Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

Chapter 42



Inside Tenghua's studio.

With the launch of "City of Legends", Tenghua game platform also has an official game platform.

Youzifang has been keeping an eye on the growth of its data.

Under the recommendation of Tenghua channel, the game began to climb continuously after it was launched.

The city of legends itself is a buyout game, priced at 30 yuan.

It's a small-cost production.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, a copy of data was sent to the wanderer's computer.

The one-hour sales volume was 2,516, of which Tenghua's platform channel occupied the mainstream, with a total of 31 refunds.

After seeing this data, You Zifang couldn't help but smile.

The official platform requires players to experience it for two hours before it can be evaluated.

However, Tenghua's channel platform does not have this limitation, as long as you buy the game and have it in the inventory, you can evaluate it.

The positive rating was 79%, and more than 200 people rated it.

If it's a simple game, then it should actually be considered a bit of a low figure.

But for "City of Legends", it's actually okay.

Because most of the people who give low ratings are players who are biased against City of Legends.

Even if they buy a game, they won't download it, just to get a rating.

Youzifang had already expected this, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, anyway, there should still be sales.

Compared with "Under the Legend", which has now reached 8 million people, and the praise rate is still maintained at 98%, it is naturally incomparable.

But You Zifang didn't think of anything more than "Under the Legend", and the sales were enough.

According to the sales volume of 2516 in the first hour, it should not be difficult for the sales of the day to exceed 20,000.

Considering that the sales of general game releases are concentrated in the previous week, the monthly sales of "City of Legends" should be around 400,000.

Glancing at the work group, there was already a group of people in Aithe.

"The results of the old game "City of Legends" are not bad, and there should be no pressure on the revenue to exceed 10 million. "

"This is your third game with sales revenue exceeding 10 million, right? I feel like you can apply for a higher project budget from the company. "

"Yes, the game I'm in charge of will be launched next month, and I hope to have a good win. "

Looking at the conversation in the work group, You Zifang also showed a smile, and then made a voice in the work group.

"It's okay, as for higher-level projects, let's see if they can pass the review. "

A few people were chatting, and suddenly someone sent a message.

"By the way, Lao You, you seem to have competition with that Chen Xu, this is his download data, and he chose the free model, but even if it is free, the number of downloads is less than 30,000. "

Seeing this news, You Zifang couldn't help but straighten up and hurriedly clicked in.

has been paying attention to the situation of "City of Legends", but he didn't pay much attention to the news of "Genki Knight" on Chen Xu's side.

After seeing the news, You Zifang was stunned for a moment.

If the game "Under the Legend" is free, it is not surprising, after all, Chen Xu was not a game designer at that time.

Absorb traffic for free and then get authentication, which is a regular operation.

But this second game adopts a free-to-play and in-app purchase model?

"Think it's a sign of a game's success if it's free, right?"

was stunned for a moment, but then You Zifang couldn't help but snort softly in his heart.

In his opinion, why did Chen Xu make this game free.

It's just that he thinks he really wants to fight for sales, but he can't fight for Tenghua channels.

So I thought of finding another way to create a sign of success with a free threshold plus in-app purchase model.

But despite thinking so, Youzifang is still ready to try it out.

Strategically despising the enemy and tactically valuing the enemy, this is still clear to the wandering side.

........................

On the other hand, in the game of Fengyun.

"You Zifang has already posted an official blog, and "City of Legends" has sold more than 2,000 in one hour. "

In the office, Zhao Shan and several people reported the latest news to Chen Xu.

Han Yue has several well-known game forum communities in China, and they refresh it every few seconds.

Wang Yong and Jin Cheng were staring at a detailed data in the background.

At this time, several people were a little apprehensive.

Although Chen Xu didn't say it, in fact, they were also holding their breath in their hearts.

Especially during this period, Zhao Shan, who also participated in the detailed development of the game, wanted to be able to beat Tenghua hard.

But now, especially with the one-hour results of "City of Legends" on Tenghua's side.

It's all about making everyone a little apprehensive.

After all, City of Legends is a buyout game, while Genki Knight is a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.

So it's not uncommon for the number of downloads to surpass Youzifang in an hour.

It can be seen from the list of new game bestsellers, which summarizes revenue data.

"City of Legends" has been airborne to the first position, while "Genki Knight" does not appear in the list at all.

Because this list only summarizes the top 30 games that have been online for no more than 2 months, and it is a statistic for the whole platform.

The sales of games in the three major channels, including Tenghua, will also be counted, so "City of Legends" can be airborne to the first position

Compared with Zhao Shan and Han Yue's anxiety, Chen Xu was much calmer.

The current data situation is not much different from what he expected.

You must know that although "City of Legends" is not a large-scale game on Tenghua's side, it also occupies some promotion ratio.

Especially the cover promotion of the homepage of the channel, this can be regarded as a first-level recommendation, even if it is only for one day.

Coupled with the huge volume of Tenghua itself, this has long been expected by Chen Xu.

"Let the bullets fly a little longer. "

Looking at the four people with apprehensive expressions, Chen Xu smiled and stood up and stretched, and then took out a bottle of soda from the freezer next to him.
