I play games in Zongman World

I am playing games in Zongman World Author: Second Battalion Commander

Summary:

Traveling to the Zongman world, returning to his old business and starting to develop games, recreating various games from his previous life in this world.

Slay the Spire, Binding Isaac, Hollow Knight, Dark Souls, Sniper Elite, Nioh...

From pixel-style independent games to large stand-alone, open world

It's just that the players found out why the difficulty of the game this guy made gradually increased?

Chapter 1 Developing a Game?I can do it

"This is me, time-traveled? I remember that I worked overtime all night before, and then fell asleep directly."

In a strange bedroom, Yi Chen looked at his much younger face in the mirror, feeling the completely different but somewhat similar memories in his mind from his previous life, and fell into confusion.

The name of the body that crosses over is also Yi Chen, and its appearance is exactly the same as her own, even the names and looks of her parents are the same. She is 17 years old and just came to Japan to study three days ago.

She is very strong in her studies. She learned Japanese in one year and obtained the consent of her parents, so she came here to study abroad.

As for the purpose of studying abroad, of course it is because this guy is a nerd and wants to develop games by himself, and even plans to try to join Nintendo after graduating from university.

It's just that this guy was very excited after moving here, and he completely let himself go. He played all kinds of exciting games and watched all kinds of games all night long, and died suddenly, giving Yi Chen the opportunity to travel through time and possess himself.

Recalling that the original owner was discussing the game with others on the Internet, but was forced to set a flag that he must complete a big-selling game by himself, Yi Chen took a deep breath and said softly: "Don't worry, if it's something else, I might not be able to do it. , but isn’t it just a game? I used to do this. Let me make your wish come true.”

In the next second, it seemed that he was half relieved. Yi Chen felt that he was more familiar with this body, and the thinking in his mind became extremely clear.

"Is this considered to be completely integrated with this body? It feels good, young is good."

After moving his body for a while, Yi Chen began to recall his past experience in game development in his mind, as well as the detailed memory of the former owner of this body.

After spending almost half an hour, Yi Chen sorted out his thoughts and opened his eyes again.

Feeling the game development knowledge and experience that has accompanied him for a long time in his mind, and looking around the room full of game and animation posters, Yi Chen sat in front of the computer with a smile on his face.

"The first thing to do next is to choose the first game to be produced."

The game industry in this world is not the same as Yi Chen's previous life. Many games still exist, such as Capcom, Devil May Cry, Monster Hunting and Biochemical are all well-known game series.

Another example is the Assassin's Creed series and the Tomb Raider series. They are all popular game series, but they have also fallen into the bottleneck of innovation. The release time of subsequent new games is estimated to be delayed.

Although some masterpiece games from previous lives have appeared in this world, there are still some well-known game developers, such as the old thief Miyazaki and brother Shima, but the psychopath who plays golf is still jumping around.

But the game development time in this world is a bit different. It is now 2021, and the release date of The Last of Us 2 has just been announced, and it will not be released until July 22 next year.

"That's okay, I won't step on mines again this time, this game disgusted me back then."

In addition to these masterpieces, Yi Chen also thought of many niche or independent games in this world that he had played in his previous life. Many of them he had never played in his previous life, but they were equally excellent.

After browsing through the memories in his mind and searching the steam on the computer, Yi Chen had a preliminary plan.

"I'm alone now, and I can't make any large-scale games, so I can only start from independent boutique games, and the research and development difficulty should not be too great. So, the first game I want to develop..."

To create a folder, Yi Chen tapped the keyboard.

"Slay the spire"

In his previous life, Yi Chen was very obsessed with an independent card rouge game, with a total sales volume of over one million. Later, console and mobile versions were developed. It can be said that this type of card building + rouge game became popular.

Yi Chen himself is also very addicted to this game, and has played for more than two hundred hours.

While typing on the keyboard, Yi Chen said to himself: "The game of Slaying the Spire is not complicated. There are four characters, three modes, tower climbing, and the core is the card and the path selection in the process. In terms of painting style, this kind of painting Feng, I can still try to draw. If it’s really not good, it’s a big deal to spend money to hire a painter to help. But it’s better to do it by yourself. The cost of hiring someone is very high, and I don’t want to ask my parents for money now. "

In his previous life, Yi Chen entered the game industry after graduating from university. He has worked hard for five years and has countless game development experiences in his mind. Learning art knowledge, although I can't compare with professional painters in painting, I can barely do it by myself.

While thinking about it, Yi Chen studied the engine to be used to develop the game next.

