In the simplest and most straightforward terms, it is an existence similar to github, a community that allows players to directly install MOD content.

Players can upload the corresponding MOD to the creative workshop, and then players who use the mall can directly choose to subscribe.

Fool-style one-click installation and uninstallation operations.

Give players the most convenient experience.

Instead of playing MOD in the past, you also need to pay attention to the version of the game and modify various parameters.

At the same time, as a section of the creative workshop, it can also cooperate with the community culture of players, allowing MOD makers to better communicate with game players.

It can be said that for Chen Xu, what he longs for is not only a successful mall, but also a platform for players with content.

After listening to Chen Xu's words, there are some people in the conference room who are not engaged in the operation, and they still don't fully understand, or they don't have a concept in their minds.

After all, in the parallel world, there has never been such an example.

But for Gabe Newell, it was like opening a new door for him, and it also gave him a glimpse of Chen Xu's ambitions.

"." Genius-like creativity! This directly connects players and game manufacturers closely! "Gabe Newell's eyes widened (how good is Zhao).

It can be said that this creative workshop, as well as community content.

Just like a rope, it connects players and game manufacturers together.

"However, some games may not be very suitable for the content of MOD, and the content review and special tools that need to be adapted require a lot of work." Ruan Xue also put forward his own views.

"The tools for review and adaptation are not a problem, but money." Chen Xu smiled.

This is the easiest problem to solve.

For the current Nebula game, it is completely qualified to say this sentence.

Zheng worried that the money earned by "Ayrton Circle", "Fucking Kitchen" and "Jelly Bean Man" can't be used up.

"As for the game? Don't worry about that, don't forget the new game we're developing."

"It can be said that the setting of the creative workshop is tailor-made for this game."

Following Chen Xu's words, a brand new game cover appeared on the big screen.

Steve of Pixel Square is on a grassland, waving a stone pick in his hand, and chasing a pink little pig.

On the blue sky, the white clouds of pixel squares form the LOGO of the game - "Minecraft".

Chapter 93: Chen Xu made a pixel game?

The name of "Minecraft" in the previous life is unquestionable, and even many people who have never played it have heard of its name.

At the beginning, "Minecraft" actually had a vague gameplay including core concepts.

Until a little bit of improvement, coupled with the beginning of development as a java language, it has a very high degree of freedom, attracting many MOD makers, based on "Minecraft".

Only then did a core concept gradually be determined, that is: creation.

In a sandbox game world, create the world the player wants to create.

Go for adventure, survival, or a variety of ways to play.

For Chen Xu and his team, the development of "Minecraft" was actually not as difficult as imagined.

Because of the first version of this game, creator Marcus made the closed beta version in just one week after borrowing from games such as "Endless Miner" and "Dwarf Fortress".

Of course, this game obviously did not become popular all over the world as soon as it was released.

But it was polished a little by Marcus, and then more and more players knew this game, and because of its unique gameplay and the freedom of java.

Various MODs began to be produced, which greatly increased the game's community, which slowly made "Minecraft" one of the most popular games in the world.

If there is only the content of "Minecraft" itself, it will become an extremely good game, but it will not become a legendary masterpiece.

It can be said that "Minecraft" can become a legend, a large part is related to the player community.

For Chen Xu and the others, the core point of this development period was not the development of game content.

Instead, I want to find a way to make this game free, both inside and outside the game.

Now they've clearly done the hardest part of the game.

...

In the project room, Qin Yi and a group of people gathered around to experience the current version of "Minecraft".

Compared with "Minecraft" in the previous life, Chen Xu did not add any messy light and shadow performance, but simply launched high-definition texture packs with different resolutions based on the PC version.

At least at first glance, it seems that it is good enough. As for how to make it better, this piece of Chen Xu is going to be displayed in the original game community. After all, this is the most intuitive place for players to feel.

As for the VR and mobile versions, due to time constraints and the issue of device system ports, development has not yet begun.

Prioritize the operation of the PC version of "Minecraft" first.

"Haha, sister Xin (bibf) is this the house you built? Haha!"

Ruan Xue laughed cheerfully in the crowd.

Then Qin Yi and the others burst into laughter, and the crowd was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"Haha, absolutely absolutely!"

"Sister Xin, you are the home of the pharaoh!"

Hearing the movement, Chen Xu just put down the phone that communicated with Gabe Newell, and Chen Xu also took a look.

I saw that on the computer screen in front of Yang Xin was a house surrounded by wood, from a distance it looked like a big boss's cube.

The most important thing is that this thing is still airtight, the window? No.

Door? No, I want to go in and just dig the soil with my hands.

Then I walked into the house and looked inside, except for the torches on the wall, and the tool table, storage box, and bed in the corner, there was nothing there.

"You don't understand! This is called resounding the call for energy conservation and emission reduction!"

"And this is my first time playing..."

Yang Xin was also a little anxious after being run on by his colleagues around him.

What is said in the mouth, no matter how big the house is, it is only a temporary residence, and this small box is the permanent home.

Make the office full of cheerful atmosphere.

"Okay, don't keep bullying people." Chen Xu walked over to smooth things out, and then pondered for a while: "However, this little black house is indeed a bit ugly!"

