Otherworldly Architect

Naturally, the Bluestar platform will not be launched so soon, and it still needs a certain period of research and development and operation.

The first task before the research and development is completed is to let players understand the role of the Blue Star account.

The current Blue Star account is basically only used to log in to Blue Star's games, official website and forums.

Each account in Bluestar will record every operation from the beginning, including confidential information, online status, game purchase and download records, violation records, forum speeches and so on.

This is also the traditional practice of every game company, which makes players feel very convenient.

As a platform, the Blue Star account must at least have functions such as storing currency, purchasing other games, download and update management, and connecting to payment channels.

Of course, there needs to be a large number of games on the platform, as well as some first-time games.

It is also necessary to give fair and reasonable recommendations and traffic to these games on a regular basis, which requires itself to have outstanding traffic diversion capabilities.

There are so many game platforms in the world, but Atlas and IPP companies are so big, and they dare to ask for more than 50% of the platform handling fee, there is a reason.

The designers of Bluestar have made many games, but they have never made a platform, and they all feel very fresh for a while.

What does it take to design a platform?

The game planners gathered around laughing and making noise:

"We may have to introduce a batch of games, and we need to have professional reviews. By the way, we can also put the reviews of the League One, as well as player ratings-three sets of reviews will come at once, and they look very professional."

"Finally it's our turn to recommend, I want to hug my favorite game and hold it high, hehe."

"Isn't the most important function of the platform discounts!!"

"Ah, yes! We still have to consider a discount!"

"All the previous games can be put in, and the discount rate can be determined according to the chronological order. I reckon that there is no problem to directly use the Blue Star Launcher."

The designers are still discussing about the "launcher". Over there, it is clearly stated that the plan for the launcher has been released.

This thing doesn't cost much, and Blue Star's top programmers only need a few days to finish it.

That is to say, when each player logs in to the Blue Star account, they will automatically enter a custom virtual space.

Coincidentally, a new game code-named "Hunting" is still under development.

The studio has invited a group of solid players and fans to test some initial content, and now it’s time for them to come over and help test the “Blue Star Launcher”.

At the beginning, when the players heard that they were going to test this thing, they all found it very relaxing and fun.

"The launcher also needs to be tested? Is it to see if it looks good?"

"Blue Star's father is really serious. I didn't know that every game needs at least seven or eight rounds of testing, tsk tsk."

"So the launcher is going to be updated, I'm actually quite reluctant to part with the blue sky and white clouds interface..."

The previous Bluestar Launcher was a simple page without functionality, it just guided players into any game.

But the current Bluestar launcher can even be used to log in with a VR device.

After the player chooses to start it, he comes to a virtual space in an instant——

The AI ​​steward prompted with a soft female voice: "Welcome home, player 'Test No. 021'."

Then what was displayed in front of him was a three-dimensional, dynamic blue sky and white clouds, just like a brand new virtual game.

And in the middle of the blue sky and white clouds, there is a simple wooden house.

The AI ​​steward reminds the player that he can switch the appearance of his hut and the entire dynamic background at any time. There are currently three initial images, which are:

The current prairie wooden houses, cloud roof houses, and sea view villas.

The prairie wooden house is the simplest and full of the style of nature. At first glance, it feels like the sky and the land are vast, which makes people feel vast.

Yunding House is a "house" flying on the clouds. In fact, its appearance is more similar to a classical big ship flying in the sea of ​​clouds. The oars seem to stir the clouds.

The sea view villa is a house built on the seabed at a depth of 100 meters. You can go up and down the seabed through the sightseeing elevator. One wall of the house is completely transparent alloy glass, so you can have a glimpse of the seabed scenery.

In the initial scene, each room has already placed the corresponding game.

The AI ​​butler guides the players step by step, allowing them to learn to use various small props to log in to different games.

By the way, I taught them to buy a new game called "hunting", and watch the new game turn into a compound bow hanging on the wall, and they can touch this bow at any time to open that new game.

Hmm...Of course, it can't be opened at the moment, and the purchase process is just a mock-up.

Of course, if the player prefers a more simple and crude way, there is also a main control panel, which can directly select the game they want to enter, without having to perform such "realistic" operations.

On the main control panel, you can also choose to turn on the "build" and "layout" modes, which can modify the starter's house terrain and built-in furniture respectively.

Take the sea view villa as an example, players can buy a lighting spree, which currently only costs 6.66 yuan, or just use 66 mall points.

