The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent - The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent chapter 128

81. Taeyeon’s Choice (2)

I called Park Myung-hoon and Choi Jong-hak and handed over the ＜Snack Empire＞ test build.

“Let’s play the game for a week from now and decide what to do with it.”

For those who often claim to be hard gamers, it is not easy to spend a day figuring out the game.

The three people present here belonged to him as well, but since he had the name card of the evaluation committee, he needed to show his utmost sincerity.

The three of them played the game in their own way for a week and talked a lot.

“There are so many characters, it won’t be easy to balance it.”

“Well, this game is all obvious. In the format of picking the highest grade and raising them all… … .”

“What about the balance?”

“It will be different every time we update and release a new character.”

what is a day

I’ve only played for a few hours, but I can already picture the final update in my head.

How to build and play a deck in this game.

“There are so many games like this… … .”

“Still, having the story and foundation set up properly is a big advantage. Above all, a snack empire is something ingenious.”

“It’s a pity that I couldn’t use that novelty in a sensible way. The art has to be drastically changed. More cute and cute. The voice actors are also changed to people who can give off the common feeling well… … .”

“Uh, the scale of this work is too big… … If this is the case, wouldn’t it be better to create a new one with a different subject and item?”

“No, there are already many games like this? In fact, even now, the whole time I’m doing this, I’m dying to do the Gingerbread Cookie Battle that I didn’t do before.”

“Oh, that’s fun.”

Choi Jong-hak and Park Myung-hoon constantly exchanged opinions about the game.

at the coffee shop.

His mouth is on the straw, his eyes are on his phone.

food.

Taeyeon thought to herself.

‘That’s what a perfect office worker gamer looks like.’

Taeyeon also thought while looking at the game screen on her phone.

‘It’s all right. There are too many regrets for us to bring.’

Still, the idea is good and I feel full of love for this game.

‘Then I’d rather… … ?’

Park Kyung-yeon and the Rising Storm development team visited the Pangyo Nepple office building.

“and… … .”

“Really big and huge.”

“It would be nice if we could make games in a place like this.”

While listening to the conversation between the disciples, Park Gyeong-yeon thought to herself.

‘Neckple, definitely a lot has changed compared to the last time I visited.’

So many things have changed.

There was a huge pop-up store and cafe on the first floor, and there were a lot of customers. Even though it was a weekday afternoon.

‘Most of them are foreign tourists.’

And they seem to be users of Elcross Re and Disney Fantastic World.

‘Elcross Re reached a maximum of 1 million simultaneous connections not too long ago, didn’t it?’

Disney’s Fantastic World has sold over 10 million copies. In addition, other games are also receiving good reviews and sales are soaring.

In addition to this, Nexple’s business rankings were also rapidly rising. This is very unusual not only in the game industry, but also in the business world.

Domestic and foreign investors are said to be flocking.

Middle Eastern oil conglomerates are said to be coming with money… … .

“uh? Team Park!”

As I waited in front of the elevator, I heard a familiar voice.

“Isn’t that Mr. Jonghak?”

It was the final study.

It seemed like he was on his way out after drinking coffee with his teammates in the cafeteria.

“Uh, Choi, it’s PD Choi Jong-hak!”

“Wow, I really admire you… … .”

“Isn’t that the person who set a new sales record in Korea?”

My shoulders are strained by the disciples’ whispers.

The fact that such an amazing person is close to you, recognizes you first and welcomes you.

Choi Jong-hak asks while shaking hands and hugging.

“I heard a lot of stories. I heard you ate chicken with Park Tim hyung? Except for me!”

“We can eat together next time.”

“Who knows what next, I’ll say that and dive again? Let’s see it after today.”

He looks around at his disciples and says.

“I’ll shoot chicken and beer!”

“wow!”

At the applause of the disciples, Park Gyeong-yeon sighed knowing that she could not refuse.

“Anyway, contrary to appearances, there are no raccoons.”

“People don’t change easily. hehehe.”

While talking like that, I moved to Taeyeon’s office.

“I’m here? Students are also welcome. Welcome to Nexle.”

“hello!”

“hello!”

A future investor, or maybe even a top boss!

The students bowed their backs and greeted them bravely, expressing their wish to take care of themselves.

Park Myung-hoon pretended to be close to Park Gyeong-yeon.

“It’s been a really long time.”

“Is that so?”

“yes. It’s been a really long time. I thought I died somewhere, but I’m a professor at Hankuk University… … people really… … .”

“hahahaha… … .”

I feel regret. Park Gyeong-yeon, who had been laughing awkwardly, meant that she thought deeply about herself, and soon apologized with a sigh.

“sorry. It happened.”

“what… … Let’s listen over dinner tonight. What the hell happened to cut off contact with us, who we used to be so close to?”

“As usual, I decided to shoot chicken and beer today, so let’s go see it then.”

“okay? That will do.”

Park Kyung-yeon felt that he was sweating profusely, but the students were just amazed.

Isn’t that the famous Nepple 3 captain?

They didn’t know that their teacher would have such a close relationship with the top 3 in the industry that is making a lot of noise right now.

Taeyeon smiled and said.

“We have a long way to go, so let’s get straight to the point. I’ll let you know what I felt after playing Snack Empire for a week and focusing on analyzing it.”

“… … !”

The friendly atmosphere is there.

The moment Taeyeon opened her mouth, tension began to rise.

“Now, first… … .”

The three judges, including Taeyeon, poured out merciless criticism. Of course, there were advantages mixed in, but there were more harsh criticism than that.

The students, who were taking notes diligently, felt that a mental breakdown was coming. Park Kyung-yeon was also embarrassed.

‘I guessed that there would be quite a bit of bitterness, but… … .’

I didn’t expect it to hit me this hard.

