Chapter 181 Director: MiiaShen!

   After returning home!

   After a simple dinner, Shen Miaomiao dragged Gu Sheng into the studio:

   "Let's get started! I can't wait!"

  For Shen Miaomiao, this was a brand new life experience.

  From an intern president who knows nothing about games to now the chief designer of a game Director!

  Before, at the end of the game, she frequently saw Lao Gu's name on the scene.

   It's like a movie.

  On the huge screen, Lao Gu's name occupies the exclusive space!

  【Director: SamGu】

  The super high sense of ritual made Shen Miaomiao feel extremely excited every time she saw this scene!

   is really handsome!

   Now, I have this opportunity too!

  When thinking of the words [Director: Miia Shen] appearing on the screen in the future, Shen Miaomiao was really excited!

  Looking at the excited little Nezha, Gu Sheng couldn't laugh or cry:

   "We don't have a project yet, what should we start with? We shouldn't set up a project first."

   "Oh yes, project approval,"

  Shen Miaomiao rested her chin with her hands, put her elbows on the table and meditated hard, a pair of white and tender feet were dangling around with slippers hooked on her, her big eyes turned straight:

   "Then what kind of game should we make?"

  Old Gu said that the size of the game should not be too large, and it should be released on the PC platform.

   Then you need to make the game form a little more ingenious, so that it is possible to cause topicality.

   It is best to use the type produced by Golden Wind before, and strive to win steadily.

  Shen Miaomiao is just off-line, she is not stupid, especially when she is serious.

  The most important thing is that since the establishment of Golden Wind, she has made more than ten games. She has not accumulated much experience in losing money. Does she not know the way to make money?

   "How about... pixel style?"

  Chief designer Shen Miaomiao quickly gave her own answer!

   "Oh? Not bad, tell me what you think?"

  Gu Cheng hugged his shoulders, stretched out his hand to motion for Shen Miaomiao to explain the reason.

  What ideas does Shen Miaomiao have!

   She was simply backstabbed too hard by the game "Vampire Survivor" back then!

   It has left a psychological shadow on her!

  It is obviously an unpopular style, but she was directed like a 'genius' blindly. Under the adjustment and production of Lao Gu, it abruptly created a hit style!

   Not only has the 'pixel style' returned to the public's view, even until now, there are still many fledgling small studios who are re-enacting the 'vampire-like' gameplay!

  Now, Golden Wind is once again making a pixel game, which will definitely cause a wave of enthusiasm!

  The most important thing is that the pixel style is small in size, which meets the requirements of Lao Gu.

   "I just think "Vampire Survivor" was too successful back then, and it was easy to control the weight,"

  Shen Miaomiao shrugged and said:

   "How about we make a second part?"

  The game that brought Golden Wind to the fore and Gu Sheng won the title of "Supernova" is now about to release its second game.

  Shen Miaomiao thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and she would definitely make money.

However.

  Gu Sheng shook his head: "The idea of ​​pixel wind is okay, but the second part of Vampire...isn't so good."

  There are too many homogeneous games on the market today.

   is not a good choice.

  Hearing this, Shen Miaomiao was also shocked.

Oh, right!

   I can't think about making money!

  Because according to the previous routine, only when I try to make the game lose money, will I be inspired, always take care of myself, and become an excellent designer who plays crookedly!

  Think of it!

  Shen Miaomiao began to diverge her thinking.

  How can a pixel wind lose money?

   First of all, what are the characteristics of pixel style?

   paste.

   To put it nicely, it is streamlined.

  So in this high blur situation, which game type is the worst to perform?

   Action!

   There was a flash of inspiration in Shen Miaomiao's mind.

  Because in this art style, the characters are composed of pixel blocks, so the expressiveness of the action is definitely not as strong as the conventional style!

  But, just about to speak!

  Shen Miaomiao thought again, no way!

  Because in the mainstream PC game market today, the two most popular game types are ACT (action) and MOBA (multiplayer online tactical arena).

  Pixel wind ACT games seem to be popular.

  I better think of a game type that is so cold that it makes people shiver.

  So with the pixel art style, besides the action, what's not good about it?

  Shen Miaomiao rolled her eyes and raised her eyebrows.

expression.

  Character expressions.

  Because of the blurry picture, the main characters in pixel-style games are generally expressionless, and it is difficult to express emotions.

  Emotions are related to emotions, and game emotions are driven by the storyline of the game.

so-! !

Snapped!

  Shen Miaomiao clapped her hands!

   Got it!

   "Let's make a pixel-style role-playing game!"

Wow!

   After speaking, Shen Miaomiao herself felt scared!

  This **** has to be planned to make it popular and popular!

   Am I going a little too far?

However!

  I just thought of this!

  Seeing that Gu Sheng on the other side slapped him too!

