Chapter 118 I'm Coming (Part 3)

Plagiarism is not uncommon in the game industry.

Many games even copy and copy a classic, which has become a milestone in the history of games

As for plagiarism, in many cases, as long as it is not the direct use of code, original painting, modeling, etc., the reference in gameplay will generally not be recognized as plagiarism in law.

In the past year, there have been countless plagiarism incidents, but few of them were actually judged as plagiarism by the court.

Tianyi also plagiarized a lot, or in other words, they started their business by plagiarism.

They have many experienced planners. Based on the core of the game shown in other game trial versions, these people can speculate the producer's idea through clues and deduce the remaining gameplay of the game.

Even if there is only a beta version, or even a few minutes demo, they can see the core fun of the game and derive more other ways to play.

Through the brainpower advantage brought by a lot of planning, it can even make other people's core gameplay more interesting, and expand the relevant influence through capital publicity, and finally achieve the absurdity of plagiarism and death of the original.

Afterwards, Tianyi would use the other party's corpse as an example, packaging the original clone as a competition, so as to cover up his past.

In addition, it has a big advantage, that is, they have rich art and program resources.

After all, Tianyi is a decades-old factory, and the company has been laying out 3D for a long time, and has accumulated a large amount of art resources and 3D technology.

There are also a large number of reusable resources in the huge art library, and these resources include Chinese and Western, classical and modern. These years of accumulation are the foundation of a huge game company, which can greatly reduce their art costs.

In addition, Tianyi also has a big killer that is currently being tested.

It is the AI ​​program module.

There are dedicated AI programmers inside Tianyi. They continuously feed various codes to the AI ​​program. The final result is that as long as the plan is written according to the specified specifications, the program will automatically meet more than 80% of the work.

Although it still cannot replace programmers, it can directly reduce the workload of the program by 60%, and there will be almost no bugs afterwards.

Thinking about the company's existing resources in his mind, flipping through the information provided by the product operation, Zhang Ping's brain was running fast.

Not long after, he used the existing information to conceive in his mind the approximate cost of copying "Dark Builder" and the future of this game.

By cooperating to build different buildings and resist the threat of the dark tide, the time for each battle can be very short. This fast-paced game is very suitable for the current market.

The cooperative mode will have some light social attributes. The voice can be turned on during the game, but the voice communication is turned off by default, which avoids the existence of stress monsters and also meets the light social needs of players.

The gameplay of the game is simple, but the feedback from the market is very good. Through anonymous questionnaires, product operations found that this game has a good reputation, but some players also have some criticisms of the pixel style.

Then, by optimizing the art and grafting some payment elements and other function points, it is very possible to achieve a game with a monthly revenue of over 100 million.

Looking at Kong Kong, Zhang Ping felt that it was not too late for the other party to wake up.

He's a game producer who makes money, not a producer who makes good games.

Recently, Tianyi head office has released several good games, and the response among the player groups is quite good, which belongs to the type of applause and blockbusters.

In comparison, the Rongcheng branch, which was once expected to be high, has not performed well recently.

In addition, the producer of Feixiang Studio announced his retirement before, which made him quite stressed. He urgently needs some good games to appear, to boost morale, and to tell his superiors that they are also working hard.

Therefore, although plagiarism is not a glorious thing, especially when the target of plagiarism is an independent game, as long as the plagiarism is successful enough and the opponent is completely compared, then the player will only remember the winner in the end, and the loser is unworthy have a name.

Patting Kong Kong on the shoulder, Zhang Ping said, "Go ahead and do it boldly, the company supports you."

After a pause, Zhang Ping continued: "But if it fails, then someone has to take the blame for this matter. Do you understand what I mean?"

Nodded empty.

As a producer who often lets others take the blame, he certainly knows how big the blame he will face if he fails.

This will be a big gamble on his past reputation.

It is still too late to get out now, but he is used to sitting on the throne and calling the wind and rain in his studio, living the same life as the Tu Emperor.

The taste of power is better than anything else, and once you get it, you can never forget it.

