The booth of the Peach Production Group is less than ten square meters, and only two computers can play games are placed. By the way, some characters designed for themselves are sold. This kind of peripheral should be very good when the Hulk Knight became popular, but now this production team is not very famous, so there are almost no people queuing up.

After communicating with the fat leader, I learned that there were only three people in their studio, one in the main process, one in the main beauty and one in the main strategy. However, the work division of the small studio is not so detailed. In addition to being the main strategy, the fat leader is also responsible for the operation and implementation of some program codes, and at the same time, he did some art LOGO designs. At first glance, he was a very versatile producer...

"There are three people..." Jiang Yueling looked around, "But I see, are there only one person you are busy?"

"A man was dumped by his girlfriend yesterday and was crying at home."

"What about the other?"

"The other one found a girlfriend yesterday and is now dating outside."

“…”

Jiang Yueling was about to ask, but the fat leader quickly waved, "It's not a girlfriend! If so, our studio will collapse."

"Then your love life is more stable..." An Ruosu started teasing the fat leader again, "How many years are you still missing to advance to the great magician, are you?"

"Don't dig into this, okay..." The fat leader wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned to look at Su Mo. "I heard from Sister An before that, do you have your own game production club in school, right?"

"Well...yeah, there are more than a dozen people now." Su Mo nodded.

"It's better to have a student club," said the fat leader, "Everyone is enthusiastic and obedient... The most important thing is that you don't have to pay."

"Don't you generate electricity for love?" Jiang Yueling said in confusion, "You want to pay the other two?"

"We are a commercial studio, of course we have to pay, but... there is also a nature of generating electricity for love," said the fat leader. "I earn money from writing novels and pay them wages. They also take on outsourcing work themselves. Everyone is currently living together, so it is convenient to communicate."

"Wow, it sounds so miserable..." Jiang Yueling shook her head, "I thought I was always in high-end office buildings with a strong sense of technology."

"Of course, you can't play independent games without money, you can only live in old and dilapidated..."

The fat leader then shared with Su Mo some of the pits he had stepped on while playing games. Su Mo and Jiang Yueling recorded them well. An Ruosu only thought about taking more photos. Seeing that he couldn't finish it for a while, he ran out to visit the comic exhibition himself.

"So it's so hard to make games..."

"Thank you hard, it's not scary. What's scary is just worrying that your efforts won't be rewarded," the fat leader thought for a while, "or... give up halfway. I won't encounter this situation if I write a novel myself, because the novel is a progress that the author can control. Whether the novel can be completed normally depends on the author's conscience; but the game project is different. It is always something that can only be completed by multiple people. It is almost impossible to complete it alone."

"Well, we understand this too." Su Mo nodded.

"In addition, although student clubs are free labor, they are also very unstable factors... Over time, many people's enthusiasm may gradually disappear, or be attracted by something else, which is also a problem."

The fat leader reminded, "It is best to hold those core frameworks and planning and tables in your own hands. You said you are doing casual mobile games, and I think it's very good - college students are not suitable for making too complicated games, they are the same every year, and they don't have that much time, but it's a good idea to build a good foundation."

"Yeah, I'm really worthy of being a leader... The senior knows so much knowledge!" In fact, Su Mo usually tells Jiang Yueling about these principles, but Jiang Yueling is used to being with Su Mo, so he doesn't think Su Mo is so powerful. "Then what leisure mobile games are you optimistic about?"

"I think, there is a free mobile game on your mobile phone that is very popular recently. It is very simple to make, and it is a kind of micro-innovation. For example, this "2048" is a bit like Huarongdao. I am analyzing the flow experience of this game recently. Have you played it? Let me demonstrate it to you-"

The excited fat leader put on the leadership airs in front of Su Mo and Jiang Yueling, and did not notice the surprised expression on Jiang Yueling's face, "That, fat leader, that "2048" is-"

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"No, nothing."

Su Mo covered Jiang Yueling's mouth and found that the fat leader's mobile phone was an Android phone.

The Android version of "2048" Su Mo was also released in the school, but there was no platform cooperation, so it was not widely promoted.

And this "2048" seems to be much smoother in terms of the texture and feel than the version made by Su Mo.

"Is this... the official version of "2048"?" Su Mo frowned, "I remember that the official version of "2048" only has the IOS version, right?"

"It doesn't matter whether it is genuine or not. For ordinary programmers, this kind of game is basically a game that can be reproduced with a glance. Are you talking about the 2048 on APPSTORE? I've played it, but the feel is not as good as these."

"How can this be done!"

"2048" is also Jiang Yueling's debut work. At least the subsequent functional modules were designed by her, so it is normal for her to get angry. "These people are plagiarizing the creative gameplay of "2048"!"

"Plainting in gameplay is difficult to define." The fat leader shook his head, "As long as the evidence is not directly leaked from the source code, it will be difficult to sue plagiarism. Look at the time when Bubble Hall and Karting were very popular, didn't Penguin leave Penguin Hall and Penguin Speed? Look at how many people are playing racing now, and how many people are playing karting?"

"That's not that Penguin can guide through the platform, otherwise—"

"The platform is indeed a problem, but do you want to say that karts are really much higher than speed in terms of gameplay experience? Maybe it was true at the beginning, but the situation has changed now. In terms of later follow-up efforts, operation and maintenance, and gameplay innovation, what is better than karts? You can't just focus on plagiarism and gameplay. If you want to say plagiarism, don't karts--"

"Yes, yes." Jiang Yueling nodded, "If you want to plagiarize the gameplay, karts and speed are both copying our Nintendo plumber racing cars."

"The world's games are all big copy. Whoever makes them first will get the initial bonus, but whoever has better quality will win later." The fat leader said earnestly, "If you want the game you make to be remembered by others, you still have to cultivate the core competitiveness of your own products."

At first, Su Mo was a little dissatisfied with the fat leader's theory, but later he also figured out some truths.

"But the small team must not be able to compare with that of a large game company for the quality of polishing..."

"Yes, so what you can do is to polish your product as much as possible before making the game. The polishing floor is good enough before it is released. It will take time and effort to catch up with your fineness. You will propose cooperation with you, so that you can avoid the fate of being beaten to death by plagiarism and competition from large companies."

"Just... can you just bow your head like a shameless big company? I don't want to..."

Su Mo really thought so - to build the studio, make it bigger and stronger, and then sell it to Penguin and exchange it for shares to earn financial freedom and other things;

However, it seems that Yue Ling has no such plan.

"Of course, there are other ways," the fat leader explained, "that is to niche your products and subdivided categories, so small that big companies are simply disdainful of the profits you may generate - for example, like us, make a stand-alone or something."

"Finally - build your own product style and form your own 'culture' in the game," the fat leader smiled slightly, "If you do this, even if you copy, you will not be able to learn the essence of the game."
