Game Design: It is Very Simple For You To Fill In?

Chapter 401 The potential of the empire should be endless!

Konami and others arrived belatedly, and when they arrived, the place was already full of people.

Different from the structure of the screening hall, people here sit casually in a hall. Sofas with stairs downwards are placed randomly. Fruit plates and desserts are placed next to each sofa. Warm lights envelope the entire private room. The environment is much better than before.

"Welcome, everyone." Ye Feng looked at the people behind him with a smile. He didn't blame them too much.

 For some established game manufacturers, it is necessary to figure out their identities. Ye Feng was not surprised by what happened to them. All this was within his expectation.

 But among the people who came here, there was only one person whom Ye Feng did not expect.

 That is the person in charge of yogame, Fujifeng.

 Seeing him come in, everyone's attention was focused on him.

 The friction between Ye Feng and Yogame can be said to have been there from the beginning, and has never been resolved.

 Ye Feng did not take any retaliatory measures afterwards, but the players voluntarily rejected the games on the Yogame platform.

The original game that imitated Digg and Ascension has been taken off the shelves. Every time a new player enters the pit of the budding game, the old players will take the trouble to tell them a story about various skin jars.

Ye Feng just glanced at him and then withdrew his gaze.

“Thank you for your recognition of Meiya, and thank you for your willingness to give Meiya an opportunity to organize such an event.” Ye Feng sat at the main seat and took the lead in speaking.

Teng Feng sat down and said nothing. From time to time, he raised his eyes to look at Ye Feng. His rise was so fast that he couldn't react at all. The gaming world had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Even some game design big guys are still a little bit unable to accept Ye Feng becoming a leader in the game industry, let alone him.

The battle between Sony and Weiruan is of a commercial nature and does not involve any personal emotions. Putting aside commercial disputes, there is not much grudge between them.

 But he was different from Ye Feng. He had offended Ye Feng so much from the beginning that he didn't even have any room for redemption.

 When he returned from his dream at midnight, he was thinking about how great it would be if he had not offended Ye Feng.

If Ye Feng had not been offended at the beginning, it would be them who would replace Sony and Weisoft as the world's number one gaming platform.

 But in this world, there is no if.

“This time we are launching such a designer gathering salon, mainly for everyone to discuss the relevant knowledge and skills of game design, as well as some design experiences... Our goal is to enable everyone to create bigger and better games in the future. game."

"Mr. Black Star, I am the designer who made the empire and conquest simulation construction game before. Can you tell me how to improve this game?" The manufacturers sitting here will be greeted by the staff when they enter the door. Send it to a tablet, which is connected to the exclusive network of the Game Design Salon. This is a specially designed and produced app. Major manufacturers can describe their ideas, communicate, and ask and answer questions in the form of patterns on a common page. .

 You can also show some of your own games and your own ideas. When expressing problems, you can draw some vague concept diagrams to facilitate people's understanding.

The manufacturer speaking now is the one who asked the question at the time. He showed his game page and sent several pieces of background data from his mobile phone.

 This game of empires and conquests has very good sales and high praise rates, but its shortcomings are also obvious, that is, players’ game time is too short, and it is easy for players to lose interest in the game as they conquer again and again.

Everyone turned to the background on their tablets and took a look at the game's comments.

  It can be seen that the design team is very attentive, and the game's praise rate is very high. However, every comment at the end of the review expresses their regrets. It is a pity that this game will bring less and less happiness to me in the future.

 This is also what the manufacturer cannot understand the most. Why does happiness decrease?

Tired of playing,

Everyone often hears this word, and often hears players mention it, but there is no way to solve the problem of players getting tired of playing.

Ye Feng looked at his game introduction and game content, and also read the comments carefully.

Players said that this game is like a killing simulator, like a cruel and cruel tyrant who will do nothing except conquer the country.

 But he did a good job. After conquering a country, players can spend the wealth in the game to buy soldiers and continue on the next journey.

 There is one word that can describe this game very well, and that is fighting to support fighting.

"I see that you have set up many countries for your world. Players can choose which country to start with and then conquer." Ye Feng looked at the content of his game, "But apart from conquest and farming, the other content in the game is It’s very thin.”

This game also features farming. The manufacturer has thought a lot about it. After using the accumulated wealth to buy an army, he needs to farm and grow food to support his army, and also support the population to build housing for the people.

These small buildings largely satisfy the player's desire to simulate the construction of a city. After everything is built, the army slowly expands in size and defeats neighboring countries one after another.

“The setting is good, supporting population and housing are all things that an empire game needs to consider.”

“If you are just building a city, then residential housing construction, environmental beautification, etc., all meet the requirements, but there is one thing that is different, that is, your game is about an empire.”

“Or, we can explore the potential of the empire. What we need to face should not only be population but also conquest.”

“A newly built country should be on a completely unfamiliar map when it is first established, and you will encounter many unexpected events in the process of exploring this map.”

"Perhaps players will encounter friends or enemies? Will other civilizations declare war on players? We need to conquer, and the other party also needs to conquer us." Ye Feng said, and the people below nodded seriously.

 “An empire should have different political systems to lead its people.”

“If we choose monarchy, we become kings; if we choose republic, we also become consuls.”

“Here, we can think a little deeper.” Ye Feng smiled mysteriously, “As long as our design is more detailed, this empire will become more and more real.”

“Everyone thinks that democracy is the best system, but democracy also has drawbacks. We can incorporate it into the game, and the drawbacks will be reflected in ways that people don’t expect.”

“For example, when a player wants to go to war with a neighboring country, a democratically formed ‘parliament’ will respond to the player or stop the player.”
