Chapter Twenty-Five: There Are So Many Dramas
Are the random elements in Isaac's Binding easy to imitate?
It's easy, it's not such a confidential thing, basically a game producer with a little bit of knowledge, after playing it, you will have a concept in your heart.
But it's not that easy to copy, either you have to copy everything along with the values and designs, or you have to correct and add your own ideas.
To put it simply, it's the same as copying homework in elementary school, when copying other people's homework, if you don't move a single punctuation mark, then you probably have to be caught by the teacher, and then be a typical critic.
But if you copy it, but change some words on the basis of copying, and add some of your own meaning, the teacher will turn a blind eye even if he finds out.
And the game that Wang Yaliang showed Yang Chen is basically the kind of nondescript copying, who wants to copy but is afraid that the teacher will find out and change the answer to a mess.
"This kind of game doesn't care about it, players can spray them to death." Pulling to the rating area below, looking at the 2.5 score that was lower than his original "Monster Dungeon", Yang Chen couldn't help laughing.
As for things that don't threaten to send a lawyer's letter, forget it.
What is the use of sending a lawyer's letter at every turn?
Whether the court has filed a case or not, there must be a real threat, and the court summons is the hard commodity.
"Set up a studio as soon as possible, and I will certify it on the official platform later, so as to facilitate the recruitment of people in the later stage." Yang Chen said to Wang Yaliang.
Yang Chen felt that there was no threat to this ordinary dungeon shooter, but not all game manufacturers were the same as this one.
Now that the protection period of "The Binding of Isaac" has passed, other game manufacturers can make more beautiful games than "The Binding of Isaac" with a little effort and the resources at hand, in this case, the advantage of "The Binding of Isaac" is only fame.
Although it will not end "The Marriage of Isaac", it is not as popular as it is now, this is for sure, and the most critical point is that although the follow-up "The Combination of Isaac" can be sold as DLC, or even value-added services.
But Yang Chen didn't think about it so much, he planned to release all the follow-up content for free, and he still wanted to release these contents in the near future.
For example, to provide players with their own MOD editors, these things Yang Chen plans to announce in the near future.
While there are not too many studios involved in this type of game, new versions and new elements will be released as soon as possible, so that the sales of "Isaac's Bondage" will be even higher.
Then put the main energy into the next game, and develop a popular game like an ordinary game designer, which can even be eaten for a few years, or even a lifetime.
The dream memory in his mind is Yang Chen's self-confidence and hole cards, which are the precious treasures of another world for I don't know how many years.
There are too many games that can be referred to by Yang Chen, and Yang Chen can learn from them.
There's no need to stare at this game after it comes out.
Because, there are so many things that can be taken out!
…………
After deciding on the decision to open a studio, Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang did not hesitate much, and immediately started to act.
During this time, the second batch of shares of "The Marriage of Isaac" has also arrived, more than 4 million after tax, counting the previous 1 million, a total of more than 5 million, and a small studio has no pressure at all.
In recent years, Jiang City has built a new science and technology park, the location conditions are not bad, the bus along the way is convenient, and about 10 minutes away from riding a small bee, there is a new community not long ago, the only defect is that there is no hypermarket or the like around, some remote life may be a little inconvenient.
It took two days to choose a place to go through the procedures, and rented two offices on the ninth floor of the 18-story building in Block A of the Software Park, a total of 110 square meters of decoration and everything has been done, and the water and power grids are all connected, as long as the office equipment is moved in, it can be used immediately.
A sign for a year, the rent is not too expensive, 2.5 yuan a square meter a day, a month of more than 8,000 rent.
As for the facilities for employees to rest and entertain, although Yang Chen also wants to get them, just like the three major ones, there are independent staff game halls, gyms, and even restaurants and cafes.
But it's a pity that the millions on hand are far from these things, and they are simply very different.
"Change the wallpaper in the room, and I'll send the picture when the time comes, and make a few life-size figures, with a 130*97 frame." Yang Chen talked to the decoration leader introduced by the landlord about his requirements.
Although the original office has been renovated, it is just a simple decoration, and neither Yang Chen nor Wang Yaliang are very satisfied with the layout.
After paying some more deposits, and writing the terms of the later check-out and restoration and decoration in the contract, they also began to renovate the office.
And the name of the studio has also been registered with the official department.
'Nebula' is the final name of the studio.
As for the LOGO, it is very simple, two blue stars and a black ball, which is the LOGO of the studio.
"This house is not bad, it is much better than the previous one." Arriving at the new rental house with his luggage, Yang Chen stretched his waist, and then threw himself on the bed.
"It's a lot more expensive, and the rent is a third more expensive than before." Wang Yaliang put down the suitcase, and then stretched his waist and fell next to Yang Chen.
The two of them lay quietly on the bed, and after a minute, Yang Chen's arm was poked several times by someone's little finger.
"What for?"
Yang Chen turned his head, only to see that Wang Yaliang didn't know when he had turned his head sideways and kept staring at him.
"It's been so hot lately!" Wang Yaliang sighed and said.
"Well, it's hot." Pretending not to understand, Yang Chen nodded and agreed.
"Think of a way." Fingers poked at Yang Chen's arm again, and Wang Yaliang turned his head to look at the air conditioner next to him.
"Take a shower, take a shower and cool down." Yang Chen pretended not to see Wang Yaliang's gaze, and pretended to be confused with a smile.
"Help me turn on the air conditioner!" This time he finally couldn't help it, Wang Yaliang used both hands, and the index fingers of both hands poked and played back and forth on Yang Chen's arm.
"Let me turn on the air conditioner, I wouldn't have understood it earlier." Too lazy to find the remote control, Yang Chen smiled and took out the mobile phone in his pocket, pointed the infrared at the air conditioner and turned it on with the remote control APP.
"Hmph, there's a lot of drama." Wang Yaliang pouted.
