Chapter 93: Being so cool that my scalp is numb! You kid can make games!

After confirming the establishment of the project.

The employees of the number one player are motivated.

For this new type of game, it was also a new challenge for them.

If Kejin hadn't driven them back to sleep at 10 o'clock at night, they would have been eager to live in the company.

Although the overall amount of work in Stardew Valley is not large, the seven-day period is still a bit tight, requiring employees to focus on their posts almost all day, even working overtime from morning to late at night.

In the face of such desperate employees, Ke Jin saw it in his eyes and was not stingy.

Overtime pay is directly calculated according to three times of the holiday, and lunch + afternoon tea + dinner + after-dinner fruit + supper, he will personally help employees book all in advance and deliver them to each employee's workstation free of charge.

In addition, the cost of going home from the night shift will also be reimbursed!

On top of that, it's time for the summer season to come.

Ke Jin also contacted a decorator in the past two days, renovated the pantry, and put up two vertical refrigerators, filled with purified water and various drinks.

There is also a large refrigerated cabinet filled with assorted ice cream.

From cheap old popsicles to bitter coffee, to cute, and even Häagen-Dazs, Dream Dragon series, and more, you name it.

Let your employees choose.

Such benefits made the employees, who were already very loyal to the number one player, almost moved to tears.

A game company, the biggest inspiration and creativity, the most detailed details of the project, the boss is all out of the situation.

They just have to follow the plan and do it.

But in this case, the company benefits of the number one player are still considered to be beyond the standard in the industry.

Many employees uploaded photos of the company's benefits throughout the day to the circle of friends.

instantly aroused the eyes of a group of other peers.

"I'm super? Are you here for work or for a vacation? ”

"Is Ready Player One still hiring? Although I am the head of department at another A-list company, the treatment of the number one player even makes me want to go to their company to sweep the floor......"

"There is no harm without comparison, blanch!"

"You should forward this to our boss and take a look! Everyone is a president, how can they always be exceptional? ”

"Ahem, I hope Xiao Ke won't do this again, our employees have already gone to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to report me...... The conscience of heaven and earth, I just let them 997 every day, it's really not much. ”

Facing the envy of other peers who are about to overflow the screen, and the anger of the bosses of the peers overflowing the screen.

It also attracted the employees of the number one player to cherish this work even more.

Just after graduating from university, I joined such a company where the boss is not only talented, but also very generous, and the prospects are very bright, is there anything luckier than this?

it to death! Hear me, I'm going to do it to death!

So, under the crazy sprint of the employees.

"Stardew Valley" passed the internal second test on the evening of the sixth day, not even on the seventh day.

Leave it to the program department to work overtime at night and then modify and fine-tune some bugs, and you can put it on the shelves at any time.

In the process.

Ke Jin also put the way he had already thought about helping farmers, and asked the program department to make a small jump link and implant it into the game.

And opened a theme section on the official website of the number one player.

As long as the player can get through to a specific node he sets and unlock an achievement, this jump dialog box will pop up, and you can jump to the official website by clicking on it.

Ke Jin has full grasp and confidence in "Stardew Valley".

It's not uncommon for him to insert extra content into the game's opening screen, or to pop ads during gameplay.

The benefits are too low.

It's possible that the player is playing well, and you can't just play an advertisement to help farmers, which will only make the player frown and then click ×.

It didn't work at all.

Let's recruit high-quality buyers!

Let peers feel what it means to be a 'buyer unsalable, please help us!' ’

It was early in the morning of the seventh day.

Chang Detai faced an email from the number one player company about the finished product of "Stardew Valley".

I almost didn't squirt out all the goji berry tea I just took a sip.

"Damn, is this kid really??" Chang Detai wiped his mouth and looked at the mailbox with round eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Do it will definitely do.

The number one company is not small now, and the spit is a nail, and Chang Detai is naturally not worried about being pigeons.

