my cthulhu game

Chapter 40 "The Curse of the Hanged King" Released

Shi Li returned home, thought about it, and instead of using a laptop, she ran the game "Curse of the Hanged King" on her desktop.

She hadn't seen the game demo in the mod, her first impression was not "this game looks awesome", but "this frame rate is really low", in other words...

good card...

This is only 1080P resolution yeah!Is it possible that my GTX1080 is so old and embarrassing?

"That's right, it was developed by that virtual reality developer," Shi Li thought, "It's understandable that they don't care about the configuration."

Shi Li adjusted the picture quality from highest to medium, and the game can finally run smoothly above 30 frames.

"Should the image quality be reduced to the lowest level to stabilize 60 frames... I don't care."

Shi Li manipulated Princess Camus on the screen (the name changed by the system to Camilla) to explore the palace, but she got stuck at the first boss, the hulking guard for 30 minutes.

This game is too difficult... Although the operation of the keyboard and mouse has been simplified to the utmost, it is still very inconvenient to operate...

In the end, Shi Li plugged in her elite handle, and finally passed this teaching level in one go.

Shi Li: "Huh..."

Whether it is the graphics, sound effects, initial level design or bizarre configuration requirements, this game has reached the level of a 3A masterpiece.But in this way, the pictures of the Four Princesses version and the Fork ONE version must be degraded.

Forget it, I am not responsible for the transplant, how to do it is someone else's business.

"...No way," Shi Li said to herself, "This is a real 3A masterpiece, it's okay to go on STEAM, but it's not good to go through the review process of independent games."

When Shi Li was working in Shanghai, she once took a stake in a friend's leather bag company and helped them release several obscure independent games.Later, the company was cancelled, but the account number was still there, and the bank account was in the name of one of her cousins.

With this account, you can directly publish the game.

"Boss Chen may not mind, but I must do my best." Shi Li encouraged herself.

She made a series of phone calls.

"Cousin? Let me tell you something..."

"Bu Chengtang Law Firm? Yes, yes, Lawyer Cheng, it's me. I need to draw up a contract. You can help me introduce someone...for game agency, right now, right now, money is not an issue..."

"Mr. Zhang? I have a big news that I want to give exclusive to Shellji.com. I wonder if you are interested..."

……

the next night.

Sister Qiu, who didn't start the broadcast all day yesterday, is about to start broadcasting.

Then she got a call from Shili.

"Qiu Xiaodie?" Shi Li bluffed.

"How do you know about my mobile phone?" Sister Qiu still didn't like Shi Li very much.

"Xiaobai told me," Shi Li said, "It's fine, can you start the broadcast now?"

"Why?" Sister Qiu asked angrily.

"The game "Curse of the Hanged King" has been released on the STEAM platform..."

"I'm going to hang up."

"Don't hang up!" Shi Li continued, "Although I also contacted Shellji.com to report, it will take some time for the website to publicize after all. You can broadcast it live and spread it..."

"Goodbye." Sister Qiu hung up the phone.

I will never touch that damn game again!
Sister Qiu thought for a while, pointed the camera at the keyboard, and then opened the live broadcast room of Doulong TV.

It wasn't on the air yesterday, so I used Weibo as an excuse to be uncomfortable, so I just sang casually today, fooling the fans and knocking them down, Sister Qiu thought.

As soon as the live broadcast started, Ms. Qiu was immediately overwhelmed by the barrage familiar to fans.

"Sister Qiu is in good health? Your body is the most important thing"

"No news all day today, I'm so worried"

"Why don't you talk, turn off the mic for live broadcast, sing a song and listen to it, Miss Qiu"

"Just now, didn't you look at the camera and face the keyboard? I must be playing games today"

"Say something, Miss Qiu, don't be scary."

……

Miss Qiu took a deep breath.

【Playing games today】

She typed five large characters at the top of the live broadcast room.

"666"

"Sister Qiu is so silent today."

