i really just want to play games

Chapter 6 World Editor

"Smart Assistant."

With a thought of Chen Tiancai, a light blue light group appeared in the upper right of his field of vision.

At the same time, the originally flat blue light screen began to tilt, giving it a three-dimensional feel.

"Hello, how can I help you?" The light blue light group flickered a few times, and the clear and clear child's voice sounded, very well-behaved.

"What can the world editor do?" Chen Tiancai asked immediately.

The light cluster continued to shine for a while, as if thinking, and then replied:

"I can help you with the game."

These words exploded in Chen Tiancai's heart like a spring thunder.

World Editor…

World Editor!
As the name suggests, it is a tool that can edit the world, and isn't every game like a brand new world for players?

After Chen Tiancai figured this out, he almost jumped out of bed.

However, he still held back his excitement and confirmed:

"Is it similar to a game engine?"

"Yes, and more intelligently, you can make games like building blocks. At the same time, it supports manual operation, as well as voice or agent operation."

"What about the network interaction method? How does it interact with the real network? You must know that a lot of data needs to be transferred to each other." Chen Tiancai thought of a blind spot and asked immediately, and this is also the most important question.

No matter how the world editor makes games, art and music materials do not appear out of thin air, and Chen Tiancai is not good at these two aspects.

Besides, even if you finish the game, you have to upload it to the real network, otherwise how can you sell it to make money...

Pooh!share happiness.

"The world editor can interact with the real network in a standards-compliant way so it doesn't mess with the network around you."

"Of course, this will be slower." Guangtuan added.

"Very satisfied."

Of course Chen Tiancai was satisfied. His original plan was to start hacking the code and make his own games. This road will not take a year, and there will be no splashes.

But the world editor can obviously solve the big problem of program code. For art and music, he can go to the game developer forum to find an OEM, and it will be the same to check more.

In this case, Chen Tiancai's work is the same as the supervision of a large studio.

If other types of work in the game development process are called soldiers, then supervision is like a general.

Supervisors generally do not participate in specific development work, but provide the development direction of the game and guidance during the development process. After the final game is finished, they are also responsible for the final modification direction, and even publicity and operations.

And many supervisors are the writers of the game text, or the supervisor is the brain of the development team.

However, this kind of position only appears in Japan, where the game industry is relatively developed. Another name for supervisors is also called - star producer.

Hideo Kojima, Hidetaka Miyazaki, Eiji Aonuma, etc. are star producers.

Not only did they create a great series, but the works they produced are monuments left in the history of games.

But making games is risky, and sometimes the company's profit-seeking can easily conflict with supervision.

Hideo Kojima eventually left due to conflicts with Konami. The Metal Gear Solid series he created did not belong to him, so he could only produce the controversial "Death Stranding".

Although Miyazaki Hidetaka has nothing serious, he is always sliding up and down the altar, which is very tiring to think about.

What is it like for a child to get a toy that he has liked for a long time?
How does a teenager feel when he just gets together with the girl he likes?
Probably similar to the current Chen Tiancai.

"Blue sky!"

"Baiyun!"

"Beach!"

"tide!"

……

Chen Tiancai excitedly tried to input some commands, and then three-dimensional images of these things began to appear on the world editor, but the images of these things were a bit rigid, as if they were made up of bricks.

"A huge lake with a big fish moving in and out of the water."

This more complicated command did not bother the world editor, and everything that appeared on the blue light curtain acted according to Chen Tiancai's command.

It was at this point in the experiment that Chen Tiancai felt a little sleepy. Looking at the time, it was already [-]:[-] in the middle of the night.

The great fatigue made him yawn a few times, and soon fell asleep.

After being woken up by the alarm clock the next morning, Chen Tiancai found that he was quite energetic and had no sequelae of cultivating immortals at all.

Sitting at the dining table, Chen Tiancai gnawed on buns and drank porridge, and began to think about whether he should quit his job and concentrate on playing games.

The world editor is really easy to use. After experimenting last night, Chen Tiancai felt that it is much more advanced than the game engine. At least there is no gap of program code. It is completely like a canvas, allowing him to create.

Chen Tiancai is very familiar with the history of game development.

Early games were also the result of putting together lines of code. In the 3D era, after technological innovation, a framework like a game engine was created, which can greatly reduce the time of making games.

After all, it is easy to type a few mb of code, but a few gigabytes of code is not the work that should be done in the era of efficiency.

Even so, game engines require a lot of time to learn.

Many major international companies regard their own game engines as the core of industry competition and will not release public versions for others to use.

Thinking of this, Chen Tiancai felt that Company E was a bit good, and had been making its own virtual engine available to the public, and even vigorously promoted it in its own mall.

However, this kind of behavior must be for profit, but Chen Tiancai felt that it was already very remarkable to be able to make this step.

At the very least, the boom in stand-alone game development that has taken place in China over the past two years is entirely inseparable from the Unreal Engine.

"What are you thinking about?" Father Chen, who was sitting opposite, asked when he saw his son's lost look.

"Ah! It's nothing." Chen Tiancai came back to his senses and took a sip of porridge.

Father Chen put down his chopsticks, glanced at his son's absent-minded look, and said, "Is it a game business? You have been in the game company for half a year, what experience have you learned?"

Chen Tiancai swallowed the steamed stuffed bun in his mouth, and replied: "I have learned a lot, and I am going to start doing it. Just now I was thinking whether I should quit my job and concentrate on making games."

At this time, Chen's mother joined the dinner table with a bowl, just in time to hear that Chen Tiancai wanted to resign, and said sullenly: "Why did you want you to go to the game company, it sounds like you are not doing a proper job. Sure enough! I don't want to work now, play 20 years is not enough, how much time do you want to waste to get in?"

"Don't interrupt." Father Chen looked dignified at home, and stopped his wife's complaints.

Chen Tiancai smiled slightly when he heard that, his mother has always been like this, in fact, if she persisted, she would probably let go, so she didn't care about her nagging at all.

Father Chen's face straightened, he looked at his son and asked seriously: "Do you really want to play games?"

"Yes!" Chen Tiancai nodded, his gaze was firm.
