Chapter 191 I Want to Remake Fifth Update
A few days later, when Yu Mengchen and Xie Qin got help from new people to make their work easier, they obviously felt really good.
With help, the two of them have more time to do the things and content they like more.
Otherwise, the two of them would still be stuck in somewhat boring and repetitive work.
Yu Mengchen sometimes has to stay in front of the computer for a whole day in order to draw a complete set of character action scenes.
Sometimes she forgets that she still has to go to class, which makes her teacher dissatisfied.
But now these repetitive tasks are handed over to newcomers to practice, and Yu Mengchen has time to draw more and better art works.
The same goes for Xie Qin.
Some sound effects also require a lot of repetitive work, and the game content needs to be tested again and again to ensure that the sound effects in each link are accurate.
From eight-bit consoles to the era of 16-bit game consoles, not only the graphics have improved, but also the difficulty of game development has improved.
This is unavoidable.
But there is also good news.
That is, after more than a month of tossing, Pajitnov finally left Mao Ziguo and came to China alone, to the city where Zuo Zhen was.
Pajitnov stood in front of the company compound of Real Games, his eyes a little dazed.
Is this where you will work from now on?
After arriving in China, he actually felt quite unfamiliar.
There is Chinese everywhere here, and he has not learned a few Chinese characters yet, so it is definitely inconvenient.
However, Zuo Zhen also promised him that for at least five years, Zuo Zhen would make proper arrangements for Pajitnov's food, clothing, housing and transportation.
But five years later, Pajitnov would have to figure it out on his own.
After all, you have to live in a new country, and you always have to gradually adapt to the various aspects of this country, especially the writing.
This kind of thing is definitely inevitable.
"Pajitnov, welcome to your new hometown."
Pajitnov did not wait at the door for too long. Zuo Zhen walked out of the office building to welcome his new players.
"Comrade Zuo Zhen, thank you for the invitation, but it seems that I will call you boss from now on, right? Because I heard that recently in your country, you like to be called boss, or... entrepreneur?"
Zuo Zhen waved his hand: "This kind of title is not important. If you don't mind, just call me Zuo Zhen. This will also show that we have the best relationship."
"Actually... I think so too."
Pajitnov also smiled.
He was actually a little afraid of embarrassment.
"Come on, come in with me. I'll introduce you to where you will work in the next few years and the colleagues who will work with you. But now you can only communicate in English. We still have some people here who can speak English. Yes, but I hope you can learn Chinese as soon as possible in the future."
"Well, I've already started studying, and I hope to integrate in as soon as possible."
Before coming, Zuo Zhen had actually expressed to him implicitly that he hoped to work in China for a long time.
Then Zuo Zhen said overtly and covertly that Mao Ziguo's current state was not particularly good.
If you continue to stay in Mao Ziguo, I'm afraid there won't be a good outcome.
And Pajitnov, a person who has experienced it personally, actually feels the most.
If this new place of work in Hua Xia could have a better working and living environment, he really wouldn't mind his whole family coming to live here.
What's more, there is a career that I like here.
Making video games is one of his favorite things to do.
Entering the office building, Zuo Zhen briefly introduced the employees to Pajitnov.
So far, Zuo Zhen has added more than a dozen programmers in addition to adding employees in sound effects and art.
The pressure on the development of art and sound effects has increased, and the pressure on program development and production has also increased simultaneously. There is even more pressure than art and sound effects.
It's a pity that there is not much soil for game engines in this world yet.
We have to wait until the 3D era arrives in the future before the game engine will have more room for development.
It doesn't make much sense to invest too much now.
Pajitnov greeted everyone one after another, and everyone else introduced themselves enthusiastically.
In this era, it is still relatively rare to see a foreigner with a Western face.
In particular, Pajitnov and Mao Ziguo's unique tall body shape gave them an exotic look.
After introducing each other, Pajitnov couldn't wait to find out what he could do next.
"I have already thought about your next work. I have several game development plans here. You can see which one you like and test the waters first."
Zuo Zhen took Pajitnov to a small room separated by himself.
This is Zuo Zhen's small office.
Zuo Zhen casually took out the game development plan he had prepared long ago.
These are Zuo Zhen’s game development directions in the future.
Metal Slug, Fire Emblem Part 2, and the currently unnamed Three Kingdoms series game.
These three games represent three specific types of games.
Horizontal adventure, war strategy, and production and management simulation games.
Pajitnov seriously took the plan handed over by Zuo Zhen and started to look at it.
After waiting for a few minutes, Pajitnov said hesitantly: "If it were me, I would be more inclined to develop this game called Fire Emblem. I think this game is the second one. Are there any previous works? "
Zuo Zhen nodded: "Yes, and there is also an English version. Just wait and I can show it to you later so that you can familiarize yourself with the basic process of the game. But except for this game, you can also use the other two games. Not very interested?"
"This...I'm not very familiar with it. In fact, I'm not even familiar with Fire Emblem. I just saw this mention of chess."
Zuo Zhen was stunned, and then asked: "Well, you can tell me what type of game you prefer to make. My plan is one thing, but whether you are willing to make this type of game is also another thing. You can't force it. .”
"Then...if possible, I would like to make a game similar to Tetris."
Pajitnov answered honestly.
"Puzzle type, right?"
"Yes." Pajitnov nodded.
He still feels that the Tetris he made is his most proud work.
With a work like this, he hopes to replicate his previous success.
"Then let me think about it..."
Zuo Zhen fell into deep thought.
It’s not like there aren’t games of this type.
But in terms of sales volume, it’s not too high.
But this game also has an advantage, that is, it can improve the style of the game.
The game is no longer limited to pure entertainment, but also adds some educational benefits, which is also nice to hear.
