"In addition to Quake, you've been working on another game during this time? Can you reveal a little bit about that? ”

This is not known which game publication reporter asked, Jester glanced at the questioner, is a middle-aged man in his early thirties, wearing a pair of glasses, rumors about Jester serving as the chief producer of two games at the same time have been widely circulated in the industry in the past few months, in fact, when Mars Entertainment was just established and Dreambox was just beginning to conquer the city, Jester was known for being prolific, and Jester at that time was not just the developer of two games, He is also the producer of almost all the games produced by Mars Entertainment at the same time, and he will definitely be one of the main planners if not the main producer.

It can be said that the entire cornerstone of Mars Entertainment was laid by Jester alone.

But since Dreambox gained a foothold in the market, it is basically rare to see Jester himself acting as the producer of two games developed at the same time, and it can also be seen from this aspect that these two games are extremely important in Jester's eyes, at least in his eyes, except for him, he is not worried that others can complete the idea of these two games.

Crucially, this is Jester's independent game idea.

And people in the game industry are also well known for Jester's game development style, Jester will never make a sequel, that is, these are two brand new games, one of which is "Thor's Hammer", which has given everyone endless shock, and the other one?

"Another game?"

Jester smiled, as if thinking about something, and it took a dozen seconds for his brow to stretch again. As if thinking about it, he said, "I'm really working on two games at the same time, and both games were kept secret until then. And we did a good job of keeping it secret, at least until we developed external testing. The outside world is still speculating about what kind of game our "Quake" is, but what is another game, I can say a lot, but not here, this is the launch of "Quake", I will not and should not say too much about "Quake", otherwise, this is the game "Quake". It's also a disrespect to the Quake development team. ”

After a slight pause, Jester glanced at the audience, obviously, the people present were very dissatisfied with Jester's answer, so Jester thought about it a little, or added, he said: "That's it, I had a plan before, that is, at the end of this month or the beginning of next month, I will do a press conference about this game to introduce this game in detail, and there is only one reason why it is not scheduled for this carnival." That is, the game is still in the final preparations, and there is still about a month before the final production is completed, so I think that time is the most appropriate. ”

Of course. The people present obviously didn't want to let Jester go so simply on this issue, and after the mystery of "Quake" was completely revealed, their interest in another game that was still hidden by Jester naturally increased.

And according to Jester's habit of rarely accepting interviews with the outside world, "Thor's Hammer" has now been released, whether it is for promotion or sales, Mars Entertainment will definitely vigorously promote "Thor's Hammer" in the future, and there will inevitably be a lot of news that will be exposed. So, for the question of Quake. It's not that they don't want to know, but they don't rush to know. Because they all understand that even if you don't say it now, in a few days, you won't need to ask, you will say it yourself.

But this game, which they don't even know the name, and furthermore, the game that they don't even know on what platform the game is, it's impossible for a lot of news to be broken in a short period of time, just like Jester himself said, he plans to hold a press conference in a month to announce the game.

It will be a month at the earliest.

Therefore, the next person who was called on asked the question of this new game that Jester didn't want to say in too much detail: "Mr. Li, is it okay to reveal a little bit of information?" It's all basic, like what type of game is this, what platform will the game be published on, and so on? ”

Jester knew that if he continued to avoid answering, then the next reporters who were called on would definitely be around this question, and those players were obviously more interested in an unannounced game than an unannounced game.

After all, curiosity is a quality that everyone has.

After thinking for a moment, Jester still felt that a little bit of information had been revealed, of course, this news must not be easy to say, he had to make these questioners make some compromises, otherwise, why should he compromise.

Besides, maintaining a sense of mystery is the best marketing tool.

"I can say a little bit about the game that you're all interested in, but only if I want you to stop asking about the game for the rest of the day, because it's a Q&A with Quake, not any other game, what do you think?"

What awaited Jester's answer to this question was the chorus cheers of the audience.

Obviously, the current audience agrees with Jester's mention.

After getting the consent of the audience, Jester coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then began to say: "First of all, I can say that this game has a lot to do with our Mars Entertainment, a product launched a few years ago, and many people may already know what I'm talking about when they hear me say this, that's right, it's an electronic pet machine." ”

Speaking of which, the faces of the audience at the scene showed something strange, why did the new game have been transferred to the electronic pet machine, is it to launch a new version of the electronic pet machine? But hasn't Mars Entertainment been launching new versions of electronic pet machines in recent years? I've never seen Jester so solemn before.

However, some knowledgeable people suddenly showed a thoughtful expression on their faces when Jester talked about the electronic pet machine, and they obviously knew a lot about the electronic pet machine that Jester suddenly talked about, and the full name of the electronic pet machine advertised by Mars Entertainment at that time was, Pokemon version of the electronic pet machine.

"The name of this game is Pokemon, and the origin of the name is the full name of this electronic pet machine product, in fact, this is also a game that I have been thinking about for many years, and now, this game also has a real achievable premise."

In the face of everyone's incomprehension of his words, Jester did not hesitate to say words and explained in detail.

"My meaning is very simple, that is, this game, I was positioned at the beginning to be a game that can be played anytime, anywhere, without the limitation of time and space, but under the circumstances, whether it is still very immature, not even a separate sound chip on the PC, or just beginning to mature on the home game console, it is not enough to complete my idea of this kind of game, when I was thinking about this game, the first thing I thought of, his best carrier, is Mr. Yokoi JunheiAround the 80s, with incredible innovation, Zuò produced the GW handheld game console. ”

"This game console gave me a lot of inspiration, and at that time I was thinking, if I can also make a game console that can be held in my hand anytime and anywhere, and can make use of all the fragmented time, I can play if I want, and don't play if I don't want to play, then the game I envisioned can not be made zuò?"

"However, I soon found out the problem, that is, the game I asked for was not fully simulated by GW's functions, so I suppressed this idea for the time being, and extracted some content and systems that could be completed at that time from this idea, and made an electronic pet game console, fortunately, this product was extremely popular, and it also allowed me to have more information about this game that I can still only keep in my mind."

"And the development idea of the gameboy,That's what I had at that time,To put it bluntly,At the beginning,I went to make zuògameboy,First of all, because of the success of the electronic pet machine,It gave me greater confidence,I think maybe the handheld game console with better performance,The game machine that can be played anytime and anywhere in your hand,There will also be a large market."

"So, when Gameboy was released and became a big success, the development of this game, which had been in my mind for several years, was officially included in the development agenda, and to be honest, the importance I attached to this game was more important to me than Quake, after all, years of affection."

Jester said so much, but still didn't talk about the crux of the problem, these viewers must be dissatisfied, but Jester is honest, saying that he is answering these questions, he will naturally answer them carefully, unless it is some news that can't be said, otherwise, Jester will not care about him.

"As for the genre of this game, I can't say it for the time being, I can only say that it has similarities with other games you have played now, but the differences are also extremely obvious, as for the platform of the game, I think what I just said has made it very clear, this will be a handheld game."
