Magic City, the scene of the Penguin Carnival, in front of the "League of Legends" activity area.

A group of gamers were excitedly looking forward to the 'game demo' session later, when one of them sounded S1 in his hand.

Click on it to take a look, and see a message recommendation from the Sparrow APP displayed in the status bar: "Five minutes to change its name to 'Spark Game', which will be a large-scale stand-alone game of "Superpower"! 》

"Damn, 'Super Marines' is going to adapt a single-player game? Look ......"

Friend Yue Dong leaned in front of the screen: "It won't be another gossip, right?" Didn't you say it would be adapted into a mobile game before? ”

"What game? Xiao Qi. "Another friend also came from the past.

"Super games." Xiao Qi looked at his phone and said with a smile: "If Super Energy changes to a mobile game, isn't it a drop in grade?" This time it should be true, the news says that it is 'the official announcement of Spark Games'......"

Yue Dong was curious: "Spark game? What company is Spark Games? It doesn't seem to be very famous, does it? ”

Xiao Qi said with a smile: "The Spark game was originally called 'Five Minutes', and "Big White Happy Farm" is the ...... they developed."

As he spoke, the other three buddies began to understand and gathered together to read the news.

……

At the same time, sparrow users across the country have successively received the news of 'five-minute name change' and 'super stand-alone version', which immediately activated the heated discussion and support of the majority of "super energy" fans and domestic stand-alone game players.

Domestic original large-scale games are as rare as excellent anime, and they can basically be counted on five fingers, but they are fun original stand-alone games, more like endangered protected animals.

There may only be "Monopoly", "Sword and Fairy", and "Xuanyuan Sword" produced by those companies on Treasure Island that are worth mentioning.

The root cause. First of all, pirated disc dealers and developers.

Whether it is a commercial house or a game, as long as it is a commercial development, it needs to be rewarded.

If a stand-alone game is not developed, it will face the risk of 'all kinds of cracking and piracy'. Developers can only stop in fear.

Compared with stand-alone games, the risk of online games is a little smaller, so in the past two years, Huaxia's 'big production' of original online games has continued one after another. 2D/3D and other games are in full bloom, but there is no rumor of domestic stand-alone games.

This time, the news of Spark's announcement of 'developing a large-scale stand-alone game ...... "Super Marines" has undoubtedly brought a lot of shock to Chinese players and the game industry.

At the same time, it also caused controversy in the industry - "How can Zhang Fan recover the high production cost of "Super Marines"? ”

Some people speculated: "Zhang Fan is a drunkard, and the goal of making the stand-alone game "Super Energy" is likely to be the foreign animation game market. Domestic players are just following the 'dip light'. ”

Some people also believe: "Xinghuo is using 'games' to stabilize the 'super animation industry chain'." Zhang Fan didn't think about making money with games. The purpose is to enliven the popularity of anime and develop the "Super Theme Park" and related industries. ”

This is very close to Zhang Fan's thinking.

……

It is said that a few days ago, after Zhang Fan and everyone set the plan for adapting the game of "Super Marines", they were also discussing: "The future is to develop the game into an online game." Or develop stand-alone and mobile games. ”

In the end, after many discussions, it was decided to make it a 'multi-version single-player game'. Everyone is aware of the risks of developing a single-player game, so the Battle.net Landing Mode will be adopted in the future.

Future Spark not only develops its own game platform. It will also cooperate with other stand-alone networking platforms for joint sales.

Players can purchase the game at one time through an online account. You can also recharge game point cards like online games, and you can play for free when the point card consumes a certain amount.

Gameplay. "Super" will absorb the characteristics of the existing single-player games, and launch the "Story Mode", "Free Mode" and the most popular "DOTA-type" real-time battle mode respectively.

Players can collect various 'robot parts' in 'Story Mode' and 'Free Mode', which can be freely exchanged in the 'built-in Battle.net platform', and can also be used to design their own 'Super Robot Heroes' and enter the 'Real-time Battle Mode' to 'compete with other players'.

In this way, the theme elements of "Super Marines" are integrated into the game, making the game super replayable.

You can experience the storyline on a single machine. The Internet can compete with players.

When Zhang Fan discussed with his Spark game partners, he also planned to launch a '3D map editor' based on Warcraft. In order to facilitate netizens to develop original maps and enrich the playability of the game.

Even if you clear all the difficulties, you can still play the 'Game Map' and 'Rich Story' developed by other players.

In general, the purpose of Xinghuo is to make "Super Marines" a stand-alone online game that integrates 'competition', 'team', 'hero', 'story', etc.

It can be seen as a combination of Warcraft and DOTA.

However, "Super" has its own set of original plots and ideas, and Zhang Fan and his partners are very optimistic about the future prospects of the game.

After the game is developed, Xinghuo will spend a lot of money to hold a competition to promote the development of "Super Energy" competition and the development of "original map".

Among them, the competitive PK of "Super Marines" is the "foreshadowing" laid by Xinghuo for the future "Offline Robot Competition".

When the technology matures, gamers can use equipment such as '3D printers', 'Spark computing chips', 'hummingbird robot systems', 'holographic glasses' to create their own 'combat robots', form their own "Super Marines", and compete in robot competitions.

……

At 6 o'clock in the evening, as the city ushered in the rush hour, the Internet discussion on the "Spark Game" and "Super Energy" to a stand-alone game" turned into a hot stage, and radio, television and other media also joined the report.

In a business car in Xifeng Villa District, "Pengcheng Traffic Broadcasting".

Hostess: "The above is the latest road situation, look at a piece of online news, the old wave information report: Five Minutes Game Company changed its name to 'Spark Games', and will develop a stand-alone game and an independent game engine for "Super Marines" in the future......"

"Some friends may not know about 'Five Minutes Company', but if I talk about "Big White Happy Farm", do you know? Yes, "Happy Farm" was designed and developed by Five Minutes Games. ”

"According to rumors, the game "Happy Farm" alone has brought more than 100 million yuan in revenue to Xinghuo......"

"For the change of "Super Marines" to the game, there is a lot of support on the Internet...... However, some friends are worried that the Spark game will be terminated in the end, and Zhang Fan, chairman of Spark, responded on his personal sparrow network......"

……

Hearing this, a middle-aged woman in the car looked dissatisfied and said: "Xinghuo will really pick the time, not sooner or later, just when we hold a carnival to announce it......"

Ma Huating lifted his glasses, looked at his wife and said: "This is Xinghuo's usual public opinion sniping technique, and Zhang Fan was suppressed by public opinion last time when Xiaomi opened a research conference." ”

"But the Internet is not a ...... opened by Spark"

As he spoke, the car slowly drove into the villa area.

Through the front windshield, you can see the lights in front of the Hong family's villa, all kinds of luxury cars parked on the side of the road, and men and women in suits and evening clothes are holding hands and talking, or are getting out of the car.

As the car got closer and closer, Zhang Fan's figure appeared in Ma Huating's eyes, and Zhang Fan seemed to notice him......
