Chapter 13: Second Stage Completed
The video of Wang Laoju’s live broadcast was quickly uploaded to the Internet.
As a well-known anchor.
Wang Laoju has attracted quite a bit of attention.
It soon attracted a large number of netizens to watch.
When players learned that Slay the Spire still had the final level hidden and that the previously much-talked-about BUG was actually the condition for opening the door, they were excited.
"Shit! It turns out those items aren't bugs!"
"Collecting three keys will unlock the final level?"
"It's amazing that the animation plot and game content are linked together!"
"Can you promote CG like this?"
"Where's Xiao Heizi? Wasn't he shouting so happily before? Why is he silent now?"
"Lao Wang is such a wimp, just wait and see how I make it to the top!"
When the truth was revealed, the little black guys who were dancing happily at first all stopped and finally could not dance anymore.
It also allows players who truly like this game to vent their anger.
Their attention was quickly drawn to the never-before-seen final level in the video, and they rushed into the game, vowing to be the first man to reach the top of the tower.
The public opinion that was previously aroused actually became a boost to the promotion of Slay the Spire, allowing this game to successfully break out of its circle.
The group that fell the fastest was the anime fans.
"Shit! The anime hasn't even been updated to episode 8 yet, and the game has already reached the top of the tower?"
"No, we can't let those gamers know the plot before us. I want to climb the tower!"
"Go! We must conquer the top of the tower before the gamers do!"
"Two Thorny Apes, So High!!"
In the blink of an eye.
A large number of fans of the Slay the Spire animation flocked into the game, competing with the player group for the first pass to the top of the tower .
The sales volume, which was already increasing very rapidly, suddenly increased dramatically!
Even Chen Lin, who was preparing for his next game at home, was somewhat caught off guard by this development.
Because it was far beyond his expectations.
However, he quickly reacted and took advantage of this opportunity to release a new announcement through his official account.
【New achievements updated! 】
[The Man Standing on the Top of the Tower (Unique): The first player to reach the top of the 20th step tower can obtain it.]
[Those who have this title can claim a bonus of 10,000 yuan by taking a screenshot of the title. ]
After a few days of preparation, the number of followers of Chen Lin’s account has skyrocketed to more than 200,000.
As soon as the news was released, many people saw it, and it caused a huge uproar in the gaming community.
"The only achievement! And there's a bonus!"
"10,000 is enough. This is too arrogant!"
"The prize money is secondary. The main thing is the achievement. I, King Luffy, will definitely get this achievement!"
“I thought the designer was being criticized for being autistic, but I didn’t expect he was planning a big move.”
"Give me some face and don't compete with me for this achievement."
I have to say.
Chen Lin has a very keen sense of marketing.
As long as it can increase the promotion of the game, he doesn't mind spending money, and he truly understands what the players want.
He doesn't even need to promote it.
The news spread quickly among the players.
Even those who claim to be game masters and specialize in collecting achievements came here to smell the fragrance and attacked the top of the tower.
For a while.
The entire circle is full of strategies and discussions about climbing the tower.
Players enjoy climbing the tower over and over again.
The anchors also started broadcasting this game live, and laughter could be heard in every corner.
"WDNMD! I'm only 1 point away from passing!"
…
"Hey! That's not right! I pressed the wrong button just now, this one doesn't count!"
…
"There's a problem! There's definitely something wrong with the game data! I don't believe anyone can defeat these two monsters!"
…
"Trust me, I'll win this time!"
…
After trying again and again, the players finally discovered that the most difficult parts were the last two gatekeeper elites and the final boss.
Basically many people fell here, and the corpses could form a tall tower.
However, there is no shortage of talented experts in the gaming community.
Soon, news spread that someone had successfully reached the top of the first-level tower and slayed the final boss, the Heart of Corruption.
But what drives them crazy is...
The imagined subsequent plot did not occur.
The boss at the top of the first-level tower is just an incarnation of the Heart of Corruption's thoughts. Killing it will not have any impact on the tower at all.
You must kill the 20th-level Corrupted Heart to reach the true ending and learn the subsequent plot.
"Damn! I knew it wouldn't be that easy!"
A man who was obsessed with anime smashed his keyboard so hard that he almost ate his monitor.
But after venting, he obediently sat back in his seat and started over again, moving on to the next level of difficulty.
I can only say it smells really good.
…
[Congratulations, your wealth has reached 1 million, and the second stage is completed. ]
【Reward: Universal Game Engine】
[The third stage begins, game wealth value: 10 million]
【Reward: VR Technology】
Just as Chen Lin was working hard on writing the game copy, a long-lost reminder sounded in his mind.
"Is it finally done?"
Chen Lin stopped what he was doing and looked surprised.
After observing for a period of time, he found that the purchasing power of players in this world was relatively weaker.
Considering his lack of fame , it is a bit surprising that he could achieve this result in such a short time.
It seems that the response to Slay the Spire has been pretty good recently.
Finally, he got the second-stage reward he had been longing for, the game engine.
This thing is a good thing. To put it simply, it is a core component of editable computer game systems and interactive real-time graphics applications.
To put it simply, it provides game designers with various practical tools needed to write games.
For example, a series of complicated tasks such as the basic code of character movements, light and shadow projection, physics engine, screen rendering, etc. can be easily implemented through the game engine, saving a lot of manpower.
If he remembered correctly.
The most advanced game engine in the gaming industry in the previous life should be the fifth generation of Unreal Engine, abbreviated as Unreal 5.
Because of its powerful technical support, it is widely used in various 3A masterpieces and online games. Many games even use Unreal Engine 5 as a publicity gimmick.
Now he also has his own game engine.
It can be said that the road to success is halfway completed.
“I wonder how this engine compares to Unreal Engine 5?”
With doubts and expectations, Chen Lin transferred the engine file to the computer and then quickly opened it.
A complex game workbench appeared in front of him.
“What a perfect function!”
Chen Lin was immediately shocked by the interface in front of him.
As I clicked on each production tool, the shock in my eyes became even greater.
He dared to guarantee that the functionality of this game engine was definitely not inferior to Unreal 5, and was even several times more powerful than Unreal 5!
He can complete the same game in half the time or even less.
And the quality is better!
If the scope is expanded and given to a game company, it is entirely possible to produce a 3A masterpiece within half a year!
“It’s a good thing.”
Chen Lin couldn't put it down and operated the various functions of the universal engine, with a smile on his face.
Originally, he was a little worried about the manpower issue, fearing that the game production would not keep up with the progress.
Now that he has this game engine, he can finally start preparing for the studio.
Otherwise, it would take him a long time to make the next game by himself.
You can't always spend money on outsourcing.
This is not cost-effective.
