Chapter 376 Developing Games 6

The morning sun shines through the gaps in the curtains, onto Lin Zhi's slightly tired but still pretty face. Since she traveled to this Zerg world, life seems to have never stopped. However, today, she has a new plan, a plan that can not only adapt herself to this place, but also bring fun to everyone - develop a deluxe version of the game upgrade.

Lin Zhi rubbed her eyes, walked to the window, and took a deep breath of fresh air. Downstairs, Zhang Ying was busy tidying up the garden, while the insect brothers Wang Jun and Wang Kai were practicing their unique "insect skills" in the courtyard. These insect brothers have their own characteristics. Whether it is the rigorous Wang Jun or the humorous Wang Kai, Lin Zhi feels that the world is full of surprises.

"Sister Ying, come here quickly." Lin Zhi shouted loudly.

Zhang Ying stopped what he was doing and looked at Lin Zhi in confusion, "What's wrong, Miss?"

"I have a good idea that may make our lives more fulfilling." Lin Zhi's eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Oh? Tell me about it." Zhang Ying came over and sat next to Lin Zhi.

"I want to develop a game that combines the characteristics of our place and allows everyone to participate." Lin Zhi explained his idea in detail, "We can make use of the rich resources here and everyone's expertise."

After hearing this, Wang Jun and Wang Kai also came over and said, "This sounds interesting! What can we contribute?"

"First, we need a creative team, including the four of you brothers and the four siblings of the Li family. We will each play to our strengths and design a game that is both interesting and challenging." Lin Zhi looked at everyone and said, "As for the specific details, we can discuss them slowly."

Li?, the eldest son in the family, was the first to say, "This is a good idea! We can use our programming skills to make the game both practical and interesting."

Li Ming proposed an interesting idea: "We can add some adventure elements so that everyone can feel the charm of this world in the game."

Li Hua and Li Li also agreed, and they suggested adding some interactive links to make the game more lively and interesting. Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan were responsible for the game's art and sound design.

After several rounds of discussion and division of labor, everyone gradually formed a preliminary plan. Linzhi decided to design the game as an adventure game similar to World of Warcraft, but simpler and suitable for everyone to play together. There will be various tasks and challenges in the game, which can not only improve the skill level of players, but also enhance the friendship between each other.

In the following days, everyone threw themselves into the intense game development. Wang Jun and Wang Kai were responsible for the game's storyline and character design; Li Yu and Li Ming were responsible for programming and system design; Li Hua and Li Li were responsible for the game's art and animation; and Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan were responsible for sound effects and background music. Lin Zhi served as the general planner and coordinator.

After months of hard work, the game was finally completed. They decided to hold a trial session on the weekend and invite all interested Zerg members to experience it. On the day of the trial session, everyone rushed into the game hall and couldn't wait to start trying this new game.

"It's so fun!" Wang Jun exclaimed, "This game is both difficult and fun!"

“And the pictures are beautiful too,” Li Li added.

"I think the sound effects are also very good." Zhang Yuan also praised it.

Lin Zhi was very pleased to see such positive feedback from everyone. This game not only made everyone's life more fulfilling and interesting, but also deepened their friendship and tacit understanding.

Lin Zhi sat in a spacious office, surrounded by piles of documents and drawings, with a tense and excited atmosphere in the air. Her eyes were sometimes sharp like an eagle, sometimes gentle like water. In this complex emotion, she tried to find the best solution for game development.

"Ying, do you have any new ideas?" Lin Zhi turned to Zhang Ying, the team member responsible for creative design, whose mind always had surprising sparks.

Zhang Ying smiled slightly, pushed up his glasses, and took out a design draft: "I think we can design the main screen of the game into a huge Zerg planet, with all kinds of strange creatures and plants on the surface of the planet. Players can explore and fight on the planet and feel the charm of this strange world."

Lin Zhi nodded, but then frowned: "This is indeed very attractive, but we need more details to immerse players in it. For example, the Zerg brothers Wang Jun and Wang Kai can design some unique characters and plots."

