I Just Want Players to Save Money, They Insist on Giving Me!

Ke Jin transmigrated into an era where gaming was in utter chaos. Everyone here deeply believed in the notion of buying happiness with money, as game companies ran wild with various schemes to trick and force players to spend. As a game enthusiast from his past life, Ke Jin felt like he was in a world without sunlight. Luckily, he obtained the Free Game Production System! Players could get the ultimate reward of the "Complete Collection of All Game Design Schemes" without spending a single cent! Not spending money? How hard could that be? Heap on the benefits! Give away 50 consecutive draws during the summer heatwave! Give away 100 draws on the second day after the server opens! Due to the game reaching 50 daily active users, we are issuing a cool skin set originally priced at 999! The planner's niece just turned 17 years and three months plus 7 days old, so we're giving away 50,000 crystals! My sincerity is almost flooding the players. Surely nobody will spend now, right? Secretary: Mr. Ke, good news! Our newly launched game has just reached over a hundred million in daily transaction volume on its first day! Ke Jin: Huh? How is that good news... No, what about the other game? The one where we give full 100-99 discount vouchers upon starting, isn't its sales terrible? Looking puzzled, the secretary said while anticipating the boss's reaction: They've been shouting things like 'what a conscientious company' and 'if we don't spend, they'll go bankrupt,' so they just topped up. That game sold a whopping one hundred million copies globally. Congratulations on making a billion! "......" At 3:30 a.m., lying in bed, Ke Jin was wide awake, unable to sleep. He posted a status: Please, I beg you, stop spending. You guys are really making it hard for me... Player: Understood, Mr. Ke is hinting life is hard, brothers, let's step up! Charge it!

Chapter 4: With a Sister Like This, Who Can Sleep at Night!_2

Translator: 549690339

Produces 5 units of dust per second.

After creating a few stones, Ke Jin held several hundred units of dust, clicked on the Thunder and Lightning section, and chose the "Chaos" feature.

Consuming 1 unit of dust increases the production rate of thunder and lightning by +1

After clicking, the current production speed of thunder and lightning reached 2/s

This effectively shortened the production time of the ancient bacteria in the neighboring Particle section.

Originally, to produce 2 units of ancient bacteria, even with an abundance of cyanobacteria, you would have to wait at least 2 seconds.

Now, it only takes one second to produce 2 units of ancient bacteria.

He then consumed another 10 units of dust, upgrading "Chaos" to level 2.

The production speed of thunder and lightning reached 3/s

The efficiency of ancient bacteria production became even faster!

Back and forth like this, an element that might have taken half an hour to unlock under normal circumstances.

Was unlocked again within a few short minutes.

"Spores"

Production: 8 ancient bacteria/s

Description: Reproductive cells that develop into a new individual after detaching from the parent body.

...

In addition to this, the dust section also saw several rapid upgrades.

It went from the original stones to boulders, then to small celestial bodies, and has now unlocked satellites.

The dust production efficiency of satellites has already reached tens of thousands per second.

This again allows for the level of thunder and lightning to be elevated!

In less than 10 minutes, the thrill of nearly 10 swift level-ups truly gave the audience another intense burst of excitement.

The bullet comments became active once more, and the number of viewers rose from less than 100 to nearly 200.

There were even some viewers who sent a few dollars' worth of small gifts as encouragement.

However, the novelty of the Iron Triangle section would not last forever.

After streaming for a while longer, Ke Jin noticed the patience of the audience was gradually wearing thin.

Just as he was lamenting in the live broadcast that it was getting a bit dull...

He smiled slightly and once again clicked on the fourth panel that had just been unlocked.

"Wisdom"

"What the? There's more stuff??" Seeing the newly unlocked panel, the audience couldn't help but exclaim.

"Is this their first time making a game? So many surprises?"

"Feels like this main package is always just right. Whenever the viewers are about to get tired, he can always pull out some new trick from the game."

"Damn, he's got a handle on our psychology..."

Moreover, the Wisdom section was different from the previous Iron Triangle.

It was not just about combining and upgrading.

Its function was to directly acquire profits!

In the Wisdom panel, there were options for thought, technology, brain, and nerves.

Among them, thought's function was to produce wisdom points.

The brain was the container for holding wisdom.

Nerves were about improving the efficiency of wisdom production.

And technology could be understood as a store for purchasing items with wisdom.

"If during the upgrade process, you all find yourselves particularly in need of thunder and lightning, or dust, or particles, you can click on the technology panel," Ke Jin explained as he demonstrated. "For instance, we now need 5000 units of thunder and lightning to combine 5 spores. But our production speed is only 50/s."

"Normally, we would have to wait 100 seconds, but you can use 10 points of wisdom in advance to buy 5000 units of thunder and lightning, just like this..."

As he spoke, Ke Jin used the freshly produced 10 wisdom points to buy thunder and lightning, then instantly combined 5 spores, saving a full 100 seconds.

"In addition, wisdom can also be used to claim idle profits in advance. Our technology level is currently low, with 500 wisdom points granting half an hour's total profits. As technology levels up later, it will grant more."

After these words, the chat was exploding.

"My test! This game looks fun... where can I download it?"

"For real, I wasn't tempted by the earlier stuff, I mean, watching the streamer play until now, I realized that it takes half a day to unlock something new, and I hate waiting. But hearing that wisdom can directly claim profits got me excited! That point is very attractive to me!"

"Indeed, who doesn't like getting paid early?" one viewer precisely summarized.

"Streamer lord, may I ask where can I play this game you've made?" The comments went from initial mockery and jesting to respect, with everyone calling him "Streamer lord."

"Is this game buy-to-play or does it have in-game purchases? Is it expensive? I'm a student and don't have much money for in-game spending..." someone asked.

Ke Jin knew after all the groundwork laid earlier, the viewers were now motivated to try the game.

Now would be a good time to promote it, leading them to WWgame.

But it wasn't enough.

He needed to drop another bombshell.

To turn those still on the fence into eager players.

And those already eager into people who can't wait to play right now!

"Hold on, everyone. There are hidden panels in this game we can't show in the broadcast due to time constraints," he said.

These words sparked another small explosion in the chat.

"What???"

"There's more??"

"Dang, I was already getting antsy at the Wisdom section, and now you're telling me there are even deeper hidden panels?"

"Alright alright, this is how you make a game!"

"I can't wait to play this game!"

Ignoring the excitement brewing in the chat, Ke Jin continued nonchalantly, "Other than enhancing the gaming experience, once you accumulate 10,000 wisdom points, you can unlock an additional hidden panel—Big Bang."

"Big Bang will reset our entire game progress. Everything starts over from scratch."
