Chapter 1178: One Look At This Platform And I Can Tell That It’s Not Reliable. Sorry To Disturb!

Old Liu took out his cell phone and handed it over. “This is our game. If you’re interested, you can try it out.”

He had left Shang Yang Games more than two years ago.

At that time, Shang Yang Games was in a perilous situation. Old Liu saw that something was amiss and slipped away at the speed of light.

Even though there were not many decent games companies in Jingzhou, there were very few professionals in the games industry.

As the chief planner, Old Liu’s resume was quite good. Thus, he quickly found his next job.

When he heard that Tengda had acquired Shang Yang Games, Old Liu indeed regretted it for a while.. However, he quickly recovered.

After all, he still remembered that Tengda’s young boss had a prejudice against him and did not like him.

Thus, even if he stayed in Shang Yang Games, he would probably be fired by the boss. The outcome would be the same.

Old Liu did not dwell on this matter anymore. Instead, he continued working hard on the new project in the new company.

In the past two years or so, Tengda Corporation has undergone a drastic change. It went from an unknown small company to the biggest games giant in Jingzhou and even the entire country. Every game that it produced exploded.

Even Old Liu’s previous underling, Huang Sibo, was doing very well in it.

Old Liu did not deliberately pay attention to this news. However, the official platform and some gaming media had interviewed Huang Sibo before. Thus, Old Liu could not help but hear some of it.

That made him very jealous. He had even thought about participating in Tengda’s recruitment examinations a few times.

However, Tengda’s recruitment examinations were too difficult. His professional knowledge should not be a problem, but he would not be able to pass the written examinations.

Then, he thought about how Tengda’s boss actually did not like him. Perhaps he would be immediately rejected after entering the interview. Perhaps he would be made fun of. He might even be stepped on by his underlings who had previously bullied him…

Old Liu gave up on this thought and went to other games companies in Jingzhou.

Fortunately, the gaming environment in Jingzhou has been getting better in recent years. More and more reliable gaming companies were appearing. Thus, Old Liu’s resume and salary were steadily increasing.

He was quite satisfied with the current situation. Thus, he stopped thinking about Tengda.

They were destined to meet again!

About eight months ago, Old Liu had jumped over to this company and created a new game. His results were not bad.

Old Liu used to work on web-based games. However, the boundaries between web-based games and mobile games were relatively blurry. Thus, he adapted very quickly after changing to mobile games.

The current game was a mobile game with paywalls, which was more heavily-regarded. It was called ‘Heroic Battle Song’.

That’s right. One look and they could tell that this was a copy of Bloody Battle Song.

Many people felt the same way when they first saw the game.

However, Old Liu felt wronged.

He was the one who designed the first version of Bloody Battle Song!

How could he be called a copycat if he were to imitate himself?

Of course, Bloody Battle Song was originally a trashy game. Shang Yang Games later made huge changes and reset it. Its art resources were completely changed. Even its game mechanism was greatly changed. That was how it regained its vitality.

However, to Old Liu, there were still many things about Bloody Battle Song that felt familiar.

Thus, even though he could not make too much money by creating a similar mobile game, as long as the quality was passable, he would definitely be able to make a living.

In fact, that was indeed the case. The monthly gross for “Heroic Battle Song” was about eight to nine million yuan. This was already quite good for a mobile game company.

Old Liu was also appreciated by his current boss. The task of discussing cooperation with the new channel was on him.

Old Liu was still very confident with this game.

No matter what, it was a profitable game!

It could not be compared to Tengda’s games. However, how difficult was it for a new gaming platform to find a game that could earn money? Wouldn’t they have to provide it well?

The cooperation today should be very smooth.

However, Tang Yishu stopped playing for less than five minutes after taking the cell phone. She repeatedly tapped the cell phone screen a few times before looking up in confusion.

“I think… it’s stuck.”

Old Liu was a little surprised.

“Eh? It’s stuck?”

Impossible.

This was obviously a stable version that was operating on other games platforms. It had already been tested several times.

There might be bugs in the official version of the game but this was a probability problem. Most players would not encounter it.

How could it be such a coincidence that a bug appeared on the display?

Old Liu took his cell phone back and realized that there was really a bug!

For some reason, the characters on the screen could not move. They were stuck in place, twitching crazily. They had not even finished running the novice guide.

“Ah, this…”

Old Liu scratched his head, speechless.

He could still muddle through with other aspects.

For example, if the gameplay was unreasonable, it could be said to be a game trait; if a certain art material was not good, it could be said that the aesthetics were more subjective. Some players liked this style. It could also be said that this was a temporary resource that would be changed in the future.

