Almighty Game Designer Chapter 784: Preparation for the design competition

Chen Mo’s design competition is held twice a year, in March after each year, and in July during the graduation season.

The design competition in July of the graduation season is open to all current students, and all students with a college degree or above can sign up.

The design competition in March next year is mainly for designers in the industry, whether they are independent designers or designers from other companies, they can sign up to participate.

The list of participants will undergo a preliminary review. After the non-compliant participants are screened out, the other participants will go through the preliminary rounds, semi-finals and finals, and finally select the best designers.

The preliminary rounds are distributed in more than 20 major cities across the country, and the semi-finals and finals are in the capital. For this year's competition, Chen Mo is considering renting a venue in the Imperial Capital. After the completion of the new headquarters next year, he can go to the new headquarters to hold it.

These two times have also been considered. In July, the graduates had just graduated and were still looking for a job in desperation. In March, there will be a routine wave of resignations in the IT industry, with many capable designs. The division will choose to find another way out during this time.

Moreover, the staggering of the two times also ensures the fairness of the competition. Graduates will not mix with senior designers in the industry.

The difference from previous competitions is that the designers will not know the specific topics of the competition until they arrive at the scene, and they will write design drafts and make on-site production. If it is some super large game, you can also write a more detailed design concept draft. If the judges are interested in the concept draft, you can continue to make it.

When it comes to the semi-finals and finals, designers will design games in the official venues, which may last a week or even a month, which is enough time for them to develop medium-sized or even large-scale games.

The judges of these design competitions are some senior independent designers on the Thunder game platform, such as Li Feng, Zhou Haibin, Qiu Hengyang and so on.

These designers have been cooperating with Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform for a long time. They have their own representative works and are very happy to participate in this game design competition. On the one hand, Chen Mo and Chen Mo have made some contributions to the development of the entire game industry. On the other hand, they are also showing their faces to the public. After all, this game design competition may be broadcast live. Many players, game enthusiasts and People in the industry will watch it.

...Madam ordered General Zhi not to run.

Specific competition rules need to be formulated in detail, but Chen Mo's idea is very clear, that is to make Thunder Interactive Entertainment's game design competition the largest, fairest, most professional, and promising design competition in China.

He hopes that this design competition can capture all the outstanding graduates who want to enter the game industry, as well as outstanding independent designers in the industry, so that this design competition will ignite people’s enthusiasm for the game industry and also serve as a mutual entertainment The existence of large-scale job fairs.

As for the rewards of the competition, it is naturally the most generous.

In addition to the regular bonuses and prizes, Chen Mo will look through all the designer's works that have entered the finals, and decide who he wants to send invitations to.

Of course, there are many senior designers as judges in the competition. They have their own judgments on the works, and the competition will also have corresponding rules. And Chen Mo's preferences are independent of all the judges. Even if a designer is not optimistic by all the judges, it is enough if Chen Mo feels OK.

The designers whom Chen Mo likes can choose by themselves, or join Thunder Interactive Entertainment as employees, or become independent game designers to cooperate with Thunder Game Platform.

These two options have their own advantages and disadvantages. As an independent designer, the income will be very unstable, but you can design games independently. The Thunder game platform will have a special recommendation mechanism for these people, so that more players can understand these designs Teachers and their works.

Whether it is an employee of Thunder Interactive Entertainment, or an independent game designer approved by Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform, they can all get a place in the new headquarters of Thunder Interactive Entertainment.

This also paved the way for Chen Mo's future planning.

So far, Chen Mo's team has remained at a relatively small scale. When he is making games, he will also choose the best one based on the team's situation.

However, future games will inevitably develop on a larger scale.

In terms of the size of the current office area of ​​the new headquarters, the existing Thunder Mutual Entertainment employees may not be full of one-tenth of a large floor, and the rest is room for expansion.

In the future, Chen Mo may develop an extremely large world, or even a diverse collection of many worlds. Nirvana Rebirth: Evil King Proud Concubine

For example, in some networks, players can freely travel through many worlds for adventure. Each world has different tasks and mysteries. In all worlds, there is a unified will that controls...

Obviously, no matter how complicated and huge the game is, it is designed by the designer bit by bit, and the entire R&D team is produced bit by bit. There is no possibility of opportunism.

If you want to develop this kind of game, it is impossible for Chen Mo to complete all the worlds by himself. This requires an extremely large R&D team to be responsible for all parts in order to truly do it well.

So, Chen Mo is now recruiting these excellent designers to prepare for the future. If you want to design this "unlimited flow" game world independently, then these excellent designers can each be responsible for a world, and Chen Mo only needs to check the last one and screen one by one.

Even if these large-scale games are not made in the short term, these designers can develop their own works individually without any delay.

……

That's why ~IndoMTL.com~ At present, only Chen Mo in China is qualified to hold such a large-scale game design competition.

Because of the appeal.

Currently, none of the domestic designers can achieve Chen Mo's appeal.

Chen Mo has successful works in various game fields. He has made competitive games that have become popular all over the world, and he has also made boutique VR games and won the best of the year. For other designers, Chen Mo is the strongest designer in China. At the same time, Thunder Interactive Entertainment has sufficient funds and strong channels. With a large number of players in hand, the appeal is naturally self-evident.

After roughly finalizing the rules of the game design contest, it's almost time to warm up.

March after the year will not be held for the time being, because the competition rules for designers in the industry are more complicated and there is not enough preparation time.

Thunder Interactive Entertainment’s first game design competition is scheduled for July next year, but before that, it can be released in advance so that those graduates who are interested in participating will prepare in advance and make this game design competition As one of the life choices after graduation.
