Game Design: Is It Possible? CaiGou

Chapter 170 The Anchor Is Obedient, the Optimization Is Too Complicated, You Can't Grasp It (Please Subscribe)

The game plus education track was developed step by step by Cai Gou and Taiping Dao.

In the minds of players, Taipingdao is the well-deserved leader in the game plus education track.

Even this time, Cai Gou carried forward his style and did not choose to join the competition as a participating manufacturer, and even refused to be selected for major awards.

But since the start of the game plus education special exhibition, Taipingdao's Programmer's Promotion has firmly occupied the top spot in the sales rankings just by relying on the online event area as a traffic entrance.

Programmer's Promotion, a rare programming game, has become increasingly popular on the Internet.

Moreover, the difficulty of the game "Programmer's Promotion" is easy first and then difficult. Except for the first three levels, which are easier, the subsequent levels are increasingly difficult.

Many players, in front of the programmer promotion record level, really say——

On pins and needles!

Like a light on my back!

Like a lump in the throat!

I can understand every Chinese character in the mission prompt, but when combined together, it looks like Kennedy——

It’s confusing.

But in reality, the hanging rail is often located here.

One of the factions of the Yellow Turban Army, Truth, met the situation and immediately summoned his members to start conquering the programmer promotion record. He also joined forces with honorary elders such as Liuliu and others to start teaching live broadcasts.

The vast majority of the members of the Truth Society are students from major universities. When faced with programming games like Programmer Promotion, they often have an advantage over the Yellow Turban Army and the old guard.

Because of programmers’ promotions, the style of the game areas of major live streaming platforms has undergone an annual change.

The game area and study area have been transformed again.

The game area anchor was once again changed to a teaching anchor.

As an honorary elder of the Truth Society, Liuliu is naturally one of the best.

Douyu live broadcast platform, game area.

Liuliu wore a pair of glasses and explained seriously:

"Is programming difficult? Difficult! Is programming games difficult? It's actually not difficult!"

"At least in the game Programmer's Promotion, it can be seen from the difficulty that the old thief is holding back."

"But even so, because of the inherent difficulty of the programming elements of the programming game itself, this game still has a high entry barrier."

"Then how do we use programmers' thinking methods and programming languages ​​to pass the programmer promotion record?"

"This is what we need to talk about in the next series of courses on programmer promotion!"

"Okay, enough chatter, let's officially start today's class."

In Liuliu's live broadcast room, a group of water friends took notebooks to record.

This scene not only looks weird in style, but also quite abstract.

But since Taipingdao made its name in the game industry, which game has not been like this?

Most water friends are already used to it.

"Hello teacher……"

"Teacher Liuliu...hehe, teacher!"

"Teacher and all, I like it the most!"

"Six fruits are fragrant!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu If I can pass the programmer promotion test, I will be willing to drive a luxury car and live in a mansion."

"Upstairs, how come you can't even take food?"

"I'm different. If I can pass the programmer promotion story, I'm willing to marry Liuliu and Bobo!"

"He~tui! Whoever has yellow urine, wake it up!"

"Come on, not only do I have yellow urine, I also have diabetes!"

"No, we can't let it taste any sweetness!"

The old employees were chattering a lot, and the barrage gradually subsided, and they began to listen carefully.

[Level 16: Absolute positive energy]

【Ha ha! A positive attitude is sure to increase productivity! 】

[So now everyone must have a positive attitude - smile! 】

[The management is watching you! 】

When Liuliu saw what the old employee said, he chuckled:

"That last sentence is so abstract. Big Brother is watching you, the programmer version, right?"

[Send everything in INBOX to OUTBX. However, if it is a negative number, please remove its negative sign first]

Specific tasks have been promulgated.

There are a bunch of characters on the input desktop of this house——

【3】【-7】【-3】【0】【-8】【-7】【……】

"The meaning of this level is that we send the characters in INBOX to OUTBX, but the negative sign must be removed first."

"Then our actual task for this level is to use the commands unlocked at this stage of the game to write a program to remove the negative sign from the characters."