Snapped!

   "Yeah! Great idea! Good good!"

  Gu Sheng nodded again and again:

   "Pixel wind story to RPG!"

   "That's a great idea!"

  Shen Miaomiao was terrified!

   in a cold sweat!

Why! Why! Why! What did I say? Did I mean that as long as I want to lose money sharply, Lao Gu, a scary whale, can make a lot of money? !

  Good boy, fortunately, my aunt is better!

   Otherwise, another trick!

   It's scary.

  Shen Miaomiao was afraid that Gu Sheng would die.

   Fortunately, it is a charity project this time, no longer calculating profit and loss!

  Hoo—

  I'm so awesome, I found the correct way to use Lao Gu.

  Shen Miaomiao gave herself a thumbs up in her heart.

   And Gu Sheng was also very satisfied with Shen Miaomiao's idea!

  First of all, the pixel-style game is not large in size, and the engineering volume is average. It is enough to hand it over to the outsourcing team, and it has no impact on the development of the escape project.

  Secondly, the production of this kind of game is not very difficult. Under his guidance, Shen Miaomiao is fully capable of it.

  Finally, the direction of the plot to RPG is determined.

   This type is really good.

  After all, for a novice like Nezha, neither the action design nor the perfect combat stats are something she can easily grasp.

  The setting of the plot direction just avoided this problem!

   This also means that as long as you perfect the plot, then this game will be successful in all likelihood!

  Think of it!

   Gu Sheng began to use his brain.

  Pixel style, RPG, plot-oriented, but also in line with the theme of charity.

   The answer seems to be on the horizon.

   "Okay, I probably know how to build a framework for you,"

   Gu Sheng smiled and said:

   "Give me two or three days."

  …

   Finalize the time!

  Next day!

  During breakfast, the project department ushered in a 'rare guest'.

  Following the opening of the big office door, Shen Miaomiao appeared poking her head holding fried dough sticks and soybean milk.

  Don't talk about others.

  Even Gu Sheng, who was eating and chatting with Lu Bian Da Jiang about the project, was taken aback!

   Instantly!

  The originally crowded project department was silent.

  Everyone widened their eyes and looked at Shen Miaomiao.

   "Uh...hey..."

  Shen Miaomiao was a little embarrassed by the sight, she grinned:

   "It's okay, you guys talk, I'm just here...to study."

good!

  Shen Miaomiao, who is about to start a new life experience, stayed up all night excitedly yesterday, like a primary school student about to go on a spring outing.

   Although cramping her feet temporarily does not allow her to become a senior industry insider in an instant.

  But the so-called sharpening the gun is not fast.

   Taking advantage of the three days that Lao Gu was working on the project, she also wanted to see what the daily game production work was like, and learn how to effectively communicate with the outsourcing team.

   After a brief silence!

   Seeing Gu Sheng stuff the fried dough stick into his mouth, he clapped his hands!

   "Welcome President Shen to visit the project department to observe and guide the work!"

   Next!

  Wow! !

   Thunderous applause!

  Everyone stood up and applauded to welcome Shen Miaomiao.

  However, it can be seen that everyone's welcome seems to be full of doubts.

  After all, the number of times the president came to the project department in the past was not even as many as the number of times he went to the leisure area to grab snacks!

  Why did you suddenly come to the project department today and look like you are stationed?

  Do you want to inspect work? Or do you want to monitor our usual work status?

  Everyone is confused.

but!

   This kind of doubt lasted for less than an hour.

  Because it's just after breakfast time is over!

  Shen Miaomiao went back to her office, brought a notebook and a pen, found a chair and sat behind Boss Gu, and began to observe and study, carefully taking notes!

   Hell!

  Lotus always came to learn!

  Everyone in the project department was shocked!

   It seems to see the cycads blooming and the sun rising to the west!

  Since Shen Miaomiao is their good boss and the company's mascot, no one dislikes her.

  So, while everyone was amazed, they were also excited!

  Just half a day!

  Shen Miaomiao learned the traditional art of the project department'swivel chair racing', and began to shuttle between the three major groups, receiving all the teachings from the elites of each group.

"The process of developing a game using an engine is actually the process of using a computer language to write game scripts and interact with various game objects, so generally speaking, we not only need to learn the computer language, but also to master the use and depth of the game engine. development, like the 'Fantasy 5' we've been using..."

  In the program group, Lu Bian, the chief program team leader, gave hands-on guidance and explained the role of the program group in the development process and the scope of work to Mr. Ou.

"...So generally speaking, the planning team is to transform the text in the planning case into the actual art style and presentation effect of the game. For example, the battle planner, he usually coordinates with the animators of the art team, and strives to let the animators complete the game. Do you understand Miao Miao-san when I say this about the expected combat moves and skill moves?"

