From Huang Ping's point of view, the game made by Fang Cheng is as wonderful as ever.

It's not a boast or a flattery, it's a real feeling of being a game lover.

Not to mention the picture performance, the interaction of items and various systems, there is a natural feeling that is appearing in addition, making Huang Ping feel that the games made by Fang Cheng have become more and more flavorful.

Each literary and artistic work has its own flavor, novels, movies, games, animations, ...... It may come from a line or an expression, but it's this detail that perfectly shows off the flavor of the game and makes people remember the game immediately.

And as the number of games produced increases, the games made by Fang Cheng are improving at a speed that is visible to the naked eye, which makes Huang Ping anxiously think about how to make him more perfect, so as to improve the quality of this game a little more.

It's just that the process is getting harder and harder, but it also further forces him to squeeze his potential and then get a bigger boost.

A few days later, the new game, I Am a Director, was adjusted.

Xiaodouzi has also completed the configuration of the numerical aspects, and various related game systems have also been adjusted, and the completion of the entire game has become very high, and it can be released at any time.

Judging from the progress of the project, the progress of this game is still very smooth, and none of the common problems in the development process of ordinary games have appeared, and the whole process is smoother than eating Dove.

But the more this is the case, the more Huang Ping feels wrong.

Not only him, but also Little Bean and Monkey felt that this game was very abnormal.

The process of game development is quite metaphysical, and the more you feel that there is no problem, the more problematic it is; The more you feel that something is wrong, the more serious it is.

But no matter how they played, they still couldn't think of the problem, and finally had to give up for the time being.

On Friday, the three planners found that they were okay with each other after work, so it was logical to start the planning night of the week.

I don't know when it started, but the second Friday of every month is the usual gathering time for the three of them, everyone will buy all kinds of food and snacks, and then go to Huang Ping's house to eat and play games, and play until the next day after lunch before leaving.

Huang Bin's girlfriend will go to her best friend's house on this night, and they will also start their best friend night, just enough to leave the home to Huang Ping and the three of them.

Although the maximum age gap between the three is 14 years, this does not prevent them from discovering that they have similar interests and personalities, and then become good friends.

This kind of friendship that can be built after work is quite rare in the eyes of the three of them.

With drinks, beer and various barbecues, the three of them sat down on the sofa in the living room, watched a Stephen Chow movie while eating, and then opened "Who is the Champion" to watch tonight's show.

After eating and drinking, they chatted for a while about the latest game developments, chatted about Tianyi's ongoing game promotion, and finally the topic finally fell on the recent game.

Huang Ping took a sip of beer, then frowned and asked, "Have you noticed that the game that the boss did this time is not quite right?" ”

"Hmm." Xiaodouzi nodded, "The graphics of the game are remarkable, the sound effects of the game are well matched, the small animations when filming the show are very interesting, and the higher the completion of various systems, but I just feel wrong." ”

The monkey on the side drank peach-flavored Coke, scratched his chin and said, "I don't think it's good, but I feel like there's something hidden in the game." ”

"Me too, I feel like the boss's bad taste has been done again." Huang Ping sighed.

"That's not a bad taste, that's a feature." Xiaodouzi said reverently, "If you can hide the easter eggs so extraordinary, only the boss can do it." ”

“…… Fanatics are terrible, but why do I think you have a point? ”

Now, Fangcheng Studio Games likes to bury easter eggs in the game, which is already a well-known meme.

At station B, some people will even specialize in popularizing this stalk, and use "this is an easter egg" to refer to some flips or "big ones are coming" and so on.

In the eyes of players, the game itself is just an appetizer, and the easter eggs are the main meal.

This meme is even more famous than the games made by Fangcheng Studios, which can also be seen that the influence of games on mainstream culture is gradually deepening.

And when they thought of the stalk that Fang Cheng hid in the game, they didn't find it, which made Huang Ping's three planners feel that they seemed to be a little derelict in their duties, and the bonuses they got a few days ago were a little hot.

The joyful atmosphere just now was immediately suppressed, and only the tidbits of "Who is the Champion" were left in the room, and Lao Wang said that the game asked "why" with a blank face.

After being silent for a while, Huang Ping took out the USB flash drive in his pocket and said seriously: "I copied the game out after work, do you want to watch it together?" ”

"Lao Huang, you're crazy!" Xiaodouzi was shocked, "You have a criminal record, have you forgotten about "Botanical Garden", do you still dare?" ”

"But I really can't help it, I must solve this secret." Huang Ping said firmly.

Looking at the USB flash drive the size of a little finger in Lao Huang's hand, Xiaodouzi and the monkey seemed to see Pandora's box and couldn't help but get nervous.

They really want to work overtime now, see the secrets hidden in the game, and find out the truth of the game, but they are afraid that the boss Fang Cheng will know.

After being discovered, they will have to take a compensatory day off, perhaps to make up for it the next weekend.

In Fangcheng Studio, the biggest punishment may be not allowed to go to work.

After thinking for a long time, Xiaodouzi turned his heart sideways, and then said: "Let's look at it secretly, discuss it secretly, don't write documents, don't make records." Boss or immortal? And just like that, you can still know that we are working overtime? ”

"Well, that makes sense." Huang Ping nodded.

"This time I'm on Little Bean's side." The monkey nodded as well.

After reaching a consensus, the three of them couldn't wait to turn on the computer, plugged in the USB flash drive, and the three of them looked at the screen together and secretly ran the game.

After these days of additions, the game has become even more perfect.

Now that the onboarding has been made and the game's system guidance has been perfected, there is almost no burden for new players to play.

The game can be a stand-alone machine or connected to the Internet, and if you are connected to the Internet, you can visit other people's programs that are being produced, and you can even make a cameo appearance in someone else's game, which is a small easter egg.