But he has been immersed in the game industry for so many years, and he can't make games, but he also knows that there is usually a well-known word in the game industry - bounce ticket.

The time given by the Huaguang Bureau is quite generous, and it is valid until the Golden Autumn Festival, which is a small and long-term public welfare activity.

Therefore, Kejin said at that time that it would only take seven days.

Chang Detai didn't care.

A game that doesn't bounce tickets, can it still be called a game?

What if he is given ten days and half a month to polish carefully?

Not bad for this day and two days!

The result is who knows.

The boy didn't even finish the seventh day......

I can't wait to send it early in the morning.

In other words, their actual completion time is only six days......

"This ......" In the face of this kind of development speed of the Kazakh people, Chang Detai couldn't help but be a little worried.

Isn't this a shoddy game to complete the mission......

"Let me take a look."

While speaking, Chang Detai clicked on the installation package.

The game is not large, and it didn't take long to download.

Can't wait to click run.

The UI interface for the opening game is simple and beautiful, with only a wooden sign hanging above the screen, on which are written five large characters "Stardew Valley"

At the same time, the soft and beautiful chords of the guitar sounded in my ears at the right time.

Adds to the tranquility and relaxation of the atmosphere.

The game hasn't even started yet, and the pleasant and relatable background sound makes Chang Detai feel like he's entering a cozy world full of farmland life.

Suddenly, his anxiety about helping farmers and public welfare for a while was also being relieved little by little.

The game is pixel art quality, which makes Chang Detai feel good.

Perhaps for many gamers, pixel-style graphics are outdated.

Nowadays, more players are looking for awesome graphics, beautiful modeling, and a magnificent epic world view.

But in Chang Detai's eyes, it's the opposite.

He's lived through the video game period in the truest sense of the word.

When I was still in college, it was the end of the 90s, and the red and white machine was emerging.

At that time, the games were all stacked with a bunch of pixel blocks, and then combined with the magical 8-bit electronic sound effects that could only be generated by 8-bit audio chips due to technological development limitations.

But I still had a lot of fun.

Chang Detai always feels that the pixel style is more representative of the game industry. It is a unique feature that no other industry has.

"From the music aspect, I feel like I've put a lot of effort into it, but I don't know what the game is about." Chang Detai, whose heart was not completely put into his stomach, clicked the [Create Game] button in the lower left corner.

After a while, a piece of CG pops up in the game.

Inside the Western-style house, candles flicker on the fireplace.

An old man with gray hair was lying on the bed, holding a letter in his hand.

"To my most special grandson:

Please accept this letter.

Don't open it yet, please be patient.

Listen up.

The moment when you feel overwhelmed by the burdens of real life.

The moment when your spirit dies in the face of emptiness.

If there is such a day.

My grandson, you can open this gift.

Now, then, let Grandpa have a good rest."

See this narration.

Chang Detai's thoughts were inexplicably a little erratic.

Grandpa...... It's a word that hasn't been mentioned in years.

I still remember the first red and white machine when I was young, which was my grandfather, an old farmer with loess in the sky, who collected vegetables from the vegetable garden and sold them in the market for a week, and then saved the money to buy a birthday gift for himself.

The old man has been dead for many years, and he is now almost old enough to be a grandfather.

But every time I think of his old man, I can always feel the warmth and peace in my heart.

"I have to say that this cut has a good sense of substitution." Chang Detai sighed slightly.

This is just a short CG, the picture is not exquisite, and the text is relatively short.

But he could feel the sincerity of the number one player.

Everyone has a grandfather, and everyone's grandfather's generation is almost all farmers.

This entry point is well chosen, and it matches the theme of helping farmers very well.

Chang Detai's brows soothed slightly, and he clicked the [Continue] button again.

He also wanted to know, what kind of special gift did the old man in the game want to give to himself?

After a short narration process.

The screen turns.

What catches my eye is a company with a more depressing atmosphere called JJOJA.

Employees are 'imprisoned' in separate offices divided into four squares.

