Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 386 Running in an outrageous direction

Chapter 386 Running wildly in an outrageous direction

The total development time for this handheld console is up to two years.

After Yuxing's new building is successfully constructed in two years, the new handheld console will be officially released to the public as a way to celebrate.

Therefore, Zhuyouxing requires the engineering development department to develop a game development kit for the new handheld console as soon as possible, so that its own game development team can develop new games on the new handheld console as soon as possible.

 It is initially planned to provide a first version of the new handheld development component within two months.

 The average development time for a game has now been extended to more than a year.

Most employees also believe that one year of development time is just right. They will not be too tired and can use their creativity as much as they want.

 They also feel that one year of game development time is already quite long.

 But this is because they have not really experienced how complex the production process of future top 3A games is, otherwise they would not think that one year of game development is already a long time.

 After the meeting, Zhu Youxing went directly to the game development floor. He was going to take a look at some of the recent game development progress of the game development teams.

 The first development team has been working **** Dragon Quest.

 And at Zhu Yusei’s suggestion, he began to create some derivative games based on the Dragon Quest IP.

Recently they are developing a Dragon Quest business simulation game.

  Telling about a store in a parallel time and space that provides all services to brave men around the world.

 Any brave man from different time and space can come to this store accidentally and choose his own products.

This is equivalent to allowing all series of heroes to come out and do a linkage. This game was quite interesting to players when it was first announced.

 To be honest, Zhu Youxing is also quite interested, and he is also waiting to play.

 Dragon Quest has never developed a business simulation game in its previous life, so it is quite special. It is considered unique to this world, so Zhu Yusei is interested in it.

Furthermore, he is the boss and can play it in advance at any time. However, in order to maintain a sense of anticipation, Zhu Youxing decided to wait until the game is actually developed before experiencing it, leaving it as a semi-finished product.

 The second, third, and fourth development teams usually specialize in developing various independent IP works that were popular in previous lives for Zhu Youxing, the kind of IP that usually only produces one or two works.

Then occasionally Zhuyusing will assign three of their teams to develop the Mario series.

 As the flagship of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, it must have sufficiently experienced developers to participate in its development, otherwise it will not be a good thing to have bad reputation.

Mario in his previous life had few bad reputations, and Zhu Yuxing didn’t want to lose face when he came to this world.

Now the three teams are developing several previously niche sports games, including the Hot Blood series and Super Baseball Series.

 The fifth development team is now working on a new Final Fantasy work, but it is not Final Fantasy 8.

 Final Fantasy 8 may not be as famous as Final Fantasy 7 in the original world, but it is still a high-quality game, and it also inherits high-quality CG animation and plot.

But this does not require Zhu Yuxing to participate in the development step by step. He only needs to give a rough setting and let them create the rest by themselves.

 The development cycle of Final Fantasy 8 will inevitably be very long, so we can also make some derivative works during this process.

　　For example, Final Fantasy Tactics A was once very popular on GBA.

The Strategy Edition directly overturns the previous turn-based combat gameplay of Final Fantasy and uses a brand new war chess style gameplay, which is lighter to play. Coupled with the image of the Q version, it has attracted a wave of new fans of the Final Fantasy series. .

It just so happens that the first development team is also preparing to launch the Dragon Quest business simulation game on the GBA. The two parties are planning to compete internally from different angles, which will also promote the improvement of the capabilities of the two development teams.

The Sixth Development Team has no game development plans recently. They recently launched a game on GS1 that uses motion sensing to shoot guns. This team likes game development based on various new technologies. Zhuyouxing also encourages different teams to develop games. Different styles.

  Nearly all members of Team 7 and Team 9 are currently away from the company. They seem to be running out to do pre-development research on various games.

For example, some go to a certain kendo gym to learn kendo, some go climbing and rock climbing, and some even play parkour. In short, there are all kinds of things.

  Many employees from the two teams participated in the development of Street Fighter before. Under the influence of Zhu Youxing’s philosophy, if you want to develop an excellent game, you must first learn the relevant majors of this game.

If you want to create a new fighting game, then learn new fighting moves.

 Obviously, these employees heard this and decided to go out collectively to collect materials.

 Zhu Youxing seriously doubted that they were paid to go out for fun.

But that’s not a problem, as long as they make good games, it doesn’t matter what they do.

The eighth development team is even more exaggerated. Recently, the engineering development department has just developed a racing steering wheel handle suitable for GS1. After several iterations, this steering wheel handle can be said to be excellent enough.

Now these employees are obsessed with playing the latest Need for Speed ​​with the steering wheel on the GS1.

They didn't even notice that Zhu Youxing was standing behind them, and they were still concentrating on playing the racing game together.

Zhu Youxing gradually felt that these employees seemed to be running in outrageous directions, but this was also the cultural state of the company. They worked easily, but they also had to be serious and focused when developing games. Zhu Youxing generally did not impose too many restrictions. .

 The final tenth development team was much more normal.

 They happen to be at a critical stage of development.

The original Wario production gave them a lot of creative inspiration, allowing them to start using their imagination to create more interesting games.

This development team is also the team with the least participation from Zhu Youxing. He just hopes that this team can have more ideas of his own.

The game they recently developed is a game that can use the motion sensing function of GS1 to do sports. What they do every day is to work **** adjusting the value of the motion sensing.

 Somatosensory sports games are also one of the development directions of GS1. The purpose is to target non-player groups. Zhuyouxing has been encouraging the teams to develop more similar games. Team 10 is obviously very interested.

After roughly inspecting the status of the ten groups, Zhu Youxing felt that his company should be relatively safe. Although several groups were doing something a little outrageous, the problems were not too big. So, since the employees are all It's very safe. Should I also consider making a new game?

 What should be done?

 Zhu Youxing began to think seriously.
