Soon, there was a discussion on the Internet about whether "Face" had a combat system.

If there is, then discuss in detail how to deal with these ghosts.

If you say you don't have it, you will be ridiculed by the group, saying that the game is too little, go home and make up for it.

Its topic is high, occupying the top position of major game websites.

completely made the game "Jungle Horror" fade out of the public eye.

Even if there is a UP strategy video on the barrage network, the comments at the bottom are also fun to watch.

There are jokes, and I can't even copy it.

This led to the collapse of sales, and the kind that couldn't even be saved, made the technical game network once again the object of players to open champagne.

At this time, in a science and technology park in Penn City, Mr. An, the executive president of Jiyou Network, looked at the financial report with an ugly face.

He asked one of the five studios directly on the internal communication network to jump the studio to the 5th floor for a meeting.

Without him, "Jungle Horror" was developed by this studio.

Now that sales are dying violently, it is natural to ask for clarification.

Yang Ying, the person in charge of the studio, sighed in his heart after receiving the news, and sighed in his heart, it was really here that he should have come...

When the company set up the project, he knew it was going to be bad.

One is that the team has no experience in horror games, so they don't know how to write a story or what kind of scary techniques to use, and the word atmosphere is full of question marks.

Second, the project development cycle is too short, only two months...

Peers won't believe this development time, and even people from other studios will think it's a fantasy when they hear it.

But it really is, and it's the jumping studio he is in charge of taking over...

It makes him want to point at the nose of the high-level and scold: Fuck the grass! Do you know how to make games?

Yang Ying sighed, got up and looked at his colleagues around him, and shook his head.

Then I called the chief planner, the main plan, and a total of 4 people from the main United States came to the conference room on the 5th floor.

As soon as I entered, I saw President An sitting on the main seat with a calm face, as if nothing had happened, looking at the Chinese parts in his hand.

This made several people feel apprehensive and uneasy.

Calm before the storm!

Yang Ying and the others found a place to sit down and waited for Mr. An to speak, but he kept staring at the documents in his hand and did not respond for a long time.

The conference room of Nuoda made Yang Ying and others feel pressured.

So under the request of the eyes of the chief planner and others, as the person in charge, he had to ask out loud.

"Mr. An...?"

The voice is small and the tone is cautious.

After all, the current An is always famous for looking at KPIs to speak, once the company had a very capable supervisor, because the KPI of the month was not up to standard, was deducted bonus, so Mr. An directly disbanded the team, and arranged him into another group, and after a long time he resigned.

It can be said that Mr. An is completely the kind of leader who is not close to people.

Hearing someone calling him, the president raised his head, glanced at everyone, and finally his gaze fell on Yang Ying.

This made the latter feel the pressure again.

Simply, Mr. An's eyes did not look at it much, but moved to the document in his hand again, which made several people feel relieved.

"Yang Gong, let me ask you, how many people are in the jumping studio now."

Mr. An's voice was flat and emotionless, and his eyes did not look at them, but he gave them a feeling of being judged.

Yang Yingyu paused for a moment and answered the question.

"Counting a few of us, there are 32 of them."

Mr. An nodded and continued to ask.

"With so many people, plus the company's budget of 1.2 million, what is the sales volume of "Jungle Horror", you can tell me."

Yang Yingdian felt a headache.

The problem of sales is also something that has made him sleepless these days.

Because it sold so little, he was too little to answer now.

But the president asked, and he couldn't help but say it, right?

So Yang Ying took a deep breath and whispered the sales data.

“... 1408 sets. ”

"1408, yes."

Mr. An immediately answered, and his tone was flat.

This reaction only gave Yang Ying and the others a feeling of increasing unease.

"Tell me, with a development budget of more than one million and more than 30 people, how did you make this kind of game? This is not counting the publicity cost of more than 400,000 yuan. ”

Yang Ying scratched his head, glanced at the master beside him, and saw that he shook his head helplessly, so he had to answer again.

"Mr. An, this has nothing to do with the small number of people, the main reason is that the development cycle is insufficient. This kind of game with a lot of details and gameplay really needs time to polish. But with 2 months of development, we can only put in all our efforts. A game like this would take a year to say the least..."

"Then why can someone else do it in such a short time?"

Mr. An interrupted Yang Ying's words without hesitation, and his eyes moved away from the documents in his hand and looked at him.

