458. Build a Sky Tree on your hands

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "By the way, I still have to write programs according to the standards that can be implemented by most languages, but I don't know exactly how effective it will be. There's also the opening up of modding, and for the time being, I don't plan to release the source code of the game at the beginning, but if you think it's possible, I don't care."

Jiang Yu read this passage, shook his head with a smile, and secretly said that this guy will not still test me openly and secretly until now, right? We've both made two games together, huh?

Jiang Yu: "I don't know how long it will be before the platform is transplanted, so you don't have to worry. Also, I didn't plan to open source and mod things from the beginning, and it would never be too late to open up the game after it had a certain audience. By the way, did you build anything in this game before? The kind that can be put out of your hand."

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "I was bored and built a Sky Tree before."

Jiang Yu: "...... Okay, let's wait until you put the game up and see how hot it is, and wait for the opportunity to release the renderings of the Sky Tree you built."

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "If you're trying to promote it, my Sky Tree alone isn't enough."

This dignified boy, who resembles a girl, is not an architectural expert, although he is quite conceited in terms of procedures. The work he did casually before looked okay from a distance, but it looked rough up close.

In this regard, Jiang Yu was a little difficult.

Of course, he had played this game called "Minecraft" before, but he was by no means a master of the game. Most of the time, it's just in the adventure mode, digging underground, fighting monsters, and making a living.

And against the creative mode of this game...... It's not that he hasn't challenged it, but he quickly understood his limits - in this life, he can probably only be a low-end player, looking up to the big guy who can build the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Notre Dame Cathedral and even the legendary Hanging Garden.

And just when he was in trouble, his partner sent another message.

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "If you want to make a lot of noise, you need to be able to recreate the real-life landmarks in the game in a more delicate way. From the player's point of view, it will take about half a month to get familiar with it and master it, and finally build it."

Of course, he was referring to players in general. If you're an avid fan with a foundation or a great interest in the game, Ryunosuke Akasaka won't be surprised if a statue of Liberty comes out in a few days.

That's the magic of this game. Those who like it will like it very much, and those who can't stand the pixel art style and gameplay will be dissuaded from the beginning, which can be said to be a good example of screening players from the beginning.

However, this also involves the promotion of the game before its release, and this is precisely the common weakness of these two people, and it is completely impossible to make up for it.

Fortunately, now is the era of self-media, and every user on social platforms can be regarded as a media. Weibo that is popular in the Celestial Empire, and Twitter that is popular in the Celestial Empire...... When it comes to the speed of topic dissemination, it surpasses everyone's imagination at the beginning of the Internet era, let alone the era before that, when paper publications were dominant.

In other words, as long as this game can attract the attention of some big guys who really love games, or have knowledge of architecture, and can arouse their interest, it will become popular in an instant.

The key point after that is whether you can turn that short-term popularity into long-term vitality.

And this is also the eternal proposition that the propaganda departments of all game companies rack their brains to think. Although in Jiang Yu's view, this aspect of things should be left to game planning and operation and maintenance.

And in addition to knowing nothing about propaganda, his attitude also profoundly shows the arrogance of an otaku who can only bury his head in writing programs.

A good game can always be popular, it's just a matter of time.

With such a naïve view in his mind, he forgot that if it weren't for the chance, how could he have encountered such small but sophisticated games as "Hollo Knight", "Uale", and "Dead Cells" in his last world?

Now, let's be glad that we are not familiar with this aspect of the matter, and we have left the announcement of the "Gate of Destiny Stone" to Lunya.

So, Jiang Yu, who had that kind of assumption for granted, made a decision.

Jiang Yu: "Anyway, it's a beta version, so there's no need to promote it. Anyway, I don't think there's any point in spending time with a small team like ours to promote it. So, Akasaka, you just upload the game directly to the server, and then just make a banner on the homepage, and then you can pull a discussion on 2ch as appropriate, and use the fame left over from the previous "Witch's House".

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "I see, I'll arrange this."

Jiang Yu: "Hmm...... Yes! By the way, who are the people who are using your forum?"

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "Some of my peers, and ordinary people who broke in by mistake."

Jiang Yu: "Starfish ...... Accidentally Entered"

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "Starfish?"

Jiang Yu: "In Chinese, it is a homophone with "okay."

Ryunosuke Akasaka: "Boring. If it's okay, I'll go down."

Jiang Yu: "Well, I'll contact you if you have something."

"Ryunosuke-sama has logged out!"

After seeing the message prompt sound of the logout, Jiang Yu stretched his waist and also closed the chat room that came with the Meiji-chan program, and confirmed that this artificial intelligence was also turned off, before opening the main body of the program of the "Gate of Destiny Stone" and continuing to start the liver progress.

Although it is not something worth hiding, every move on the computer is quietly recorded in the background files by others, which is not very comfortable after all.

The next few days passed without any waves. The clubs in the school are still the same, and Megumi Kato's sense of existence still comes and goes, but Jiang Yu can be regarded as having a certain immunity to the girl's elusiveness or sudden voice, so that he will not have a frightened expression every time.

However, Kasumigaoka Shiyu and Ying Lili are both sleep-deprived, the former sleeps in the classroom all day, and the latter has to hold on in the classroom, and goes to his own exclusive small studio to rest whenever he has time.

In this regard, Jiang Yu knew in his heart - Senior Sister Kasumigaoka was probably thinking about the new work, and Ying Lili was definitely crazy to catch up with the progress of the original painting.

This could not be clearer to him, a programmer who receives new original drawings almost every night. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