The Slaying Spire in his previous life seemed to use a very small engine, and he hadn't paid attention to it at all.However, for a game of this scale, there is no need to find the exact same engine.

"If you have Unity, then use this."

Unity is a widely used engine, which can be used to develop both 2D and 3D games, and the supported platforms also include PC, host, tablet, mobile phone and VR.

If Yichen remembers correctly, more than half of the games on all platforms on the market are developed and produced with unity.

"I didn't expect that guy from the predecessor to know quite a lot. Unity has already been installed. That's not bad, it saves me a lot of effort."

After moving around, Yi Chen checked the development interface of Unity, which was basically the same as the one he used in his previous life, and even provided more resource materials than his previous life, which made Yi Chen more interested in the development of the Slaying Spire Confidence.

"So, let's start working now! First write out the development draft of the game, and then the gameplay and settings..."

Although I made it by myself, but with a plan, the production can be carried out more smoothly, instead of thinking that one release is one release, which will only disrupt the development rhythm of the game.

"Goo~~~"

Before typing a few words, there was a loud noise in my stomach.

"Well, I was so excited just now that I forgot that this body hasn't eaten a proper meal for two whole days."

After saving the files on the computer, Yi Chen took out his mobile phone and looked at the current deposits.

"Good guy, I'm much richer than when I was 17 years old. It seems that the parents in this world are doing much better in business than in the previous life, and they are in good health, unlike in the previous life. gone."

Since the funds are sufficient, there is no problem, Yi Chen first found a bread to cushion his stomach in the house, took a shower, changed his clothes, and then went out.

Chapter 2 The Kasumigaoka House Next Door

When I went out, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. The weather in early March was still a bit cold, but the sun was very good.

"Tsk tsk, 21 years in the parallel world is really good, you don't need to wear a mask to go out."

While sighing, Yi Chen walked on an unfamiliar street.

In my memory, I only moved to Tokyo for a week. Except for two trips to Akihabara a few days ago, I basically stayed at home.

"But fortunately, the predecessor has a strong learning ability, and there are no language barriers, otherwise it would be bad."

Yichen himself can only speak English, and he only knows some Japanese that he has seen in animations and short movies.

Soon, following the direction of memory, Yi Chen came to a convenience store and bought two boxes of lunch boxes and some snacks and drinks.

It's late today, let's make a living first, and then go shopping for vegetables tomorrow.

In the previous life, he worked alone for several years and was always alone, but he also practiced a good cooking skill.

Carrying the bag and walking back, Yi Chen considered the next arrangement.

"Well, you need to take care of your body first. Now that I am 17 years old again, it is absolutely impossible for me to get tired. I must practice a good body. I will start running in the morning after getting up in the morning. Also, I still have to go to school. In April When I was about to enter school, I went to Toyosaki Gakuen to study in the second year of high school... Toyosaki?"

Stopping in his tracks, Yi Chen looked at the surrounding buildings, picked up his phone and searched, and showed an expression of disbelief.

"Immortal River Library... Really..."

But it's just a sigh, Yi Chen's current thoughts are all on game development.

"I have come to this world, so I can't let the games in my memory only exist in my memory, I must make them one by one!"

Thinking of this, Yi Chen walked back home.

And just 10 minutes after Yichen came back, a tall, black, long straight girl in a dress and black pantyhose, carrying a delicate bag, came out of the elevator with a sad face and came to the apartment next door to Yichen. , took out the key and opened the door.

"I am back..."

"You're back, Shi Yu, how are you talking with the editor?"

In the kitchen, a mature woman who was seven points like a girl came out with a spatula in her hand.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu shook her head: "I was picked on for an hour, and the whole article has to be revised and polished. Fortunately, there is still some time before publication, and there is still time."

The woman nodded and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, just take your time, I believe my daughter will be fine. But it's still on vacation now, and when school starts, you have to take care of my studies, you know Is it? Otherwise, the grades will drop, even if I don't say anything, your father will be angry. "

"Don't worry mom, I know, I'm going back to my room."

"Ah, wait a minute, Shiyu!"

Just when Xiazhiqiu Shiyu was about to go back to her room, her mother stopped her, and took out a cardboard box from the kitchen and put it in her daughter's hand.

"The kid who moved in next door came back after going out. Go and deliver these snacks. It's not easy for him to study alone. As neighbors, we have to say hello and get to know each other."

Looking at the dessert in his hand, Kasumigaoka Shiyu said with a stiff face: "Mom, why don't you go by yourself?"

"Why don't you change it, I'll deliver things, and you cook?"

"...I see, can't I go?"

