Chapter 18 Final Plot Revealed
Having a self-developed game engine is extremely rare in the entire gaming industry.
Even many large companies now use engines that are not developed in-house, which requires a large amount of copyright fees and also depends on the approval of others.
No game .
It is equivalent to having your lifeline held by others and losing many possibilities for independent innovation.
The emergence of this self-developed engine had a shock to the employees that was no less than an 8-magnitude earthquake. They all stood at their workstations and started shouting.
“It’s really a self-developed engine! And it’s also marked with our studio’s logo!”
"This, this, this... we also have our own engine?"
"What an awesome software! It basically covers all the auxiliary tools on the market!"
“It even has 3D precision rendering and pipeline processes!”
"A masterpiece! It's simply a masterpiece!"
For a game programmer, an excellent engine is equivalent to the status of Gundam models in the eyes of modelers and the weight of Rem figures in the hearts of game programmers.
Have a game engine of your own.
It was something they had never dared to think about before.
But now it is right in front of us.
And its functions are so powerful that even they can’t believe it, it’s even more terrifying than those well-known engines on the market!
Just a simple operation for a while.
Old Li completed the work that used to take at least half an hour to complete, which made him so excited that he danced with joy.
Just at this moment.
Chen Lin walked in from outside.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
"Mr. Chen, the prehistoric engine on our computer..."
Old Li stood up quickly and asked.
The others also looked nervous and couldn't help swallowing.
"Oh, that one you're talking about. I asked Lao Song to install it last night. It's our Honghuang self-developed engine. We'll use it to make games in the future."
After saying that, Chen Lin picked up the phone, answered the call while walking into the office, and disappeared in front of everyone in a short while.
It’s really a self-developed engine!
The employees looked at each other with their eyes wide open. No wonder they had to sign a confidentiality agreement before joining the company.
Unable to contain my excitement any longer, I sat back and started trying to make a game using the new engine.
After a while.
There were bursts of exclamations from the office area again.
All kinds of awesome words were floating in the air and couldn't be calmed down for a long time.
…
The other side.
In the comments section of Slay the Spire.
After a few days of hard work, more and more players have reached the 20th level.
People kept posting screenshots to show off.
There are endless strategies for various professional schools.
And just this afternoon.
A screenshot of reaching the top of the 20th-level tower finally broke the silence.
"Fuck! Someone cleared level 20 so quickly?"
After seeing the screenshot, the entire comment section was in an uproar, and in a blink of an eye, a large number of players came to watch.
"I really cleared level 20, and it even comes with a screenshot of the achievement!"
"This is too fast! I just cleared the 8th level!"
"Ahhh!! I'm just a little bit closer and I can reach level 20!"
" Which boss is so awesome? I want to become his disciple!"
"It seems to be that achievement collection maniac, Chicken stewed with eagle."
"It turned out to be Brother Da Diao. It's alright then."
"Brother Da Diao's moves are indeed extraordinary."
Xiao Ji Dun Da Diao is also considered a celebrity in the gaming circle. He can be seen in almost every speed run of the game.
He is known as the man with the fastest hand speed in the gaming circle.
Players who heard the news and rushed to Slay the Spire left comments under the picture, asking about the subsequent plot after clearing level 20.
However, they received only a simple sentence in response.
[I won’t spoil the subsequent plot, I can only say that the designer is awesome! I look forward to seeing you in the next game! ]
As a high-end player, Brother Da Diao has very high gaming literacy and did not reveal the subsequent plot to avoid affecting the experience of other players.
But with his graceful departure, the players became even more impatient.
It was like the old man from the Wang family peeking at the widow next door taking a bath but not telling them what she was doing. It felt like there were thousands of ants crawling on his body.
Some players who have unlocked the 20th level of difficulty were so excited that they continued to attack the top of the tower.
Finally that afternoon.
As more and more people pass the level, subsequent plots are gradually revealed.
only.
When they learned the ending, they all couldn't hold back.
In the game.
The protagonist went through untold hardships to reach the top of the tower and met the final boss who controlled the entire tower, the Heart of Corruption.
But when he finally succeeded in destroying the heart after a fierce battle, the entire tower began to collapse rapidly, and the world it supported collapsed with it.
If not stopped in time.
All humans living inside and outside the tower will suffer a catastrophic disaster!
final.
The protagonist has no choice but to sacrifice himself to become the new heart of the tower and continue to suffer from the erosion of corrupt forces.
Then the scene changed.
Several years later, a young man stood at the entrance of the first floor of a high tower, holding an initial card, and headed towards the top of the tower.
…
"The dragon slayer eventually becomes the dragon himself. I never thought it would be like this."
"This... If you don't climb the tower, you will die. If you climb the tower, you will also die. This is simply an unsolvable cycle!"
"All souls are imprisoned in the tower, and they can never escape..."
"Fuck you, I finally got here and you stabbed me again!"
"Don't stop me, I'm going to fight the designer!"
Whether you are a gamer or an anime fan, the moment you learn about the final plot, your mood becomes mixed.
Isn't their generation also living in a cycle that can never be broken?
Even if he finally reaches the "top of the tower" and stands at the highest , will the boy still be the same boy he was before?
I have to say.
This is a game with a profound meaning.
Players have to admire the designer's careful design.
Until...an announcement suddenly popped up on Chen Lin’s official account.
[As the real top of the tower surfaces, the final battle finally arrives, and the truth hidden behind the tower will be completely revealed. ]
[Slay the Spire will update the Endless Mode at 8am tomorrow and add a fourth profession: Spectator]
[Viewer: A blind practitioner who accidentally entered the tower, the divine power he possessed seems to bring different changes to the tower. ]
[Synchronously update the CG animation to the final episode of episode 12. 】
…
???
Where is the profound meaning?
So this final plot is for the purpose of the game! ?
Endless mode.
You think torturing them once isn't enough, so you create a new mode to torture them repeatedly, right?
The players who reacted were really amused by Chen Lin’s cool operation.
I never expected that the infinite loop in this animation plot was actually to pave the way for the endless mode of the game.
While I feel unhappy, I can't help but marvel at this design.
The plot of the entire CG animation is perfectly integrated with the game update process.
This was the first time they had seen a game company do this.
I also enjoyed two kinds of happiness without realizing it.
Even though he was cursing, he still ran to update the game happily, ready to experience the new mode and new profession.
And those who are interested have also discovered.
The name of Chen Lin's account also changed from the original "Xianyu" to the big words "Honghuang Studio" and passed the official certification.
"Hey guys, I haven't seen you for a few days. It turns out you're setting up your studio."
In the live broadcast room, Old E, who had just received the message, smiled and clicked on the account homepage to check it out.
Seeing that there were no game updates, he looked up at the camera.
"Brothers, there aren't many games to play recently. How about going to the Huanhai exhibition to broadcast live later?"
