Game production: I really have landed

Chapter 48 "Ori and Me"

On January [-]th, in this special season approaching the end of the new year, the official account of "Chuxin Game Studio", which has been immersed for a long time, released the first video of this account after it was created.

"Ori and Me"

President Luo posted a video?Just released?
What a coincidence.

A feeling of excitement suddenly rose in Mo Yun's heart.

Even though he only spent less than a day with Mr. Luo, Mo Yun admired the attitude of a truly outstanding game producer.

He couldn't wait to click on the video.

Spacious, bright, and comfortable, each workstation occupies an area large enough for employees to put down a small bed. The distance between workstations is at least one meter, and there are even green plants dotted around.

The most high-end dual-screen computer configuration, the high-end ergonomic chair, the pink lumbar pillow that makes a girl's heart burst...

At first glance, it seems that the dream office area that can only be seen in Mr. Pei's Tengda company caught the eyes of all the audience.

Coffee bar, snack area, entertainment area, gym...

As the angle of view introduced the major facilities in the office building space in front of him, Luo Bai's unrecognizable plain voice narration also lingered in his ears.

"Some people may think that the birth of Ori will come from this office area that can stimulate the enthusiasm of employees at first glance, but the truth is often quite different from what the world imagines."

Immediately after the screen turned, the camera came to the first floor of an old residential area.

The iron door leading to the upstairs was stained with rust, and the black wall was eroded due to the accumulation of briquettes all year round.

Dirty and dilapidated constitute the audience's first impression of this community.

Mo Yun was a little dumbfounded, as if recalling the surprise in his first "guest" at Chuxin Game Studio.

Video continues.

Holding the shaky shooting equipment, the photographer trotted all the way up the cramped corridor.

"First floor...third floor...sixth floor..."

Until the seven characters "Chuxin Game Studio" pasted on the wall in the middle of the corridor with foam glue came into view.

Luo Bai's voice sounded again: "This is the place where Ori was born."

The photographer enters the room.

In the living room, which is not too big, apart from a small boxy table that can only accommodate eight people at most, even if it is squeezed, there is also a 75-inch Thunderbird monitor, and three mainframes are placed beside it.

Through the corridor leading to the guest room from the living room, the wall between the guest room on the right and the study room is opened, forming the game development department of Chuxin Game Studio.

The finance department, the office of the person in charge, and a balcony for letting the wind out.

It is extremely crude, and it is hard to think that Ori was developed from such a place.

"The original intention was to be a real grass-roots team. When this studio was first established, there were only me and a financial person in the company. It can be said that I am both the boss and the employee.

Although I already have a general framework in my mind for the whole idea of ​​Ori, but I know in my heart that it is definitely impossible to complete Ori with my own strength.

So I started Haitou to recruit people. "

The door of the game development department was pushed open, showing the audience the real battlefield of Ori Development.

Nine computers were placed in a haphazard manner in this small room, making it extremely cramped.

Among them, only four computers were turned on, except for the one near the door which was vacant, and three small heads buried their heads behind the computer screen, like three groundhogs.

After hearing the sound of Luo Bai opening the door, they raised their heads and called out "Brother Luo", but when they saw the shooting equipment in Luo Bai's hands, they swished their heads and shrank back.

"Why? You know social terror at this time, right?"

This sound is different from the narration, it is recorded by the shooting equipment, and the listener is very kind.

In front of the screen, Mo Yun rested his chin with his right hand, amused and envious.

The relationship at work is also too harmonious.

The narration also sounded at the right time:
"Pu Xingyu, Pang You, Chen Jiabin, the crouching dragon and phoenix chicks I found through Haitou.

They are all college students who have just graduated. Although their basic skills are solid enough, once they encounter a need for a little bit of detour, they will be caught blind in a hurry.

In the initial stage of Ori's development, I needed to teach many things hand in hand, so that they could complete the requirements I submitted to them.

To be honest, I feel that if three experienced people were replaced, Ori's development progress could be accelerated by more than a month.

It's just that the original intention at that time was too obscure, and no experienced person could take a fancy to it, unless I was willing to give a premium high treatment.

