Chapter 184 Shop Special

Thursday afternoon, physical education class.

After the two laps prescribed by the teacher were over, Yi Chen stretched his arms and legs and prepared to play basketball with the others.

There was no confrontation, just everyone chatting together, shooting shots and so on.The next class will be Hiratsuka Shizuka's Chinese class, if she exhausts too much energy and misses class, then it's not a joke.

After throwing a three-pointer and hitting the iron, Fujii wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Yi Chen.

"Yi Chen, your studio's new game will be released tomorrow, right? Are you not nervous at all?"

After receiving the bounced basketball, Yi Chen also made a three-pointer directly into the net, and said with a smile: "There is no need to be nervous, I have confidence in my game. And it is not the kind of blind and arrogant confidence. The quality is here, just wait for the sales to rise."

"It's really amazing, your studio."

Another boy said, "I've played the demo of Hollow Knight, it's really interesting. I've already pre-ordered a digital version of NS, and I'll start playing when it's unlocked tonight!"

"Hey, I pre-ordered the physical version of the store, and there is also a special pendant for the store that will be released for the first time."

For the offline release of games in Japan, physical stores will cooperate with developers to get some store-exclusive launch bonuses, which are different between several stores.Many diehard fans of the game will buy multiple copies in order to collect all the store special codes.If it is too late for one person, they will find a like-minded person, and each person will go to a specific store to buy a few more copies, and then they will exchange after meeting.

Yi Chen didn't have much experience with store special codes, so he simply entrusted Lao Ren to do it.

Perhaps because of the potential of Yichen's studio, the other party agreed directly.I don't know if I want to continue to cooperate in the follow-up, or whether to invest or directly acquire.

But Yichen doesn't care about these things, and it's impossible for anyone to buy the studio. It's best to maintain the current cooperation method.

It is rare for Lao Ren to directly acquire a studio. Most of them are based on cooperation or investment, and these are still negotiable.

"However, there are special offers in the store."

Yi Chen took the basketball that was passed to him, patted it repeatedly and said, "I've never done such a thing as queuing up to buy the game I developed. You can try it tomorrow."

On the other hand, a large part of the girls did not choose to exercise, but rested and watched.

Shi Yu was also among them, sitting on the grass watching Yi Chen playing basketball not far away.

Since being with Yi Chen, Shi Yu's whole person has softened a lot, and she is not as unwilling to be in contact with people as before.Although he still doesn't talk much, he won't act alone all the time, and he is quite happy to chat and gossip with the girls.

While interesting, you can also get inspiration for novel creation.

Of course, these are based on the premise that these girls get along well. Under the influence of Shizuka Hiratsuka, the class teacher, the atmosphere in this class is still very good.

Watching the boys playing basketball, a girl next to Shiyu said: "Student Yichen is so good at playing basketball. I really envy you, classmate Shiyu. The two of you are dating so soon. I have heard some high school students like you. A group of girls were chatting, and all of them regretted that they were late."

Listening to the girl's words, the corners of Shiyu's mouth turned up slightly: "Let them talk, in fact, even without my words, most of them would not be able to succeed. If it wasn't because of my close proximity, it is really impossible for the two of us to be able to date so quickly."

"You are still neighbors. The right time and place have taken advantage of you. But if you say that, has classmate Yi Chen met your family?"

"I've seen it."

Under such circumstances, Shi Yu certainly would not miss the opportunity to show off, "Mom and Dad like him very much, and not only that, I also met Chen Jun's mother during the summer vacation. The only thing I regret is , it should be that Chen Jun has to wait until he is in college before he can get married."

"marry?!!!"

The girls all exclaimed in unison, none of them had even been in a relationship, but Shiyu had already started talking about marriage.

"Is this Xueba? You are one step ahead in love."

"Don't talk about this topic anymore, I really can't hold back anymore!"

"I'm so tall that I've never held a boy's hand..."

"Oh? Haven't you even held hands before?"

"Have you taken it?"

"Well, my cousin's is 3 years old this year."

"Isn't that the same as nothing?!!!"

Listening to the conversation of these girls, Shiyu's face was filled with a bright smile, like a winner in life.

No, she is already a winner in life.

After watching Yi Chen play for a while, Shi Yu got up from the grass and patted some weeds on the sportswear.

"Student Shiyu, where are you going?"

After waving his hands, Shi Yu said slowly: "I'll go buy some drinks for Mr. Chen, please sit here, I'll just go there by myself."

After speaking, he walked towards the teaching building.

Seeing Shi Yu walking away slowly, the girls all sighed.