Some test players directly turned the "Blue Star Launcher" into a "house building simulator" as soon as they came, and buried thousands of lights in the sea view outside the house.

As long as you turn on the main switch, you can see the continuous lights on the bottom of the sea, like sparks on the mountains at night, illuminating a deep blue water, which is as beautiful as a dream.

When it comes to mall points, Blue Star is really conscientious.

Whenever a player uses the Blue Star account for any form of cancellation, he can get mall points at a ratio of 1:10, and the mall points can be directly exchanged for most of the commodities.

Players: What's the difference between this and buy one get one free! ! !

How could Blue Star players not have bought Blue Star games in their pockets, and as long as they have bought them, they can directly see thousands or even tens of thousands of points lying there quietly when they open the page.

Points can even be directly used to book Bluestar's next game, and 340 points can be directly regarded as a deposit of 34 yuan!

And as long as the new game is pre-ordered, a huge shopping mall gift bag will be sent immediately.

Open the gift package and look, inside is the background and furniture of the new game linkage——

Directly unlocked the fourth background appearance of the Blue Star Launcher: a tree house in the rainforest. In this background, animals such as small squirrels from different worlds will randomly appear.

Unlocked a set of furniture made of jungle wood, a mosquito net, and a small pug dog that can be placed at home as a pet.

Unlocks the profile picture of the player account.

I gave away an appearance ornament in "League of Legends" and "Xia Ke Xing" - the hunter's longbow.

And the hunter longbow, which is the "body" of the game, is already hanging in the house.

That's about all the content that Blue Star Launcher has completed so far.

At this time, Blue Star's art team was still working overtime, because they had another wonderful inspiration!

They also want to directly make a space station-themed background hut, and they are still urging the programmers to give players more permission to build.

In the future, players may be able to directly build houses and backgrounds without having to choose from a fixed theme.

Just like in "My World", arbitrarily decide the structure, material, appearance, color, etc. of the house, and even change the terrain outside the house.

Designers, artists, and programmers are all eagerly waiting for the test feedback given by the first batch of players.

Unexpectedly, in their feedback report, apart from sincere rainbow farts and suggestions, most of the players are still howling:

[Don't you want to have dinner again! ! ! 】

[Daily task: Worried that Lan Xing's father will starve himself to death (1/1)]

[Buy one get one free, and give a big gift bag for nothing, I am really convinced-no wonder, I am so angry! ! 】

【Always worried that Blue Star won't be able to make money, what should I do quq】

[? ? ? ? ?How on earth do you guys make money? ? ? 】

Designers are also full of question marks: "???"

Our players seem to have little trust in our profitability.

And the Blue Star Launcher doesn't make any money, isn't it normal?

Whose launcher can still make a lot of money? !

Our points and mall system, in fact, just want to pave the way for the launcher to transform into a Blue Star platform...

In the Blue Star Launcher, outside the hut, there is also a "farming system", which is under intense development.

After hearing about the embarrassment of the starter test, the designers of the farming system couldn't help holding a small meeting with coffee.

Designers are cruel:

"How about...we price the fertilizer more expensive?"

"Then... 6 cents a bag!"

"My God, can players accept such an outrageous price? After all, one bag can only be used on one field, and it's just a 10% increase in product."

"(whispering) Well, well, that's still 3 cents a bag."

Then, the players who came to test the next day, after hearing that there was another farming system, they all geared up.

"What??? Free watering? A plow and a harvesting machine for the opening remarks?"

"(Screaming) Fertilizer only costs 3 cents a bag!!! Don't want to live!!!"

They looked at the 8868 yuan luxury gift package (only one resource) offered by Tulong Baodao Studio next door, and then looked at the shopping mall on Blue Star's side.

Well, the most expensive product is the 68 yuan annual membership, which allows you to use all startup scenarios for free.

Moreover, it can also be redeemed with points.

On the second day of the test, the players were heartbroken:

【hurry up! ! !Go to the next door to learn about the Dragon Slaying Sword! ! !Gouging the walls to steal light! ! !Your mall is on a cliff, I protest! ! ! 】

[You can also think of 3 cents of fertilizer?Give me the damn ones for 30 yuan a bag!Right now! 】

[It's only more than 400 yuan to buy a short mall? ?I bought the Blue Star Game Collector's Edition until now, and I have enough points. 】

【……well. (Hate iron but not steel.jpg)]
