===250 Different Development Thinking===(None Edited)

  The leak of the news is a little surprising, but Yuxing Zhu takes it seriously.

  Now it's just a small thing that suddenly leaked, but if it is not managed well, there will only be more information leaked in the future.

  This has a great impact on the overall development of the company, and it will also reduce the expectations of players.

  However, the production of Mario Kart still needs to move forward.

  "This time, the racing game we need to make is not a more exciting game like Need for Speed, but a more cartoon style." Take Yusei is

  standing in front of a blackboard, making his own Mario Kart racing game. Concept articulated.

  "President, do you mean that it is intended for children to play?"

  "No, it is not entirely for children. I intend to define this game as a family-friendly game." Zhu Yuxing explained.

  Everyone looked at each other.

  Family game?

  This is a relatively novel statement, but it is also easy to understand. It is something that the whole family can play together.

  "My plan is that Mario Kart will support up to eight people playing at the same time, so we need to make an online system similar to GB, which requires the cooperation of people from the engineering development team, so this time I also put Several people from the engineering development team called over."

  Several engineers dressed differently from the game developers stood up to greet the crowd.

  "They will cooperate with our game production and provide an eight-player online play method, so that more people can participate."

  "President, do we need to connect eight game consoles? This is a bit outrageous."

  A man said strangely.

  Eight game consoles means that at least eight boxes of Mario Kart games are required to play together, and this cost alone may not be affordable for ordinary families.

  "No, I'm going to use a brand new way of playing the game, which is a four-split screen."

  Zhu Yuxing wiped the blackboard again, then drew a pattern similar to a screen on the blackboard, and then placed the pattern on the screen. Neatly cut out four partitions.

  "I'm going to have a console that can show four different players driving at the same time, and then get to the point where a console can play at least four people at the same time, and then it's only two consoles, and eight The handle and the line for online can complete the eight-player game."

  Everyone's eyes widened slightly, they really didn't think of this method just now.

  Is it really possible to do that?

  Then the problem can be solved.

  There are only two game consoles, so this kind of consumption will not be too prohibitive.

  If anyone is planning to hold a small party, three or four children can also have a great time with a game console. If there are eight people, they can also have children from other families bring their game consoles to play together, or a It is not unacceptable for ordinary families to buy two game consoles directly.

  In Japan, the price of an SFC is not expensive, it is more than half cheaper than that in the United States, and then the price of the handle and cassette, in order to make the children happy, parents will not be too stingy.

  This is actually another way to increase your income.

  This degree is just right.

  At this time, an employee raised his hand and asked: "Then President, the next problem we need to overcome in the game is how to ensure the stability of the game under the four-point screen?"

  Zhu Yuxing nodded: "This is one of the points, and this Racing is not simple racing, the game itself has to have a certain amount of fun, and it also needs to give some handicapped players some hope, so that they can also beat the advanced players, making the game more uncertain."

  Sometimes . Adding a certain random attribute to a game will greatly reduce the competitive effect, but the entertainment effect will increase many times.

  The later generations of mobile game krypton gold draw cards are also in a similar form, but they are more red fruit and more direct.

  Then Take Yusei again drew a few props that appeared in Mario Kart on the blackboard.

  Some props will slow down the first place, some props will help the first place to win faster, and some props will harm others and themselves, in short, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

  "These props are just a rough example I gave. Now I need to ask you to come up with a sufficiently balanced prop system as much as possible, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of different operating car characters. This is a numerical adjustment. These are the The core part of this game."

  Mario Kart's mutually reinforcing characteristics are also the golden sign of the game's success.

  Of course, Zhu Yuxing can directly take out the most complete game data of the previous Mario Kart, and then let these people do it like a cat and a tiger.

  But this is actually not good for the creative thinking of people in this world.

  This is just a numerical balance adjustment. There is no need to re-enact the games of the previous life. Let the game developers in this world think for themselves and find ways to solve the problem, which will be more conducive to their growth.

  Everyone nodded slightly. They already had some ideas, but it took a while to try.

  Fortunately, they have the experience of constantly adjusting the test data when developing Street Fighter. This aspect has been used for a long time, but the test data this time will be very different from the data of Street Fighter, and they need to change their thinking.

  At the same time, we will once again cooperate with the engineering department that develops the hardware.

  The previous Super Metroid actually had some cooperation, but it only helped to make a cassette with an independent chip, and it was not integrated with the gameplay of the game, so the two sides were still working separately at the time.

  But this time, it is obvious that the gameplay has to be bound to the hardware itself, and they also need to cooperate with each other for research and development.

  From here, it once again reflects the benefits of Zhuyouxing's one-man management.

  He said East, but no one dared to say West, or they didn't even think about questioning it, and now they all take Zhu Yuxing's words for granted.

  At this point, the game development officially started, and the entire development cycle took about four months, and then it was officially released.

  At first, it was as Zhu Yuxing imagined. Because of the name Mario, many players would choose to buy it without hesitation. However, those who have played Need for Speed ​​feel that Mario Kart is a bit naive, but it is still more interesting. Yes, it's just that the fun doesn't last long.

  Because most of the purchases are basically played by themselves, and few of them get together to play, which is tantamount to obliterating the greatest fun of this game.
