MTL - Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall?-Chapter 1 Who would play such a ghost game!
Chapter 1 Who would play this kind of ghost game!
"...So, this is your interview piece? Cat Leo?"
Binjiang Science and Technology Building 22nd Floor, Golden Wind Game Technology Co., Ltd., conference room.
As the interviewer recruited by the game director this time, Big Secret Chu Qingzhou looked at the game project in his hand, and at the young man wearing a Mickey hoodie in front of him.
His tone was full of uncertainty.
She really couldn't imagine that this **** could be called "game planning"!
Just the game concept map on the homepage is outrageous—
The A4 paper is spread horizontally, and the obstacle design exactly like Mario's appears on the paper.
However, the protagonist has changed from a bearded plumber to an upright walking... cat with a mean expression?
The grass, water pipes, and even clouds in the picture are all marked with the word "dangerous".
The vector arrows are dazzling, as if every step, there are a hundred traps waiting for this cheap cat to take the bait.
In the scribbled style of painting, a sense of ridicule came from the inside out.
Is this **** something designed by carbon-based creatures?
Chu Qingzhou glanced at the picture again, with a complicated expression on his face.
Who the **** would play this kind of ghost game! !
"Let me confirm again, Mr. Gu Sheng,"
Taking a deep breath, Chu Qingzhou closed the project, frowned and asked:
"Are you sure this is the concept map of the game screen?"
"Okay, that's how it plays..."
As he spoke, the big boy sitting opposite showed an awkward and polite smile:
"Abstract."
…
His name is Gu Sheng, a traverser with his own system.
Three years ago, because of an accident, he traveled to this parallel world and became a freshman majoring in game design at Binjiang University.
In this world, the level of electronic technology is slightly higher than that of the previous life, but the level of gaming is very low.
The types of games are limited, the gameplay is monotonous and rigid, and the country is full of money, and there are countless assembly-line games.
And Gu Sheng's system seems to be here to conquer this blue ocean—
【Game Treasure System】
This is a point exchange system, which stores the source code structure of all the games in Gu Sheng's previous life.
Once opened, those works that can be called the ninth art will be seen again and continue to shine in this world.
but.
To open the system, you need to complete two preconditions—
【Condition 1: Before the system is turned on, the host is prohibited from publishing any games】
【Condition 2: The host must successfully apply for a director or above position of a game company during the senior year internship】
【Note: Both conditions must be met at the same time before the system can be officially opened, otherwise it will self-destruct】
The first condition is nothing, it can be easily achieved.
The key is the second condition!
During the "internship period", apply to be a "director" of a game company?
This difficulty is hell!
What is the level of director?
That's Hidetaka Miyazaki! It's Sid Meier! It's G fat! It's Shigeru Miyamoto!
You let me, a student, apply for a job as a game director? !
Unless the boss wants to shut down the company!
Otherwise this is simply impossible!
Let’s not talk about him, even if Hideo Kojima comes, it’s impossible to reach the sky in one step and become a game director before graduation!
But helpless, the system conditions are like this, if it cannot be turned on during the one-year internship, the system will automatically disappear.
So, Gu Sheng could only try to hit his luck.
And just yesterday!
His 100th resume finally ushered in a reply.
A company called [Golden Wind Game] responded to his job application and asked him to apply for the job today.
…
but…
It seems that the result of the interview is not ideal.
Gu Sheng looked at the ashen face of the interviewer, and sighed inwardly.
He is a poor student in this world. Even though he had been an intern at FromSoftware in his previous life, he worked in Yubi Chuanyu Studio after returning to China as an assistant to the chief project planner. He has rich experience in game production.
But it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice.
Plus the time for job notification is tight.
In desperation, he had no choice but to hastily produced this "Cat Leo" as an interview work.
"Though...it's a bit more scribbled,"
Seeing that the interviewer was speechless, Gu Sheng decided to show respect a little:
"But its gameplay is absolutely fine,"
"A large number of traps will constantly stimulate the player. Every time a level is passed, it will be a dopamine secretion moment for the player!"
You fart.
Chu Qingzhou rolled his eyes in his heart.
Trust you I am the one.
Are all the players shaking M, life is going so smoothly, do you have to play with a hot-eyed ghost like you? ? ?
Chu Qingzhou sighed, not wanting to waste any more time on a stupid designer, and gave Gu Sheng a sorry smile:
"I'm sorry Mr. Gu, your er... work really doesn't meet the minimum standards of the game industry,"
"so-"
The voice has not yet fallen!
Listening to the side, a crisp and sweet voice sounded:
"So I think you have great potential!"
As soon as this remark comes out!
Gu Sheng and Chu Qingzhou were startled and turned their heads to look.
I saw beside Chu Qingzhou, above the chief in the center of the entire conference room, a young girl was sitting upright.
The girl is about the same age as Gu Sheng, about 22 or 3 years old, with a small round face and big eyes, and a ball head of the same style as Little Nezha. She looks sweet and cute.
Oh yes, I almost forgot about her.
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.
Although it is outrageous, this girl is the president of this company, the real decision executor.
Little Nezha has been silent just now, and Gu Sheng almost regards her as a mascot.
But who would have expected that when he opened his mouth now, his words would be astonishing.
Chu Qingzhou was obviously a little confused.
Little Ancestor, where do you see that this grandson has potential?
Is that mean smiling cat?
Or the water pipe that can be used as a rocket?
Or the brainless mushroom that will be poisoned to death if you eat it?
No matter from which angle you look at this broken game, it doesn't look like a plan that a normal designer can make, does it?
As long as this "Cat Leo" is on the market, let alone a copy!
It can sell half a copy, I would kneel down and give this kid three!
However!
Facing the big secret Chu Qingzhou's astonished gaze, but seeing that the little Nezha was not in a hurry, he smiled slightly and looked at Gu Sheng:
"Mr. Gu, you just said...you have no work experience, right?"
"without."
Gu Sheng nodded.
If the previous life is not counted, he does have no work experience.
"No recent plans?"
"without."
"Aren't you planning a project?"
"also not."
"Very good! The golden wind will be the place where you can show your ambitions and realize your dreams!"
As he spoke, he saw little Nezha standing up straight away, and stretching out his hand towards Gu Sheng:
"Welcome to Golden Wind, Director Gu!"
What the hell? no? wait? ? ?
Seeing that the two of them were about to hold hands together, Chu Qingzhou felt that his CPU was going to burn!
Which one is this special meow coming from?
The boss is crazy?
Why do you still prefer to go to Tiger Mountain?
However, Chu Qingzhou stopped him slowly, and it was still a step too late.
Ding!
As Gu Sheng took hold of little Nezha's hand, a crisp sound resounded in his mind instantly—
【Congratulations, you have been successfully hired as a director, and the game treasure house system has officially opened! 】
【From now on, the system will automatically collect the player's emotional value and use it to exchange for games. The higher the sales of the game, the faster the emotional value will be accumulated! ! 】
That's...successful?
Gu Sheng wanted to laugh a little.
Happiness is too nonsensical.
This little Nezha is really a big injustice... No, a nobleman!
However, what he didn't know was.
Just as his system was activated!
In the mind of little Nezha, a notification tone also sounded——
【Ding! Congratulations, you have successfully bound the principal, and the investment rebate system has officially opened! 】
【From now on, once the manager’s project suffers losses, the system will compensate the host with ten times the rebate! ! 】
