I! game designer! Crying players all over the world!

"Come on! Lao Tzu has learned boxing since he was a child! Today, I will beat you to the point of bleeding!" Chai

Jian also rolled up his sleeves.

When the two instructors on the side saw this scene, they felt that their heads were big.

Since the final selection, Chai Jian and Ji Dele have been quarrelling.

The main thing is around the distribution of votes.

Because for every judge, there are ten votes.

These ten votes can be freely distributed to different games.

But Gitler felt that "i want" should not have a single vote for a garbage game!

because they are professionals!

They should vote for a highly professional work.

If you look at Duanmuhai's action game "Knight", it's very good.

But Chai Jian refuted this.

He thinks that games like i want to go back to basics

and that with simple elements, you can design such exquisite levels.

Isn't this extremely professional?

Then Ji Dele said, you fart!

Chai Jian said, you have a problem with your brain

! Now you are ready to stage a full martial arts!

Only Master Shu Xingzhi has stayed out of the matter.

He quietly fiddled with the computer in front of him.

Because before today.

He hasn't played the entry yet.

The main thing is that he is usually too busy, and there is a big project that he needs to prepare for in advance.

So at the beginning of the final selection.

Master Shu Xingzhi is dedicated to experiencing the top ten works shortlisted for this final.

At this moment, he has finished playing Duanmuhai's "Knight".

I have to say.

It's a good game indeed.

"The sense of impact is extreme, but the movement is still a little lacking. Master

Shu Xingzhi saw the advantages and disadvantages of "Chivalry" at a glance.

Percussion and movement are two completely different concepts.

And the latter one, which is often overlooked by many people.

In fact, in an action game, character action is a very important thing!

If Lin Mo was present now, he would definitely agree with Master Shu Xingzhi's opinion.

Because after Lin Mo experienced "Knight", he also discovered the shortcomings of lack of action in the follow-up.

However, Lin Mo purely played some very action-oriented games in his previous life, so he had such a keen perception.

For example, he liked the action game "Master" very much in his previous life.

It's just the ultimate in action.

Of course, the sense of blow of others is certainly not bad.

But the core that really attracts players is the rich and subtle action design.

And Duanmuhai's "Chivalry" is much inferior in comparison.

Even Master Shu Xingzhi saw other shortcomings of "Chivalry".

However, considering that this is only the work of a senior student, there is no need to be so harsh.

That's right, "Knight" is actually Duanmuhai's masterpiece!

This time, it was used to participate in the game production competition, just by the way.

He also has the mentality of giving it a try.

Who knows, try and become the favourite.

"If nothing else, the first place in this competition should be this "Chivalry".

Shu Xingzhi came to a conclusion in his heart.

Judging by his experience.

"Knight" is already the highest level that a college student can make.

As for the higher ......

That's only a game that has been carefully developed by professional game designers.

"There's one last game left, and you'll be off work when the experience is over. "

Shu Xingzhi is not going to stay here for long.

His main job is to judge the final selection.

Just cast your vote according to the measure in his heart.

Then he's done his job.

Nature can also leave.

After all, he still has a lot of things to do.

"i want to ......"

Shu Xingzhi whispered the name of the game.

He was on the side just now, and he kept listening to Chai Jian and Ji Dele talking about this game.

The two have quarreled since the beginning because of this game.

This made Shu Xingzhi feel a little interested in his heart.

What kind of game the hell.

How can two professional game designers quarrel like this?

Shu Xingzhi opened "i want" with curiosity.

The first thing that catches your eye is the rough pixel squares.

"Oh, it turned out to be a pixel game.

Shu Xingzhi suddenly understood a little bit about the reason for the quarrel between Chai Jian and Ji Dele.

However, he has no prejudices against pixel games.

Because he came from that era.

And many of today's games are played through pixel games at the beginning.

It's just that game designers like Jidler have always been influenced by mainstream design ideas.

As a result, he has no interest in pixel games.

Today's mainstream game designers are mainly measured by skill, refinement, and realism.

But this is actually quite normal, after all, modern computer technology is developing too fast.

Sometimes a new game is developed, and as a result, a new configuration comes out that can withstand a much larger amount of computation.

Things like ray tracing, high material resolution, shadow effects, and so on.

These have become standard for small games, not to mention those of the larger ones.

However, Shu Xingzhi has a faint feeling.

It seems that this kind of game design idea is not quite right.

But he didn't have a clear idea of what was wrong.

"The author of 'i want' is unknown, let me see what you can do with the old pixel game.

Shu Xingzhi smiled and clicked to start the game.

At least in his time, there was nothing innovative about pixel games.

But when he gets to the first level of "i want to na".

Shu Xingzhi was quickly stunned.

Because it was only ten seconds, he was sent back to his hometown by a white spike.

