Chapter 256 The selection begins!
Inside the Jingyue office.
Very quiet.
[Extreme Fault Tolerance Challenge] is coming to an end.
Lu Ming leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs lazily, and tapped the table with his fingers.
On the computer screen, the echo scoring software system has been completed.
This was custom-built by him outsourced before, and the entire logic core was designed entirely by him!
This software is also a key tool for scoring this Extreme Fault Tolerance Challenge!
The software interface is very simple.
An input box and a rating button.
Scoring range: 0 to 10 points
The test logic is also very clear and is made completely according to Lu Ming's intentions.
Moreover, this software reads the latest data of the current game.
Although the scores read in each time period may also be different.
But for Lu Ming, this is enough!
soon,
Lu Ming skillfully pasted the first game link in the software box.
【Evaluation Project: Time Journey】
The software started to work, and the page flashed a few times like a radar, and soon a row of data emerged.
【Time Journey】
Negative review keywords: slow pace, too difficult, pretentious, incomprehensible, pretentious
Positive keywords: Deep, emotional resonance, masterpiece, unbeatable soundtrack, time travel, multiple endings...
Crawling data...
[Echo Rating: 1.3]
"Um."
Lu Ming touched his chin.
"It's pretty much what I expected."
“This game is typical.”
"Especially since the release of the DLC, this game has been called a masterpiece by many people. No wonder you only scored a few points!"
But the problem is, with just a few points, this game is barely qualified to be on the table in the Echo Rating System.
Lu Ming shook his head.
The insults are not harsh enough, the players are not excited enough, the emotional feedback is low, and the spreadability is poor.
There are too many positive reviews, which can only drive the score down.
Lu Ming casually closed the window and opened the second test object:
Misguided Adventures
This is a hit project of Jingyue at the end of last year, which mainly features the setting of Battle Royale.
Lu Ming was a little curious.
Soon, with a click of the mouse, the ratings are refreshed:
[Echo Rating: 2.7]
“Tsk.”
Lu Ming raised his eyelids.
“More and more people are playing!”
"No way!"
Then, Lu Ming tested several other games.
"Kryptonian Cultivation", Echo Rating: 3.1
Who Owes Whom?, Echo Rating: 4.01
…
This time, Lu Ming sat up straight.
"Yes, finally, some scolding!"
"Who Owes Whom" is the only game among Whale Leap Games that has exceeded 4 points!
Lu Ming was a little touched!
It's really not easy,
After several rounds of testing,
Lu Ming also initially recognized the Echo Rating.
This thing is really useful!
Moreover, there are so many entries in this Extreme Fault Tolerance Challenge.
It is definitely unrealistic to let him experience them one by one.
But now, with the Echo system,
In less than a minute, Lu Ming can see the results!
It’s so practical!
This is simply a must-have tool for operating Whale Leap, negative review training, and screening projects!
…
A few days later,
The Extreme Fault Tolerance Challenge Competition, which lasted for more than a month, has officially come to an end!
At this moment, in the Jingyue conference room, the lights were bright, but the atmosphere was a bit subtle.
A group of game developers sat in a neat row.
There is a front-end guy wearing a plaid shirt and carrying a thermos, and there is also an art girl wearing a denim skirt and looking confused.
Some people were whispering,
"Everyone, please don't push, there are seats for everyone. You can pull the chairs in the back over here."
"Fuck, I'm so nervous!"
"To be honest, I've also tried some of the games in the new game zone. I don't know if they were created by us! It feels like they were all taught by the same master!"
“It feels like everyone is a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!”
"I'm lost! I think I've strayed off topic! The game I make isn't a competitive one!"
"Then congratulations to you too! Has anyone ever told you that if you enter the examination room a day later during the college entrance examination, you will know your results earlier than others?"
“…”
Without exception, all the people at the venue were students from the bad review training class.
Moreover, as their teacher, Lao Zhou sat in the front row.
Looking at Lu Ming on the stage, with a face full of expectation,
It will be time for the selection soon!
In the end, which work will stand out?
He can't even see it himself!
But no matter which one it is, he always has a bright face!
Just as everyone was whispering and discussing player feedback after their project went online, the door of the conference room was pushed open.
Lu Ming walked in.
He was full of energy, walked at a leisurely pace, and had his usual unhurried smile on his face.
Everyone immediately quieted down.
Lu Ming walked to the podium, smiled, looked at the faces below, and said:
"First of all, thank you all for participating in this competition."
Lu Ming stood in front, holding the remote control in his hand, and spoke calmly.
"I know that this competition has a tight timeline, heavy tasks, and somewhat demanding requirements."
"But precisely because of this, we can screen out truly groundbreaking and creative games that can produce explosive results under extreme conditions."
"We're all family, so I won't say much. Next, we'll move on to the most crucial part: the scoring."
“We received a lot of entries for this competition. Although they were all anonymous, everyone registered them with us.”
"These games have a wide variety of genres, creative gameplay, rich levels of expression, and well-placed emotional pull."
"I can honestly say that I never expected everyone's execution and innovation to be so strong."
“We’ve also seen that quite a few projects have already generated initial user buzz on the DeepBlue platform.”
He looked around:
"What does this mean?"
"This shows that our strategy for the negative review training class was successful! Everyone really learned something!"
"This is a rare ability."
As soon as he finished speaking, applause broke out in the audience.
Some people even shouted excitedly.
But Lu Ming quickly regained his composure:
"certainly."
"We are not here just to applaud today."
"We need to select."
Everyone sat up straight and looked at the projection screen in front of them.
“This time, the scoring will no longer use the traditional review mechanism.”
Lu Ming pressed the remote control, and a line of large words appeared on the screen:
【Whale Echo Scoring System】is officially launched!
Then, an extremely simple software interface appeared.
White background, an input box in the center, a blue button, and a label next to it:
【Echo Scoring System】
The entire conference room suddenly became quiet.
"Echo Scoring System?"
"What the hell? I've never heard of it!"
"Doesn't the DeepBlue platform have a dedicated scoring mechanism?"
"Everyone, please be quiet."
Lu Ming smiled.
"Let me briefly explain the rules."
“This is a data-feedback-driven scoring tool we developed internally.”
"I know, it sounds a bit awkward."
"I designed this scoring system myself, and it involves many key indicators!"
"This includes many elements such as game evaluation, dissemination, playability, and influence."
"Furthermore, due to the special nature of this software, it will not be made publicly available. This software will only serve as an independent, private internal scoring system!"
"Also, I've already tested this software in advance, and its fairness and practicality are absolutely flawless!"
Lu Ming did not explain too much, but went straight into the demonstration session.
"Next, I will gradually enter your game links into the system and rate them. The rating range is 0-10 points. The value is not an absolute assessment, but a relative reference. Please don't be too nervous."
"Also, the scoring time is based on the current time!"
"Okay, now let's start the formal scoring."
“…”