Liuliu said confidently: "It's actually very simple. For example, this [-7] minus [-7], does it become [-7] plus [7], and finally get [0], and [0] Then subtract [-7], which is actually [0] plus [7]. Is the negative sign completed?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the live broadcast room suddenly realized -

"I see!"

"It's so simple?"

"Master, I understand!"

"Hahahaha, Master Dao, I'm done!"

"Sodesga!"

"interesting!"

"I just want to kiss, I can't learn at all..."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Liuliu explained in simple terms while operating. As each program started to run, each level was successfully passed.

The popularity of programmers being promoted has also been noticed by the admissions offices of major universities.

Most of the internal members of the Yellow Turban Truth Society are college students from various universities.

After the Admissions Office contacted the Truth Society, the two parties hit it off.

The Admissions Office took advantage of the popularity and traffic of the Truth Society and took advantage of the summer college enrollment period to promote its own colleges to the outside world.

The Truth Society used major official live broadcast rooms to start explaining programmers' promotion stories and attract fans to grow.

When players click on the official or unofficial promotional live broadcast rooms of major universities, they can often see students and even professors explaining the programmer promotion story in simple and easy-to-understand live broadcasts. Naturally, they will also use every detail to promote the advantages of their own universities.

The publicity effect was unexpectedly good.

Since then, the entire game plus education special exhibition competition period.

Although Taipingdao programmers were promoted, they did not participate in the exhibition activities in the offline exhibition hall.

But the operation of the Truth Society and the Admissions Office unexpectedly made Programmer's Promotion the most popular programming game this summer.

Not only that, other colleges and universities saw that the publicity effect of the live broadcast game in the admissions live broadcast room was so good, and they followed suit one after another. What's more, they began to draw parallels——

The admissions live broadcast room of the University of Aeronautics and Astronautics began to broadcast the Kerbal Space Program.

The admissions live broadcast room of the University of Urban Planning began to live broadcast the city skyline.

Even the niche major of cryptography has begun to broadcast introductory manuals on cryptography.

Thanks to the unremitting publicity of major universities, the sales of Taipingdao's series of games have once again steadily increased.

Programmer's Promotion is a programming game that purely belongs to——

A layman can't understand it, but an expert can watch it.

After all, in the real world——

Few programmers would choose to relax after get off work and code when they are too tired from coding at work.

This is too abstract!

Because when hobbies become jobs, programmers face programming games related to their professional content, just like facing their own yellow-faced women, and it is really difficult to stand up.

However, programmers from big companies all like to watch the live broadcast of the game Programmer's Promotion, especially watching amateur anchors play Programmer's Promotion.

This trend has even begun to spread in large factories, forming a trend among programmers.

After a hard day's work on the 996 code, many programmers invariably hold their mobile phones and watch with relish the live broadcasts of the promotion stories of programmers who have never been in the industry.

After all, how much fun is it to watch amateurs make jokes?

"Hahahaha, I can write this program better than him even with my feet!"

"No, the programming instructions for programmer promotion have been quite simplified. Let's use our brains!"

"Hahahahaha - grass (a plant)!"

Just as a group of water friends watched the little anchor struggling to reach the twentieth level, the program he wrote ended up only reaching one star.

"No! I have obsessive-compulsive disorder..." the little anchor waved his hand decisively:

"I will definitely get two stars for this level. I didn't perform well just now. Let's do it again now!"

Most of the water friends in the live broadcast room didn't pay much attention.

But the programmer professional was excited when he heard this, and quickly sent a barrage to persuade him——

"Don't, don't touch this program, don't optimize it!"

"As long as you can run, what are you optimizing for?"

"Anchor like you...you still say that you have two-star obsessive-compulsive disorder? I'm embarrassed..."

"Anchor is obedient, the water for optimization is too deep, you can't grasp it!"

result……

It’s okay for a small anchor not to optimize, but optimizing is worse than not optimizing!

"Look, let me just say it?"

"Look, look, what did we say? This is called not listening to the old man's words, and you will suffer the consequences!"

"Alas... Anchor, keep these words in mind - as long as you can run!"

"That's right, don't worry about how the program runs. As long as it can run, don't move!"