‘Originally, they were ruthless humans, but… … It’s gotten worse.’

Should we see it as the fate of those who carry the big axis of large corporations?

It was savage, but on the other hand, I felt thrilled by the sharp insight and meticulous analysis.

‘This is the only way to listen to the voice of a star developer.’

The students were crying.

Because the game I made with all my heart and love was being completely destroyed.

It was then.

smart.

“… … What happened?”

“We have a development meeting. All three of you must attend.”

“What game development meeting is it?”

“This is the Venus Project.”

Exclamation bursts out everywhere.

The students who had been crying a while ago were upset.

“I-I know that game! Isn’t that the game that top-notch Korean original artist Oh Young-wook joined!”

“There are many developers from Nero Soft and Netfunz… … .”

“It’s a mobile phone that costs more than 10 billion won… … !”

Taeyeon saw that and made a decision.

“I’ll be right there.”

and told the students.

“Wouldn’t you like to see an actual development conference?”

From nob le mt l dot com

Many people, including Taeyeon, rushed into the meeting room.

‘What, what?’

‘What’s going on?’

The team leaders of the Venus Project studio were perplexed.

“Sit in an empty seat.”

“yes!”

After instructing the students to do so, Taeyeon also sits down.

And I told producer and art director Oh Young-wook.

“I am a student at Korea University Game Education Center. It’s a field trip, so don’t worry about it and proceed with the meeting as usual.”

“Ah, yes… … .”

The unfamiliar situation and the pouring eyes were a bit burdensome, but… … .

‘Let’s keep calm. That way it won’t break even a little bit!’

Taeyeon was more scared than that.

All those who suffered from that cold-hearted charisma and merciless vitriol felt the same way.

Taeyeon, who took control of the conference room before she knew it, spoke in a voice so cold that it was reminiscent of the north wind and cold snow.

“If you are ready, let’s begin.”

‘and… … .’

‘oh my god… … .’

Watching the team leaders’ presentations, the students couldn’t help but be mesmerized.

‘Is that kind of graphics possible on mobile?’

‘It looks really fun. Characters, systems… … It’s really great!’

‘If that comes out, I will definitely sweep the two major markets.’

In the eyes of the students, there was no other game in the celestial realm.

Not to mention the visuals that made use of the star-level original artist Oh Young-wook’s art properly, and the ability to novelly configure an obvious collectible mobile into a shooting RPG was truly admirable.

I was looking at it and I wanted to try it, to the point of going crazy.

‘I want to make a game like that too.’

‘It’s really cool.’

However, that is the student’s decision.

“The level design is a mess. Especially BM, I must have ordered a drastic revision last time, but nothing has changed much, right? Does it make sense that you can’t even see the main story without paying?”

“Oh, no… … You can see it, but if you pay, you can do it more comfortably… … .”

“What year is it?”

“… … .”

“Do you think users will wait until then?”

“… … .”

“What hurdles do you catch that way? Of course, it is necessary to adjust the difficulty, but the presence or absence of payment should not affect the progress of the main story!”

“I’m sorry.”

“And do you remember when I said to pay attention to optimization and lower the drive specs? Did it work properly?”

“Work in progress.”

“Still?”

“… … .”

“I played a test build until just yesterday. In particular, the issue of BGM stuttering due to frame drops and freezing in the loading window has not been resolved yet. Is that such a difficult task? Shall I tear it apart and try to solve it myself? How long will it take?”

“Oh, no. We will resolve it as soon as possible.”

“and… … .”

students felt

‘Ah, we must have really watched.’

‘That’s the famous annihilation mode!’

‘It’s really not a joke.’

The fact that that is the real Yoo Tae-yeon in real life.

It’s clear that everyone in this room is a top-notch development team with an incredible track record.

Such people were unable to raise their heads in front of Taeyeon’s vicious remarks, not knowing what to do.

Taeyeon couldn’t even breathe.

It means that he was not excited at all and kept his pace.

“The biggest problem is on the server side… … .”

Taeyeon looked at Choi Jong-hak.

“You help me.”

“me? I’m busy with Pantheon… … .”

“It will take some time, but it is not too difficult for you. go ahead and do some By hiring a few people.”

“… … .”

“This is more urgent than the Pantheon.”

“Okay… … .”

The expression of the server programmer in charge darkened.

But he said nothing.

It was because Choi Jong-hak was a ‘genius developer’ acknowledged by others.

“The correction notice keeps popping up, and there is an error in adding friend window and status window data… … There’s a fundamental problem. You help me.”

“Oh really… … .”

Choi Jong-hak said with a deep sigh.

“okay. I’ll check.”

Taeyeon nodded and looked around.

The atmosphere was out of the question.

This is where Taeyeon starts tuning.

“I made it well enough even now. But with a little more effort, it could be a much better game. You should be well paid for it. Isn’t that why you’re struggling to die right now?”

People nodding their heads.

“I will definitely promise you. As much as you all worked hard, you will be able to receive the price as much as the performance. So let’s suffer a little more. Do you understand?”

“yes!”

roaring answer.

“I look forward to seeing more improvements next time.”

After the meeting, only Park Kyung-yeon and the Rising Storm development team were left.

Choi Jong-hak and Park Myung-hun also left their seats for their own work.

“Whoa… … huh?”

Looking at the students sitting in angular positions, Taeyeon made a puzzled expression. Park Kyung-yeon said with a bitter smile.

“Everyone froze when they saw Team Yoo during the meeting.”

“ah… … .”

Taeyeon smiled a little.

“You don’t have to worry. Unless it’s our company’s development team, there’s no reason to be so mean.”

“… … .”

They were students who felt sad rather than relieved.

“Should we finish the story about Snack Empire? My choice is… … .”