“The BGM sound is a bit loud, I can’t hear the words”

"Where's the BGM?"

"Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid?"

Sister Qiu turned on the mic and still didn't speak, but quietly opened STEAM, entered the store, entered the hanged king's curse, and searched.Shili said that the game has been released...

Sister Qiu did not send a broadcast announcement in the group, but the administrator who saw her broadcast @ all the members. At this time, more and more fans gathered in the live broadcast room.

Everyone looked at the store page of "Curse of the Hanged King".

“Don’t you want to eat chicken?”

"Didn't see you buy the game?"

"Why should I watch live streaming and buy games?"

"666666"

"The Hanged King's Curse? Never heard of it?"

"Look at the time, it was just released today"

"Advertising"

"Advertisement is also okay, sister Qiu, adjust the camera."

“The poster of this game is very nice”

Sister Qiu scrolled down the page, and there were only three comments.

Asdfzxvc: After playing for a while, I feel good, please support me, the game has a lot of content (praise)

Small palms: I can't get through the first boss, I don't know what the production team thinks (bad review)
Gray and White Wolf: Stuck as a dog, unable to play, the spicy chicken game is gone (bad review)
There was a smile on the corner of sister Qiu's mouth.The smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, this ghost game is finally exhausted...

But the people in the live broadcast room discussed it more enthusiastically.

"It doesn't look like a good game"

"Small company's indie game, can afford to hire sister Qiu to advertise?"

"Really costing money"

"Blood Lost"

"The ratings are still low, so I can't take it seriously. I have a hunch that this is a real masterpiece."

"Sister Qiu, why don't you speak?"

"Is it the fake Qiu sister? Has the account been hacked in the live broadcast room?"

"Sister Qiu, please say something."

Finally, sister Qiu couldn't keep silent.

"This game is from my friend's company," she tapped the computer table three times with her knuckles, "I'll help them promote it today. Just play for a while, play for a while."

Her tone is very relaxed, but her heart is full of tears...

Why can't I control my hand!

I must be crazy, I must be cursed by this damn game!
The game is not expensive, only 38 yuan.Sister Qiu was [-]% sure that the price was written by Chen Qiang, who didn't understand stand-alone games, with his eyes closed.

"I actually watched people live broadcast and bought games"

"38 yuan is quite cheap, I will buy one too"

"Is it okay to download now?"

"Even 11 Gs, very kind"

"11 G's are not big"

"What do you want for an indie game worth 38 yuan?"

"The optimization is so bad that it didn't run away"

"Hey, I've already placed an order, and it's expected to be finished sooner than sister Qiu, I'll go explore the way first"

"Go Warrior"

"My little water pipe, wait for sister Qiu, I will buy it if it is fun"

"What kind of Western background do domestic games need?"

"It is forbidden to transfer into..."

The crowd got farther and farther away.Sister Qiu couldn't take it anymore.

She cleared her throat: "Use the time of playing games, let's talk about the future of the video game industry."

"???"

"????"

All the bullet screens were stunned.

Is there something wrong with Miss Qiu today?
"Now that the wireless network is more and more developed, you may think that cloud games will be the development direction of the game industry in the future, but it is not."

"While European and American manufacturers are still struggling to hype how to use cloud servers to remotely run 3A game masterpieces on local platforms, that is, the concept of 'cloud games', in fact, domestic pioneers have gone one step further."

Barrage:

"???"

"It's confirmed, fake sister Qiu"

"How much does it cost to advertise?"

"I think it's a bit strange... don't you think sister Qiu's tone is very serious..."

Miss Qiu smiled slightly.

"For reasons of confidentiality, I cannot disclose the name of that company. But I can tell you that the top game technology beyond everyone's imagination will be available soon! And they are also very strong in traditional game production, which is me "The Curse of the Hanged King" that I want to show you today! There are still 15 minutes to finish, please wait patiently for a while..."