  In the planning team, Sato stood beside Shen Miaomiao bent over, with his hands clinging to the line of his trousers, respectful.

"We usually coordinate with the planning team. Designing images according to the established art style and original concept art is the terminal of expressiveness, and it is the most direct link to the players. Generally speaking, the art team has the original art. Designer, scene design, character design, lighting design, special effects, UI, animator, character binding, animation CG, etc., and the division of labor they are responsible for is also different..."

  In the art group, deputy group leaders Jiang Shan and Yuki, one on the left and one on the right, were like two protectors, explaining to Shen Miaomiao.

  For a while, the atmosphere in the project department was extremely hot.

even!

   Thanks to Shen Miaomiao's arrival and her open-minded attitude towards learning, everyone's work efficiency has improved a lot!

  Because everyone knows that it is impossible for Mr. Ou to learn so many things in an instant.

  The current Ouzong is still in the stage of general understanding.

  So, in order to let Mr. Ou fully understand, everyone wants to advance the progress a little bit, so as to give her examples to explain what is going on here, and what is going on then, so that true knowledge can come from practice.

   And once this kind of enthusiasm rises, it is easy for people to forget the time.

   Not only everyone in the project department will forget the time, but even Shen Miaomiao herself will forget the time!

  Because in this process of constantly asking and solving problems, the sense of accomplishment will increase and gradually increase!

Of course.

  The main reason for this increasing sentiment is that this group of people like this industry and are full of hope.

   Moreover, the atmosphere in the project department is extremely harmonious, and the salary is really high!

   Earn a lot of money with like-minded friends in a sunrise industry you like!

  I believe it is difficult for someone to control himself from working overtime.

  As for Shen Miaomiao, she also had to record more than a dozen pages of notes almost every day, densely packed, even more serious than when she was in school!

  Although I have a headache every day when I go home, fortunately, I have Lao Gu.

  Gu Sheng can massage her head and answer her questions by the way, which is very useful.

   And in the process.

  Shen Miaomiao finally realized how complicated the development of a game is and how huge its structure is!

   At the same time, the admiration for Gu Sheng is also increasing day by day!

   So many departments, so many people, so many jobs!

  He was able to divide and coordinate all of them, and he was able to do a job with ease!

  This is not something that can be explained by saying "only one hand is familiar with you"!

  In addition to massive work experience, a multi-core Pentium CPU is also essential!

certainly!

besides!

  Shen Miaomiao is also more and more looking forward to the pixel game that she will be responsible for developing!

   In a blink of an eye!

  The lively three-day study time is over!

   And this day!

   When the two returned home, the first thing Shen Miaomiao did was to grab Gu Sheng, her big blingbling eyes shone brightly:

   "It's the third day! What about that?"

   Seeing little Nezha's impatient look, Gu Sheng intentionally teased her, pretending to be stupid: "What's the third day? Which one?"

   "That's it!"

  Shen Miaomiao raised her eyebrows:

"thick."

   "Thick..." Gu Sheng sat on the sofa and stretched his shoulders: "Dictionary?"

   "Oh no!" Shen Miaomiao consciously went around behind Gu Sheng and massaged his shoulders: "There are stories and settings in it?"

   "Story and setting..." Gu Sheng twisted his neck again: "A bound storybook?"

   "Not really!" Shen Miaomiao grinned her teeth, anxious: "What have I been learning these two days? Think again?"

   "Oh! Hi!" Gu Sheng slapped his hands, happy: "If you had said it earlier, I would have known it!"

   Talking!

   Gu Sheng pulled out a textbook from his bag and showed it to Shen Miaomiao behind him.

   It was a professional book that Gu Sheng read when he was still in school—"C++ from Beginner to Master"

   It's just that he erased the word "proficient" and replaced it with "into the soil".

  So, the book became - "C++ from entry to entry".

   "I can kill you!!"

  Shen Miaomiao became furious on the spot, stood behind Gu Sheng, and hooked his neck with her backhand:

   "You hand over the business plan to me—!!"

   "Hey hey hey—!!"

   Gu Sheng was strangled by the little Nezha, and seeing the situation was not good, he slapped the sofa to admit defeat.

  Press the remote control at the same time, the projection in the living room will drop:

   "Let go... Let go let go... I'm just kidding with you... There is a plan... The plan is coming..."

  嗡—

  Fixed with the projection screen lowered.

   click.

   Projection is turned on.

  The next second, a game cover appeared on the projection screen.

  Among the vast galaxy, a bright moon hangs high in the sky.

   Approaching the warm light emanating from the lighthouse, two embracing shadows are outlined.

   And next to the lighthouse, is the name of this charity game—

   "Tothemoon,"

  Gu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief and rubbed his neck:

   "To the Moon."
