Game Design: Is It Possible? CaiGou

Chapter 285 I'm Determined to Take over Stardew Valley. Even Jesus Can't Stop It. I Said (Please Subscribe)

In a prosperous magical city, in a quiet and elegant tea room.

The bosses of the four game companies, Fengqi, Wutong, Baihua, and Qingshan, gathered in the tea room.

The four of them were looking resentful at the moment, watching the live broadcast on the screen with cold eyes. The content of the live broadcast was Cai Gou's inaugural speech at the Sichuan Provincial General Assembly.

These four game companies were unable to get mercy even if they wanted to beg for mercy after the incident. Cai Gou made it clear that he would learn from them.

In fact, who in the entire gaming circle doesn’t know that Taipingdao is targeting them and wants to snipe their new game?

Now that things have developed, it is unrealistic to say that they have no regrets in their hearts, but what's the use of regrets? There are no regret pills in the real world.

Liu Mufeng from Fengqi Game Company didn't wait for Cai Gou to finish his speech, he closed the live broadcast directly, turned to the other three people and said: "Sure enough, I only called the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. Cai Gou, the old thief, is really an old thief. …”

Jiang Zhihao from Wutong Game Company snorted coldly when he heard this: "What's the use of saying these sarcastic words now? People are powerful, so we should think about ourselves first."

"Yeah... Do we really never release games? They won't accept it if we just declare surrender, so we can only sit and wait for death?" Qian Rui of Baihua Game Company asked.

Zheng Min from Qingshan Game Company heard this and explained: "To put it bluntly, if others' ambitions destroy their own prestige, it is impossible for the four of us game companies to be tied together and surpass Taipingdao."

"But it's impossible for us to just sit and wait for death. We can't really be frightened by the old thief's words and keep delaying the game release plan, right? We really don't want to be in this industry anymore, right?"

Liu Mufeng said: "Old Zheng, since we are here, we naturally want to find a solution to the problem. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Hearing this, the other two people nodded again and again, looking at Zheng Min with expectations in their eyes. Zheng Min was not polite at all and said frankly:

"In terms of strength, reputation, branding, and popularity, we can't compare to Cai Gou in these aspects. He does have sniping ability."

"But the problem is..." Zheng Min raised his eyebrows and said with a smirk: "As far as I know, in addition to the projects for military orders, Taipingdao is also preparing games to participate in the Journey Cup competition next year."

"Even if Cai Gou really knows how to snipe us, he will not lose the big for the small, so I think what he said about Stardew Valley and Ark: Survival Evolved is the biggest he has accumulated without hindering Taipingdao's own game plan. trump card.”

"What is this called? This is called game deterrence!" Zheng Min looked around at the crowd and said solemnly: "But what if we let him have an arrow on the string and have to fire it?"

Liu Mufeng's eyes lit up and he answered: "You mean to let him snipe us, just to use Tian Ji's horse racing method to exhaust his trump cards, and then we can make a big move?"

Qian Rui also responded: "The Taipingdao project team always likes to operate at full capacity. The four of us released two shoddy mini-games, leaving him with no trump cards."

"In order not to affect the journey cup and military orders, Cai Gou naturally made this sniper attack without incident and eventually became a joke."

Jiang Zhihao clapped his hands and laughed: "Isn't Cai Gou elected as the vice president? It is said that a new official has three things to do when he takes office. Let's give him a big gift to make him understand that what he said is nothing but bullshit!"

Liu Mufeng was relieved and said: "I happen to have a pixel-style farming management game called Farm Story. It was originally a reskinned game, and I planned to make some money."

"Well, don't fight me, I'll take the first shot! I want to see how many eyes Lord Cai Gouma has!"

Faced with Liu Mufeng's desire to be the leader, the other three game companies naturally agreed with both hands and feet.

On the same day, the Sichuan Provincial Game Reelection Conference came to a successful conclusion, and the news that Cai Gou was elected as the vice president of the Sichuan Provincial Game Association also spread like wildfire on the Internet.

Some people who don't play games at all on weekdays couldn't help but feel jealous when they saw the hot news headline, the youngest vice president of a provincial association in history, and Cai Gou's handsome young appearance in the published photos.

"What are you doing? You don't avoid people when doing this kind of thing now? It's a secret operation, right?"

"A young man like this can be the vice president of the Sichuan Game Association? The game industry is over!"

"Haha, what's the background of this young man? Is he a master of heaven? Does he treat this as a family?"

Players in the gaming industry are not used to these overtly sarcastic remarks.

Some players stated Cai Gou’s status in the gaming industry.

