Chapter 29 There Is Potential for an Explosive Game!

The official app store is different from some other game channels. 400 downloads in 24 hours seem to be very, very few, but in fact, this data is not bad.

Some other game channels, such as the Emperor Dynasty game platform or the brand app stores of major mobile phone manufacturers, their recommendation positions can be bought directly with money. If you want to check the list, as long as you say hello to the platform, you can also silently check. one time.

Therefore, on other game channels, as long as you are willing to spend money, it is not surprising that the number of downloads on the first day is directly tens of thousands.

However, the official app store refuses to swipe any charts. When new games are launched, they can only be found in an inconspicuous corner. Like "Storm Rider Adventure", even if they are on the new charts and new games It is recommended to travel, and only a few people will download it.

However, the official app store will automatically adjust the recommendation position according to various data of the new game. For the data of "Storm Rider Adventure", the next recommendation will probably be the recommendation of new games or classified games, and the download volume will increase all of a sudden.

If the next recommendation, the download volume and rating of "Storm Rider Adventure" can still maintain a good level, then the recommendation position will become better. If this virtuous cycle continues, the download volume will decrease within a week or two. From hundreds to tens of thousands.

Of course, this kind of "virtuous cycle" can only be achieved by a very small number of high-quality games, and most ordinary games are discontinued due to data decline in the middle of the recommendation.

The official app store is different from other platforms, and it is divided into very little, only 20% of the game revenue.

As for the tax deduction, it is relatively troublesome. The tax deduction method is different from Chen Mo's previous life, but it is not difficult to calculate. Transaction tax and income tax with various miscellaneous taxes are deducted at about 30%.

Of course, the main tax deductions are pure profits, but the R&D cost of game designers is not as high as that of traditional companies, so the profits are high, and the tax deduction is more severe.

If it is 100,000 downloads, Lin Mao's income can be 2 million without discount, and 1.12 million after deducting platform share and various taxes.

Although it is only half of it, it is already a big profit.

Of course, sales are also affected by the price of the game. The price of a game like Lin Mao is 20 yuan, and it is relatively difficult to reach 100,000 downloads.

However, even if the price is cheap, down to 10 yuan, there are not many games with more than 100,000 downloads in the entire app store.

This kind of game is basically a frequent visitor to various lists, and the recommendation position is to be soft to achieve.

The games of many small transparent designers are basically only a few thousand downloads. They work hard for half a year, earn more than 100,000 yuan, and have to bear various expenses to barely maintain their food and clothing.

Chen Mo said: "In another hour or two, it's time to refresh the recommendation position, right? Let's see where we can climb to."

Lin Mao nodded: "Yeah, I look at the game data of the same period, and my game is relatively optimistic. But it's hard to say, after all, we don't know the recommendation algorithm of the app store."

It can be seen that Lin Mao is still a little nervous. This recommendation will basically affect the future fate of this game to a large extent. For Lin Mao, this game is full of hard work, sincerity and creativity. Now it depends on the players. of acceptance.

Chen Mo patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, the quality of the game is here, what are you afraid of?"

Lin Mao said: "Well, I hope. By the way, is your game playable? I'll see if I can give you some advice from another angle."

Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, you can play with a computer or a mobile phone."

Lin Mao was stunned for a moment: "It's still double-ended? Your kid's ambition is not small! Then I'll use a mobile phone, I'm used to using a mobile phone."

After installing the game, Lin Mao clicked the icon on the screen to open Plants vs. Zombies.

Lin Mao played for ten minutes, and was quickly attracted by the game.

"This game... has a high degree of completion!"

After all, Lin Mao is a game designer, and he looks at the game from a different angle than other players. He was surprised to find that the graphics, music, interface, gameplay, etc. of this game fit very well, and he couldn't even pick out any faults!

The novice guide is simple and clear, it is quick to get started, the level difficulty setting is reasonable, and the combat system is rich...

If someone told Lin Mao now that this is a boutique game on the best-selling list, he would not doubt it at all!

"This... is this what you made in three months?" Lin Mao looked at Chen Mo with an incredible expression on his face.

Chen Mo nodded: "Well, the idea has been conceived for a long time, how about it?"

Lin Mao couldn't stop nodding: "It's awesome, I think it has the potential to become an explosive game! In terms of quality, it has already crushed many games on the list. When are you going to launch?"

Chen Mo said: "Tomorrow. I have collected some player feedback in the past two days, and they are generally not bad. Some unreasonable places have also been revised, and there is no major problem. After the launch, the player data will be more. next update."

Lin Mao said: "I see, your game is so much better than mine, I didn't expect it, you are really enlightened, how did you suddenly become so powerful!"

Chen Mo smiled and said, "What's the matter. Besides, whether the game can be successful or not depends not only on the quality, but also on luck. I hope our games can sell well."

Lin Mao said: "Yes, I hope it will be a big hit, and then we will be able to have a partner on the new tour list."

In the past three days, nearly 100 people have played "Plants vs. Zombies", and some of them are wild players from the Luyu experience store, most of which are drawn by Wen Lingwei and Jia Peng. .

After these people returned, they spontaneously introduced the game to their roommates. As a result, Chen Mo's experience store received another batch of players.

Now Chen Mo's experience store has more than ten people every day, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is much more lively.

Chen Mo and Lin Mao chatted for a while.

"Huh? The recommendation has been brushed!" Lin Mao said in surprise.

Chen Mo leaned over and said, "Look, where is the new recommendation?"

Lin Mao rummaged through the app store excitedly: "Classification game recommendation! New tour boutique! Both recommendations are up!"

"It's awesome." Chen Mo smiled, "You have a rhythm that needs to be popular."

These two recommendations are good recommendations for new games. Category game recommendations can bring a lot of players who like this type of game to the game, while new travel boutique recommendations will attract players who like to find new games.

At the same time, two recommendations were made, indicating that "Storm Rider Adventure" has been listed as a key recommended game in the system score, and it will inevitably usher in a surge in sales in the short term.

If the previous high ratings can continue, there is almost no doubt that this game will get better recommendations, and it is even possible that it will be recommended on the homepage.

Lin Mao patted his chest: "Finally don't worry, the second recommendation is too crucial."

Chen Mo reminded: "Don't be careless, you should pay more attention to player comments. There may be some competitors smearing, you have to be careful."

Lin Mao nodded: "Well, I know, this is just the second recommendation, it's still early before the game really catches fire."

The two chatted for a few more hours, and by the way, they studied the new games of the same period and paid attention to the data of each game. In the evening, when the experience store closed, the two of them went for a late-night snack, and then Lin Mao left.

After all, he needs to pay attention to various game data and player feedback now, which is the critical time. And Chen Mo also had to prepare for the launch of the game, and neither of them had much time.
