of similar games is, and therefore she can understand the surprises of the Zào system created by Lin Shu.

At first, she thought that these plots were all set up, but when Lin Shu restarted the system to show her, she found that such plots were actually random and naturally connected - that is, under certain conditions, this system can connect different character reactions with continuous plots.

And these, Lin Shu can easily create a zào as long as he uses a fool-like system that even Du Sitong himself can use.

The whole system is not very difficult to program, and the ideas are not necessarily ingenious and difficult to think of. But to translate the idea into a real game system, in which the system is built, the number of jù design, and the bug troubleshooting...... It's the most troublesome.

Fortunately, Lin Shu is a journeyman, and as a CEO of a related industry, he may not be able to memorize the code of each module, but he still remembers the overall construction plan, the main reasons for the failure of similar game operations, and some key problems in the design.

In this case, Lin Shu avoided a lot of detours and saved a lot of time.