Wang Jun and Wang Kai immediately showed confident smiles. They are not only excellent in combat skills, but also have a lot of experience in game plot design.

"We can design a series of quests with the four Zerg siblings Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua and Li Li as the main storyline," said Wang Jun. "Li?, as the warrior of the family, will lead the player to complete a series of challenges; Li Ming is good at wisdom and helps the player to move forward by solving puzzles; Li Hua is a healer who provides assistance to the player at critical moments; and Li Li is an excellent shooter. Her joining will add more variables to the battle."

"This is a good idea." Lin Zhi agreed, "but we need a complete game framework to support these characters and plots."

At this time, Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan came in. Hua Yuan was a programming expert, and Zhang Yuan was good at sound design. The two of them worked together seamlessly, always able to perfectly transform Lin Zhi's ideas into game code.

"We can divide the game into several major areas: exploration area, combat area, and puzzle area." Hua Yuan spoke first, "Each area has different characteristics and difficulties, allowing players to enjoy the game while also feeling the fun of challenge."

Zhang Yuan added: “In terms of sound effects, we can use various Zerg-specific sounds to create atmosphere. For example, a low humming sound indicates that danger is approaching, and a sharp hissing sound indicates that an attack has begun.”

After listening to this, Lin Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, everyone has a lot of valuable suggestions. Next, we need to integrate these ideas to form a complete game plan. Does anyone have anything to add?"

The office was silent, and everyone was immersed in thinking. Suddenly, Li Hua broke the silence: "We can design a special 'wormhole' system. Players can travel to different areas or scenes through wormholes. This will not only increase the fun of the game, but also allow players to constantly discover new surprises during the exploration process."

“This is a great idea!” Zhang Ying exclaimed excitedly, “We can use this system to create more surprises and suspense.”

Finally, after several hours of discussion and planning, the team finally completed a detailed game development plan. Lin Zhi looked at the plan in her hand, full of expectations and confidence. She knew that this would be a game that would attract countless players and was the result of their team's joint efforts.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Lin Zhi stood up and looked at every team member with a smile, "Let's work together to turn this dream into reality!"

Lin Zhi stood in front of the huge holographic projection screen, her eyes fixed on the data and images flashing on the screen, as if looking for some kind of pattern. Zhang Ying stood next to her, and both of them looked a little serious.

"Linzhi, do you really think this plan is feasible?" Zhang Ying asked with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

"Of course, our goal is to create an unprecedented game and change the entire industry." Lin Zhi said firmly, with unquestionable confidence in his eyes.

At this time, Wang Jun and Wang Kai came in. They were the Zerg brothers and important partners of Lin Zhi and Zhang Ying. They were equally serious, with enthusiasm for the project flashing in their eyes.

"How's the progress?" Wang Jun asked.

"We are discussing the development plan for the game." Lin Zhi briefly introduced the current situation. "The preliminary idea has been formed, but it needs to be further refined."

Wang Kai nodded, and then suggested: "How about we hold a small meeting first to discuss everyone's ideas together?"

"Good idea." Lin Zhi agreed.

Soon, the four Zerg brothers and sisters Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua, Li Li, Hua Yuan, Zhang Yuan and others arrived one after another. The entire conference room was packed with people, and everyone sat around a large table and began a heated discussion.

"I think we should focus on the plot design of the game." Li? spoke first, "Only a fascinating story can immerse players in it."

“That’s right, but we also have to consider the operability of the game.” Zhang Ying added, “Player experience is equally important.”

"We can add some unique Zerg elements," Wang Kai suggested, "such as allowing players to control the Zerg to fight, or explore the world from the perspective of the Zerg."

"This is a good idea," Lin Zhi agreed, "but we also need to consider how to balance the difficulty and fun of the game."