But I couldn't provide it. At that time, I could only give [-] yuan a month, which was only a little higher than the average salary in Shanghai. If it wasn't for the nine-to-five weekends, I am afraid that even these three college students would not have paid for it. Willing to take a look at the original heart.

At that time, I was really tired, I had to be busy with the work in hand, I had to deal with the relationship with the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, and I had to be the teacher of these guys, and I had to stay in the office after they got off work Change the bug until late at night. "

At this time, corresponding to the narration, are pictures of the early development of Ori.

"Luo Bai told everyone, what kind of code should be written to realize this requirement", "It was late at night, Luo Bai stayed in the office and wrote the code", "Suddenly the power went out during the day, and a few guys could only speak loudly in the development room. Eyes narrowed"...

"But the difficult days will finally pass. When the Ori project has entered the third month, the development progress of the entire Ori has officially entered the right track.

Pu Xingyu and the others have been able to complete all the tasks I assigned to them within the specified time, and sometimes they can have heated discussions with me and give some constructive suggestions.

I like to get along with young people like them, and their many inspirations can bring me considerable inspiration.

In the process of developing Ori together, we also formed a deep friendship. "

"Intense discussions", "The design of this small map was inspired by Pang You", "Everyone drank and kebabs together on the balcony at night"...

"Finally, on a very cold afternoon, we came back from the scorching heat and completely brought Ori's development to a halt."

In the center of the screen, the four embraced each other, shouting excitedly.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Mo Yun was filled with emotion.

It turns out that Ori was developed under such a difficult environment. During the development process of this road, the perseverance and unyielding spirit emerged, which is very touching.

From this article, we have seen more...

"Do the audiences who see this think that I am going to remember the bitterness and sweetness here?"

Luo Bai's sudden change of voice directly interrupted Mo Yun's reading comprehension, and Mo Yun almost flinched.

And then, Luo Bai's narration is even more deviant:

"I made the first half of this video just to show all viewers one thing, everything I showed above is the status quo of all independent game developers in China!

But not everyone can reproduce Ori's miracle.

Someone accepts capital injection and becomes a puppet of capital.

Ideas are distorted, ideas are dismissed, along the path of previous success, in the safest way, success is just right for bad money.

There are also people who don't want to be controlled by others and choose to go it alone.

Because of the lack of start-up funds, even if you have a good idea in your mind, you can only rent such a simple place to chase your dreams.

Due to the lack of start-up funds, it is difficult to find strong partners to support each other and move forward together.

Due to the lack of start-up funds, the final work is very likely to be aborted or unfinished due to the break of the capital chain!
But even so, no one will ever care about this group!

Game lovers who are truly passionate and idealistic can only turn games from love into a means of earning a living under the pressure of reality. "

With a long sigh:

"I am very lucky, Ori's success has allowed me to walk ahead of countless game producers, but not everyone can have the same luck as me.

I am a game producer, then, now, and in the future.

I often think, besides making a few fun games, what else can I bring to this industry, what else can I bring to this world?
I've been thinking about it for a long time and I can't find an answer...

But maybe you can give me an answer. "

The screen of the video switched back to the spacious and bright office building at the beginning.

In reverse:
Gym, entertainment area, snack area, coffee bar, office area...

Finally, the whole picture came to the front desk of the company, walked straight out of the glass sensor door, and a gilded signboard on the right was shining brightly:

[Chuxin Game Studio]
[The cradle of every game maker's dream]
On the barrage at that time, many netizens were already sending some complaints about "the strongest recruiting video in history" and "painting cakes with masters".

But Mo Yun touched his beating heart at this moment, and his whole body was trembling.

He felt a long-lost hot current surging all over his body.

"Go if you want."

Mo Yun turned around suddenly, it was Tang Yunpeng.

"If I didn't have any fighting spirit to forge ahead, maybe I would be persuaded by Mr. Luo."

Tang Yunpeng smiled cheerfully and looked at the screen with emotion in his heart.

There will always be young people who want to change the world.

And Mo Yun's heartbeat was also staged in the hearts of countless game producers in Yan Kingdom.
