Almighty Game Designer Chapter 23: 1 day without guests
Chen Mo sits at the bar on the first floor so that he can always see the guests outside the store.
The laptop was also moved to the bar by Chen Mo. When no guests came, he continued to play "Plants vs. Zombies" to see if there was anything that needed to be modified.
Chen Mo’s game has been in development for more than three months. From the end of August to December, it is almost winter.
The weather outside is getting colder, and the pedestrians are all trousers and jackets. Today’s weather is pretty good, there is no wind, it is very suitable for traveling.
Chen Mo played "Plants vs. Zombies" for an hour, but didn't find out what was wrong, got up and walked on the first floor of the experience store.
No guests come, it hurts a bit.
Chen Mo opened a can of Coke and sat back at the bar again.
Then he remembered, "" has passed the free period, from now on he can officially put this game on the app market.
Chen Mo intends to let "" and "Plants vs. Zombies" go online together, by the way, use the "" advertising space to promote "Plants vs. Zombies."
Actually, the hottest period of "" was the few months it first appeared. Now three months have passed. Many players who are interested in this game have already played it, and the heat has gradually faded. , It’s impossible to keep playing, so now it’s online, "" shouldn’t make much money.
As for how much money Chen Mo missed, this is not easy to estimate, because in the free trial stage, all the game data is on the side of the contest organizer, and Chen Mo himself does not know how much "" has produced. Ads.
"Forget it, just treat it as a good character."
Although I felt that I had missed hundreds of millions, Chen Mo quickly let go. There are still many opportunities to make money in the future, and he is not in a hurry.
Just then, a girl came to the door of the experience store and looked around.
This girl is dressed casually, with a thin coat and denim trousers. She looks a little older than Chen Mo. She is about 26 years old. She looks pretty, with a long pony tail. It feels more neutral and very capable.
Chen Mo said hello: "Hello."
Sister stood at the door and looked at the signboard of the experience store, and then looked at the configuration inside the store: "Are you a game designer? This is a game experience store?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Yes."
patted her chest: "Oh, that's good. I thought it was a new Internet cafe before, which made me nervous for a long time."
Chen Mo: "?"
The girl walked into the store and explained: "Oh, I am the owner of the "Zhiyuan Internet Cafe" over the corner, here to spy on the enemy."
faint, co-author is not a player, but a colleague!
Chen Mo was also a bit speechless. This girl ran an internet café by herself. She was definitely not here to experience the game. She was just to see if her shop was an internet café or an experiential shop, and whether she would steal her business.
sister smiled a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, but since you are not an Internet cafe, but an experience shop, then it's okay. We will be neighbors in the future, so you can move around more."
Internet cafes and experience stores have similar functions, but in fact there is no direct competition. Because in the experience store, players can only play the designer's work, which is equivalent to an early experience.
Designers generally don’t play other games, and players are not allowed to play other games in the experience store.
Chen Mo nodded: "It's okay, you can come and sit at any time. I shouldn't have too many customers here."
"Okay." The girl was really out of sight, and when she sat on the sofa, she was about to open a can of Coke.
Chen Mo said: "Uh... this drink is not free."
Sister put the Coke back: "Excuse me, I am used to it in my store, hehe."
Sister looked at the layout of the lobby: "Your experience store is quite spacious, just put so many machines? It's a bit wasteful."
Chen Mo said: "Well, the experience store is mainly for players to experience, not for profit, so the layout is more relaxed."
Sister said: "It's pretty good, I envy you tall designers. Oh, yes, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Zhuo Yao."
Chen Mo said: "Fortunately, my name is Chen Mo. I have a new game that hasn't been launched yet. Would you like to play it?"
Zhuoyao waved her hand: "No more, I have something to do at the Internet cafe. I took the time to sneak out, and I will come over to play another day."
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, welcome anytime."
Zhuoyao stood up and got ready to go, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "How much are you for an hour?"
Chen Mo said: "Five yuan."
Zhuoyao said with some surprise: "A little expensive, right? My internet cafe lobby area is only four yuan. You are a new experience store, should there be only two or three games?"
Chen Mo said: "There is only one game for now."
Zhuoyao reminded: "I think you should set the price a little bit low, free of charge, you are an experience store, and you don’t need to consider profitability. Your price is a bit...not very close to the people."
Chen Mo smiled: "I know, I will consider it."
Zhuoyao nodded: "Okay, then I will go first, and I will stop by another day. Come on, come on, and work out a fire game earlier, and my Internet cafe can follow you."
Chen Mo smiled: "It's easy to say."
sent Zhuo Yao away, and Chen Mo's experience store returned to a deserted state.
Chen Mo is not in a hurry, like this kind of experience store needs to accumulate, Chen Mo did not do any publicity, it is normal that no one will come to your door~IndoMTL.com~ If you want to talk about the location, the experience store is located The location is neither good nor bad. The location is indeed a bit off, but there is a community nearby, and a university farther away, there is a lot of traffic.
waited another half an hour, and a second guest came.
This buddy has some oily hair and a bit of apathy in his eyes, as if he didn't wake up too much, he looked like an internet addict.
He came to the entrance of the experience store, glanced at the sign of the "Thunder Game Experience Store", and said to himself: "Thunder Game, I have never heard of it."
This buddy took a look at the store again and asked Chen Mo: "I said, this is an experience store? Not an internet cafe?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Well, not an Internet cafe."
"Oh." The internet addicted teenager was a little disappointed, obviously he was looking for an internet cafe. Although the experience store can also play games, it can only play games from this company, and there are too few games.
Not to mention this company has never heard of it.
The internet addicted teenager hesitated and said to himself: "Forget it, there are no more places in the nearby internet cafes, or just look at this one and kill the time."
He walked into the store and took out his ID card and mobile phone: "Boss, how much do you cost for an hour?"
Chen Mo said: "Five yuan."
Internet addiction teenager was taken aback: "What? Five yuan? Uh... forget it."
The internet addict turned his head and left.
"……"
Chen Mo is a bit speechless, this buddy is really simple! It doesn't matter if you play for five dollars for an hour, right? As for turning around and leaving?
five yuan!
What can you do with five dollars this year? That is two popsicle money!
is not enough for the first charge of the game, the first charge of the game is six yuan!
……
There is no way, Chen Mo had to wait.