However, Huang Ping knew that this was definitely not a big easter egg arranged by Fang Cheng.

The real Easter egg is the one that can change the gameplay.

Why didn't you let the boss know that they were secretly working overtime in private, Huang Ping deliberately cut off his own network and started a stand-alone game.

Directly closed the novice guide, and Huang Ping quickly officially started the game.

This time, Huang Ping found that Fang Cheng deliberately did a subtraction method to limit the gameplay of the game very simply.

That is to constantly extract employees, train employees, and then let employees make various programs for themselves.

Although the player needs to handle the actual broadcast from the programming to the final broadcast, the whole process is just a matter of dotting and then assigning staff, and you can get started almost instantly.

The variety of performances in the game is humorous, random events are abundant, and the animation is rich and numerous, which makes the game not monotonous.

However, unlike the simplicity of the gameplay, the game actually has a lot of room for deep thinking.

Different employees have different labels, and different programs also have different labels.

When the labels of the two coincide. The efficiency of employees' actions will be greatly improved, resulting in better program results.

In addition, there are also matching effects between shows, and as the game develops, players will find that different times of time will also have different effects on the game, which can be found in reality.

After making the matchings and finally relaxing the show, players can see the final show ratings and see what the viewers are saying.

This link is Huang Ping's favorite link.

The ratings determine the final effect of the entire program and the financial subsidies at the top, and a program must be good enough to get high ratings.

Through the audience comments, it can be seen whether the collocation direction of the whole show is correct or not, and you can predict in advance what the audience likes in the near future and what the collocation is.

Although he didn't know what methods Fang Cheng used, after several attempts, Huang Ping found that these audience evaluations were flexible and changeable, as if a group of living viewers were staying in front of the TV to comment.

They can know exactly what themes and collocations the players use, some people can even recognize old acquaintances, and there are even some professional film critics among them, who take the trouble to introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the show.

The comments can be humorous or harsh. Some comments can make people laugh, but some comments can also make people break their defenses.

The game has a strong randomness, and the final outcome can be affected by many factors.

Sometimes, when a large amount of money is invested, a negative news from the relevant participants appears, which will cause the ratings to plummet, and the result is nothing.

But sometimes, even if the capital is not invested much, if it happens to be above the wind. Then the show may also be a hit. And then make a big profit.

In the game, the player's income mainly comes from the event funds distributed above, as well as advertising costs.

The expenses are the expenses of various service services, reporter interview fees, program arrangement costs, and employee salaries.

After re-experiencing it, Huang Ping and the three of them originally went in the direction of looking for easter eggs, but after playing for a while, they began to immerse themselves in the game and began to re-discuss the effects of each combination.

"I used to think that funny and suspense didn't go well together, but the actual effect was surprisingly good, and the audience's feedback was also very good, is this combination wrong?" The monkey asked, confused.

"I feel that it is because the funny attribute can dilute the tension caused by suspense and make the audience relax. And I have to say that many times the audience doesn't actually like reasoning. They just need an engaging story that they can immerse themselves in. And if the story is still interesting, so much the better. Huang Ping explained.

"Well, that makes sense. So how about we try to combine funny and gangster? What do you think we can call this show? ”

"The Black Society?"

"Well, that sounds funny. So how do you feel about dancing and gangsters? ”

"I imagined it...... Trouble gives me a brain that hasn't thought about such a thing. ”

"Anyway, let's take a look at the dance and the gangsters first."

"Don't ...... I'm running out of money. ”

"It's late!"

When the themes are assembled and handed over to the screenwriter, the show can start production.

During the production process, the stage will show different animation effects according to the theme chosen by the players.

For example, if it is a gangster and dance, then you can see a group of men wearing black suits, tattoos on their backs, and scars all over their faces, looking fierce and vicious, on the stage

Just by looking at their appearances, you know that these people are regulars on the wanted list, and the police have to empty their magazines when they meet.

However, the group began to sing and dance on stage.

The bald men gathered hand in hand, dressed in white ballet costumes, and then began to dance the four little swans.

They dance gracefully, their movements are elegant, although they look extremely spicy, but I don't know why, I feel quite emotional after watching too much.

Seeing this scene, Huang Ping, who was still against it just now, immediately laughed, and even Xiaodouzi laughed.

Strange combinations tend to bring more interesting feelings to players in front of the screen, which is also a small easter egg.

But it's still not enough.

After laughing, Huang Ping rubbed his stomach and said, "Alas, no, I'm running out of money." Fortunately, I saved the file before. Otherwise, this combination alone is enough to bankrupt us. ”

The monkey nodded: "That's right, this game is always short of funds. It costs money to buy a good script, it costs money to hire employees, and it costs money to train employees. They eat me and sleep with me, why should I give money? ”

He made a casual comment, but it made Xiaodouzi stunned, as if he understood something.

Pulling the monkey along, he asked solemnly, "What did you just say?" ”

"Why should I give money?"

Hearing this, Xiao Douzi seemed to have a lightning bolt in his mind.

He quickly restarted the game and began to keep trying, trying again and again to start the plot.

After a few attempts, he stared at the screen and began to ponder, and after ten minutes, he quickly restarted the game and continued to try.

Seeing such a nervous little bean, Huang Ping didn't dare to say a word, and it was useless to say it.

At this time, Xiaodouzi had completely entered the working state, and he couldn't hear anything he said.

Finally, Xiaodouzi slapped the keyboard and said excitedly: "I understand." ”

Turning his head, Huang Ping screen, finally saw the abnormality.

In the asset column, Xiaodouzi's assets have exceeded seven figures, but his staff values are not good, and the equipment of the program team is also in tatters, which is completely inconsistent with his actual assets.
