Chapter 211 Publicity Warm-Up, Monthly Pass)

As the days pass by, Nebula Games has also begun to warm up "Minecraft".

While players and industry designers are discussing this sandbox trend.

With a single official blog of Chen Xu, he instantly attracted the attention of countless players and industry designers.

Chen Xu's official blog is very simple, with only three words: a new game.

Then a video link was released.

But after clicking in, the players who were originally looking forward and curious were stunned for a moment.

Because it really surprised them.

With a melodious bgm, the game screen appears.

Blue sky, white clouds, ocean, trees and beaches, from the sunset in the distance, a little man rode over a pink pig.

‘Let’s go to a world of blocks.’

With the voice of the narrator, countless blocks formed a slide, allowing the square man and the pink pig to move along the slide.

‘The only thing that limits you is your imagination.’

The next moment, the slide collapsed in the middle and scattered the blocks, but behind the block people, they spread their red wings like cloaks, and crossed the mountains through the forest.

‘Let’s go anywhere you want to go, climb the highest peaks, and dig the deepest holes.’

On the beach, a square man was placing a cube in his hand.

‘Build whatever you want, whether it’s day or night, rainy or sunny.’

Looking into the distance from the desert.

‘This will be the most meaningful sandbox game you’ve ever been involved in.’

The next moment the scene came to the huge castle.

‘Build a grand castle.’

Inside the mine cave filled with torches, there was a winding rail.

‘Research the most advanced machines and take a roller coaster.’

In the forest, several square people kept rushing the trees with axes.

‘You can play with your friends, build your community, and make the strongest armor to protect yourself.’

Facing the monsters appearing in the forest in the dark, the people in the square put on their armor and rushed over with swords.

‘War monsters at night, no one can limit your movements.’

Continuously digging holes, magma poured in from the ground.

Create a dark and mysterious portal, and behind it is a strange world.

‘There are no rules to follow, this adventure is up to you.’

Accompanied by the narration, the camera slowly took the blue sea, and at this time, a whale made of squares suddenly surfaced.

Countless blocks form the game's logo and title: "Minecraft".

[Tests start on January 3rd, and online on February 1st]

[Game price: 68 yuan]

With this promotional trailer video released, many players, including designers in the game industry, were confused.

Because no one had thought that Chen Xu would actually make a pixel game before.

"No way, it's actually a pixel game, and it looks a bit like building blocks?"

"What is Chen Xu thinking? How could he suddenly make a pixel game, and it's a way to play with building blocks?"

"I'm a little stupid, is this for children to play with?"

"I'm all stupid. Not to mention "Dark Souls" and "Two-Players", at least "Famine"! If it doesn't work, you can just send me away "Silent Hill PT", but you'll have a game of building blocks?"

"Don't rush to squirt first. I feel it's quite interesting, and it looks very free? Especially since there is no game rule in the end, don't you think it's very exciting?"

"I'm talking about it. Although it's a pixel game, it's not shoddy. Didn't you find that the pixels inside look very good? The materials are very delicate, and when they are destroyed, there are various textures that show changes. Although it's a pixel game, it actually has excellent light and shadow effects!"

"But it's because of this that I can't figure it out even more! The cost of these things will definitely not be low, which means that Chen Xu is not doing pixels to save money!?"

Not only players, but also the game industry, it also created some question marks on Chen Xu and this game called "Minecraft".

After all, it's really puzzling.

Judging from this promotional trailer, only three characteristics can be summarized.

The first feature is pixel-style games.

The second feature is that the game has similar gameplay to fighting monsters. At the same time, like the collection of materials in "Famine", the gameplay mode in this game has become a pile of blocks.

The third feature is that like "Famine", this game called "Minecraft" also supports multiplayer mode.

As for the more detailed content, it is unknown.

But the question is, where is the selling point of this game?

Survive?

There is a famine.

Kill monsters and collect resources and build buildings, and there is also famine.

Many people? There are also famines.

In addition, this picture is still pixel mode. Apart from the change in the operation view angle, there seems to be no big change!

For a moment, many game designers were full of wonder.

Based on these characteristics, they really want to directly deny "Minecraft", but the one who made this game was not the unknown little designer, but Chen Xu.

Chen Xu, who just developed "Famine" and led to a wave of sandbox game craze, can he not know?

NetDragon, in the game studio of "Wasteland", Meng Zuo also looked puzzled.

After last year's "Star God" was located in Waterloo of the year, he has also participated in many projects this year.

However, they are not the main creators, including participating in the VR test project of the game department, and have also summarized a lot.

Before, I was inspired by Chen Xu's "Famine" and decided to make a sandbox game.

So the project of "Wasteland" was established.

But he never expected that at this moment, Chen Xu actually launched another project, and it was a sandbox game that made him a little confused.

Like most industry designers, he also feels that "Minecraft" doesn't seem to have any tips on playing, but the other party is Chen Xu.

Considering Chen Xu's experience in the past two years and his private understanding of Chen Xu, he thinks that this game called "Minecraft" must have problems.

At this time, the assistant knocked on the door and walked in: "Teacher Meng, the publicity plan for "Wasteland" has been confirmed, and the launch time has been determined."

Meng Zuo took the documents from his assistant and glanced at them for a moment, but hesitated a little after seeing the time.

"Time..." Meng Zuo frowned.

Because the promotion of "Wasteland" seems to be in conflict with "Minecraft", and it is only a few days apart.

"The publicity side has stopped temporarily." Meng Zuo thought about it and said to his assistant.

Hearing Meng Zuo's words, the assistant next to him was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said, "Teacher Meng, if it is postponed now, our subsequent publicity resources will not be as many as we do now."

This time, the project of "Wasteland" has so many resources, but it mainly happened to hit Tenghua.

But if you avoid this time, it would be nothing, because this time the project of "Wasteland" is not specifically aimed at Tenghua. It is so mysterious from the outside world, but in fact, as a designer under NetDragon, Meng Zuo knew it was a coincidence.

And for companies, it is very important to ensure the sales of games.

But now, Meng Zuo is not sure about Tenghua's new work, but about Chen Xu's "Minecraft".

"No hurry... I still have time. I'll go to Tantandi and help me see if I can set a location this week." Meng Zuo told his assistant a store name, then opened his phone and found Chen Xu in the address book.