While everyone was having a heated discussion, a water friend who came to visit said excitedly——

"Everyone, go to the Liuliu live broadcast room. Liuliu is about to reach the finale!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked. Everyone came to their senses and quickly rushed into Liuliu's live broadcast room.

"Airborne successfully!"

"Yangtze River, Yangtze River, I am Huang He, I am Huang He, please answer if you hear me!"

"Huang He? The director of your tannery factory? Return Huang He!"

“What’s the ending of the programmer’s promotion story?”

"Don't tell me, this character's hair is quite thin!"

"Programmer: Slander, you are slandering me!"

Liuliu saw so many people pouring into the live broadcast room and said:

"There are many new water friends here, let me say a few more words——"

"Today is the last lesson of the programmer promotion story. If anyone wants to watch the previous videos, you can go to my homepage or enter the blogger area of ​​Taipingdao. There is also detailed strategy information within the Truth Society. Inquire."

"Okay, now let's take a look at the last level of the programmer's promotion story, what happens!"

[Hey, look at this brand new office! 】

[We have truly climbed to the higher rungs of the corporate ladder together! 】

[Thank you, my supervision skills are really handy! 】

【Your skills are pretty good too! 】

[No matter what skills you use there! 】

【So...are you ready? 】

Liuliu smiled and said: "Look, this old employee who is supervising has completely lost his hair in the middle!"

Friends in the live broadcast room took a look and found that it was indeed the case——

"Mediterranean Full Form - Start!"

"Tsk tsk, what a true portrayal of a programmer!"

"This is fucked up!"

"The characters we play aren't much better..."

"This damn sense of immersion..."

[For each zero-ending string in the INBOX, sort its contents from the smallest to the largest, and then put the result into the OUTBOX. Do this for each string! ]

Liu Liu carefully observed that in the end, the input table on the left side of the house was filled with characters such as

[93][26][41][0][T][H][...] in order.

On the floor in the center of the house, there was a huge character carpet, on which each character space was arranged in order from [0] to [24], and there was a character [0] placed alone in the lower right corner of the carpet.

After seeing this task and the requirements, most of the players were a little confused, but the players with programming-related majors became interested.

However, for this kind of task, it is difficult for ordinary programmers to draw the final conclusion just by simulating it in their minds.

Liu Liu arranged the instructions while explaining them, trying to use the most simple and easy-to-understand language to let more players understand what she was talking about.

After a while, the program started running and finally got full star clearance.

[Ranking floor: 41st year]

[Challenge volume: Use no more than 34 commands (completed)]

[Challenge speed: No more than 714 steps on average (completed)]

"Hahahaha, I finally cleared the game successfully!"

"Sprinkle flowers, sprinkle flowers!"

"It's not easy! It's really not easy!"

"Woo woo woo... The annual game zone lecture time is finally over!"

After witnessing Liu Liu's teaching archive clearance in the live broadcast room, a group of water friends cheered one by one, as if they had cleared the game themselves.

Liu Liu smiled and then clicked the mouse to complete it.

As the screen dimmed, two lines of big words popped up--

[Program ended, congratulations! ]

[42nd year]

Then, in the expectation of a group of water friends, the player came to the tea room again.

An abstract Q-version doll said to the protagonist:

"Congratulations, you have become a priceless treasure who truly obeys orders!"

Seeing this, Liu Liu teased: "This person should be the boss..."

The fans asked——

"Why do you think so?"

"Look at his hair, not only is it not bald, but it is thick..."

After Liu Liu's reminder, the fans also reacted.

Yes!

We have already reached the tea room on the top floor!

But your hair is so thick!

You say you are not the boss, who would believe it?

What's going on...

The boss has appeared in person?

Is this a conversation before promotion and salary increase?

Am I going to the peak of my life?

Friends, please continue to read on——

The boss said:

"Yes, don't worry, you have kept your job, we replaced you with this electronic box!"

"It's called——[Computer]. It edits some simple instructions, which are called programs. When it is processing, it has a small piece of memory for storing data, just like the tiles on the ground."

"It has input and output. These simple instructions can basically calculate everything you can think of through infinite possible combinations. This is a truly efficient worker who does not need sleep. Everything has changed because of this!"

"Please pack up your things and go enjoy what you do! Congratulations!"