"Beautiful, good figure, and good grades, if I can have a little bit of the advantages of classmate Shi Yu, I should be able to have a boyfriend, right?"

"I think figure is the key, what do you think? Shiyu's figure is ridiculously good, and her peers don't have such a good figure at all!"

"Also, I feel that she seems to be getting more and more beautiful recently, do you think... um?"

"Hey!!! You are so bitter!!!"

............

After school, Yi Chen and Shi Yu went to the supermarket to buy a lot of ingredients before returning home.

I bought some mutton before, and Yichen tried to stew the mutton by himself, but the taste was not very good the first time. After adjustments, it should be ready to serve today.

After changing his clothes and coming to the studio with the ingredients for dinner, Yi Chen looked at the people who were huddled together and didn't know what to do, and asked, "What are you looking at? The games I asked you to send out yesterday have all been sent. ?"

"It's been sent! It will be done in the morning!"

Yashen Guang waved at Yi Chen, "Yi Chen, come here quickly, she is going to clear the game!"

"En? Are you going to get through?"

After hearing this, Yi Chen exchanged a glance with Shi Yu, and hurried over.

Everyone has got the physical version of the game for some time, but they don’t have much time to play. The four of them, Yichen himself, Shinoda Chu, Iori Yagami, and Ying Ningning, are the fastest, and they are almost clearing the level.

Originally, Yichen thought that the first person to clear the level would be himself or Ying Ningning who had the highest level, but he didn't expect that it would be Shinoda Chu.

From the looks of it, this guy has been staying up all night.

Walking up to Yashen Guang, Yi Chen saw that Shinoda Chu was playing in NS console mode, and came to the final boss area.

Chapter 185 Official Release

If you want to fight the final boss Radiance, you must first destroy the uncracked senbei, that is, the Hollow Knight.

"Hmph, this is not difficult for me."

Shinoda started the battle with Senbei full of confidence, and everyone watched together.

But after seeing the boss battle started, Yi Chen smiled and shook his head, then walked to the kitchen and started to process the mutton.

Within 2 minutes, he heard Shinoda Chu's screams from outside.

"Ah!!!! How did you die!"

Then there was a sound of footsteps, and Xiao Tianchu rushed into the kitchen, punching Yi Chen on the back.

Of course not.

"Yi Chen-jun, you actually changed the Hollow Knight's movements? I don't know why, I'm obviously an animation designer!"

Throwing the chopped mutton into the pot and starting the fire, Yi Chen turned around and looked at Shinoda Chu and said, "It hasn't changed much, has it? It's just that the boss's moves are a little more flexible, and the speed of the rushing moves is a little faster." , and then added some other moves."

"Oh? Are there any other moves?"

Seeing Xiao Tianchu's stunned expression, Yi Chen couldn't help laughing: "Why, haven't you reached the second stage? It seems that you still need to work hard. Come on, come on, try to clear the game before dinner is ready. By the way, let me tell you, there will be stewed mutton with white radish at night."

"Oh!! Mutton?"

As soon as she heard the food, Shinoda Chu's attention was instantly drawn away.

Looking at the mutton that was slowly cooking in the pot, she couldn't help swallowing and said, "Do you need help?"

"No, you go out first, and help me call Sister Lun and Shi Yu in. Even if you want to sneak in while cooking, it's useless. This is not a dish that allows you to sneak in half. Let's eat with everyone."

"Okay~~~"

After answering, Xiao Tianchu finally left the kitchen and called Ron Toyama and Shiwa over, and the three of them started to handle everyone's dinner today.

Ying Lili didn't come today either, there is a banquet at home to attend, but they agreed to go to the game's current release store together tomorrow morning.For this reason, Ying Lili took a rare leave with her teacher, and asked her mother Sayuri Sawamura to help cover up, not revealing the fact that she was going to the game release site.

The dinner went smoothly, but unfortunately, the final boss battle on Shinoda's side was not so smooth.

During the nearly two hours, she tried countless times. Although the radiation was shot out a few times during the period, it is obvious that Yi Chen not only changed the combat mode of the Hollow Knight, but also changed the radiation. Not a small change brought her a lot of trouble in this action design.

The number of deaths in these two hours in the afternoon can be said to be more than the number of times she died in the previous three days combined.

"I can't, I really can't, I can't fight anymore, I have to take it easy."

Putting down the handle, Shinoda Chu leaned back on the chair, as if he had lost his dream in life.

Iori Yagami and Ying Ningning, who had been watching from the side, were equally shocked. They didn't expect that the final boss battle would be so difficult. Even Shinoda Chu, who was basically unbeaten before, was shocked when facing the final battle. suffered a great deal.

