Chapter 3: Making up your mind



After sorting out his thoughts, Wang Chuan opened his laptop.

Because the school teaches game production, I can bring my own computer to the classroom.

Moreover, because I often develop games, my laptop must be loaded with Pangu Editor.

As a result, the configuration of computers is very high, but thanks to the technological progress in this world, the thickness of high-configuration computers is not much different from that of laptops in previous lives.

Therefore, it can be said that a high-configuration computer is indispensable for game producers.

The classmates around me were still chatting, and the topic of their conversation was mostly about finding jobs.

After all, they are already seniors, and graduation is not far away.

"Wang Chuan, you don't really want to make your own game, do you?"

At this time, his deskmate accidentally saw Wang Chuan's actions and asked with a strange expression.

Well, there is a reason why I asked this question.

Before Wang Chuan traveled through time, the predecessor of this world once made a bet with his deskmate, saying that he wanted to make a game.

Then release it to official channels, and through your own efforts, become an official game producer.

And the result is predictable.

How could a game be so easy to make? The predecessor failed miserably.

Afterwards, Wang Chuan traveled through time.

"Young people, if you don't go a little crazy, what are you called young people?"

After recalling this memory, Wang Chuan did not deny it, but just smiled and said.

Since this is the dream of his predecessor, then he will help to realize it!

It just so happened that he had the ability and the mission, which could be considered as repaying the cause and effect of this time travel.

"Wang Chuan, you have to think about this carefully. Going down the independent game path is too demanding. There's basically no hope."

"I think it's better for me to be down-to-earth and intern at a game company for a few years to gain some experience before considering becoming a full-time game producer."

"If that doesn't work, you could also try a game production competition. That at least has a little hope, and it's better than an independent game."

Wang Chuan's deskmate was very responsible, and he really tried to persuade him with all his heart.

After all, he didn't want Wang Chuan to ruin his future just because of a casual bet, or an unrealistic dream.

"Thank you, um, deskmate, but don't worry, I'm sure this isn't a joke!"

Wang Chuan was a little surprised and looked at his deskmate seriously for the first time.

He has now decided to go the independent game route, which not only gives him more freedom but also helps him fulfill his predecessor's last wish.

Well, that is, if he asks his deskmate what his name is, wouldn’t it be a bit inappropriate?

Also, what's with this predecessor? My deskmate doesn't even know its name?

"Emm, have you forgotten my name again?"

Who would have thought that the classmate's perception was still very sharp. Looking at Wang Chuan's somewhat embarrassed look, he said softly.

"Forehead......"

"Okay, I give in. My name is Xiao Ming."

"Okay, I'll remember Xiao Ming. Goodbye, Xiao Ming."

After replying somewhat awkwardly, Wang Chuan picked up his laptop and ran away.

Sure enough, it was impossible to keep quiet in class.

If you want to play games quietly, you have to go back to the dormitory!

Well, don’t get me wrong, Wang Chuan’s roommates have all found their places, and now he is the only one left in the dormitory.

Wang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief after returning to the familiar yet unfamiliar dormitory.

He placed his fingers on the keyboard and began to type continuously.

Although he has the memory of his previous life, he still needs to familiarize himself with it.

But he mastered it quickly, thanks to the Pangu Editor that came out of this world.

It simplifies game making to the point where he only needs to remember a few commands.

After understanding Pangu Editor, Wang Chuan felt much more relaxed.

He has determined his goal and will achieve success through independent game certification.

If you want to use this method, you must have two goals.

Rankings and player recognition.

Putting aside the rankings for now, Wang Chuan believes that as long as the game is good enough and shocking enough, it will be easy to climb to the top.

After all, the list only includes games released within one month, and those that have been released beyond that will automatically be removed from the list.

However, player recognition, that is, the ability to pay for a game, is of paramount importance.

The problem is how to increase the number of paying users to 10,000 within a month.

The money earned from this game is also related to his subsequent development plans.

Although after becoming an official game producer, you will receive official support.

Ability to borrow a certain amount of money from a bank without interest.

But you have to pay it back eventually, so it would be better if you can earn it yourself.

These are all prerequisites. The remaining question is what kind of game to choose.

According to his current financial situation, the first thing he needs is a low-cost one, and it would be best if all the resources can be used in Pangu Editor.

This way he could keep the cost within 20,000 yuan, after all he had to set aside 10,000 yuan for publicity.

The second thing is to make it simple because he doesn’t have much time.

The task was required to be completed within a month, and he didn't want to drag it out.

However, he already had a plan for the choice of game.

The first game is the one he mentioned before, the game that contains META elements: "The Stanley Parable".

There are three reasons for choosing him.

First, his method of operation is very simple, mainly exploring through plot narration.

Second, it is a typical meta-game. This idea is original and is enough to attract a large number of players. It can cooperate with the magical magnifying glass.

Third, the cost is very low! It’s more about plot design, and most of the resources can be found in Pangu Editor.

The production of "The Stanley Parable" is relatively simple, but most of the content is in the narration, and the core points are in the reversal.

As for music, the requirements are very low and he doesn't need to customize it specially.

As for more classic games, he is not considering them now because it is not the right time.

Those games require a huge cost and some time to develop, and they also need a platform and publicity, otherwise, it would be a huge loss.

He didn't want the classic game from his previous life to fail in this world.

In comparison, meta-games like "The Stanley Parable" are more suitable for his current situation.

After all, in this world, the meta-game has not yet appeared. Once he takes it out, it will definitely have an explosive effect.

It may not be popular among the entire nation, but there are definitely quite a few players who are paying attention to this new type of game.

Wang Chuan is very confident about this.
