16. Game submission
The release of PV indicates that the game will be released soon.
The planned release date of Caoyang is on 520, which is also in line with the theme of galgame.
The game is made faster than Cao Yang imagined. It only took more than a month from making a plan to actually completing the first edition. Now, in less than two months, the game is about to be released.
It feels like a dream.
This kind of game development speed is hard to imagine in the industry, because generally single-player games with a little time and workload start at least half a year.
In fact, Cao Yang's game has a fast development cycle. On the one hand, it has the foundation of Honor of Kings left by Dad. Some 2D pictures of heroes and scenes are of very high quality and can be used directly.
On the other hand, the development of galgame is simple, removing complex combat mechanisms, mainly focusing on text options, reducing the amount of program development.
Finally, I found the master Zou Jielun, who was able to complete all the soundtracks in a short period of time. Looking around the world, I am afraid I can't find a second person.
...
After the debugging of the first version of the game was not a big problem, Cao Yang submitted the game CD of "Night of Glory of Kings" to review, and invited the leaders and staff from relevant departments to have a few meals.
The version number, that is, the digital seal. Games sold or operated in China must obtain the version number before they can be listed, otherwise it will be an illegal act.
This is the same as a movie being submitted for review. The relevant departments must review whether there is any anti-social and anti-political content in you, whether there is any content that instigates crimes or is suspected of crimes. If so, it must be ordered to rectify and not until the review is approved.
In 21 years, due to the large number of game companies, if there is no connection, the review process will be very long. It is very likely that your game has been trial operation (no charge) for several years before you can get the version number.
Peace Elite is a very simple example. Because its content instigates crimes, involves murder and bloody scenes, it was ordered to rectify. It was not until about two years after the game was launched, and it was sold for money.
After being voted for nearly two years by players, Tencent is almost vomiting blood.
Because only by obtaining the version number can you charge fees and the company can make profits.
After learning from his previous life, Cao Yang castrated himself in advance the content of the review, and confirmed that there would be no content involving political and anti-social crimes, which was given to the Bureau of Radio, Film and Television and Culture.
It is also very strange to say that in 2000, there was no clear division of power in China, and the game review department actually had two big heads.
Radio and Television says that games, like movies and TV, are electronic information products and need to be supervised and reviewed by radio and television.
The Cultural Bureau said that games, like novels and paper media, are cultural carriers and need to be supervised and reviewed by the Cultural Bureau.
Therefore, the game review department is affiliated to both radio and television and the Cultural Bureau, and both sides need to review, which makes the entire process extremely redundant and complex.
Fortunately, this time, because the above rating system has just been formulated, Bomi Games submitted a calculation for the first galgame in China, so it is taking a special channel. Currently, there is only Bomi in this special channel.
After all, although other companies are also developing in a intensive manner, they are far from so fast.
Just do it, just the plot, character design, original painting, development, soundtrack... a lot of things will take as long as a result of the process.
...
The game discs that Cao Yang sent for review are all carefully produced and collected versions, and are out of print, with only 100 sets sold. When submitted for review, they also sent several computers with the highest configuration and aliens to the Radio, Film and Television and Culture Bureau.
In 2000, even if the Aliens were the top-notch laptops, they were almost the same as the Rolls-Royce in the car.
It is said that in order to facilitate relevant staff to review the game, in fact, after being submitted for review, this batch of computers will definitely not be brought back.
If you say you give money directly, then the other party will definitely not accept it, and it is not legal. However, if you say that you need office work, you need to have a PC to play this game. Isn’t it reasonable for the game manufacturer to provide the equipment themselves?
Then have a few more meals.
The leaders were very satisfied with Cao Yang.
As long as Cao Yang doesn’t do anything stupid, it’s not a big problem to hide something that endangers national security and violates the law in the game.
Now there is only Bomi, and the review speed is quite fast.
During the day, in the radio and television building, two auditors from the game review department were beating the computer.
"Hey, don't say, this alien computer feels really good."
"What do you think is more than 10,000 yuan per unit."
It was a bit too much to be able to sell notebooks that cost more than 10,000 yuan in 2000.
"Bomi is considered intentional. In fact, they don't equip computers, so we have to review them carefully. Besides, this special channel is only this game, so I thought it would be easy."
"Yes, this means that Bomi's boss is good."
Both of them are a little older, about 40 years old, and are clicking and sliding on the keyboard with two index fingers (commonly known as one-finger Zen), and double-clicking to open the game according to the paper instructions sent by Cao Yang.
[The Night of Glory of Kings is over and dawn] A few big words appear on the screen, with gorgeous special effects and flashing away.
They quickly put on their glasses.
To be honest, both of them were a little excited.
After playing for a while, one of them said, "Hey, this game is good. You just need to use the mouse to play it all the time. Is it so easy to operate? I'm afraid it's too difficult and I can't even adapt to it."
"Come on, maybe Boss Bomi designed this way to take care of the stories of us middle-aged and elderly people."
After a while, one of the people raised his head in confusion, "Hey, didn't you agree to galgame? Why didn't there be an exposed shot inside?"
"Damn, who knows?"
"I always thought galgame was made of butter, but I didn't expect it to be so fresh and refined."
"Forget it, the leader has said it. What else can we say? There is no clear violation of the law and anti-social problem. Just report it quickly and we can get off work early."
"But seriously, I really want to know the development of the story later. Playing games feels more subtle than watching movies."
It was not until the next morning that the two men came out of the office with their tired bodies.
This time I worked overtime voluntarily, and I had never been so passionate about reviewing movies before.
"Damn, why is it this time?"
One lights a cigarette for the other.
The two stood in the corridor and sucked for a while.
"It's amazing, it seems that our gaming career has hope."
In 2000 this year, single-player games were mainstream, and online games had not yet entered the market. Foreign games were still the two giants in West and East Island leading the trend.
The sky is gloomy, but a ray of light can be seen.
Chapter completed!
