CH 1

Chapter 1: Parallel world

I won’t drink again because my head hurts too much.”

Rubbing his head, Chen Xu sat up from the bed while complaining.

Kneading and rubbing some sticky eyelids, Chen Xu froze up after opening his eyes.

Because the environment in front of him is extremely unfamiliar

“Wait, here…”

Without waiting for Chen Xu to figure out what happened in the next moment, countless memories came from his mind.

It took about an hour or so for Chen Xu to sort out the memories in his mind.

Obviously, it is easy to see that as an ordinary gamer in his previous life, he not only traveled to another world but also traveled to a parallel world.

According to the memory in my mind, this world doesn’t know which node has the problem. In short, it is completely different from Chen Xu’s previous life.

All walks of life have undergone great changes with the advancement of technology.

But how big is it, Chen Xu can’t tell, What really makes Chen Xu feel the most intuitive is the game entertainment industry

After the war, the world welcomed a new age of peace. With the advent of technology, there is basically no such thing as not being able to eat enough food or cure illnesses as in my previous life. 

The economic recovery is extremely fast, People don’t worry about survival, and the entertainment industry has naturally become the main direction of development.

And the game industry belongs to the entertainment industry. In my previous life game took a very long time to develop. For a period of time, it was like a ferocious beast, and it was treated as the backup man. 

Needless to say in China, the same is true in foreign countries. Why do shootings happen so frequently? Because the game promotes violence! So supermarkets can’t take guns off shelves, we want to take down the source of shootings: games!

But in the parallel world, it is different. Excellent games can be called art, and top game designers also have the same social status as literary giants.

But at the same time, this world is a little different from Chen Xu’s previous life.

In the game field, game makers such as Ubisoft and EA disappeared, replaced by others that Chen Xu had never heard of.

As for the famous game producers in my previous life, there is no one in this world.

Hidetaka Miyazaki, who created the Soul series resigned from Oracle and entered FS, simplified the hardcore platform game, and created Masahiro Sakurai, who can be called the legendary Rendou series, Sid Meier who defined 4X games, and Hironobu Sakaguchi, the founder of the FF series. , the Hauser brothers pushed the concept of the 3D open-world to the peak, Hideo Kojima created stealth games and cinematic narrative games, and Shigeru Miyamoto was a video game hall-level producer.

These producers who have left a glorious name in the game industry in their previous lives have disappeared in this world.

And Chen Xu himself is an ordinary student who just graduated less than half a year ago and wants to join the comic industry.

“This world…is a paradise for cultural practitioners!”

recalling some memories from my mind, Plus some information from the computer, Chen Xu couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

Strict laws, as well as copyright protection for cultural products, were unimaginable in my previous life.

“Illustration?”

Through my memory and the Internet, I learned some basic information about the world, Chen Xu also noticed some drawing papers on the table.

Above are some of the illustrations I drew before.

After graduating before crossing, the original body has always wanted to become a cartoonist.

However, it is a pity that although the manuscript has been submitted many times, it has never passed the editor’s review.

As for the serialization of some comics on the Internet, it is a pity that it is not topping.

In addition to the comic manuscript fees serialized on the Internet, I also need to draw character illustrations for some novel authors and make concept maps for some game companies.

He is not famous himself, and his painting skills are not top-notch, depending on different needs.

In general, the price of a painting is about 1200. If you are forced to make changes, you will have to redo it.

“Cartoon? We don’t understand this stuff either!” Chen Xu recalled the memories in his mind, and couldn’t help but pursed his lips.

Although the memory of the original work allowed Chen Xu to understand various painting techniques, it was useless.

After all, I used to do illustration outsourcing to subsidize living expenses.

As for the comics of the previous life, Chen Xu has heard a lot of them. He knows all about One Punch Man, One-piece, Bleach, Naruto, and Detective Conan. 

But if you look at it, sorry.

He’s only seen anime, who knows how to draw those popular mangas?

“Looking at it like this, I feel like I’m going back to my old game, and the game development efficiency in this world is a little high!” Chen Xu couldn’t help but be stunned after learning about it.

Unlike the previous game companies that developed their own game engines, although overseas is basically the same model, there are officially provided game engines in China.

In addition, as we all know, game production covers many aspects, such as numerical value, art, plot, level design, and code.

But one of the most important, and the most fundamental, is the code.

It is directly related to the performance of your game and is equivalent to the skeleton.

No matter how good the gameplay is, if the code and other optimizations are not good, it can basically determine the game’s failure.

However, due to the development of IT technology in this world, artificial intelligence has also had a prototype and has been applied to all walks of life, among which games are the most changed places.

Mechanism commands and other codes are implemented through the official game engine, which is artificial intelligence.

Completely put an end to sacrificing a programmer to the game in my previous life.

If you want to make a demand to the god of heaven, Usually it is also planned to worship the gods.

Of course, convenience is convenient, but not every designer can use it indefinitely.

After all, using artificial intelligence to build code requires huge calculations.

Therefore, each game designer has fixed resources every month according to different job titles.

Of course, you can also set up a corresponding server yourself to perform separate operations, and you only need to pay the authorization fee.

It’s just that the price of setting up a server and daily maintenance is not cheap.

As for how to become a game designer, Chen Xu has three methods.

One is to participate in the examination of the game department every summer, and if you pass the exam, you can get the title of game designer.

Another way is to enter a game company, stay for two or three years, apply through the company’s channels, and report to the game department to become an official game designer.

The last one is to make an independent game that is recognized by the player market, mainly to provide a way for ordinary game lovers but non-professionals.

The sales volume has to reach 150,000, or the cumulative evaluation is 5,000 and the player’s praise is above 8.5.

Satisfy any one of the conditions.

As for brushing sales and praise, basically, there is no such thing, because this is an illegal act, and if you are caught, you will have no good fruit to eat.

“It looks very formal, but at least it shouldn’t be difficult for me to get the title of game designer.” Looking at the information he learned, Chen Xu said to himself, rubbing his chin.

After all, he is not alone. Thousands of seniors in the game industry in his previous life are standing behind him.

At this stage of large-scale games, Chen Xu never thought about it, and he lacks in all aspects of ability, resources, and funds.

But for small independent games, Chen Xu is quite confident in this one.

He knew all kinds of excellent independent games in his previous life.

After learning the relevant information about this world and reading it again, Chen Xu’s own ability is also completely sufficient.

“Wait, what is this?”

Chen Xu, who was thinking about the next thing, suddenly noticed something.

That is, on the back of his hand there is a translucent blue sphere like a birthmark.

Chen Xu rubbed his thumb up, and suddenly a transparent UI pop-up window popped out.

“system?”

In an instant, two words popped out of Chen Xu’s mind.

Thinking about it carefully, it doesn’t seem like it’s too much to send yourself a system after passing through all this, right?

But, what is the name of this system?

‘Emotion Gathering System’

Looking at the golden UI interface like a homemade web game in the previous life, Chen Xu fell into silence for a while.

It feels like it’s not a serious system.