The discussion continued, and everyone's ideas kept colliding and merging. After several hours of intense discussion, they finally worked out a preliminary game development plan.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's divide the work and cooperate now." Lin Zhi stood up and stretched. "I will be responsible for the overall design and plot writing, Zhang Ying will be responsible for the optimization of the game engine, Wang Jun and Wang Kai will be responsible for art and sound effects, Li?, Li Ming, Li Hua, and Li Li will be responsible for game operation design, and Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan will be responsible for marketing and publicity."

Everyone nodded in agreement and started to get busy. The whole meeting room was filled with a tense and orderly atmosphere. Everyone was immersed in their work, and their hearts were filled with the desire for success.

After months of hard work, they finally completed the initial development of the game. When Lin Zhi pressed the play button, the whole room fell silent, with only the sound effects and the sound of screen switching coming from the screen. She watched the screen flow nervously, her heart full of anticipation and uneasiness. However, when she saw that the game ran smoothly and the screen was smooth, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction. She knew that they had successfully taken the first step.

Lin Zhi sat in the spacious office, clasping her hands tightly, her eyes revealing an unprecedented severity. Zhang Ying stood opposite her, also with a solemn expression. Both of them were top talents in the game development industry, but at this moment, they were facing an unprecedented challenge.

"Linzhi, can't we change the regulations of the Planning Bureau?" Zhang Ying asked softly, trying to find a glimmer of hope.

Lin Zhi shook her head. Her voice was low and firm. “The regulations of the Planning Bureau are to protect players from over-addiction and possible side effects. Our game must comply with these regulations.”

Zhang Ying sighed, knowing the severity of these rules. As a talented programmer, he was well aware of the possibilities in game development, but he also knew that once he crossed the line, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Then how do we explain it to users?" Zhang Ying asked again.

"We need a new promotional plan to make users understand our original intention." Lin Zhi said after thinking for a moment, "At the same time, we can also add some health tips and restriction functions to the game."

Zhang Ying nodded, knowing that this was the best solution at the moment. The two began to discuss the specific implementation details, and the office was filled with the sound of keyboard tapping and low-pitched discussions. Although the road ahead was difficult, they believed that through hard work, they would be able to find a suitable path.

 Zerg Brothers Wang Jun Wang Kai

At the same time, on the other side of the Zerg world, Wang Jun and Wang Kai were standing on a high tower, overlooking the entire city. As two important figures in the Zerg, they were well aware of the responsibilities they shouldered.

"Brother Jun, I heard that humans are also developing new games." Wang Kai suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

Wang Jun frowned slightly: "Oh? What difficulties did they encounter?"

“I heard that they can’t launch certain features because of the Planning Bureau’s regulations,” Wang Kai explained.

Wang Jun pondered for a moment and said, "Humans are always like this, pursuing benefits too much and ignoring the consequences. However, this may be an opportunity for us."

Wang Kai's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"That's right." Wang Jun nodded. "We can use this opportunity to launch healthier and more interesting games to attract more players."

Wang Kai immediately became excited: "Good idea! I'll arrange it right away."

The two smiled at each other and then went their separate ways. The Zerg brothers knew that only through innovation and hard work could they gain a foothold in the game.

Li Yan, Li Ming, Li Hua, Li Li, Hua Yuan and Zhang Yuan are another core team of the Zerg. They sat together and discussed how to break through the limitations of humans. Despite facing many difficulties, they never gave up hope.

"We must find a new way to attract players." Li Li said firmly.

"We can start with education." Li Hua proposed a bold idea, "combining games with education so that players can learn knowledge while having fun."

Li nodded: "It's a good idea. But we also need to think about how to balance entertainment and education."

"We can set up some levels and rewards," Zhang Yuan added, "so that we can keep the game interesting while allowing players to learn something."

Everyone nodded in agreement and began to discuss the specific implementation plan. Although the road ahead is unknown, they believe that as long as they unite as one, they will definitely find a way to break through the difficulties. In this challenging era, they not only have to face competition and restrictions from humans, but also have to deal with various problems within the Zerg. But no matter how difficult the road ahead is, they will move forward firmly into the future. Because they know that only through continuous efforts and struggles can they realize their dreams and goals.
