Almighty Game Designer Chapter 562: New mobile game
The most straightforward solution is to let the player touch the screen, but although this solution looks very beautiful, in fact the operation feels very bad. The main problem is tiredness and inaccuracy.
If it’s on a tablet, it’s relatively friendly when the player taps on the screen with their hands, but after all, most people play games with their mobile phones. Who can run around holding a tablet?
Furthermore, the hand points will be very tiring, because in the game players have to carry out frequent replenishment and attack operations, and they also have to move.
On the PC side, players can use the mouse to complete these operations easily, but on the mobile game platform, just relying on the hands will appear to be frantic.
The other aspect is the game rhythm. The normal game of "League of Legends" is basically about 30 minutes, but some games may be delayed to 50 minutes or even longer.
Obviously, this time is difficult for mobile game players to accept.
Many designers believe that this time should be further shortened, or even reduced to about 20 minutes, but there is no good design plan for how to shorten it.
Some designers hope to speed up the pace of the game, including reducing the HP of defensive towers and wild monsters, increasing the player's attack power and upgrading speed, etc.
But this will bring new problems, because the numerical system of "League of Legends" is a very complete data system, changing any place may cause the game's rhythm to collapse.
For example, considering that the HP of the defensive tower is too high and the pace of the game is slower, will the reduction of the HP of the defensive tower cause certain speed-push heroes to become too powerful?
This kind of weakening is likely to cause a result, that is, the rhythm of the game has not slowed down, but some heroes have become too strong...
So, adjusting the rhythm of the game is a very systematic task. It involves all aspects of the game, including game mechanics, hero skills, etc. It does not mean that you can just adjust some attributes to bring out your own ideas. The desired result.

Emperor Dynasty Interactive Entertainment headquarters, Lin Chaoxu's office.
Qiu Bin smiled all over his face.
Lin Zhaoxu was in a good mood, and said to Qiu Bin: "Well, yes, the performance of "The Oracle of the Moon" ported to the mobile platform is very good. After it went online, it has successfully topped the best-selling list. Your designer level I should mention it too."
Qiu Bin said with a smile: “Yes, it’s the blessing of President Tolin. In fact, this time I transplanted "The Oracle of the Moon" to the mobile platform and made some design changes, but in general , The foundation of this game is good!"
"Moon God's Oracle", as one of the signature products of the emperor's mutual entertainment, was originally a dual-end game of pc and vr. But in the past two years, this game has been impacted by "League of Legends" on the PC side, and by other games on the VR side. Various data have been declining year by year.
Many people can clearly feel that rpg games are no longer the same.
In the upsurge of changing PC games to mobile games, the emperor and dynasty mutual entertainment are not far behind. This time Lin Zhaoxu also specially asked Qiu Bin to do it himself and changed "The Moon God's Oracle" into a mobile game.
Although Qiu Bin is not an S-level designer, he is the person who is best at designing mobile games in Dichao Interactive Entertainment. Lin Zhaoxu has high hopes for entrusting this project to him.
Relatively speaking, it is not too complicated to change "The Oracle of the Moon God" into a mobile game, because there are already existing art resources on the PC side. Qiu Bin only needs to modify these resources and reduce the capacity. Then make some design changes based on the characteristics of the mobile game platform.
After it went live, "The Oracle of the Moon" performed very well, successfully reaching the top of the mobile game bestseller list, and many PC and VR players who have abandoned the pit, even through various old players recall missions To the mobile game platform.
This was an unexpected joy for Lin Zhaoxu. Originally, he was just holding a try, but he didn't expect to be so successful.
Lin Chaoxu praised Qiu Bin, and Qiu Bin himself was very proud, and when he came out of Lin Chaoxu's office, he was still full of spring breeze.
"It feels like my life is getting better and better since Chen Mo left the mobile game platform!" Qiu Bin thought.
Thinking about the tragic experience of Jin Jieguang on the pc platform, Qiu Bin felt relieved. Sure enough, Chen Mo is just like a catastrophe. It's not easy for anyone to encounter it!
But having said that, Chen Mo has recently become popular on the vr platform, and he has even made the game in foreign markets and has received high praise.
Qiu Bin couldn't help feeling sighed because of this. He was so plain when he first debuted, who would have thought that Chen Mo would step by step to where he is now?
"Fortunately, that guy has gone to the VR platform. If I continue to stay on the mobile game platform, then my life is really difficult." Qiu Bin said with emotion.
After Chen Mo used the two pioneering card mobile games "My name is mt" and "Onmyoji" to upset the entire card market, nothing particularly disruptive mobile games appeared.
Although there are games like "Surrounding the Land"~IndoMTL.com~, they are not as groundbreaking as the first two, and their influence is far behind. Many designers think that Chen Mo is probably disdainful of playing with them in the field of mobile games.
This is a good thing for most designers, after all, no one wants their game to be related to Chen Mo's game...
You can’t crash with Chen Mo...
……
In the experience store, Chen Mo called everyone for a meeting.
In fact, the news about the sequel to "Dark Souls" has long been released, and everyone is looking forward to it.
Although not many people in the game of "Dark Souls" can really play through the level, but this does not affect everyone's love of it. Isn't video level clearance also considered as level clearance?
However, in anticipation, everyone is a little puzzled, because "Dark Souls" is currently completed at a very high level. According to Chen Mo's personality, a successful game is generally not so fast after a sequel. of.
There are also some players who joked in private that "Chen Mo can't be number two", because since Chen Mo started to develop the game to now, it seems that there have been few sequel games...
Even an evergreen game like "Warcraft", Chen Mo seems to have no plans for a sequel...
Is this sequel to "Dark Soul" really new? If it is just like a dlc, I am afraid it is difficult to satisfy the players.
Chen Mo looked at everyone present: "Let me talk about the next stage of the development plan. The first is about the "Dark Soul" prequel, everyone should know this, mainly using "Dark Soul" Some of the current resources and designs are just changes in some details."
"One more thing is...While developing the prequel to "Dark Souls", we will develop a mobile game."
