Almighty Game Designer (Almighty Video Game Designer)

Chapter 784: Preparing for the design competition (fo

The design competition organized by Chen Mo is twice a year, in each year of March, and in the graduation season in July.

The design competition for the July season is for all students, and all students with college or higher can sign up.

The design competition in March is mainly for designers in the industry. Whether it is an independent designer or a designer of other companies, you can sign up.

The list of participants will be reviewed initially. After screening out the non-compliant participants, the other contestants will select the best designers after the preliminary, rematch and finals.

The preliminary rounds are distributed in more than 20 major cities across the country, and the rematch and finals are in the Imperial Capital. This year's competition, Chen Mo, considered renting a venue in the Imperial Capital. After the completion of the new headquarters next year, he can go to the new headquarters.

These two times are also considered. In July, the graduates just graduated, and they are still looking for work. In March, the IT industry will have a routine departure, and many capable designers will choose. In this time, find another way out.

Moreover, the two times are staggered, which also guarantees the fairness of the competition. The graduates will not be mixed with the senior designers in the industry.

Different from the previous competitions, the designers will know the specific topics of the competition when they arrive at the scene, and write the design draft and live production on the spot. If it is a very large game, you can also write only a more detailed design concept draft. If the judges are interested in the concept draft, they can continue to make it later.

In the semi-finals and finals, designers will be designing games in official venues that may last for a week or even a month, enough for them to develop medium or even large games.

The judges on these design competitions are some of the senior independent designers on the Thunder game platform, such as Li Feng, Zhou Haibin, Qiu Hengyang and so on.

These designers have been working with Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform for a long time, have their own representative works, and are very happy to participate in this game design competition. On the one hand, he and Chen Mo together made some contributions to the development of the entire game industry, on the other hand, they also showed their faces in front of the public. After all, this game design competition may be broadcast live, many players and game enthusiasts across the country. People in the industry will look at it.

......

The specific rules of the game will be formulated in detail, but Chen Mo's idea is very clear, that is, the Thunder's interactive entertainment game design competition has become the largest, most fair, professional and prospective design competition in China.

He hopes that this design competition will bring out the outstanding graduates who want to enter the game industry, as well as the outstanding independent designers in the industry. This design competition will ignite people's enthusiasm for the game industry, and also can be used as a large-scale recruitment for Thunder. Will exist.

As for the rewards of the competition, it is naturally the most generous.

In addition to the regular prizes and prizes, all the designers who entered the finals, Chen Mo will look at them one by one, and decide who to send invitations.

Of course, there are many senior designers in the competition as judges. They have their own judgments on the works, and there will be corresponding rules in the competition. Chen Mo’s preference is independent of all the judges. A designer is not optimistic even if it is judged by all the judges, but as long as Chen Mo feels ok.

These designers, who are being looked at by Chen Mo, can choose their own, join the Thunder to become an employee, or become an independent game designer, and cooperate with the Thunder game platform.

These two options have their own advantages and disadvantages. As an independent designer, they will be very unstable in income, but they can design their own games. The Thunder game platform will have a special recommendation mechanism for these people, so that more players can understand these designers and them. s work.

Both the Thunder and the entertainment staff, as well as the independent game designers who have been recognized by Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform, can gain a place in the new headquarters of Thunder Entertainment.

This is also paving the way for Chen Mo's future planning.

So far, Chen Mo's team has remained at a relatively small scale. When he makes the game, he also chooses the best choice according to the team's situation.

However, future games will inevitably move to a larger scale.

In terms of the size of the office space of the new headquarters, the existing Thunder and Mutual Entertainment staff may not be filled with one-tenth of a large layer, and the rest is available for expansion.

In the future, Chen Mo may develop a vast world and even a multi-collection of many worlds.

For example, in some networks, players can freely shuttle in many worlds. Each world has different missions and mysteries. All the worlds have a unified will to control...

Obviously, no matter how complicated and huge the game is, it is designed by the designer one by one. It is made by the whole R&D team little by little, without any possibility of opportunism.

If you want to develop such a game, Chen Mo can't complete all the world by himself. This requires an incomparably large R&D team to take care of the various parts in order to be really good.

Therefore, Chen Mo is now recruiting these outstanding designers, just to prepare for the future. If you want to design this kind of "infinite stream" game world independently, then these excellent designers can each be responsible for a world. Chen Mo only needs to check the final ones and screen them one by one.

Even if these large games are not produced in the short term, these designers can develop their own works, and it is not delayed.

......

This is why, at present, only Chen Mo has the qualification to hold such a large-scale game design competition.

Because of the appeal.

At present, no one in China can reach Chen Mo’s appeal.

Chen Mo has had successful works in various game fields, and has done sports games all over the world. He has also done fine vr games and won the best of the year. For other designers, Chen Mo is the strongest designer in China. At the same time, Thunder has enough funds for mutual entertainment, and also has powerful channels. It is self-evident that there is a large number of players.

After roughly finalizing the rules of the game design competition, it is almost possible to start warming up.

The year after March is not held for the time being, because the rules for the designers of the industry are more complicated and the preparation time is not enough.

Thunder's first game design competition is scheduled for next July, but before that, you can release the wind in advance, so that those who are interested in participating in the game will prepare in advance, and this game design competition will be regarded as graduation. One of the choices of life after.