"Others are developing alone, you are more than 30 people developing, and your numerical advantage can't withstand the time cycle? It's not as good as someone else's month? ”

Yang Ying and the others suddenly widened their eyes, they couldn't believe that the president in front of them really believed this statement!

Alone? One month? Obviously a gimmick, okay!

Why did Mr. An really believe it...?

They looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Mr. An was not in a hurry, staring at them with his hands on his chest, waiting for an explanation.

Yang Ying glanced at the main Cheng and motioned for him to answer this technical question.

The latter looked ugly, but he still opened his mouth to explain.

"Mr. An, we have analyzed the game "Dark Forest", not to mention the art, plot and numerical settings, just in terms of technical ability, it is impossible for one person to make a volume in a month. There must be a group behind this..."

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mr. An waving his hand.

"I asked you to come, not to brag about how good others are, but to tell me, what should you do now in the face of this situation?"

Mr. An put down the Chinese piece in his hand, and his expression was very unhappy.

"Do you know why you stopped working on the Flames of War? It's because the horror genre now has signs of fire! This blank market with few people will be able to get a piece of the cake early if you enter it early. If you look at the game of the Dark Forest or the Darkness or something, isn't it a good harvest of word-of-mouth sales? If others can do it, why can't we do it? That's why I'm asking you to stop the shooting game in your hand, hurry up and study and analyze the structure of the black forest game, and copy another one out to test the water. ”

Mr. An got up and lit a cigarette.

In the conference room, only people in his position dared to smoke here.

"I was thinking that with your level, how can you make a finished product, and then with the company's publicity channels and reputation, even if it doesn't sell well, you can return to the cost. In this way, the market situation is clear, and the next game can be established and developed as soon as possible. But the result? Only 1408 units sold? Blame the company for not giving enough development cycles? ”

After Mr. An finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the few people who never replied, he shook his head.

"Now your problem is that the KPI is too much behind the other groups, and "Jungle Horror" has not yet been made, and "Jungle Horror" has lost first. At the same time, many companies are now eyeing the horror game market, and your game has become a stepping stone for someone else. And that only game is going to be released recently, what are we going to do? ”

"Since you said that the company gives a short development cycle, that's fine. The company has given you a new opportunity. ”

He picked up the document he had read earlier, slid it over the conference table, and arrived right in front of Yang Ying.

The latter was puzzled, reached out to pick it up, opened it and looked at it, and his eyes widened suddenly.

Mr. An saw him pick it up and continued to speak.

"Horror in the Jungle" was when the company failed to test the waters, and the boss also admitted it. You should have experience making horror games by now, so that's giving you a second chance. Now the second budget appropriation document has been issued at great expense, 6.65 million. Asking for an original high-quality horror game to enter the market, you can not ask for high sales, but you must gain the reputation of those who only know how to play games, and lay the foundation for future projects. ”

Yang Ying looked at the budget document in his hand, and then at the mastermind, and under the pressure of the second chance, an unprecedented idea of a horror game sprouted in his heart.

...

On the Internet, although the sales of "Jungle Horror" are not good, its price remains the same, still 168 yuan, which can be regarded as a technical game that is determined to remain the same.

This can only make netizens praise 'It's really you, Jiyou.' ’

It's all rotten like this, and you still save face?

On the other side, the only game, Meng Shu is carefully polishing the game in the development engine that can be used by monkeys.

"Face" has been developed, and this is the third time he has polished it.

Although with the help of the system, the game has no bugs and does not need to be polished, but the problem lies in the horror experience.

The reason is that when he was wearing VR and trying it out, he was shocked by the very realistic atmosphere inside!

It's a different kind of gaming experience than a computer screen!

Especially when he tested the decrease in San value and the resentful spirit came out to chase and kill, the sense of despair and hope for survival in the experience was incomparable.

Even he couldn't help but feel a trace of nervousness and fear.

You must know that Meng Shu himself has cleared the customs before, and he is clear about where there are high-energy points in the game and where there are plot trigger points.

Even he had such a fearful mentality.

That player can't be worse?

In fact, Xia Nianzhen was already scared to cry when she tried the game.

So, if you let players play with an ignorant expression of 'I'm new', it may have the opposite effect...

Therefore, he repaired again and again, trying to optimize and improve some places that were too terrifying, so as not to make people go wrong.

In this way, time passed day by day, and the day before the release date, "Face" was finally completed!
