The game review of the Indie Game Grand Prix is very fast, and in fact, not many people participate in this competition, although Tencent's publicity is in place, but there are still few people who make indie games in China.

In just one day, Liu Xi's game was hung on the wegaem platform, which means that she passed the first stage of the competition.

Although there are not many games participating, there are more than 30 scattered games, but due to the vigorous development of independent games in recent years, there are also many players and netizens who pay attention to independent games.

"That mafia game is good, it kind of plays like an alloy slug."

"Isn't Kong Lan also good? Small fresh painting style, I like it a lot. ”

"Stardew Valley is unparalleled in the world! The swing is great for generations! ”

"Upstairs, aren't you stupid, Stardew Valley is a copy of Ranch Story, right? It's just one more vertical painting, and the level of painting is not very good. ”

"You can do it, why don't you see you making games and participating in competitions?"

"Lao Tzu commented that the air conditioner will be able to refrigerate?"

"Swing cross-border game, no matter what, it's worth giving a thumbs up, okay? But can the swing have more chapters? Recently, one chapter a day is not enough to read. ”

In the comment area of the competition page, Liu Xi found that there were a large number of fans of his novels in the comment area, and these fans were not brainless, and some people pointed out the shortcomings of Stardew Valley, but the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and there are always a few fans who are brainless to tout Liu Xi's game, and they almost regard Stardew Valley as a 3A masterpiece.

The devil knows what they think.

Take another look at the likes that are almost equivalent to voting, because Liu Xi promoted the game in the novel, Stardew Valley has reached thousands of downloads and likes, but there are hundreds of people who "dislike" it.

I always feel that there is an illusion that a storm is coming.

Due to the irritable fans in the comment area who were angry at those who had bad reviews, Liu Xi frowned and looked at the second place, which imitated the metal slug, the famous "Mafia" side-scrolling shooter, although this game also received rave reviews, but the number of likes was only hundreds because of the different exposures.

So soon, just the day after the official start of the game, the author of Mafia stated it in the changelog.

"Due to the short development time, please forgive me for too many bugs.

This update eliminates three malicious bugs.

Other than that:

As a game producer and a participant in the competition, I found that the results of a game at the top of the list were a bit unusual, and when the number of downloads of the game in the second place was only hundreds, the number of downloads in the first place was already thousands. With the biggest malicious speculation, I think the number one game is probably due to data errors. ”

The good thing is that the data is wrong, but Liu Xi can see at a glance that this person is implying that the data of Stardew Valley is brushed.

Liu Xi tapped the desktop with his fingertips in front of the computer in distress, but I have to say that this time he did have a little brush in it.

These indie games are games that have never been exposed before, and if it weren't for this competition, most of the games would probably be on the Steam platform, and then a draft of a niche game webpage would be posted, and finally sink to the bottom of the sea, and they may not even be able to earn back the R&D fees.

As for those indie games that have been exposed before, they did not participate in this competition at all, after all, those games were either developed and put on the shelves early, or there were a large number of fans waiting for a long time, such as the "Legend of the Heroes", if these games also participated in the competition, then it would be extremely unfair to other players.

However, Liu Xi "cheated" and directly mobilized tens of thousands of fans of his own, not to mention him, so he directly crushed the games of other players.

At the beginning, Liu Xi was worried about whether his game would be eliminated in the second stage, but now he is worried that he will be hacked because his performance is too outstanding.

Stardew Valley has been updated three times in the past two days, although all of them are bug-free updates.

Qian Kun directly took a week off from the company on the grounds of his father's unfilial piety, and devoted himself to eliminating bugs and updating new content for the game. As for the price of undisciplined leave, it is the 1,000 yuan overtime pay guaranteed by Liu Xi.

Later, before preparing to continue working, Liu Xi searched the Internet for information about the mafia producer.

The producer of the game Mafia is actually very famous, and his name is Lin Feiyang.

In 06 years, he led the production of the stand-alone game "Apocalypse" that shocked the Chinese people, and this game even participated in foreign game exhibitions at that time, and was highly praised by domestic and foreign media.

However, unfortunately, because of the rampant piracy in 06, Lin Feiyang's studio lost nothing, and was finally acquired by an online game company, producing the most sophisticated online game "Eternal Era" in China at that time.

But what is even more regrettable is that the heart of that online game company is not to run games, but to squeeze games as much as possible, squeeze players, and invest the money earned in the real industry. So a year later, the game went out of business, and Lin Feiyang lost his job.

Later, Lin Feiyang used his previous background to remake various types of games, among which the most famous is the "Water Margin One" developed in 10 years, this time, players bought it very much, and regarded this game as a domestic stand-alone masterpiece, and at that time it was even named with "Three Swords".

But bad luck, Lin Feiyang hit the street again, the reason is still too much piracy.

This time, he almost jumped off the rooftop with a blow.

Although Lin Feiyang later entered a game company in obscurity after experiencing several street hits, now, after accumulating resources and money over the years, he quietly appeared in the National Independent Game Grand Prix, hoping to fire the first shot of his turnaround!

Then he came across Stardew Valley.

On the first day, the difference between Stardew Valley and Mafia was tripled, on the second day, it was five, and on the third day, it was almost tenfold.

it! Can't bear it! It's too much to invite a water army so blatantly!

Lin Fei trembled with anger, fortunately, his Weibo is also surrounded by some old fans, and he has been engaged in the game industry all year round, and he also has a lot of network resources.

He was furious!

first asked those game websites to help send press releases to promote the game, and then frantically @ those former friends on Weibo, when those friends responded, he finally fired at Liu Xi with confidence.

"Trash games! What else will you do besides brushing your grades? Your game is plagiarizing Ranch Story from start to finish! And it's not like plagiarism!

As a veteran game producer, I am deeply saddened by the current atmosphere! Distressed! ”

One day, when Liu Xi, who was thinking about which school to start from to find Ye Ke, learned the news, he was immediately confused.

I have an aura of being scared, don't I?