However, bugs were bugs. If they encountered them, it could only mean that the company’s hard skills were not good enough. The testing team was not reliable. It would greatly affect players’ gaming experience.

It was really not easy to get over it.

“Manager Tang, this should be a very coincidental bug. After all, as you can see, our game has already been released on other gaming platforms. At the moment, our reputation is quite good.”

“Some sporadic bugs cannot be completely avoided as long as they are within a certain range.”

Old Liu restarted the game. Fortunately, the progress of the newbie guide was saved. He did not have to play it from the beginning.

Otherwise, if it was stuck at the same place twice, it would split on the spot.

After making sure that there was a bug in the cell phone, Old Liu handed it back.

Tang Yishu took it.

“How about this? If I don’t encounter more than three bugs in half an hour, we’ll sign the agreement and arrange for the game to enter our platform’s first test list.”

“This is the agreement. Please take a look.”

Tang Yishu took out the agreement that she had prepared beforehand and handed it over.

This agreement clearly stated both parties’ share of the profits. It also stated other rules. For example, all games had a probation period. If they were taken off the shelves during the probation period, the manufacturer would still be able to get half of the income. On the other hand, Dawn Games would return half of its income to players.

Tang Yishu played with her cell phone while Old Liu looked at the agreement.

In fact, Tang Yishu knew herself very well. It was common for her to encounter bugs as a person with bugs. However, as long as there were not many of them, it would not affect players much after it was released.

Old Liu nodded without any objections.

Three bugs in half an hour?

It was unlikely.

This was a stable version. There were definitely more than three known bugs at the moment, but not every one of them would be 100% triggered. What’s more, how much game content could one experience in half an hour? In other words, they would only be able to transit the beginning part.

Thus, Old Liu did not think too much about it. He began to read the specific rules of the agreement seriously.

The more he read, the more ridiculous it seemed.

Who would do that!

The game could be taken off the shelves just because the players voted? Wasn’t that nonsense?!

The reputation of many games with paywalls was very bad. They were scolded badly by gamers, but that did not prevent them from making money.

Giving players so much power, wasn’t that cutting down their own money tree?

What’s more, the developer who had the greatest impact after taking it off the shelves was not the game. After all, he could still get 50% of the income. It was not a wasted effort. On the other hand, the gaming platform had refunded all 50% of its income to players. They had done so many resource promotions but ended up with nothing much left.

A gaming platform like that was bound to fail!

Previously, Old Liu had thought that this little girl was just a little younger. Since she had become the boss of the company and created a gaming platform, she should at least have some common sense.

However, it seemed like he had been overthinking.

This little girl had no common sense at all!

Could such a gaming platform really attract players?

Would working with such a platform be good?

Old Liu fell into deep suspicion.

“Ah, it hung.”

This time, Tang Yishu did not return the cell phone. Instead, she clicked on the game’s APP icon again and continued to experience it from the beginning.

Old Liu:”…”

Three minutes later, Tang Yishu paused again and handed the cell phone back.

Old Liu took it and realized that the game graphics had been used. There seemed to be a small problem with the art resources.

Old Liu was completely speechless.

What was happening?

Why did the game suddenly drop the ball?

In less than ten minutes, there were already three bugs!

These bugs were indeed bugs that existed in the game. Old Liu even knew that some of the bugs would appear by chance under extremely small probabilities. However, under normal circumstances, the low probability should not affect the game experience, right?

A situation where three bugs appeared in ten minutes was too rare.

Those who did not know better would think that the game was filled with bugs!

Tang Yishu comforted him. “Actually, it’s alright. It’s inevitable that bugs would appear. Why don’t you go back and fix the bugs before signing the agreement?”

“Don’t worry. As long as we encounter less than three bugs in half an hour, we will officially sign the agreement.”

Old Liu was speechless as well. He nodded. “Alright, I’ll come another day.”

He had thought that he would be able to put on a good show if he were to discuss a partnership with this new games platform.

Something was completely wrong!

Old Liu stood up and bid farewell.

Old Liu did not intend to come again after leaving the office of Dawn Games.

Fix the bug? Fix what f*ck!

This game has been tested many times. There were still some small bugs but it was not impossible to play it. Why spend so much effort to find and modify it?

What’s more, Old Liu had studied the agreement on this gaming platform carefully and found that it was not reliable at all!

Such a gaming platform would definitely not be able to develop. Even if they signed the agreement and went on this platform, there would probably not be many users. They would not be able to make much money. It was hard to say if they could even last a week.

There were many channels in the game. Was it necessary to spend so much effort to fix some minor bugs for a newly established channel?

It did not seem necessary.

He would tell the boss that this platform was not reliable and give it up directly.

Old Liu made up his mind and took the car to leave.