Some players listed games released by Taipingdao Company.

Some players introduced Cai Gou's contribution to the game industry.

One by one, one by one, I slapped these people in the face, without even using Cai Gou. To this day, there are great scholars who argue for me.

Cai Gou flew back to Shancheng. He first went to the Shancheng Game Association and held a meeting to convey the spirit of some instructions from his superiors.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Cai Gou had just returned to the company to work when he saw Zhu Pingan hurried to his office and said with excitement:

"Brother Gou, Brother Gou, Fengqi Game Company, one of the four leading companies, has made some noise!"

"Oh?" Cai Gou also became interested and took the tablet from Zhu Ping'an.

[Fengqi Game Company: The New Year is approaching. Taking advantage of this season, Fengqi Game Company will participate in the grand event with the help of the Steam Platform Farm Management Game Festival. It will be released on January 10th and release a farming management type pixel style game - Farm Story. , See you there then]

"January 10th? Today is the 7th, and there are only a few days until the 10th..."

Cai Gou raised his eyebrows and said, "Unexpectedly, among the four, the one who first jumped out to stand out was not Qingshan, who was scolded the most harshly on the Internet, but Fengqi, who had been silent all this time."

"Brother Dog, what do you think we should do?" Zhu Pingan asked, "Do you want to do him or not?"

Cai Gou sneered and said, "What's the point? No matter what little calculation they have, they'll be done with it!"

"In the game genre of farming and management, especially in the pixel style genre, Stardew Valley has never been afraid of anyone!"

Cai Gou tapped his fingers on the table, thought for a moment, and said, "In this way, Taipingdao will announce an event in the name of my elected vice president, and use this name to release Stardew Valley on the 10th."

"Also, from the 10th to New Year's Day, let Angkor hold a lottery for the Uprising No. 1 helmet in the Taipingdao community. Try to build up the momentum. Since Fengqi is willing to be the first bird, then Get down with one move, don’t hold back!”

Zhu Pingan's blood surged up when he heard this, and he laughed on the spot and said: "Brother Dog, you are so excited for me. Don't worry, leave this matter to me."

"Eh..." Zhu Pingan was about to leave when he suddenly thought of a question and turned around and said, "When will the promotional video for Stardew Valley be released?"

"It's better to hurry up than to hurry up." Cai Gou said loudly, "Today is the day."

Zhu Pingan nodded and said, "Okay."

Cai Gou's appointment as the vice president of the Sichuan Provincial Game Association became the hottest news in the gaming circle at the end of the year, and the exposure of the Sichuan Provincial Game Association increased a lot.

But just when Cai Gou had just taken office and had not ignited the three fires, Fengqi Game Company released a game trailer that attracted everyone's attention.

These days, who doesn’t know that Fengqi, Wutong, Baihua, and Qingshan, as participants in the Phantom Beast Parlu plagiarism scandal, were regarded by Cai Gou as a typical example of being the first person, and Cai Gou even said that he must pay attention to these four Learn from game companies.

In fact, any player in the gaming circle who has learned about this knows what this means.

Everyone knows in their hearts that Cai Gou is developing Stardew Valley and Ark: Survival Evolved in order to snipe these four leading game companies, even though he has military orders and is competing in next year's Journey Cup.

It's just... everyone didn't expect that Fengqi Games would release a trailer for a new game at the juncture of Cai Gou's new appointment.

This was completely unexpected, but after careful consideration, the players were not surprised but overjoyed.

What does the new game trailer of Fengqi indicate?

Talking about Celebrity Valley will be released soon!

Damn it!

It’s the end of the year, and players have been busy for a year. They finally have spare money and time, but they are worried that there are no new games to play. This operation by Fengqi Games can be regarded as a good thing for players.

Douyu live broadcast platform, game area.

Wang Laoju had just finished a game in the world map mode of Taipingdao simulated flight. Her uprising helmet was placed aside and she was chatting with water friends.

After the development of Taipingdao Flight Simulator in the past few months, the number of players has been increasing day by day. As more and more players pass the novice tutorial, the world map mode has gradually become a favorite among flight players.

but……

The world map is good no matter what, but it is too hard-core and takes too long. Often after a game, it often takes several hours, and the player is exhausted even if he wins.

At this moment, Wang Laoju was stuck in this state. As a result, he had not yet reached the time point for the next broadcast, but he would rather chat with water friends than start another Taipingdao simulated flight.

"Brothers, if you ask me to say that Fengqi Game Company is looking for death." Wang Laoju said excitedly: "The old thief has always been known for his varied styles. Hardcore, abstract, real, plot, there is nothing he can't play. game type."