"Eh, this game ......"

Shu Xingzhi couldn't help but light up.

Although it only took less than ten seconds to experience.

But he already had a vague guess at the core of the game's design ideas.

"Do you use traps as a key point in level design?"

"That's interesting.

Shu Xingzhi moved his flexible ten fingers and pressed them on the keyboard.

As a hardcore game designer, it's natural that he's also a hardcore gamer.

So face the challenge handed over by the author of the game.

Of course, he won't easily refuse!

But soon, Shu Xingzhi discovered that this game is not mainly about operability.

It's psychological warfare!

Players have to be cautious and guess the traps set by the game's authors.

In this way, targeted cracking can be carried out.

And this is actually the process of fighting wits and courage with the game author.

The resulting gaming experience is unprecedented and enjoyable

! That's right, it's pleasure

! This is Shu Xingzhi's true feeling now!

Although there are some pitfalls, he still succeeds in being fooled.

But there are also many new traps, and he relies on his ingenuity to successfully pass them!

"Amazing, there is such a design idea!" The

more Shu Xingzhi went deeper, the more he could feel the subtlety of the level design of "i want".

It's not the kind of level that purely relies on the player's operation, but requires the use

of the brain!" I didn't expect that the negative emotional feedback in the game experience can also be used as a core design idea!" Shu

Xingzhi suddenly had a lot of inspiration in his heart.

It's not a game like i want to play, though.

It's the design principle of i want that can be extended to other types of games!

Ordinary game designers can only see the game's level, sound effects, plot and other designs.

But what Shu Xingzhi sees is an essence

! something that transcends the superficial form and pursues the essential concept of the game!

Why play this game? Why do players like to play this game? What really attracts players to this game?

If

you want to analyze these three questions.

Shu Xingzhi can directly write a paper and publish it.

But it's unlikely right now.

Even if you want to write a thesis, you have to wait until after the work is done.

"It's fun and interesting, and I guess only children who are still reading can go beyond the mainstream perspective and design such a wonderful game.

"This anonymous name seems to be very aura.

"If there is no masterpiece of "Chivalry", which makes the sense of impact to the extreme, "i want" is definitely the first place in this competition!"

"It's a pity to ......"

Shu Xingzhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It's always a disadvantage for pixel games.

"Knight" is a pure 3D action game.

A side-scrolling game, a pixel game with a size of only a few hundred MB.

How can you compare with others,

unless "i want" can give any surprises.

But how is this possible?

To be able to do this kind of pixel game is already a feast for God.

Thinking of this, Shu Xingzhi saw that time was running out, and clicked to exit the game.

Return to the main screen of i want to play.

He couldn't help but look at it twice with regret.

And it's these two eyes.

Makes him discover a strange button.

"Self-built map ......

" "What kind of game mode is this?"

Shu Xingzhi thought for a while, moved his mouse and clicked this button curiously.

Azure Star has never been said to have built its own map.

Generally, the game designer makes whatever map the player plays.

Although it is a parallel world.

But Azure Star must be slightly different from Lin Mo's previous life in many places.

And about the function of self-built maps, it is one of these subtle differences!

And when Shu Xingzhi opened the [self-built map] interface out of curiosity.

He quickly understood what this function was all about.

He then clicked on the leaderboard and saw a map of the levels created by many players.

Although the names of these maps may seem strange, they are ......

"Hmm!"

Suddenly, a blazing spiritual light flashed through Shu Xingzhi's mind.

Maps...... Player-built ...... Share...... Custom

......" "This, this mode ......"

Shu Xingzhi was speechless in surprise at the moment.

With his insight, experience, and perspective and thinking far beyond the mainstream.

Shu Xingzhi quickly thought of the possibilities that this model could bring!

But the prospect of this model.

He still needs to think about it carefully!

However, at this time, the two people on the side did not give him a chance to think calmly at all.

"Come and hit me

!" "Come on

!" "I'm afraid of you!" "Lao Tzu used to learn boxing

!" "Punch you yarn!" "I'll kill you with a little thumb

!" "Then come here!"

......

Chai Jian and Ji Dele were still chattering and arguing.

But they just quarreled here, and they didn't really do anything.

This made the two mentors on the side look at it difficult.

At first, they were nervous about whether to persuade them to fight.

Until now......

Come on.

The two will only spray each other.

The two mentors have seen it completely.

"Can you stop arguing!" At

this moment, Shu Xingzhi frowned and shouted at them.

Chai Jian and Ji Dele suddenly fell silent.

They are like children who make mistakes, standing aside with their hands in their hands, afraid to say another word.

Shu Xingzhi sighed when he saw this, and beckoned: "You all come here, I'll show you something." When

the words fell, Chai Jian and Ji Dele, as well as the two mentors, quickly came to Shu Xingzhi's side.