It can be intuitively seen that there is a camera hanging on the top of each employee's office workstation, as if it is always keeping an eye on whether the employees are lazy.

And the desk is cluttered and dirty.

As the camera progresses, it is not difficult to see that some employees are directly tired and faint at their workstations.

The rest of the staff continued to work hard with expressionless faces.

This somewhat exaggerated performance made Chang Detai couldn't help laughing.

Although it is an exaggeration, I recall my work experience when I first graduated.

It can be regarded as more realistic and close to life.

At the same time, the protagonist, who is already physically and mentally exhausted, opens the drawer after looking around.

I turned out the letter that my grandfather had left for him.

"Dear grandson.

When you start reading this letter, it means that you urgently need to change the status quo.

I've had times before when I neglected the most important thing in life, which was the connection between people, and the relationship between people and nature.

So I gave up everything and came to a place that truly belonged to me.

……

Now, I'm gifting you this place, located right on the coast in the town of Stardew Valley, and it's the perfect place to start a new life.

Love, Grandpa."

It can be seen from the envelope.

The late grandfather left a farm with fertile soil for his beloved grandson.

When the protagonist packs his luggage and takes a long-distance bus all the way to the small town of Stardew Valley, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers.

After several twists and turns, he stood in front of the farm that his grandfather left for him.

This is where the game begins.

Let's be honest.

When Chang Detai saw the big farm in front of him for the first time, he felt disgusted, and his brows frowned slightly.

As far as the eye can see, the dilapidated log cabin has not been repaired for a long time.

Messy farms, weeds everywhere, trees growing wildly, and piles of rocks.

This is a sight that looks like a 'garbage dump' in front of the player's eyes.

It's like an old house that has been abandoned for hundreds of years in the deep mountains and old forests.

When you come up, the pressure is full?

It's not easy or casual......

Until, he saw the screen at the bottom of the screen that showed the inventory.

A row of farm tools has been placed inside.

Pickaxes, hoes, sickles, axes, and a small watering can.

"Mean, let's take care of it ourselves?" Chang Detai thought about it and began to operate.

Although he is not young, he has been in the game circle for more than ten years, and he still has this little understanding.

Besides, he knew that there was a well-known anchor Lao Yinzi in the anchor circle next door, who was more than forty years old.

But the operation and game understanding are much stronger than some young people.

Hmph, the veteran hasn't withered yet!

Chang Detai also quickly switched to a sickle, and lightly clicked the left mouse button on the circle of weeds in front of him.

"Huh!"

The sound effect of mowing the grass came out, and the character swung out with a knife, and directly cut down a large area of weeds in front of him!

A small circle of clean, fertile soil was exposed.

Chang Detai's eyes couldn't help but become a little brighter!

This......

What's going on with this inexplicably decompressing?!

Chang Detai thought that the clean-up process would be very cumbersome.

is accustomed to seeing krypton games on the market, and even makes Chang Detai subconsciously think that he will be cold and want to jump out of a pop-up window, [the first charge of X yuan can be one-click to organize the farm]

I have to say, he loves the feeling of cleaning up.

He continued to wield his scythe and walked towards another weed pile.

"Huh!"

Another knife accompanied by comfort.

In the next five minutes.

Chang Detai did almost nothing else.

The light is tidying up the yard in front of his hut.

In the process of sorting, I gradually explored the use of various agricultural tools.

To clear the weeds, use a sickle.

Cutting down trees is naturally an axe, and mining stones is done with a pickaxe.

The hoe can plough the land, turning the bright yellow soil into a dark brown 'suitable for planting' state.

In addition to this, the kettle can be used to water the seeds.

Soon, he cleared the overgrown yard in front of his farmhouse.

Look at the clean land in front of you.

Chang Detai suddenly felt that he had obtained a different kind of pleasure that he had never obtained in other games.

A 'orderly' joy!

Often, people feel good when they look at the new floor and the well-organized furniture after doing their chores.

