Start a company to make games

Chapter 49 I bumped on purpose, is there a problem?
After sincere and warm applause, Xiao Lin asked cautiously: "Then boss, what is our new game?"

What is Liu Xiong's new game?
Liu Xiong once thought about making online games, because online games are the fastest money earners on earth.

It's a pity that online games in this world are severely restricted, and Feimeng's technical capital is not very strong, so Liu Xiong decided to make a relatively simple game.

And this relatively simple game can just go head-to-head with the Ice Ghost game group!

Of course, Liu Xiong is not purely acting on his own will.

Before making a decision, Liu Xiong also did a lot of market research. The result of the survey is: Although there are similar games on the market, the game he is about to make also has its own unique features and appeal.

A new game with this unique quality has the potential to succeed in this game-crazed alternate world.

Liu Xiong opened a PPT.

Before the projection broadcast, Liu Xiong said: "The red alert of the blood lion is because the capital and technology are not in place, so it can't show its full demeanor."

"This time, we are going to make a slightly simpler game, but although the game is simple to make, it is rich in content and extremely playable."

Everyone was aroused by Liu Xiong's curiosity, and stretched their necks to look at the projection on the wall.

Liu Xiong smiled slightly and clicked to play the PPT.

Two lines of words appeared on the projection cloth.

The first line: "Three Kingdoms War".

The second line reads: "The King of Fighters".

Kobayashi asked in surprise: "Three Kingdoms and King of Fighters? Is this going to be two games at the same time?"

Liu Xiong nodded, continued to play the PPT, and showed everyone the game materials written by Liu Xiong these days.

"Three Kingdoms War", in the era of arcade games, can be described as one of the most famous Three Kingdoms arcade games.

Perhaps only Capcom's Swallowing World is more famous than the Three Kingdoms War.

However, the era of War of the Three Kingdoms appeared later, and it is higher than Swallowing Heaven and Earth from a technical point of view, and has made great progress in terms of playability.

Liu Xiong believes that compared to Swallowing Heaven and Earth, War of the Three Kingdoms is more fun and more adaptable to modern society.

In the arcade circles in the mainland, War of the Three Kingdoms is one of the most popular games, and the arcade halls of the War of the Three Kingdoms game machines are always full.

Until now in the Internet age, War of the Three Kingdoms is often the most popular arcade game on arcade battle platforms and live streaming sites.

It can be said that War of the Three Kingdoms is a classic longevity game that has gone through the test of the market and is absolutely suitable for the Chinese market.

At the same time, Liu Xiong still can't forget the time when he fought in the arcade.

The raging fire in Chibi shattered Cao Cao's hegemony, and the struggle for hegemony among the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu kicked off... ah!

coin!

With a wave of his big hand, he slapped the button! Guan Yu fell from the sky!

How easy it is to save Adou by cutting the river...

When the army was beheading Xiahou, the rookie killer Xiahouyuan was cruel and innocent...

The organ that fell from the sky at Zhang Liao Pass...

Xu Chu's Mount Taishan overwhelmed...

Huang Gai's annoying cow mosquito...

And Cao Cao's trembling Liuhe Zhan all over the screen!
All these are deeply engraved in Liu Xiong's mind.

Although he hasn't played arcade machines for many years, Liu Xiong still goes to Seafood TV from time to time to watch the operations of live broadcast masters.

As for "The King of Fighters", its reputation on Earth is even greater.

As an arcade fighting game, King of Fighters is still releasing new works since 1994 until now!

The vitality of the King of Fighters series can be seen.

Refreshing style of painting, handsome shape, cool special effects, fun combos, a large number of characters, as well as wonderful settings and background plots, etc., King of Fighters has all the elements for success.

Famous characters in the game: Yagami, Kusanagi Kyo, Kagura Chizuru, Shiranui Mai and other characters have become extremely popular game characters, and their influence has gone beyond the King of Fighters game itself.

In East Asia, King of Fighters is extremely popular, even a head higher than Capcom's Street Fighter.

What's especially valuable is that the King of Fighters has had relatively regular competitions for many years, and masters from all over the world will dedicate wonderful fights every year.

The famous player "Children" won 11 consecutive victories in away games in the island country, which is even more shocking at home and abroad!

In the past, King of Fighters was one of the most popular games in domestic arcade halls.

After coming to the Internet age, the King of Fighters is also quite prosperous on the online battle and live broadcast platforms.

Of course, the most important thing is: "The King of Fighters" is also a fighting game.

Liu Xiong, I just want to make a fighting game, and I will fight head-to-head with your Ice Ghost game team!

There are so many classic arcade machines, but they are still active in the battle platform and live broadcast room, and the Three Kingdoms and King of Fighters are still alive in the Internet age, so they became Liu Xiong's choice.

……

After spending some time playing the PPT and introducing the characteristics of the Three Kingdoms and King of Fighters to everyone, Liu Xiong asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

Kobayashi first raised his hand and said, "This looks like an arcade game! But judging from your information, boss, these will be two very good arcade games."

Hi Dog has some doubts: "But now arcade games have declined."

Xiaokui said: "There are still quite a few game halls, but they are mainly motion-sensing games and VR games. There are really very few traditional arcade games like this."

Ye Shen also said: "Our last game was a large-scale real-time strategy game, but now we go back to make a simple arcade? I always feel a little bit unwilling."

Liu Xiong is also very clear about everyone's doubts and frustrations. After all, arcade is indeed a platform that is almost dead.

But Liu Xiong had his own considerations, so he smiled relaxedly, and Liu Xiong said: "First, whether the game is complicated or not is not the criterion for determining the level of the game. We are making arcade machines, not regressing."

"Second, the arcade is indeed gone now, but it also means that we will have no competition."

"The arcade is dead, but not completely dead. There are still arcade halls open and innovating. On the Internet, there are still many viewers paying attention to the live broadcast of arcade games."

"The mainstream game companies in the market have not made arcade games for a long time, and only some small companies are making casual puzzle arcade games."

"Our two high-quality arcade games will easily dominate this blank market."

"Third, although the Three Kingdoms and King of Fighters will be arcade games, it does not mean that there are only arcade versions. I will release the PC version at the same time, and try it on handheld and console platforms."

Liu Xiong is not stupid!
Arcade feelings can't be eaten as food!
The so-called arcade game is just a gimmick.

The bulk of the money is still in the PC and console markets.

Speaking of this, Kobayashi's eyes lit up!
"That's right! Although it's known as an arcade game, our main market sources can be PCs, consoles, and handhelds! Not to mention, these two games feel quite suitable for distribution on all platforms."

Everyone applauded Liu Xiong's statement.

The most important problem in the development of arcade games is that the arcade game market is too small, making it difficult to make a profit, or make a lot of money.

But if the Three Kingdoms and The King of Fighters can be promoted to the entire platform, then we will not be afraid of market problems at all!

After making these two relatively simple games, everyone in Feimeng has more confidence to make the games well and finely, and not give others an opportunity to take advantage of them!
Even if it is not a 3A masterpiece, as long as the sales increase, the earning power will not be bad!
At this time, Kobayashi raised his hand and asked: "The Three Kingdoms War is nothing to say, but the King of Fighters. The new game of the ice ghost game group has also been announced two days ago. It will be a fighting game called "Stone Hammer Overlord" What."

"Our King of Fighters, didn't he bump into the ice ghost game group again?" Kobayashi asked worriedly.

Liu Xiong smiled domineeringly: "Yeah, I bumped into it. I did it on purpose. Is there a problem?"