Originally, Yang Xin, who was a little moved because of Chen Xu's righteous words, turned a little dark at this time.

Can't get around it or what!

But this can't blame her, except for Qin Yi and others who participated in the development work, such as Yang Xin, they were just playing.

Obviously, like most of the players, the first home they built was not aesthetically pleasing, but Yang Xin's ugly one was rather abstract.

"What do you think of this game?" Chen Xu asked.

Hearing this, Yang Xin held his chin with a contemplative expression, thinking for a minute or two before speaking.

"When I started playing, I felt that it was just okay to play, but as I learned more and more content, it felt a little interesting, but it didn't have the amazing feeling of "Ayrden Circle" and "Battlefield" , compared to "Jelly Bean Man", it is also less entertaining, even in this game, it can be connected online."

Yang Xin made a conclusion after thinking.

Okay, but not that amazing feeling.

"It's normal, because this is a game that requires players to study in order to feel the charm. The more players who play, the faster the charm of this game will be released."

"And the game "Minecraft" wants to surprise players in terms of visual effects, and it is closely related to the community." Chen Xu was not too surprised.

In fact, many players have similar feelings when they first come into contact with "Minecraft".

God made? That's it?

But as the game went deeper, after discovering the huge community and seeing the world of others, a thousand words turned into only two words: FUCK!

Therefore, Chen Xu did not expect that "Minecraft" would explode as soon as it was released like "Ayrden's Circle".

It takes a certain amount of time to accumulate, and compared with the previous life, the parallel world game market is larger, and the popularity of Nebula Games has also started, plus its impressive strength.

For "Minecraft", Chen Xu has full confidence, it is nothing more than when it will ferment.

 …

It didn't take long for the players to recover from the entertainment of "Jelly Bean" and the breakup quarrel in "Naughty Kitchen".

On this day, Chen Xu posted two pictures on his official blog.

The first picture has the words "Creative Workshop" written on it, and the content in the picture is quite simple.

Nebula Game's own Wonderland game mall, as well as the fader in "Elden's Circle", the little animal chef in "Murky Kitchen", and the jelly beans in "Jelly Bean Man".

As for the second picture, it is a vast grassland. There is a villa in the middle of the grassland. The villain wearing blue clothes on the balcony looks at the sunset in the distance. The scene is very beautiful.

But the point is, everything is made up of pixel squares.

As soon as the news came out, it instantly attracted the attention of countless players.

'what's the situation? Does Mr. Chen have a new project? High-yielding like a sow! ’

'Creative workshop? Is there a new section in Wonderland Mall? What is this for? ’

'What is the second picture? new game? But why pixels? ’

'Pixels? Such an ancient technology, Chen Xu's new game won't be a pixel game, right? ’

‘People are a little stupid, and Chen Xu is not short of money! ’

After reading these two pictures on Chen Xu's official blog, many players fell into a state of confusion.

Chapter 94 What is a sandbox game?

Soon, the official blog of Chen Xu and Nebula Games quickly spread all over the Internet.

Including overseas players, also received pushes from the official accounts of overseas Nebula Games.

Obviously, the first picture is to say Wonderland Mall, which may add a new section called Creative Workshop.

But what is it, many players can only guess, because just from the content of a picture, they can't guess anything at all.

More players and the media, the main focus is still on the second picture.

A pixel-style picture, could it be a preview of the new Nebula game?

But why is it a pixel, a technology that has been lagging behind for more than ten years?

Many players are doing analysis online.

‘By the way, how can the new work of the old thief be a pixel~game? ’

'That's right, the old-fashioned technology of pixels, hasn't it been eliminated long ago? ’

'It hasn't been eliminated, isn't it, there are still some manufacturers doing it-? ’

‘It’s not the same. Those manufacturers have no money and can only make small costs. Does Nebula Games seem to have no money? ’

'Or just a little game like "Jelly Bean"? ’

‘I don’t feel right, the level of emphasis is different! Back then, the old thief said that there were two mini-games during the New Year. This was clearly told to us, and even the promotional pictures were not posted, highlighting that a stepmother raised them, but now this is obviously creating a fever! ’

‘Did the old thief give up making big games? I'm still looking forward to playing games like Battlefield and Ring of Eldon! ’

‘What do you think about, wait for the game to come out and see if it’s fun, anyway, which of the old thief’s games has disappointed us so far? ’

‘Okay, although I don’t like pixel games at all, I will support one for the old thief. ’

‘Stop talking about this pixel, aren’t you curious about what this creative workshop is? ’

'Indeed, it seems to cover all the games of Nebula Games except Battlefield! ’

'? ? ? Why don't I have a battlefield, so there is no card face? ’

‘…’

Players on the Internet are talking a lot. Obviously, these two pictures have completely aroused the curiosity of players.

It's just that among the player groups, more players pay attention to the "creative workshop". It is not clear what kind of existence this involves "Ayrden's Circle", "Jelly Bean Man" and "Naughty Kitchen".

As for the other "Minecraft" that has not yet announced the project, after seeing the pixel art, many players expressed their support and expectations, but they were somewhat disappointed.

But in contrast to the players, it is the domestic big goose and other game manufacturers.