But this comes at the cost of hard labor.

However, in the game, the engraver designer has obviously minimized this 'cost'.

All it takes is one click.

You can harvest a small range of 'orderly' states!

I have to say, it's a very good feeling.

"But what's next?" Chang Detai flipped through his task list.

One is to say hello to the townspeople.

The other is to complete a sowing process.

There are also 15 packs of rice seeds that are given under the task box (Note: The newbie package in the original game is parsnip, but parsnip is basically not available in China, including some subsequent content will be fine-tuned reasonably, forgive me.) )

"You mean let me farm?" Chang Detai muttered while switching hoes.

15 packets of seeds, corresponding to 15 small squares of land.

He quickly turned out a 3x5 dark brown earth and was able to bury the seeds in it.

Then water the kettle in turn.

"And then just wait for the harvest?" After the whole process was completed, Chang Detai looked at the seedlings in front of him that were moistened by water.

But there was a very peculiar feeling in my heart inexplicably.

"It's really a real farming game......

Good guys, this is really not off-topic at all!

If you say farming, you will farming!

After coming up and cleaning up the yard, work will start.

At first, Chang Detai himself was a little confused about the genre of farming.

In reality, it is possible to farm, but how can it be embodied in the game? Will players have the patience to wait for the spring plough and autumn harvest?

And now, the number one player has given him an answer.

In simple terms.

The engraved designer has refined the original complex and cumbersome content to the extreme.

Let the player only need to turn the soil, sow seeds, and water to complete the steps of farming.

Farmers need to weed, pest, water, and fertilize day after day, and they do not rest in the scorching sun.

When the autumn harvest comes, it is a process of hard work.

And when it comes to the player, there is almost no hard work, just waiting for the harvest.

Farming games reduce the difficulty of getting happiness to a minimum!

Although the difficulty has been reduced, it does not mean that the player has not put in the effort.

It is also through the player's own operation that these seeds are sown.

So, you will also get a matching sense of accomplishment.

At least.

Chang Detai faced his neat and orderly 3*5 field and sowed the seeds of rice.

There is a faint sense of satisfaction in my heart.

Due to the fact that a large circle of debris was cleaned just now, coupled with sowing seeds and watering, it takes physical strength.

Chang Detai realized that there were physical limitations in the game.

At this point, his protagonist's stamina has been used up, and the game system begins to prompt him to go to rest.

Go back to your dilapidated hut and get some sleep and you'll be able to end your first day.

Also, there is a large recycling bin next to the house.

You can throw all the items on your body except farm tools into it, and your income will be settled when you sleep.

Chang Detai threw into it some plant fibers, tree seeds, and some stones that he had just scavenged during the cleaning.

After entering the house and clicking on sleep.

The checkout screen on the first day is presented.

A series of crisp gold coin tumbling sounds emerge.

[Today's Earnings: 34 Coins]

"Okay, you're going to make money so quickly?" There was a small dark churn in my heart.

Soon, wait until the next day arrives.

Chang Detai pushed open the door.

I was shocked by the scene in front of me.

The seeds he had just sown yesterday.

Today, patches of green seedlings have been born.

Looking at the greenery in front of your house, it is full of life.

Chang Detai was a little happy in his heart.

"This kid has actually reduced the speed of planting and growth rapidly?"

"It's true that if you follow the real-life crop growth time, this process will be very slow, and even if you can sleep for a day, the player will need to click a dozen times in a row to achieve it."

"He accurately captures the psychology of the player, so that every time the player wakes up, he can see the changes......"

This can arouse Chang Detai's curiosity.

On the second day of the game, he simply didn't do anything, just watered the seeds a little, and then clicked to sleep.

On the third day, when I got up.

Sure enough, I saw that the tender green seed had grown again.

When you click on it, you will see a prompt popping up with "Estimated Maturity Time: 2 days".

Chang Detai's sense of antiquity was completely hooked.