"This new wave of game announcements from Fengqi Games is undoubtedly a trick, but I'm quite happy. After all, thanks to Fengqi Games, we can experience Stardew Valley in advance!"

When the water friends heard this, their attitude was naturally one-sided in support of Taiping Dao, and they all burst into laughter.

"A clumsy first-timer!"

"A standout? Still clumsy?"

"It's broken, you are Cyber ​​Emei Peak, right?"

"Hahahaha, you guys are too crazy. This can also be linked? Everything can be linked, right?"

Just as water friends were posting barrage and ridicule, one water friend’s words attracted everyone’s attention——

"Damn it, brothers, hurry up and watch the Taipei Road Scarf. The promotional video for Stardew Valley has been released. The old thief really means what he says. If he says he'll learn from you, he'll learn from you. Revenge doesn't take overnight!"

"What?" Wang Laoju was overjoyed when she heard this. She quickly took out her mobile phone and entered the Taiping Road official account.

【Taiping Road——】

[This is the festive season of the year. General Tiangong has been elected as the vice president of the Sichuan Provincial Game Association. It is time for everyone to celebrate. In order to thank all fans for their strong support]

[Taipingdao’s first casual farming management game, Stardew Valley, will be launched on the steam platform at 9 a.m. on the 10th]

[And from the game’s release date to New Year’s Day, the Taipingdao community will also organize a lottery for Uprising No. 1. Players who purchase Stardew Valley can obtain a lottery spot]

[Starting from now, the first promotional video of Stardew Valley is coming (click the link to view)]

After seeing Taiping Dao's scarves, Wang Laoju laughed loudly: "Farm Story from Fengqi Games will be released at 9am on the 10th, and Stardew Valley from Taipingdao will also be released at 9am on the 10th."

"General, you're not satisfied yet. Not only did you release a trailer for the game today, you also held a lucky draw. Do you think Fengqi Games is not dying fast enough?"

Wang Laoju clicked on the link and couldn't wait to check out the trailer for Stardew Valley.

The computer screen immediately fell into a white state. With the sound of the mouse clicking, the game icon - Taipingdao appeared in the center.

The icon disappeared immediately, and the screen fell into darkness. In the darkness, a few lines of big words appeared.

[You want to move to Stardew Valley...]

[Start from scratch...]

[Turn your land into a prosperous farm...]

[Learn to live on the land...]

[Become a member of the local community...]

The characters were gradually swallowed by the light, and then a farm with weeds and trees appeared in the trailer.

The pixel people weeded and cut trees on the farm, reclaimed wasteland, sowed seeds, irrigated wells, harvested crops, and raised cattle and sheep.

Gradually, this desolate and dilapidated farm, in the hands of the pixel people, regained its vitality and became an enviable farm.

These scenes show the farming elements of Stardew Valley vividly, making the farming players fall into ecstasy and unable to extricate themselves.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg of Stardew Valley, the screen jumps.

The pixel man leaves the farm, mines in the mine, fishes by the river, rides a horse through the streets, harvests crab cages by the sea, and kills slimes in the mine.

Mining, planting, fishing, breeding, fighting, manufacturing, all kinds of game elements are gathered in the small pixel game of Stardew Valley, but they do not seem to be inconsistent at all, but make players call it awesome.

From the spring with grass and warblers to the hot summer.

From the fruitful autumn to the snowy winter.

The flow of the four seasons of Stardew Valley appears in front of the players one by one.

Community sacrifice!

Sewer!

Mage Tower!

The information points that have just emerged reveal that this Stardew Valley is not as simple as it seems.

But when the players were about to get to the bottom of the matter, the trailer came to an end.

Amidst the mountains and ridges, the five big characters of Stardew Valley seemed to have infinite magic, making people fascinated.

In the comment area of ​​the trailer, you can see the messages of farming players mixed with pain and excitement everywhere below -

"I will not be able to play Stardew Valley in my lifetime, I will die with my eyes wide open!"

"Are you kidding me? If the foreigners next door see it, they will think I look down on you! What do you mean they are all the same? Who can watch this trailer? Send another one, one for each person!"

"Why do I feel that Stardew Valley is not just about farming, there are still many mysteries waiting for me to uncover, this feeling is so cool!"

"Electronic Yang Wei? Screw you! After watching the trailer, my electronic Yang Wei is directly healed, now I am Cyber ​​Optimus Prime!"

Wang Laoju excitedly slammed the table: "I'm sure to eat Stardew Valley, even Jesus can't keep it, I said!"
