Chapter 1 The world with a twisted technology tree

imperial capital.

Chen Mo woke up.

I feel like I'm going to die suddenly...

No, I must go to bed early tomorrow...

Chen Mo clutched his aching head and sat up from the bed.

Recently, I've had hallucinations from staying up late. I'm fine with daydreaming. Why do I still dream at night? Is it affecting my sleep quality?

Chen Mo was still complaining about the quality of sleep last night, but in the next second, he froze and didn't recover for a long time.

Nima, where is this, I crossed?!

Chen Mo looked around.

At this time, he was in an unfamiliar room that looked like a standard room in a hotel. However, this standard room is not very high-end at first glance, except that it is barely called clean and tidy, there is basically nothing to praise.

There is a large suitcase next to the table in the room. On the table is a relatively special laptop with a thickness comparable to a brick and a large screen. It looks heavy, but the workmanship is exquisite.

Chen Mo had never seen such a laptop in his previous life, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be quite expensive.

After washing his face in the bathroom and looking in the mirror, Chen Mo found that his appearance had not changed, but he had become a little younger, as if he had returned to four or five years ago, when he had just graduated from college.

Slowly, Chen Mo began to gain memories of parallel worlds.

This world is basically 90% similar to the world that Chen Mo is familiar with, but the game industry that Chen Mo is most familiar with is very different.

The root of all this is the difference in the level of technology.

In this world, I don't know why a series of technological explosions have occurred. Maybe it's aliens, or some traveler like Chen Mo is at fault. The speed of computer technology development is unbelievable and fast-changing, faster than riding a rocket. .

Before the popularity of personal computers, top researchers have developed supercomputers that can perform more than tens of millions of operations per second; the computer technology has been innovated in half, and VR technology has made a major breakthrough. The dream of the world has become a reality.

Chen Mo didn't finish half of his life in the seven or eighty years of his previous life, and this world just finished in just three or five years.

Technological explosion is of course good, but it has also directly caused a break in the game industry in this world.

Before the development of PC games, it has entered the era of VR, and those game developers have also studied VR games.

This has caused a consequence. Without the accumulation of experience in PC games, although these game companies have the technical level of VR games, their game design concepts are still in the Stone Age.

But the good thing is that the world takes the game industry very seriously.

The game was not regarded as a beast and an electronic opium like in the previous life, but was respected as the ninth art, and even the state supported it vigorously.

And game designers are no longer the IT migrant workers in the previous life, but have become a respected industry that requires strong professional skills, just like doctors, lawyers, and even literary and art workers.

As for Chen Mo himself, he was an ordinary student who had just graduated less than a year ago and was ready to join the game industry.

Strange to say, this world's method of joining the game industry is also very different from Chen Mo's previous life.

...

Chen Mo took a towel to dry the water stains on his face, then went to the window and opened the curtains.

In broad daylight, the sun is quite bright.

It was really hot in August in the imperial capital. Chen Mo was looking out of the window with the air conditioner on, but just by looking at it, he felt that the sun was going to burn pedestrians.

Chen Mo had a feeling that these pedestrians would turn into puddles of little candy people as they walked, and then slowly evaporated.

Chen Mo came to the table.

The laptop on the table, which is as thick as a brick, is a high-end PC in this world.

Start at 20,000 yuan.

Chen Mo is a poor student who just graduated, and he is not a rich second-generation. Why should he spend half a year frugally and buy such a high-end computer?

Because he's going to use this computer to design games.

Yes, this is another difference in this world. In this world, game designers design a game and don't need programmers to implement it.

So who will write the code?

The answer is: no need to write code. Because there is the most complete game editor in the world, designers can make their own games as long as they organize the game design drafts and use the game editor according to certain rules.

From casual small games with dozens of MBs to large VR games with dozens of TBs, super editors can complete them. Of course, the resources and time spent are definitely not the same.

Unlike the assembly line workers in the previous life, the game designers in this world are extremely personal, and their status is almost equal to that of artists.

These designers do not divide labor according to numerical values, plots, systems, levels, etc., and perform their own duties as in the previous life, but must be omnipotent. A designer who only understands the system and does not understand the plot will be despised by the insiders.

There are even some game designers who are first-class novelists and first-class painters, just like Michelangelo, an all-around genius, who is also a sculptor, a painter, an architect, and a poet.

Of course, for some super-large VR games, the chief designer will also find some assistants. However, he still has absolute authority and determines any detail of the game. These assistants are not like colleagues, but more like apprentices.

As mentioned earlier, Chen Mo is a young man who wants to join the game industry.

However, the way to join the game industry is not to apply for a game company, but through another way.

The game editor in this world is completely open, but the degree of openness and permissions vary according to the identity of the designer. If you want to enter the game industry, you must design a complete game through an editor and pass the review of a professional jury.

Chen Mo in his previous life has actually obtained the qualifications for entry-level game designers. As long as he designs a relatively basic casual game, he can automatically become a D-level game designer.

As for why Chen Mo stayed in the hotel? Because he signed up for a game design competition in the imperial capital, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com needed a quiet environment to complete his design these two days.

As a result, unfortunately, it may be because of too much stress or staying up too late, and suddenly died.

Chen Mo couldn't help but be speechless: At a young age, he died suddenly after two nights? My body is weak enough.

It's no wonder that Chen Mo is under a lot of pressure. Even in this world, the path of a game designer is not easy.

It has been almost a year since Chen Mo graduated, and he has never been able to find the right way. The games he made have not passed the assessment. Although all abilities have reached the entry level, he has never been able to become a D-level game designer.

If you drag it on, you will have no money at all. There are only three ways. Either drink the northwest wind, go home and eat the old man, or change careers.

Therefore, Chen Mo also worked hard and hoped to get a good place in this game design competition. As a result, the work has not been finished yet, and the people are gone.

After expressing three and a half seconds of condolences to the other Chen Mo, Chen Mo quickly calmed down.

Isn't that just designing games? This is my old job. As far as the game design concept of this era is concerned, if I don’t hang up the entire game industry and fight it, I will be baptized by domestic free games in vain.

Chen Mo opened the laptop.

But before that, he decided to order takeout first.

His stomach was already growling. In order not to be the first transmigrator who died suddenly and then starved to death, Chen Mo took the mobile phone on the table.

Sure enough, some apps in life are similar. Chen Mo noticed that the mobile phone in the parallel world is similar to the mobile phone in the previous life, but the configuration is higher.

After ordering a rice bowl and milk tea on a food delivery platform called What to Eat, Chen Mo calmed down and opened the game editor on his laptop.
