In order to ascend, I had no choice but to play games

At first glance, you can tell that the newcomer is a person who doesn't like to talk.

The young man was rather handsome, but he was thin, and his clothes were like a kite. He would never die if he jumped from the fifth floor, and he might even be able to play a cobra maneuver.

Taking the other party's notebook, Fang Cheng read it for a while, and then felt something was wrong.

There is nothing wrong with what the other party said, but it is different from what I think.

For example, to live to death, Fangcheng hopes to see how the opponent can find out why the "horror" element in the game is insufficient, but the opponent is asking to strengthen the fluency of the line.

The same is true for "The Second Son of the Forest". The other party did not explain why it failed, but only explained various shortcomings, which is a bit different from the effect Fang Cheng wanted.

But no matter what, Fang Cheng still saw one thing from the other party's notes, and that was fanaticism.

The other party is obviously a player who is passionate about the game. It will be more helpful for him to study the game if he has such a person by his side.

So, he nodded to the newcomer, and then asked, "What's your name?"

"Xiao Du, but you can call me Xiaodouzi." Xiao Du said.

Afterwards, he summoned up his courage and said in a low voice: "Although so many opinions have been put forward, "Living to Death" is my favorite game. I like all the details in it very much, especially after the death of a civilization, I desperately think about it." I really like the obsession to leave something in the universe. So I want to ask, how did you come up with those?"

"I don't know, it grows by itself."

Fang Cheng told the truth, but Xiao Du became even more excited.

He looked at Fang Cheng, his eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly: "I see, what you mean is that the game needs to listen to the voice from the heart, and not pursue too rigid a meaning?"

"I feel like you're thinking too much. Let's not talk about that. Has the contract been signed? Has the salary been negotiated?"

Although Xiao Du has repeatedly stated that he doesn't need it, he still has the wages he saved before. And the video income has been good recently, and there will be no problem for a while.

But Fang Cheng has already written the concept of "no wage arrears" into his heart, and even a good horse is fed with good grass, so he decisively gave the other party 12,000 for a month.

After giving Xiao Du a small entry gift, Fang Cheng took out the USB flash drive and said to Xiao Du, "This is a game I developed recently, and I'm going to call it a dungeon. Can you test it for me?"

Xiao Du stood up quickly, said "I'm sorry", and immediately rushed to the toilet on the floor. When he came back, his hands were wet.

"I've washed my hands three times and I'm ready to go."

"..."

Fang Cheng didn't speak, Xu Qingling patted him on the shoulder, and said triumphantly: "You're a talent, this little Douzi is so fun, hurry up and praise me."

"……why?"

"Help you recruit such a fun employee."

"Oh, thank you."

This time, Fangcheng spent a lot of time building the world, modifying props, and fully displaying what he has learned all his life, which also made the volume of the game reach an unprecedented height.

10MB.

In this era of games that cost several GB at every turn, this size is really a breath of fresh air, but the calculation method of Xianshu is so simple, rude and unreasonable. In order not to make this look too strange, Fangcheng also added a lot of extra things, but they are still a little smaller.

Xiaodouzi thought for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Boss, are you planning to develop a mobile terminal? Data interoperability between computers and mobile phones is also a good development direction. Your optimization is really good."

"I didn't think that far ahead."

"You should think about it. Monopoly is the way to death. Many games say that it is monopoly, but it is actually an archway. Well, I'm going to come in."

Entering the game, picking up the handle, the expression on Xiaodouzi's face disappeared instantly, only the screen reflection on his glasses was constantly beating.

From the beginning of playing the game, he didn't say a word, but kept manipulating the image on the screen and began to explore the dungeon.

In this game, the main gameplay of the player is to constantly destroy the monsters on the road, obtain attribute improvements and better equipment, improve their own strength, and then explore the dungeons layer by layer.

Because the theme of the game is love, Fangcheng doesn't want to spend too much time on attribute improvement, so there is only a basic mathematical model.

This time, he took a bird's-eye view so that the player can see the surrounding situation.

From holding the handle, the handle seems to have grown in the hands of Xiaodouzi, and has never been put down.

And unlike his performance in the video as a speedrunner, Xiaodouzi's current state of playing games can only be described as cautious.

In the first dungeon, Xiaodouzi played for nearly eight hours, and he was so absorbed that he didn't even go to the toilet once.

He didn't care about the takeaway that Xu Qingling bought, but just stared at the screen.

It wasn't until the end of the first dungeon, all the details were searched, and the first princess in ghost form was rescued, that he put down the handle and took off his glasses, and tears welled up in his eyes at this moment.

"This game is really good, I am very moved."

"Really?" Fang Cheng asked expectantly, "Where is the fun?"

"The monster's model and mechanism, all kinds of realistic feedback to reality, the equipment system with strong randomness, and the unparalleled sense of mowing the grass after the equipment is formed. I dare say, this is the best game I have played this year. Good meat pigeon mowing game."

Fang Cheng was quite happy to hear it in the first half, but something went wrong in the second half.

Pointing to the image of the player still embracing Princess Mononoke on the screen, Fang Cheng couldn't help asking: "Why do you think I arranged for this princess?"

Xiaodouzi's eyes lit up, and he said eloquently: "The existence of the princess is a kind of positive feedback after clearing the level, and the characteristics of the princess itself will even change the various mechanisms of the game. The only fly in the ointment at present is that it does not bring meat pigeons to the players. The most important resource scarcity in genre games. But it’s okay, I’ll adjust it.”

Interrupting the other party, Fang Cheng asked, "What position are you applying for?"

"Numerical planning! I am a graduate student in the Department of Mathematics of Peking University. Mathematics is as natural as breathing to me. I will definitely adjust the numerical values ​​of the boss game to the best. Trust me."

"But, what I want to do is love games."

Xiaodouzi looked at Fang Cheng and sighed subtly.

And Xu Qingling took the opportunity to take Fang Cheng's hand and came to the side, pointed to the Q\u0026A on the screen and said: "Boss, look at this question."

Fang Cheng looked over, and then found out that it was "How to evaluate Fang Cheng's poor game classification method".

There are not many answers below, but everyone said that Fangcheng's game classification can only be described as tragedy.

Resisting the urge to curse everyone with a straw man, Fang Cheng had no choice but to sit aside and start thinking about why he failed this time.

Love games are so difficult to do.
