Chapter 53: Fortnite

Having decided which game he was going to make, Alex wasted no time and started development on that game.

Unlike when he was making Minecraft, this time Alex didn't have to worry about not having enough GP.

When he made Minecraft, Alex only had enough GP for him to put in some shaders and other simpler settings, and then with the game's sales increasing he added more stuff to the point that Minecraft reached the state it is today.

But this time it would be different, Alex wasn't going to spend all the GP he had making this game, at least he didn't intend to spend all the GP he had at once.

[Battle Royal Basic - 2,000 Gaming Points.] [Advanced Battle Royal - 20,000 Gaming Points.] [Battle Royal Triple A - 200,000 Gaming Points.]

Without a second thought Alex chose to do a Battle Royal Triple A for 200,000 Gaming Points.

As soon as he spent that money, in the game development program a lot of features were unlocked for him to use.

Weapons, vests, helmets, scenery elements, countless different things appeared for Alex.

Now that he had experience in game development, it was much easier for Alex to start developing this new game.

First he started developing the game's map.

One thing Alex knew was very important for the game was that there were landmarks on the map, like a school, a few small towns scattered around, a chair, a factory, forests, rivers, and many other things.

As the game was made to be played in a virtual reality instead of a computer screen, Leo had to enlarge the size of the map to make everything a little more realistic, but he didn't increase it much so that the duration of the games wouldn't be longer. very large.

The idea of using a flying school bus to bring players in was something Alex found very creative and also decided to use.

So Alex focused on the game developer and didn't even notice how many hours had passed in real life. When his belly was already begging for food Alex finally snapped back to reality with a satisfied smile.

"Okay, even though the game is not ready, I can already start promoting the game to attract players interested in playing." Alex said as he started to plan how he could make an interesting trailer.

"Hahaha, he's going to be pissed when he finds out about this, but it's going to be really funny." Alex came up with a genius idea to attract both the Minecraft audience to the new game and to attract a new audience.

In a luxurious Malibu mansion, a man was working with some mechanical components while listening to some classic rock songs.

The way this man worked with these components was very skillful, as if this man had been used to doing this sort of thing for several years.

Suddenly the man remembered something and asked aloud to the void. "Jarvis, tell me, what did you find out about Minecraft?"

Then a voice came from the speakers where the music was being played. "Unfortunately I couldn't crack the Minecraft source code, Mr Stark, not even their website could be hacked."

Hearing this the man finally stopped what he was doing and asked once more. "What's the latest Minecraft news?"

"According to reports around the world, the amount of people paying to play Minecraft is growing exponentially. It is estimated that in the near future the game could reach a volume of at least one billion dollars in sales." Jarvis replied respectfully.

Hearing this, the man, Tony Stark, raised an eyebrow in surprise. He never imagined that a game company could grow so much in such a short time, especially with technology that not even Jarvis could decipher!

Doesn't that mean that this game company's technology is even better than that of Stark Industries?

"Jarvis, what's the name of the company that produced Minecraft?" Tony asked.

"The company is called Mojang, Mister Stark." Jarvis replied.

Hearing the company name Tony thought aloud. "Mojang… if I'm not mistaken this is Swedish. What does Mojang Jarvis mean?"

"Mojang means Gadget in English, Mister Stark."

"Is the company Swedish?" Tony asked.

"The location of the company has not yet been confirmed."

Hearing these details, Tony could no longer think of any other way to further study this company with technology as inexplicable as Minecraft's other than playing the game.

"Jarvis, buy me Minecraft, I plan to test this game to see how it works." Tony ordered.

"Mr Stark, I think it might be more interesting for you to play something other than Minecraft." Jarvis persuaded.

Tony was confused and asked. "Because?"

Jarvis explained. "Maybe you're interested in the trailer for their next game."

Before Tony could ask another question, a trailer appeared on the big screen in the garage where he was.

In the trailer, a movie began to play. Tony was surprised by the image quality of this film, not even movie cameras could record something with such a good image.

But when Tony saw the small print in the corner of the screen he was surprised.

[Actual gameplay footage.]

'This is not a movie with real people, but a game graphic?! Not even Minecraft has such good graphics, is this Mojang's new game?' Tony mentally asked himself as he continued to watch.

In the trailer, a group of four people were coming out of a shed with the camera focused on their backs. A woman in a hoodie, a woman in a pink teddy bear costume, a retro blue robot, and a man with a banana head wearing a stylish suit.

Each of the four was holding a heavy weapon in their hands as the light outside the shed grew brighter.

Until the moment they left the shed it was possible to see a man flying in front of them wearing red and gold armor with a bright chest and eyes.