Tianyi's reaction speed was extremely fast.

In the morning, it was decided to start the project, and in the afternoon, the empty studio was reorganized.

A group of procedural artists and planners who have been tested and able to accept 007 were transferred to serve as members of the studio.

The outsourcing of the game was full, and Tianyi once again went all out for a project, and began to produce new games non-stop at an almost crazy speed.

The code of the game is not complicated. Although the code of "Dark Builder" has not been cracked through reverse engineering, the code and art resources of "King's Dungeon" are ready-made. Just re-skin the model and adjust the camera angle. A similar effect can be created.

And when the programmers were working crazy overtime on art and planning, Kong Kong was not idle.

He began to investigate the relevant gameplay of "Dark Builder". He played the content of the trial version several times a day, and every time he had new ideas.

What a genius producer.

The other party's ideas are unconstrained, but eclectic. The producer does not feel like a mature producer, but the things he made are full of aura, which makes Kong Kong feel that the other party is definitely another genius after Fangcheng.

But to his dissatisfaction, all he got was a trial version.

This game has not been officially released, but only spread in private. The living immortals who made the game seem not interested in making money from the game, and made the game just out of love.

The official version only appeared once, and according to interview records, the official version has not been officially circulated, but the addition of magic weapons makes the game very interesting.

After thinking for a while, Kong Kong still wanted to know what the so-called magic weapon looked like.

Although there is no official version on the market now, he knows that someone will definitely have it.

Three days later, Lao Wang said that a special guest came to the live broadcast room of the game.

At that time, Lao Wang was broadcasting a niche game.

This game is clearly a horror game, but during the live broadcast, there were almost no high-energy warnings in the barrage, and the players were also very happy. Old Wang even laughed a few times, and there was a cheerful atmosphere everywhere.

The game's author has a great idea, he seems to have gotten tired of the usual ghosts and replaced them with aliens.

The villain's reason for hurting people is packaged as aliens wanting to arrest people for experiments, and the villain's elusive behavior is also packaged as aliens' teleportation.

But the problem is that the sound effects of aliens in this game are all made by the creator himself.

When nothing is changed, the sound of the aliens attacking sounds like a screaming chicken. Every time they hear it, Lao Wang and Xiao Zhao can't help laughing wildly.

After the audience prompted, Lao Wang replaced the sound effect, but the effect was even more explosive.

Because he replaced it with "Good Luck".

Whenever aliens appear, the cheerful "Good Luck" will sound in the live broadcast room. This makes a low-quality horror game bring an unprecedented festive atmosphere that is about to celebrate the New Year.

After finishing the game with difficulty, Pharaoh checked the time and thought he should take a rest.

Today is a working day, and there are not many people in the studio. Most people are too busy playing the Dark Builder demo to watch him.

So Pharaoh maintained his popularity for a while, and then he was ready to go.

But at this moment, a small spaceship flew by, and the screen was full of special effects. A local tycoon appeared at this time and sent a big gift over.

Saw small spaceships flying by. Lao Wang jumped up directly, pulled the microphone and said excitedly: "Oh, thank you for the small spaceship that Lao Tie sent. Thank you boss, the boss is generous."

However, after looking at the other party's ID, Lao Wang found that this ID seemed to be new, and he had never seen it before.

Just when Lao Wang was hesitating, the other party suddenly sent a private message.

[Mr. Wang, I like your live broadcast very much, and I watch every episode of your complaints, and I benefit a lot every time. 】

The other party praised him as soon as he came up, which made Lao Wang a little happy, but also a little alert.

It shouldn't be that the old fans are playing tricks on themselves, after all, those guys are about to go to the sky after giving rewards.

