"I...I think I won't go with you. I want to help my mom with the shop," Su Xiaowan said weakly.
Lin Chen chimed in, "I'm not going either. I have things to do. I'll go when school starts."
Lin Chen plans to launch Fruit Ninja before the end of summer vacation, which is indeed a tight schedule.
"Okay." Miss Shen pouted, looking a little disappointed.
Seeing this, Lin Chen said, "How about this, you come with us on the 27th. After you report, there shouldn't be anything else to do. We can go out and have some fun together. Fatty, just come over whenever you have time."
"Okay!" The young lady cheered again.
After the event ended, Lin Chen said goodbye to Shen Yue and Su Xiaowan, and left with Fatty. On the way, Lin Chen asked Fatty, "Do you know anything about Su Xiaowan's family situation?"
“I heard from people in the next class that Su Xiaowan’s family was originally quite well-off, but her father passed away from illness, and their financial situation became just average. Fortunately, they still had some savings, so her mother opened a clothing store, and Su Xiaowan would help out at the store after school.”
So that's how it is. Lin Chen suddenly realized that it seems that people who have experienced some major misfortune in their family have a very strong desire to take the civil service exam. This was true for him in his previous life, and it was also true for Su Xiaowan.
After returning home, I turned on my computer and logged into QQ. There, I saw that my senior, Anrou, had sent me several different styles of images of the same fruit and asked me which one I preferred.
Lin Chen zoomed in for a comparison, chose a style similar to Fruit Ninja from his previous life, and sent it over, then asked, "Approximately how long will it take to finish drawing?"
To my surprise, they replied very quickly: "One month."
"No, that's too long. Can it be done in half a month?"
"Okay, I'll rush to finish it." An Rou gritted her teeth and decided to work a few more all-nighters. Once this order was completed, she would not only be able to afford her next tuition, but also have more living expenses.
Lin Chen also started to hurry up and type in code, wishing he could have the system copy and paste his thoughts into his head.
Finally, half a month later, An Rou sent over the first set of pictures. Lin Chen looked at each one carefully and could only say that apples are apples and pears are pears, and they were very good.
Copy the images to the pic folder in the program directory, start packaging, and then export them to your iPhone for testing.
Soon, the familiar sound of slicing fruit began to ring out. After playing a few rounds, Lin Chen was quite satisfied.
After transferring the remaining money to An Rou, Lin Chen left her a message on QQ: "Senior An Rou, I might need you to draw a few more pictures after school starts. Do you have time?"
"Okay, I'll contact you then."
Lin Chen plans to release Fruit Ninja first and see the market reaction before deciding when to launch various knife-mark skins and background skins.
However, before uploading to the App Store, Lin Chen suddenly thought of a problem. In his previous life, Fruit Ninja was a buy-to-play game, which cost about $9. This buy-to-play model was widely accepted abroad, but the situation in China was not the same.
So, Lin Chen opened the code, rewrote it, and added a fatigue value system. Each game requires one fatigue value, and one point is restored for free every ten minutes. Once five points are accumulated, no more points will be restored. Of course, fatigue values can also be purchased with money, one point for one yuan, with a minimum purchase of 10 points.
After making the modifications, I repackaged and tested it. It worked perfectly. Finally, I uploaded it to the App Store's free games section and waited for approval.
Meanwhile, at Apple headquarters in the United States, Tom, an Apple employee responsible for reviewing games, was idly testing various newly uploaded games. While testing, he complained to another colleague, "Jack, I'm about to throw up. Are these shitty games even made by humans? Don't these developers know how to play them themselves first?"
Jack, with the same look of utter despair, said, "Stop talking, God, please save me! This is the fifth Tetris game I've tested today... wait..."
Suddenly there was no sound from Jack's side. Tom walked over curiously and saw Jack rapidly swiping the screen with his finger. Various fruits flew out from below the screen, and as Jack's finger slashed, scores such as "+3" and "+4" kept popping up. Soon, a minute was up, and Jack's score stopped at 275 points.
Jack turned around and was startled to see Tom behind him, but then he said excitedly, "Tom, this game is awesome, absolutely awesome, you have to try it!"
So, the two of them stopped reviewing other games and started openly slacking off. It wasn't until the head of the review team noticed that their review task count hadn't changed for half an hour and came over to check that they discovered the two were actually playing the same game.
"Tom! Jack! Don't you want to work here anymore?" The supervisor was furious.
"No, no, no, supervisor, you absolutely have to try this game. We just submitted it for review today, and I think it deserves a featured spot," Jack immediately explained.
When the supervisor heard that the application had just been submitted for review that day, he tried it out of curiosity and half an hour passed by.
The manager was delighted and immediately agreed to Jack's idea; the game definitely deserved a featured spot.
"Jack, email the creator immediately and ask them to cooperate with the promotion during the recommendation period."
"Yes, supervisor."
The next afternoon, Lin Chen saw a new email notification in his QQ mailbox. When he opened it, he found it was an email from Apple. He glanced at it briefly and couldn't understand it at all. Finally, after using translation software to translate the entire email, Lin Chen was able to understand its contents.