Shu Xingzhi pointed to the screen and motioned for them all to look at the things on it.

Kidley leaned over to take a look.

"Eh, a map editor, isn't that a game engine feature?"

"And it's the most rudimentary map editing feature.

Kidley felt a little strange.

Why did Master Shu Xingzhi let them see this

thing? What's so unusual about a map editor?

Shu Xingzhi said softly: "This thing, do you all come into contact with it often?"

"Of course, I use it every day. Chai Jian nodded.

"Then do you think players will be exposed to it?" Shu Xingzhi asked.

"How is this possible. Ji Dele smiled when he heard this, "Only game designers are qualified to use game engines, ordinary players should not come to the sidelines, designing games is not a game."

Speaking of this, Ji Dele couldn't help but slightly upturn the corners of his mouth, revealing a standard crooked mouth, which was matched with his sweet potato face ......

Well, it looks very abstract!

And that's why he smiled.

Purely because he thought of the extremely high social status of game designers.

Generally, game engines that are open to the public are free and have few features.

If you want a better and more professional game engine, you can either develop it yourself or buy it from other game companies.

Anyway, it's definitely not something that ordinary players can get their hands on.

However, when Shu Xingzhi heard this, he said with a solemn expression: "You are too arrogant, aren't the players qualified to come into contact with these things? "

Uh, that's not what I meant, Mr. Shu!" Ji Dele hurriedly said.

He didn't dare to anger the old-timer.

Shu Xingzhi shook his head slightly, then pointed to the screen and said, "This is the map editor that comes with "i want", although it is very simple, but it has a huge meaning!"

However, he did notice the name of the game mentioned by Shu Xingzhi.

"Does i want to have this feature? Why haven't I seen it before?" said

Kidney, looking closer again, frowning.

It is indeed a very unfamiliar interface.

In this way, this feature was just added by the game's authors before the finals.

But what's the point

? Could it be that it can be compared to Duanmuhai's "Chivalry"?

Ji Dele couldn't help but smile in his heart.

And yet at this moment.

Shu Xingzhi said seriously: "I want to vote for all my ten votes for "i want"!" "

Huh?"

Chai Jian and Ji Dele both changed their faces at the same time.

However, Chai Jian is face is happy.

And Jidler's face was ugly.

"Mr. Shu, why is that

?" "i want to be just a pixel game

!" "Where can it compare to Duanmuhai's "Knights"?"

"And who still makes pixel games now! It's all old-fashioned stuff!"

"In the past, when computer memory was limited, everyone made pixel games to save resources. But there's no need for that anymore......

" "It's necessary!, and it's necessary!" Shu Xingzhi interrupted directly, "I want to be more than just a pixel game, the player map editor built in by the makers is completely a revolutionary innovation for the game industry!"

"Ah? That's it?

Can a rudimentary map editor be called a revolutionary innovation?

In fact, Ji Dele didn't understand what Shu Xingzhi had in mind.

At least in Shu Xingzhi's heart.

The built-in player map editor of "i want" is already comparable to the war chess gameplay he once created!

So what is the significance of the player map editor?

In Lin Mo's previous life, around 1998, "StarCraft" was released.

For the first time, Blizzard has bundled a map editor in a released game.

Soon after, players were able to use this map editor to create a custom map called "Havoc".

And this map is the prototype of all MOBA games!

Phenomenal games such as "DOTA", "League of Legends", and "Honor of Kings", which were popular in Lin Mo's previous life.

The core origin is the map editor that Blizzard bound to the game at that time

! It allows players to freely create custom maps!

And according to the game development history of Lin Mo's previous life, many well-known games in the future are equipped with the function of the player map editor.

The significance of this cannot be said to be huge, but can only be said to be very huge!

Shu Xingzhi saw this with his vision far ahead of the times.

But for Ji Dele and Chai Jian, they are concerned.

They are completely incomprehensible.

But this does not affect Chai Jian's heart.

"I also voted all ten of my votes for 'i want'!" Chai Jian said his decision.

The two Qingfeng University tutors on the side hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to respond to Shu Xingzhi.

In fact, whether it is voted for "i want" or "Chivalry", it is acceptable for them.

After all, this contest was held by Seifu University.

Since this is the case, Master Shu Xingzhi must be given a face.

"I'll vote for "Knight", ten votes!" At

this moment, Jidler's face was as black as coal.

However, he didn't think that "Knight" would lose in this way.

Because in addition to the votes of their judges, there were more than 200 votes from the audience who did not vote.

And then, it's time for the official start of voting!

The audience can't wait.

The hearts of the ten contestants couldn't help but rise.

Only Lin Mo seemed very calm.

It seems that he has a prediction for the final championship.
