1. What kind of game should I make?

Next Chapter

Galgame, also known as Bishoujo Game.

It's a kind of video game where players can interact with animated beautiful girls.,Its audience used to be neon men.,But with the development of the all-age GalGame plot for the audience is no longer divided into men and women.。

Most of the game genres of Galgame are VNG (Visual Novels), but there are also interactive Galgames.

To put it simply, it's an interactive game that falls in love with a beautiful girl.

……

March 1990.

Tokyo, Pokeni Co., Ltd.

The atmosphere inside the company is very solemn, and a faint sigh can be heard from time to time.

"I feel like the future is bleak."

"Isn't it, the company is just starting out and is going to be gone?"

"This time it should be completely hopeless, this game is not selling well, and with this unfortunate economic situation, the company will go bankrupt."

"Yes, who would have thought that last year's economic situation was very good, and this year it was like jumping off the roof."

"Really? I don't want the company to go bankrupt, I still have a family to support, and if I lose my job at this time......"

……

At the same time, inside the president's office.

Qing Zhiyuan was also sighing, but the reason for his sigh was different from these employees outside.

"What happened to this Nima? Even if you are reborn, you were actually reborn in an island country, and your parents died, and you still owe a lot of debts without a car or a house? ”

Yes, Qing Zhiyuan was reborn.

The current time is April 1, 1990, not the magic capital of China in 2023 that he is familiar with, and his current identity is the president of Pokeni Co., Ltd.

The neon of this parallel world, after the economic bubble burst last year, the whole country was in mourning, from the peak to the bottom, until now, the streets are full of homeless people who have lost their homes because of the bankruptcy of the company.

Pokeni, a small game company, has almost fallen to the brink of bankruptcy since the failure of its last game, and it remains to be seen whether it will be able to pay its employees on time next month.

"Ah...... It's hard to start with hell, otherwise it's better to find a job after going bankrupt. ”

Qing Zhiyuan frowned uncomfortably, holding his hands in bitterness.

But having said that, Qing Zhiyuan can only choose to make games, and if he can, it is best to run the company.

It's impossible to work part-time in this life.

In 1990, after the economic bubble burst in the island country, countless people were pessimistic and desperate, their willingness to consume dropped greatly, countless companies closed down and went bankrupt, and countless industries fell into the abyss, but there were a few who bucked the trend.

Games are one of them.

Although the island people have entered an era of economic stagnation and low consumption desire since then, it has also become a golden age for the development of the game industry.

Gaming will be the largest and most abundant consumer product for countless dead homes and cash fillers in the island nation in the coming decades.

……

What's more, Qing Zhiyuan's original job in his previous life was to make games.

Before being reborn, his identity was the main program of a two-dimensional project of miHoYo, and the technology must not be said, he is also one of the main developers of miHoYo's animation engine, and he has a great passion for games, and the company is the main two-dimensional one, which is more suitable for island games, so making games in this life is like a fish in water for him.

What surprised Qing Zhiyuan even more was that the original owner of this body still had a very strong painting ability before he became the producer.

Very good.

My programming ability, coupled with a lot of game experience, super drawing skills, and advanced aesthetics for the future world......

The corners of Qing Zhiyuan's mouth rose slightly.

There is no possibility of failure in making a game in this life.

……

"Pokeni is in danger now, and I have to find a way to save it."

The top priority is to get an investment, not to mention anything else, at least to do a good job of the plan first.

"You have to think about what you should copy first, ahh

There are a lot of 3A masterpieces in Qing Zhiyuan's brain, but there are several fatal shortcomings of 3A masterpieces: it takes a lot of people, a lot of money, and a lot of time.

Yes, that's basically the definition of 3A as well.

To put it simply, the general triple-A masterpiece refers to high-cost, high-volume, and high-quality games.

A game like Red Dead Redemption 2, which cost 5.6 billion yuan and took nearly 8 years to develop, is unimaginable.

The most Qingzhiyuan can grasp is high quality.

He turned on his computer, created a new txt file, and wrote down a line on it:

"The Legend of Sword and Fairy"

……

Qing Zhiyuan's first thought was the game "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a domestic stand-alone Chinese role-playing computer game released by Daewoo Information in 95, because of the grand story background, full of unique Chinese martial arts fantasy colors, plus a touching and healing story, it has achieved a generation of classics.

Xian 1's results are actually very good, with sales of more than 200,000 on China's treasure island, and later it was intended to be transplanted to Sega SS to enter the island market, but unfortunately Sega was not angry, and lost in the competition with Nintendo's console, so that Xianjian did not achieve good results on SS.

In addition to cultural differences, it can only be said that bad luck does not mean that the fairy sword is not good.

In Qing Zhiyuan's view, human emotions are the same, "clannad" an animation with obvious island country characteristics can still move Chinese, why can't fairy sword?

If there is still a big gap between the production level of the dos version of the fairy sword back then and the international mainstream, then now Qing Zhiyuan is standing on the mainstream of the world, with the current R&D strength of Pokeni company, the effect of development on FC can be better, as long as the characters are good-looking.

In addition, there is another very important reason why it is "The Legend of Sword and Fairy": although Pokeni's new work "Heart of the Sword" just released has hit the streets, this game is an out-and-out turn-based RPG game.

Turn-based, RPG, swordsman...... These are very compatible with "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", which can save at least half of the time in game development, at least most of the work on the program side has been completed, and the rest is to rebuild the art, replace it with another story and process, and add some details and functions to be perfect.

And the Fairy Sword series, especially the story of Fairy Sword 1, will definitely impress investors.

……

After staying up all night, Qing Zhiyuan simply wrote a rough story of the fairy sword, and made character settings and descriptions in it, and then called the company's copywriting planner Mika Ishino to the conference room.

"President, is there something going on?"

Ishino is a petite girl, in her 20s, wearing a pair of round-framed glasses and a white sweater that wraps her plump body that does not match her face.

Her voice was not loud, but Qing Zhiyuan could hear it clearly.

He glanced up at her and handed her the printed document.

"Take a look, can you write this story well, I'm going to make a business plan to find investment."

"Huh?"

Ishino's eyes lit up, so the company doesn't have to go bankrupt, and I don't have to lose my job?

Just a little bit in advance:

What is described in this book does not fully correspond to the real world.

It also does not reflect any real-world content.

Because there are some things that can't be written.

If you write it, you will be sealed.

Therefore, it will be rationalized and modified in this book.

As long as there is no logical flaw, then everyone thinks that the author is setting a parallel world.

If there is a flaw in the logic, it is also difficult to point it out in this chapter, and the author will change it when he sees it.

Thank you.
