Chapter 49: Game Released! I can't close my mouth sadly!
With the implementation of Kejin's plan.
The number one gamer is starting to get into the development of new games.
One day, Ke Jin went to pick up Ke Yu from school and went back to the company together, and there was a stop-motion illustration in "Wind Journey" that she needed to refine.
When passing by the tree-lined path in front of the company.
A gust of wind blows, and the green leaves scatter all over the sky.
Ke Yu felt that such a scene was very leisurely and comfortable, so she stopped and stretched out her little hand, gently waiting for a fallen leaf to lie in her palm.
"Brother, look, there's a small hole in this leaf that has been eaten out by insects."
"I can see you through this hole, hee." Keyu put the fallen leaves in front of his eyes and looked along the wormhole to the other end.
The old brother was wearing a loose short T, and the lower body was a gray slim sweatpants, and he was looking at himself with his hands in his pockets full of disgust: "If you can't go, the whole company is waiting for you to change the illustration." ”
"Hey, let's go." The rain will lay down the fallen leaves that are hidden in front of you.
The old brother in front of him suddenly changed into a Klein blue sweatshirt, light green military pants with velvet, and a pair of yellow men's Martin boots on his feet.
And the emerald green leaf in his hand was also unconsciously replaced by time into a withered orange, full of cracks, and shattered into countless petals with a gentle twist.
"Time flies so fast, it's late autumn in the blink of an eye." Clapped his little hands and brushed away the broken leaf chips on his hands, Ke Yu sighed.
It's as if the project of "Wind Journey" was still yesterday, and she was still giggling and playing with her brother on the leafy path.
But in a blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and "Wind Journey" has also completed the last quality inspection today.
The voices of the employees have gone from being quite complaining at the beginning, to now everyone has expectations in their eyes.
Even Keyu had to admit it.
Wind Traveler is a great game!
recalled the shock that "Wind Journey" brought to all employees when it was first tried in the company.
She was also there at the time, her mouth was about to stuff an egg, and the tears in her eyes kept swirling, and they were about to turn into poached eggs and tears.
"Brother, I've been with you for so long, why didn't I find out that you still have such an amazing talent?" Ke Yu reached out and grabbed his brother's arm, turned his back to the sunset, and walked with him on the way home.
"What."
"Game, game." Ke Yu pouted his little tongue again and again: "A few months ago, you suddenly told me that you were going to make a game, and then told me the whimsy in your head, I was stupid, and then you fooled me into making a game together, but I didn't expect ......"
As she spoke, she paused, then looked back and forgot to glance at the company that was about to be submerged in the orange sunset.
Unexpectedly, the company is now gradually on the right track.
Two months.
The popularity of "Skylines" is also slowly fading.
But looking back on the first month of release, it still earned a lot of 9.73 million!
You know, this is an amazing achievement that took only half a month after the ad was removed! It was directly included in the list of the best works of the year by the NAA.
And in the following month, about 5 million turnover was retained.
Although this record is inseparable from the official wave of pushes.
But it's also a testament to the quality of Skylines itself.
Kejin is not as leisurely and elegant as Keyu.
He looked at the lights of thousands of homes slowly lit on the side of the road, and thought in his heart.
The release date of "Wind Journey" has been set for the early hours of Friday morning, and the price is 79 yuan.
Kejin wanted to push the price down a little more.
But the exquisite and beautiful picture, the entire staff of the number one player lasted a month of painstaking polishing.
The pricing is too low, and the employees will probably feel uncomfortable.
But the good thing.
The companion tasks of the system are also out.
The regular task is to reach 5 million topics on the whole network.
That is, the cumulative popularity indicators of all platforms add up to more than 5 million.
It's not too difficult.
The ultimate task made Ke Jin breathe a sigh of relief.
This time the indicator is no longer turnover.
It's the sales volume.
Less than 100,000 copies sold are required.
In other words, even if you have a game priced at 999 and sold 99,000 copies, the system will not care if the turnover on the surface has soared to 100 million.
As long as it doesn't exceed 100,000 copies.
"100,000 copies, if nothing else, it basically can't be sold...... Right? "For the sake of safety, Kejin doesn't plan to set a flag for himself this time.
A true master, always with the heart of an apprentice!
……
Time flickered, and finally it was the early hours of Friday morning.
