Chapter 45: You guys think we, the main contractors, can't handle this?
"I don't think we need to obsess over romantic relationships."
"It's not good for single people to be obsessed with couples."
"Friends, classmates, roommates, and even online friends you've never met are all acceptable."
Shen Huaizhou spoke eloquently on the platform.
At this moment, Hu Chen, who was sitting in the lower seat, listened with a blank expression.
He felt that this CEO Shen Huaizhou seemed to know a lot about games, but he would occasionally make some astonishing moves.
Other people make dating games with the goal of letting players fall in love.
He made a two-player game, and it turns out he was aiming to make players break up?
Mr. Shen's thought process seems a bit hard to keep up with—or rather, I'm a bit out of touch with the times.
Of course, this doesn't mean that President Shen Huaizhou's thinking is flawed.
Hu Chen simply felt that he couldn't quite understand his thoughts.
Unlike the previous company's boss who only calculated costs, investments, and returns, and wanted to squeeze every last drop of value out of the players,
They treat players like韭菜 (a metaphor for easily exploited people), harvesting them one crop after another.
They can even go so far as to completely exploit players with just one game.
Hu Chen had personally witnessed one of his games being on the verge of shutting down.
Two months before the server shutdown, the game developers launched a permanent monthly card – recharge 100 yuan to enjoy the monthly card benefits permanently.
After players had spent a significant amount of money, an announcement about a new map was released half a month before the server was shut down.
Then, the game abruptly ended.
But Shen Huaizhou is different; he is not only one of the three bosses of this company.
He also took charge of the entire game development department.
No one can deny that Brother Shen's project is very interesting.
And they never rest on their laurels.
Oh, no, it's not that we're not relying on past successes; there are only three games in total.
There are no more than fifty employees.
Making a large-scale single-player game is possible, but making a AAA game is impossible.
"Come on, let me tell you about this project and the gameplay mechanics of this type of game..."
Shen Huaizhou noticed that everyone was looking at him.
So, he waved his hand, opened the PowerPoint presentation, and began to explain...
There are quite a few cooperative games in the country.
This applies to all kinds of PVP and PVE games.
Even Human: Fall Flat is actually a cooperative adventure game.
Playing alone is fine, but it's much more fun with multiple people.
This time, the game proposed by Shen Huaizhou is based on the interaction between two players.
There aren't many games like this in this world.
It is quite rare.
However, in Shen Huaizhou's previous life, there were quite a few games of this type.
For example, "Fireboy and Watergirl" and "Two for One" are both multiplayer cooperative adventure games.
"And my plan this time—"
"It's this game—"
Shen Huaizhou opened the PowerPoint presentation and displayed a brand-new project proposal to everyone.
"!!!"
Mmm!! This is it! This is it!!
Shen Huaizhou had no idea what Su Jianxue was feeling at that moment! The instant the PPT content was displayed!
Su Jianxue squeezed her legs together, so excited she almost shouted.
Yes, that's it.
That author predicted this with incredible accuracy!
Our fourth game in the Insomnia Game series is almost identical to the project proposal that Huaizhou presented!
For two-player games, players can go from being complete strangers to having a relationship forty years earlier.
Couples can play this game to test whether their love is as strong as gold.
This is the game!!
Exactly the same, even the game's name and setting are exactly the same.
凸(艹皿艹), this author is simply amazing.
You can even predict this?
……
With the explosive popularity of "Human: Fall Flat", "The Binding of Isaac" and "Getting Over It".
Insomnia games have also caught the attention of major platforms.
It's still a steam engine platform, but the servers are from overseas.
With the explosive popularity of these three games.
Clips of some domestic game streamers have also been simultaneously uploaded to YouTube, one of the world's largest video platforms.
YouTube, the largest video platform in the world.
The target audience is players worldwide, so once this video goes viral...
The audience, of course, consists of players from all over the world.
Steam engine platform, Donghuang regional headquarters.
Qi Qi was organizing the data for the last Steam Engine Platform Game New Product Festival of the year.
While watching clips from some of the streamers on YouTuBo.
A very eye-catching comment appeared right in front of me—
This game looks fun, but I can't find it on Steam.
[Steam engine locked to international servers? You guys think our streamers can't handle your games?]
ha?
What the hell?
Qi Qi, who had just finished organizing the data, was stunned when she saw these comments.
Why are there so many overseas players appearing under these slices?
One of them in particular made her furious.
How could you guys at Donghuang possibly make a game like this? It must be designed by one of our designers at Coria!
[That's right, our Coria designers are the best! The designers of these other games are descended from Coria!]
incredible.
The gameplay of these three games has surprisingly broken through the previous framework of Donghuang Games.
It looks really interesting.
Jerry is a game streamer on YouTube with millions of fans worldwide.
For a long time, it was known for its superb skills and humorous style.
I have heard of games from all the major game companies in the world and have a broad knowledge of almost all game genres.
However, the slices of these three games have already been released.
On YouTube, it has even reached 100,000 clicks.
But I've never even played these three games before?
What's the logic behind this?
When Jerry learned that the game actually came from the Eastern Empire, a country lacking in games...
The whole person is not well.
Why can't I find Donghuang's games on the official Steam platform?
You guys are making it sound like we, the main players in the oil-producing region, can't handle this!
What is the magic of this game that attracts so many viewers?
Jerry couldn't understand it, but he knew that if he could stream these popular games in his livestream, it would be a good opportunity.
The effect will definitely be explosive.
I was just worried about not having any shows to make, and now the material has been delivered to my door, and you're telling me it's not available on the international version?
So, while Shen Huaizhou and the others were still in the meeting...
On YouTube, dozens of game streamers with millions of followers flocked to the official Steam platform account to express their dissatisfaction:
"Shit! This game is so fun, why don't you guys play the international version?!"
"We need viewership! We need entertaining content!"
"Let us play these games quickly!"
