Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

A week later.

It's been a full week since Genki Knight was developed.

An official website belonging to Fengyun Games has been set up, and an internal database has also been established.

Including the platform of the pass account, it has also been reported to the Game Committee.

In addition to being in charge of art, Zhao Shan also took on some other tasks in the process.

For example, statistics.

Including Han Yue, Jin Cheng, and Wang Yong, the three of them also held a special job in addition to their own work.

That's a test of the game.

In addition, Chen Xu also invited many students from the school to come to their studio to test the game.

Chen Xu also discussed this with the school.

Again, there are considerations.

Chen Xu's words naturally need a group of people to test and feedback the game.

Generally speaking, there are basically two channels for game designers to conduct feedback testing.

One of them is an offline experience store.

The other is the online open solicitation of test information.

The advantage of the former is that you can receive feedback as quickly as possible, and when you communicate with players face-to-face, you can also understand the game's flaws more clearly.

Because there are some flaws in the game, players are not so accurate.

For example, a player doesn't find a certain level fun.

This kind of unfun may be reflected in a variety of places.

It could be a problem with map design, or a problem with numerical design, or the negative impact of scene art.

Basically, well-known game designers in the industry have their own similar feedback channels, which can directly receive feedback from players.

However, for Chen Xu now, he doesn't have so much money to build an offline experience store.

Moreover, an official experience store also needs to be reported to the game committee, and at the same time achieve certain commercial results.

Not everyone can open a full-fledged experience store.

So Chen Xu chose a compromise way, that is, to discuss it with the school.

Let's see if you can prostitute the students in the school for nothing.

And the school also welcomes Chen Xu's request.

After all, compared with ordinary students, Chen Xu has also achieved certain results.

The previous "Under the Legend" can be said to have made Chen Xu famous.

And during this period, "Under the Legend" also won a Best Indie Game award that month.

It's just that because of the relationship between the development of "Genki Knight", Chen Xu has no choice to go.

Although this is his first award in this world, it is only a monthly game award.

That is, there is some audience in the circle, and for the player base, it is average.

The most popular game awards such as TGA and other well-known games with a long history.

To participate is to brush up on the presence of the industry, which is not helpful to Chen Xu now.

So instead of wasting time participating in this award, it is better to hurry up and develop "Genki Knight" as soon as possible.

And "Genki Knight" itself is a roguelike game, and its random characteristics can also be perfectly effected through the game editor.

So far, in addition to the game-related sound soundtrack, there are still some art resources that have not been included, and basically the entire framework and mode gameplay have been largely completed.

After all, "Genki Knight" is not a big production.

According to a test feedback from everyone in the experience area, Chen Xu's confidence was also more sufficient.

"Wow! What is the explosion rate of this wishing pool, Senior Chen!? I threw away almost fifteen yuan, and there is nothing left except for a sentence that the water in the pool has become dim!".

"Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, this time the box must be red!".

"Rub, why did you run into this boss!".

"Invincible, invincible! Immunity to flames, immunity to traps, and immunity to poison are all alive!".

"Haha, there are mounts in this game, look at me, this wild boar, pretty boy is not pretty boy!".

", Lao Wang, why are you hurrying? You opened the last box, and it was white! This time you opened a white one!"

"To be reasonable, it should only be white in this box!".

", someone has opened orange gear before, don't deny the fact that you're a non-chief!".

On the second floor, Chen Xu deliberately vacated a certain amount of space in the lounge, where a group of people chatted with great interest about the game content of "Genki Knight".

During this period, they also asked Chen Xu a lot of questions, but more about the content in the game.

For example, what firearms and weapons are the strongest, what classes are more powerful, and what is the explosion rate of the wishing pool in the game.

Chen Xu only laughed at this.

From the beginning, I was a little unclear about the gameplay elements of Genki Knight.

But after the experience, they soon felt the joy.

The genre that best suits niche indie games.

That's the beauty of a roguelike.