Since the number one player has already made a name for himself by relying on the previous games, he has accumulated a certain number of fans.
Therefore, at this time, there are already many players waiting in the comment exchange area at the bottom of the official website.
Ke Jin was also squatting.
He wanted to see what the first reaction of players was when they came into contact with the game.
And, the entire company stayed up late with him today.
Just to see how high the game's first-day sales can be.
Soon, the whole company learned the results.
Half an hour before the sale.
"Hurry up, hurry up!! I can't wait for the spicy!! ”
"Kebao rush! We'll be behind your back! ”
Half an hour after the sale.
"Uh...... It's a bit hard to evaluate. I played for half an hour and didn't know what to do...... Sure enough, I still can't accept a story game? ”
"How do you feel that this new game of Ready Player One is a bit ...... Pull? ”
"I can't say it, the picture quality is good, the scene is beautiful, but what is the point of this game? I wandered around the map for half an hour, and I collected two murals, and then I couldn't understand what the murals were about......"
"This game is too abstract!"
"This game is really not fun, but the number one player company is still as conscientious as ever, and actually allows refunds, brothers, I will run first! Let's support the next game! ”
An hour later.
The expressions of the employees have also changed from the initial expectation to the helplessness and bitterness on their faces.
"The Wind Journeyman"
Sold poorly!
In one hour, more than 20,000 copies have been sold, relying on the previous word-of-mouth effect alone.
But the refund rate is a staggering 95%!
Without exception, the comment area is 'I don't understand', 'abstract', 'It's too advanced, Ha people', 'I don't like plot games', 'Screenshots can be used as wallpapers, the rest, I can't say', 'See you next game, come on the number one player!' ’
Seeing this data, Ke Jin originally laughed wildly in his heart.
What you want is that you can't understand it, you can't understand it.
If you can really play it, it will be a big problem.
But when I turned my head to look at the worried expressions of the employees, and some of the female employees with poor ability to resist pressure, they covered their faces and sobbed quietly.
The corners of Ke Jin's mouth twitched again and again, and he suddenly felt that his merits were about to fall.
I'm really not human...... Hahaha.
The employees worked hard to make the game, and it didn't sell well, but I almost laughed out loud......
What a damn thing...... Hahahaha.
"Huh......" took a deep breath and forcibly restrained the joy in his heart.
Rest assured, brothers!
As long as the conditions of this game are met, you will be given a paid vacation for all of you for a month!
When you get back, listen to me tell you about the game-renaissance plan for Ready Player One!
"That'...... Don't ...... anything. Don't be so sad. The corners of Ke Jin's mouth trembled, and he tried his best to hold down his joy and squeeze out a sad expression.
But this wave of heart and expression did not cooperate very well, so that some sad could not close their mouths.
In order to avoid goofs, he hurriedly said: "It's not too early, let's go home and sleep, and take a day off tomorrow to relax and relax." ”
When I saw it, I always comforted me.
The employees are also gradually relieved.
yes, the game sold poorly.
Mr. Ke is the saddest person we have here!
He was busy before and after, in charge of planning, and also invested money, and spent so much effort.
But you can see that he is still laughing at this time.
What else do we have to be sad......
"Okay, Mr. Ke, then we'll go first." Some employees said.
"Well, I'll keep it closed tonight, you guys go back quickly, everyone has worked hard."
Let's go, if I don't go, I'm really living in Bengbu!
"Okay, don't be too sad, this game seems to us to be fine, we can only say that the players can't understand it yet."
"Don't worry, I'm not sad, you guys go back quickly."
When he finally sent off the last employee who regretted his farewell, he watched him leave the street in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Ke Jin smiled a little.
He's been waiting for this moment for too long!
However, as has been the case in the past.
We must not be overjoyed now, lest we be overjoyed and sad.
I got up and walked to the refrigerator, and my fingertips swept over the champagne that was originally used for the employees to celebrate, and finally stopped in front of the happy water.
Take it out and pour yourself a goblet.
Sitting on the boss's chair, Ke Jin turned on the computer, turned on several mainstream live broadcast platforms such as Shark, Thunderbolt Station, and Wolf Tooth, and quickly swept his eyes across the major live broadcast rooms.
The initial screening of players has been completed.
But then, there is the most difficult hurdle to face.
The test of the anchor!
