Indie Game Dev

Chapter 16 - System upgrade

Next day he woke up. Shuvam was having his breakfast when Supriya went for work. He then went to his room. He opened his PC and checked if the youtubers had uploaded videos about his game.

He actually planned to shutdown the YouTube channel and delete all the videos if someone had refused him. But seeing that they had put up videos and all had over 2.5 million viewers, he grew ecstatic. He quickly checked his downloads in the website and checked the number of players currently online.

The game had been downloaded by about a million people and about 400,000 people were currently online. He was happy when he knew that his design for the game was a hit. ' After all who can stop themselves from playing such awesome game, hehe. ', he thought.

He also checked his account in the dark web to see how his crystals were selling. He had over $ 100,000 in his deep web account right now. ( Note :- guys I made a mistake back there in one of the earlier chapter when andy said that shuvam needed 10,000 dev coins to hire a killer. Its 10,000 dollars to hire the killer )

The player base was over a million right now so it was pretty good to know that he had made this much money in a day. Now, he could finally do what he had been working for. To kill that bastard. He then asked Andy to connect to a professional killer for hire.

The call was soon connected.

" Hello, Are you snow ? "

" Yes. Name . "

" Aaditya. He is from Nepal. Mahendranagar. "(#my_hometown.)

" OK. $ 10,000 . Transfer it to my deep web account. "

" I have an extra request. Make it extra painful. Make him regret he was ever born and I want it on a video. "

" Hehehehehe…" Snow, the for hire killer gave an evil laugh.

" Ok. It will be $ 50,000. It will be done with in a week. "

" I will transfer the sum after I get the video. "

The call ended. He then asked the attacking hacker bot to dig up each and everything about Aaditya that could make him do time ( go to prison ). Shuvam then said, " interface. "

He noticed that he had a lot of dev coins right now. He had zero dev coins but now he felt like he was rich. First of all he checked his dev coins. He had 10,000 dev coins right now. The million players registered in his game gave him 10,000 dev coins. So, he would get 1 dev coin for every 100 new players.

He quickly bought 10 defensive and 10 attacking hacker bots. He placed the 10 defensive bots as a means to make his family members safe. He placed the offensive ones to publish all the details of anyone who tried to hack his servers. Even though the servers were uncrackable, he still wanted to teach a lesson to the ones who tried to attack. He also bought 20 TB more space to store all his bots. After all each one of them was 100 GB worth of data so it needed huge space to store. They stayed in the server and operated from there.

He bought 7 more 3D model maker bots, 4 more animator bots, 4 more AI bots, 2 more music maker bots and 3 more programmer bots. He also bought 20 assistant bots and placed them randomly to assist the other bots. It cost him 2,200 dev coins to buy all the bots.

Unlike other bots , the assistant bots didn't do anything, they just increased the work speed of any bot they are assigned to by 2%.

Since he had already assigned bots for privacy of his relatives, he decided to call his dad. He called his dad. After a few rings, his dad picked up.

" Hi, dad. "

" Son, are you alright ? Supriya told us what happened. You didn't pick up our calls an refused to talk when we called Supriya's phone. "

" Dad, I am OK now. Don't worry. Dad, I released a game yesterday and it is famous. I just wanted to tell you that I am sending you some money. You always said that you wanted to go to our ancestral place and make a house there and live with mom. "

" Son, we don't need money right now. That was my retirement plan, my dear son. Your brother is still studying, so no need to send money. We will talk about my retirement when your brother graduates out of high school and goes there to study. "

" Dad I am sending you $50,000 right now. Ask me if you need more. Bye dad take care of mom."

He ended the call. He quickly wired $50,000 to his dad. He had 7,800 dev coins right now. He remembered that system told him that the system could be updated.

" Andy, how many coins do I need to upgrade the system ? ", he asked.

" 10,000 dev coins to the next and final level."

" Mhmmm...."

He decided to upload the system to exchange 15 crystals for 1 dollar. He made the programmer bots to work on it. He planned to release it once he had a minimum of 10 million in his account in dark web. He also made the programmer bots and AI maker bots to make a auction system in the interface of the game.

He also made level ranking systems and arranged for a arena with various surroundings for battle royales and duels.

He intended to release these options later on. He carried on with his days. Next day, he had acc.u.mulated the required 10,000 dev coins for the necessary upgrade. His game's player base had increased by another 750,000. The game even have had nearly one million users playing at the same time during peak hours.

He released the arena, rankings and auction thingy. In order to access the arena you needed to pay 5 crystal, regardless of the type you are playing, battle royale or duel. The winner of the royale with 10 people would get 30 crystals as prize. The winner of battle deul in 1-1 match would get 8 crystals as prize where as the ones with 2 man team duel winner would get 7 crystals each.

Whereas the auction would let people sell or auction their gears or vehicles or even profession scrolls using auction or direct selling method.

He then proceeded to upgrade the system. " Andy, upgrade the system. "

" System upgrading….."

" New function unlocked….."

Shuvam was ecstatic when he noticed the notification that resounded in his room..
