Zhong Ming was also speechless, the key was that he really didn't pay attention to this game!

Because this kind of competition is generally not very popular, after all, it is all participated by some independent producers and studios, and it is even divided into student groups and professional groups, the level is not high, and the attention in the industry is okay, but the attention on the Internet is basically not high.

And Zhong Ming has been busy with the game some time ago, and he didn't pay special attention to this information.

In short, the time available to him is very limited......

Moreover, not only did you have to rush out of the design concept draft, but you also had to go to the site.

It stands to reason that this kind of audition in the first stage requires the submission of a demo, that is, a sample of the game.

The game may not be fully made, but at least a simple demo can be submitted so that the judges can see the basic gameplay, fun, art style, etc., so that they can roughly determine whether the finished game can be trusted.

Otherwise, there is no demo, only a design concept draft, and how can the judges be sure that you will be able to make the game smoothly?

Design concept drafts are easy to write, but they are difficult to do.

In the audition stage, participants who only submitted a design concept draft need to go to the site to be questioned by the judges, and only pass the questions to enter the next stage.

Zhong Ming immediately began to write the design concept draft, and then said to Jiang Wanna: "That, book two air tickets, Zhou Sen and I are going to Guanghua City." ”

The competition was held in Guanghua City, and the famous Guanghua Art Institute was also partnered.

Jiang Wanna was a little surprised: "You really want to go, don't talk about the demo, is the design draft in time?" ”

Zhong Ming said: "It's okay, I'm writing now, it should be in time." ”

Zhou Sen also heard the conversation between the two people: "Huh? Why is there still my business here? What are you doing in Guanghua City? ”

Zhong Ming explained: "There is a game design competition, you have to go with me to the judges, and I am afraid that the judges will ask some technical questions and I will not be able to answer them. ”

Zhou Sen scratched his head: "Game design competition? What's the point of participating in this, let's continue to make games to make money......"

Zhong Ming: "The first prize has a prize of 1.8 million. ”

Zhou Sen: "I'll pack my luggage when I get home from work!" ”

"The tickets are booked." Jiang Wanna looked at Zhong Ming, who was frantically tapping on the keyboard, "Are you sure you can catch up...... Forget it, don't bother you, you write quickly. ”

Zhong Ming instantly entered the state of a tentacle monster, and the keyboard was crackled.

This competition is a game art concept competition.

Just look at the name and know that it is not easy to win awards for general commercial games.

Games must have a strong artistic quality, and games that can reflect the combination of art and games, and reflect the future development direction of the game, are more likely to win awards.

In other words, whether or not a business is successful may only be ranked third or even lower in importance, and the key is artistic success.

Zhong Ming doesn't have a particularly suitable game at hand, but he can still be original.

……

In the evening, Zhong Ming took out all the calligraphy fruits in the bracelet and ate them all.

After eating, Zhong Ming's first feeling was...... It's a bit of a stretch.

As for the 11 fruits, eat them as fruits, which are quite stomach-bound. When he first drew it, Zhong Ming ate a lot of music fruits and literary fruits, and he really didn't have a stomach.

After eating, Zhong Ming felt that all kinds of calligraphy information flowed into his brain, not only all kinds of calligraphy knowledge, but also many calligraphy techniques and techniques.

"That's pretty much it, but I don't think tomorrow's judges will ask too deep questions."

……

After working hard for a long time, I finally sent the design concept draft of the game before the deadline, and then passed it smoothly.

However, whether it can pass the preliminary review depends on the judges' opinion of the game after the on-site questioning.

Zhong Ming and Zhou Sen flew directly from Ming'an City to Guanghua City by plane.

Both of these cities are large first-tier cities, and Guanghua may be slightly larger than Ming'an. Xinghua Mutual Entertainment, which held the virtual idol contest before, was in Guanghua City.

Moreover, Guanghua City also has the famous Guanghua Art College, which is a first-class art university in the Chinese cultural circle and even in the world, and is very famous for its art majors, calligraphy majors and game design majors.

After getting off the plane, Zhong Ming and Zhou Sen took a taxi in the air and rushed directly to the booked hotel.

When they arrived at the standard room of the hotel, they put down their luggage, and Zhou Sen began to read the design concept draft sent by Zhong Ming to him on the bracelet.

Tomorrow's keynote speaker will definitely be Zhong Ming, but after all, design is one thing, and whether it can be made is another matter.

There are some professional procedures in the review, and there may be questions about the feasibility of some designs, so Zhong Ming still has to bring Zhou Sen with him to be a little safer.

Zhou Sen read the design concept draft: "There should be no big problem, the content of the game itself is not complicated." But there's a little bit of a bad thing.,This game,You have to connect to a special device to play.,Isn't it a bit ...... Too harsh? ”

Zhong Ming explained: "Actually, it is okay not to connect external equipment. If you are an ordinary player and just want to watch a bonus, you can play with a keyboard and mouse or a bracelet. The so-called external pressure pen and hand-drawn tablet are specially prepared for those big bulls. ”

Zhou Sen nodded: "Okay, anyway, you can decide the design things, there should be no problem technically, and you can't ask me." ”

The two of them were a little right and felt that there was no big problem.

I'm just waiting for tomorrow's review and questioning session.

……

The next morning.

Zhong Ming and Zhou Sen were dressed like dogs...... Oh no, decent, head to Guanghua Academy of Arts.

This is the question part of the preliminary review of the competition, and it is certainly impossible for all the judges to be present, and there is no need for that, because there are not many contestants who do not submit a demo in the preliminary selection stage and only submit a design concept draft.

There may be two or three hundred entries in the entire preliminary stage of the competition, of which more than half have submitted demos.

Therefore, this questioning was only borrowed from an activity center of Guanghua Art Institute, and there was no audience, only a few judges who happened to be in Guanghua City were present to make a simple inquiry about the entries in the primary selection.

As for what exactly is asked.

First, question some design details that are not clearly written in the design concept draft. After all, what was sent was only a concept draft, not a very detailed design document, and there would be a lot of unclear points, but these details often affect the overall performance of the game, so the judges can ask if they don't understand it well.

Second, ask some technical questions and make sure that the contestants can develop the game smoothly if the design details are okay.

Those contestants who submitted the demo have basically proved that their technical level is not too bad, and the group of people who did not submit the demo only has one design draft, and it is really hard to say whether they can make it.

On top of that, there are a few miscellaneous questions, such as, if this is a game that specializes in art, can you do it at the art level of your project? Is there a concept map? If not, then at least you have to show the qualifications of the main artist of your project, so that the judges can believe that you have the strength to do it.
