"Brother Zhao, how should we promote this game, do we have to find a publisher ourselves?" In the studio, looking at the My World that had begun to run on the computer, Liu Dong asked.

Hearing Liu Dong's words, the people on the side also looked at Zhao Hao.

During this time, although Zhao Hao was optimizing the game alone, Liu Dong and the others were not idle, but made their own official website and prepared the debugging server as a multiplayer online server.

Regarding the issue of servers, because the expansion of the scale of the online store can bring nearly one million funds every month, Zhao Hao also purchased two blade servers, and specially built a computer room and database to hire someone to maintain it to prevent malicious attacks by hackers.

"Don't worry about the release, I've already submitted my world on Steam, as for the publicity vote, have you forgotten that I still have an identity?" Zhao Hao smiled slightly.

This is Zhao Hao's attention, by putting Minecraft into the world's largest digital game platform Steam, and then through his own live broadcast of the game, let his supporters know about the game, use the simplest and most effective way to promote it, and vote on the Steam platform for sale.

Once the results are good, the publishers will naturally have nothing to do, and they will swarm like sharks that smell fish.

And in this way, when the time comes to negotiate conditions, you can also gain the upper hand and strive to get the maximum benefits.

Hearing Zhao Hao's plan, Liu Dong's eyes couldn't help but light up.

This is a great way to do this, but there is a big limit to it, which is that the game you make has to be a good game.

However, whether it is Zhao Hao or Liu Dong, the main production staff, they all have infinite confidence in this game.

The graphics may be a flaw that can't be hidden, but as long as you actually get your hands on the game, you will know the greatness of the game.

"Brother Zhao, in fact, I think we can open up some source code and let players make some game mods and maps and other things by themselves." Guo Zhi on the side suddenly spoke.

"Wouldn't that give piracy a chance? Brother Zhao's encryption program, everyone has also seen it, unless it is a top hacker, otherwise the general cracking team can't crack it at all, and the most important thing is that this encryption program has not affected the game itself. Hearing Guo Zhi's words, Wang Han on the side frowned and said.

Yes, piracy is a very important factor, but in fact, there is a more important reason, Wang Han did not say.

For this game, Wang Han has no doubt that it will become popular in the world, and it is for this reason that at the beginning, Zhao Hao signed a very important benefit in the contract he signed with them, that is, the DLC share of the production.

But if you really do it according to Guo Zhi, it will inevitably be all kinds of strange shapes, and the imagination is rich, and incredible mods and maps will emerge in endlessly, but in this way, how many people will buy the DLC they officially made?

This is basically touching their interests, but Wang Han is actually a little uncertain in his heart, because Wang Han knows very well that if he does what Guo Zhi said, it will definitely make this game more popular.

Hearing the words of Guo Zhi and Wang Han, Zhao Hao was slightly silent and did not decide immediately.

Because of the exclusion of personal interest disputes, what the two said is indeed reasonable.

"What you said makes sense, so that we can open up some of the code, and we can even make a map editor that is more convenient and easy to use, or a mod maker for my own 'Minecraft'.

And as for the server problem, we should also re-plan, we can be like the games under the V Society, divided into player-built community servers, and online official servers. After a pause, Zhao Hao's squinted eyes opened slightly, and he looked at the people staring at him and said slowly.

"Community server?" Hearing Zhao Hao's words, everyone was slightly stunned.

Nodding, Zhao Hao said, "Yes, community server." ”

Let players set up their own servers, as for how to manage the server, how to plan and how to operate, it is none of Zhao Hao's business.

The only thing they have to do is to manage the official online server, and all mods and other things that appear on the official server are considered cheating, and they will be punished with a ban.

As for the offline and community servers, it is not Zhao Hao's management.

Seattle, WA, USA.

At Valve, Trevor Philip browses the submitted games on Steam.

Although the Steam platform is the world's largest data game platform, it also supports indie games to be released on the platform.

However, all games need to be submitted and reviewed, and then enter the area of Favored Light, and let players on the platform vote on them to confirm which games they will spend money to play.

Then decide whether the game will be released on the platform or not.

Of course, if you want to submit to Steam and enter the Light of Favor, it is a very difficult thing.

First of all, you need a $100 submission fee to eliminate some spam submissions, and then you must have a square logo of your company or studio.

Then you'll need at least one video of the game that shows the game's creative gameplay concept, as well as at least four in-game screenshots, as well as a textual description of the game and system requirements.

And now Trevor Philip was suddenly in the middle of the game, and he saw a very interesting game, at least from the name, he thought it was like this.

'Minecraft' waited until Trevor Philip saw the introduction later in the game, and couldn't help but be disappointed.

This game is made by a studio called Space Gate from China.

"A studio in China? What classic games can Chinese game studios make? Shaking his head slightly, Trevor Philip couldn't help but muttered to himself.

In his cognition, although China's game market is extremely huge, and users from China account for almost half of the Steam platform on the Steam platform, at least Trevor Philip is really not optimistic about the game.

However, although he is not optimistic, as a professional quality, Trevor Phillip still continues to watch the introduction of this game.

"The game configuration is low, but the picture quality doesn't seem to be much different from mosaic." The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, looking at the quality of the bricks like the mosaic, the disappointment in Trevor Phillip's heart was even more pointed.