After deliberating his words, Pharaoh replied carefully and politely: [Thank you for the compliment, thank you for your little spaceship. 】

[You're welcome, Mr. Wang, you deserve it. In fact, I have another kind request. I especially like the game you broadcast live before, "Dark Builder". But you also know that all the games that have been circulating in the market recently are trial versions. So I want to ask, can you send me the official version and let me play for a while? I promise that I will only play this game alone, and it will never be rumored. 】

Facing the other party's request, Lao Wang immediately replied: [Sorry, that game belongs to a friend of mine, and that friend took care of me, so don't spread it out for now. 】

[But Mr. Wang, I really want to play, please. Are you still short of small spaceships? I can reward as many as I want. 】

Seeing the other party's sincere attitude, Pharaoh instantly became alert.

Obviously wait another ten days to play the official version, why is the other party suddenly so eager at this time?

He knew that there would be local tyrants spending a lot of money on the game, but that kind of thing was basically a legend.

Besides, you really want to play so much, why don't you contact the author directly, what do you mean by me?

If you don't have anything to show your courtesy, you can either rape or steal.

Lao Wang said that the game quickly found the administrator, and immediately sealed up the small spaceship he received after reporting the incident.

Then, he contacted other anchors and asked them not to spread the official version between them.

After receiving a confirmed reply, he once again contacted the person who tipped him by private message:

[I don't know who you are, nor what purpose you have. My apologies if I made a mistake. But your constant request for the official version of the behavior, I feel very wrong. Although my old Wang likes money, he is not someone who can do nothing for money. 】

[I have sealed the chat records between us, and I reserve the right to use legal weapons to protect my rights. I don't know what you want to do, but please don't. Finally, I apologize if I got something wrong. 】

After replying, Pharaoh saw that the other party's input box had been typing, but he didn't say a word in the end.

Although he didn't know the real purpose of the other party, Lao Wang felt that he had done the right thing.

Taking a breath, he immediately contacted the living immortal and told him the whole thing.

Seeing the news from the game that Lao Wang said, the living immortal replied after a while: [Thank you, I got it. 】

【polite. 】

After replying, Pharaoh was relieved

Old Wang said that the game is not so kind, he is just keeping the promise between himself and the living immortal, even if he loses tens of thousands of yuan because of it, it doesn't matter.

Even tens of thousands of dollars...

Tens of thousands of dollars...

Banging his head on the table, Old Wang felt a little silly.

That's tens of thousands of dollars!

But if there is a next time, Pharaoh should still do this.

At the other end of the network cable, Fang Cheng also had a whim and made a fortune for himself.

His knowledge of divination has never been very deep. At this time, it can only be calculated that this matter is probably related to Tianyi's emptiness.

Counting again, he found that the result this time was calm, no matter what happened, just ignore it.

So, he stopped caring about those things and continued to meditate.

In Kong Kong's studio, Kong Kong, who knew he was going to fail, sighed.

Lao Wang said that the game is a bit greedy for money. He thought that he could get the official version by tipping, but he didn't expect it to be impossible.

But it doesn't matter, he can probably guess the usage of the magic weapon, and add the usage of the magic weapon into his game.

Not only that, he will also add more interesting designs.

Bloodlines, pets, mythical beasts, equipment, forging...

He released all these previous payment points, and reduced the payment depth, so that players can get strong feedback after micro krypton.

In terms of numerical values, he made a lot of adjustments to the numerical planning, so that the first three days of this game will definitely make players happy.

Operational activities are ready, and 15 days of high-load operation is enough for them to build a preliminary game model and allow players to enjoy the boundless fun of the game.

In subsequent versions, they will iteratively develop the game step by step, so that players will have a new experience every week.

After everything was ready, Kongkong Studio's comeback work "Dark Guardian" was released.

Although it only took fifteen days, the quality of this game has reached the best level they can achieve in all aspects. The overwhelming publicity instantly brought this game to the eyes of the players, allowing them to enjoy it at any time. See this game.

Compared with "Dark Guardian", the object it draws on, "Dark Builder" is very simple.

It's not even officially on sale, just a sentence on its newly built official website.

"I am coming."

Thank you for the 200 point reward of Monotony Monotone 灬, and the 100 point reward of Starry Sky.

I will release the second update owed to Brother Qiu tonight, but it may be later, if you can’t wait, you can watch it tomorrow morning.