He wanted to see what the rice would look like when it was fully grown, and how much it would sell for after the harvest.

Water, keep sleeping!

Day 4.

Watering.

Sleep again!

Finally, when the fifth day came.

Chang Detai manipulates the protagonist to push open the door of the hut.

When I landed, I was attracted by the small 3x5 field that I had ploughed out at the door.

A yellow crop swayed in the wind, and the heavy ears of rice were bent over by the weight of the full grains of rice.

Mature!

Chang Detai's eyes were full of joy, as if he had become a farmer in the loess at the moment, and he was full of joy when facing the harvest of crops.

He even felt like he hadn't been so excited in a long time.

Rushed to the wheat field.

Right-click the mouse button to pocket the ripe crop.

The magical sounds of 'poo', 'po', and 'po' that are unique to harvesting crops fill my mind.

In a short time, all 15 fields were swept away.

And what made him even happier was that.

15 parts of seeds, theoretically only 15 parts of rice can be produced.

But in fact, he had 18 in his backpack!

Extra output!

"This kid actually added some factors that are not in reality."

"He took the common crit stream settings in the game and applied them to farming?"

"Good boy...... You're too good at grasping the player's mentality. Chang Detai's eyebrows raised slightly, and he was even more happy in his heart!

This is an unexpected bonus!

Every extra share you get means you can sell an extra portion.

What farmer doesn't want the crops he has worked so hard to grow can be sold more and more?

And when Chang Detai looked at it carefully.

Once again, I was shocked by the whimsical ideas of this kid Ke Jin!

Of the 18 portions of rice, two are kept separately in the inventory.

A small silver star is also painted in the lower left corner of the rice pattern.

Click to see the description.

[Silver Crop: 20% additional selling price]

[Description: The higher the farmer level, the higher the probability of harvesting high-quality crops, your current farmer level is level 1, and the high-quality crit bonus is 10%]

[You can increase the experience of the farmer and increase the level by continuously harvesting crops]

"Hiss......" Chang Detai's eyes widened.

What a surprise!

How long has it been?

It's not even 15 minutes before and after.

At this moment, the designer directly sent himself so many surprises again and again at the beginning of the game?

Each one is unexpected!

And even greater joy is yet to come.

Chang Detai couldn't wait to throw the rice into the purchase box and ran back to the house to sleep with a cigarette.

That night, the checkout screen popped up.

[Today's total earnings: 661 gold]

Just now, I was busy and cleaned up the miscellaneous for several minutes, and it was sold for less than 40 yuan.

Now after planting the land, you can water and sleep every day, and you can directly earn more than 600 yuan.

Connection! The joy of harvest almost filled Chang Detai's chest!

From land reclamation, ploughing, sowing, irrigation, to harvesting.

This game almost perfectly replicates the real-life farming process, allowing players to get a sense of substitution while playing as a farmer.

However, the game is designed with a very simple aesthetic.

In the process of playing, players can throw away the mixture, and only look forward to and delight are left!

In less than half an hour of play, Chang Detai, who couldn't even think of how the farming game should be presented, was slightly numb in his scalp.

"Grass! That's how it feels! It's the perfect farming game in my mind! Almost uncontrollably exclaimed, Chang Detai even broke out a foul sentence in a bit of a gaffe.

It's like a phrase that someone often said when describing science fiction.

I don't know exactly what science fiction means, but when I saw it, I knew it was.

At this moment, Chang Detai's mood is the same.

I don't know how farming games are going to be presented.

But when I started playing Stardew Valley.

I knew that this game would be a rich and colorful way to imagine the barrenness of farming!

"Good boy! You're the future of our gaming industry! Chang Detai exhaled deeply, his eyes swept over the game screen on the screen, and his eyes were full of fun.

I wish you all brothers a happy National Day~

This flutter has no National Day, and this flutter will continue to change 10,000 words every day.

In addition, the monthly pass that I said last month will be added, and one more chapter can be added to the final conditions.