Sighing, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu had no choice but to put the bag on the sofa, and left the house with the snacks.

Arriving at the door of Yichen's house next door, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu opened a sect whose name was not yet written, hesitated for a while, and finally rang the doorbell.

"Ding~~~dong~~~"

Yi Chen, who was eating and typing on the keyboard in the room, heard the doorbell, although he was puzzled, he quickly swallowed what was in his mouth and ran out of the room.

"I'm coming!"

As soon as he opened the door, Yi Chen saw a long, black girl standing at the door holding a box in her hand, and was stunned for a moment.

Yi Chen's naive expression made Xiazhiqiu Shiyu feel less nervous in an instant, and said with a smile: "Hello, I am the daughter of Xiazhiqiu's family who lives next door, and this is a snack my mother asked me to bring. Please take it."

"Ah...ah, thank you!"

Yi Chen who came back to his senses was a little restrained, took the snack box and said, "Sorry, I just moved here, and the house hasn't been tidied up yet, and there is no way to return the gift."

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu shook her head: "It's okay, don't worry about these."

Passing over Yichen, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu really saw the open cardboard boxes in the house behind.

Glancing at Yi Chen who matched her own age, recalling what her mother said just now, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu asked: "I heard from my mother that you are here to study abroad?"

Yi Chen hadn't recovered from the other party's surname "Xiazhiqiu", nodded and said: "Well, I'm going to school in Toyosaki next month."

"Toyosaki?"

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu raised her eyebrows and said: "Then we will be classmates next time, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, and I will be promoted to sophomore next."

"Hello, my name is Yi Chen, and I will be a sophomore in high school soon."

After introducing himself, Yi Chen suddenly couldn't get any topics to talk about. After all, he has been engaged in game development, so it was a bit difficult for him to suddenly chat with a beautiful girl.

Xiazhiqiu Shiyu is similar, after knowing Yi Chen's name, she didn't stay any longer: "The dim sum is just made, but it's best to eat it quickly, I'll go back first."

"Ah, thank you."

After watching Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu go back, Yi Chen also closed the door.

"I didn't expect it to be directly next door to me. How come there is no memory of this predecessor? It seems that I have met the mother of that Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, and only said a few words."

Shaking his head, Yi Chen opened the cardboard box, looked at the pieces of cookies inside, and smiled, "The things are really good, we must give a gift in return."

Next door, after Xiazhiqiu Shiyu returned home, Mrs. Xiazhiqiu came out of the kitchen again: "How is it, have you seen it?"

"Well, I saw it, and I gave you something."

Looking at her daughter, Mrs. Xia Zhiqiu asked with a smile: "How is that child, isn't he handsome?"

"..."

Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mother's face, but he still replied, "Well, he is indeed handsome, but it has nothing to do with me. I'll go back to my room first."

Seeing her daughter go back to the room, Mrs. Xia Zhiqiu shook her head helplessly: "Oh, what should I do with this child? He has been in high school for a year, and he doesn't communicate with boys very much. He knows how to write novels all day long. But now the next door comes Having someone of the same age, I can let her get in touch with her more, but I can’t keep doing this forever. What is this called... Ah, by the way, social terror?"

Chapter 3 Getting Started with Development

Yi Chen didn't know what happened next door, and when he returned to his room, he continued to eat lunch and carry out his work.

In his previous life, his work was all for food and clothing. Even though his own strength was good, after working in the industry for a few years, he no longer had the initial drive, let alone lead the development of a game by himself.

After traveling to this world and becoming younger, perhaps because of his predecessor's love for games, Yi Chen once again felt the enthusiasm and drive he had when he first came into contact with the game industry.

"There are not so many interesting games in the previous life in this world. I really can't bear it. Let's start with Slaying the Spire."

Soon after the bento was finished, Yi Chen patted his stomach contentedly, cleared the table, opened the snacks sent by Kasumigaoka Shiyu, and devoted himself to work while eating.

As a person who would concentrate on nothing else at the beginning of work, after half an hour, Yi Chen slowly stopped his hands, feeling something was wrong.

"It seems that my memory has become better than expected? Is it the reason for time travel?"

In my memory, whether it is the games I played when I was young, or the various games I played when I grew older, such as God of War, Titanfall, Alchemy Workshop, Black Soul, etc., every detail in the game seems to be engraved in my mind Generally speaking, it will come out directly when you think about it.

"This memory... really helps a lot, and the thinking is also very clear."

Looking at the computer screen, Yi Chen's expression gradually became excited, "In this case, the first game may be completed faster than I imagined!"