Touching his chin, Yagami Guang said: "Sure enough, I felt it two days ago, and the difficulty of the game has gradually increased since the middle stage. It's just because the previous game was relatively smooth, and I was facing the boss. It was more cautious at the time, and there was not much difficulty. But now it seems that the difficulty of the later stage is indeed much higher than that of the previous one, and it is not simply a bonus value."

Although Iori Yagami is the main artist of the studio, she doesn't know much about the monster's action design and combat values. These are not things she needs to care about. She just needs to do what she wants to draw perfectly. That's it.

Now it seems that Yi Chen has no intention of spoiling the players at all. He directly raised the difficulty that a horizontal version of an action game should have. The difficulty curve is also well done, and the final boss is full of pressure. .

"Everyone, dinner is ready, it's time to eat~~~"

Yuan Shanlun's voice came, and everyone immediately put down what they were doing and ran to the dining table.

It was the same with Xiao Tianchu. Although she was exhausted in the game, she obviously didn't forget what Yi Chen said before, that tonight there will be a dish of stewed mutton with Bian radish.

There aren't many people who eat mutton here, but she doesn't think Yi Chen can cook it well, after all, he uses a recipe from home.

After washing his hands and sitting down, everyone saw Yi Chen brought out a big soup pot from the kitchen, and a faint fragrance came out through the pot lid.

"smell good..."

Putting the soup pot in the center of the dining table, Yi Chen confidently opened the lid.

"Let's serve dinner. This is today's main dish. Stewed mutton with white radish. I have researched it myself before. You will definitely like the taste of what I have made now."

In the big soup pot, pieces of mutton and sliced ​​white radish are mixed together, piled up in the clear but full of fragrance soup, which makes people appetite full at first glance.

"Oh!!!"

Looking at the pot of soup, Haizi said in surprise, "If such a dish is placed in a restaurant, the price will not be cheap."

Yi Chen sat down beside Shi Yu, looked at everyone and said, "The game will be officially released tonight. Before this release, it's just right for us to celebrate together."

Picking up the cup filled with Coke, Yi Chen said happily: "Everyone has worked hard these past few months, cheers!"

"cheers!!!"

Because we have to get up early tomorrow to go to the scene, everyone didn’t drink, but the warm atmosphere still made everyone very happy, and the dinner was very delicious, so everyone was full again.

This also caused several people to sleep in the studio without going back, and only Hazuki Shizuku, Ming Haiyan, Mochizuki Hongye and Haizi went back at night.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Yichen and Shiyu were in the bedroom at home, turned on the computer and boarded station B, and watched the pre-sale live broadcast event launched by station B.The ten game anchors participating in the live broadcast are all very popular, so the attention of Hollow Knight has been raised to a higher level than before.

After watching the live broadcast for an hour, the time came to 12 o'clock in the evening, and the Hollow Knight was finally officially unlocked.

All of a sudden, whether it was the background of NS or the background of Steam, the number of online players of Hollow Knight had a drastic increase.

Five thousand, ten thousand, fifteen thousand...

Half an hour later, the total number of online users on the two platforms directly exceeded [-], and this figure is still increasing steadily, and the sales volume has also increased by a large part. On the steam side, it should be able to be on the best-selling list in the country, and it should be able to squeeze up the global rankings.

Yi Chen is not worried about the sales on the first day.

Great success!

Chapter 186 Morning

At 06:30 in the morning, the set alarm clock rang, and Yi Chen woke up on time.

After checking the number of people online last night, Yi Chen quickly went to sleep because he had to go to the scene earlier in the morning.

Amidst the noise of the alarm clock, Shi Yu opened his eyes in a daze, obviously still sleepy.

"It's morning?"

Yi Chen who had already sat up at the side looked at Shi Yu who was still curled up in the bed, and said with a smile, "If you are sleepy, wait a while or don't go, sleep a little longer."

But Shi Yu didn't agree, she shook her head and sat up, leaned on Yi Chen's shoulder and closed her eyes: "No, let's get up, we agreed to go together, this is the physical version of your game, Mr. Chen, I have to see it with my own eyes. Besides, I haven’t bought the first game yet, so I want to experience it. However, it’s really early at this time, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to line up?”

"It should be more than just not being able to line up."

Yi Chen helped Shi Yu straighten her hair, and said, "Hollow Knight is just a high-quality game from an independent studio after all, not a popular masterpiece. Even if there are people queuing up, the number of people should not be particularly large. The main reason is that everyone wants to go early Go over and stand in front. Well, hurry up and wash up."
