After finishing his meal, Chen Mo sipped his milk tea as he rummaged through his laptop. His chest was heaving up and down as he breathed heavily.
He couldn't help it, he was angry.
Chen Mo almost choked on the pearls in his milk tea when he was angry.
Why was he angry?
Chen Mo was getting more and more excited as he looked at the games in this world.
VR games dominated.
PC games weren't that great, it could even be said to be terrible. The main function of a PC was to work.
Mobile games were mainly for casual entertainment. There weren't any heavy titles, and most of them were made by C-grade and D-grade video game designers. There weren't many that were profitable.
There weren't any web-based or console games.
Obviously, the game developers were all focused on developing VR games. Who would care about the PC version, let alone the mainframe.
Chen Mo was quite happy at first, feeling that it was time for him to shine.
But he was furious when he saw his account, and almost choked on the pearls in his milk tea.
The game editor that Chen Mo was using was called the Fantasy Game Editor, which was developed in China. The game editor developed overseas was called the Reality Game Editor. It wasn't too far off, with reality having a slight advantage when it came to VR games.
However, the video game designers in China shared their resources and uploaded their games through the Fantasy Game Editor. The designer's information was also stored there, which was why Chen Mo was using this one.
Various stats were displayed in front of Chen Mo when he opened the editor.
Chen Mo: Video Game Designer (Beginner)
Creativity: 7
Systems: 8
Numbers: 3
Story Writing: 10
[Original Art: 7]
[3D Art: 1]
[Monthly Resource Quota
The data in his account was the system's overall evaluation of him based on the games Chen Mo had made.
Story writing seemed to be the best, probably because Chen Mo majored in literature in university.
As for the pathetic 3D art, that was because Chen Mo hadn't made any games that had anything to do with 3D.
Oh, right, the full score for all the stats was one hundred.
What made Chen Mo furious wasn't the pathetic stats, but the 'Monthly Resource Quota' at the bottom.
What did that mean? It meant that every designer could use some public resources on the internet to design games for free. Depending on the designer's level, the amount of resources they could receive each month would vary.
For an uninitiated video game designer like Chen Mo, 300 MB was quite a lot, but the problem was that he had already used 294 MB, only 6 MB was left!
It was only the middle of the month, and it was unrealistic to wait until the next month. The final draft of the game design competition would be submitted in two days!
The heavens really want me to die!
Chen Mo took a big gulp of milk tea and opened the saved game in the game editor.
"I can only see if this game project can be saved …"
One minute and forty-three seconds later.
Chen Mo silently pressed the cross on the top right corner of the project.
Sigh, how unsightly.
This project was a 2D wuxia style game. It had the most basic fighting and some simple moves, as well as dozens of simple dialogue lines.
As for why so many resources were used … It was probably because they had made ten scenarios and seven or eight bosses …
From Chen Mo's point of view, the game had no chance of success.
The gameplay, the combat, the graphics, the story, there was nothing worth saving.
But, redo?
What kind of game could be made with 6MB of resources? Minesweeper?
It could be made, but even with 6MB of resources, it wouldn't be able to win a prize in a video game design competition!
What a pain in the ass! What a pain in the ass!
Chen Mo felt like he had swallowed a huge chunk of ice. Not only was it uncomfortable, but his heart also felt cold.
She reached out and closed the laptop screen.
Despair!
But at this moment, Chen Mo noticed that the bracelet on his left wrist didn't seem right.
The bracelet was bought by the original owner, and its function was similar to the bracelets from his previous life. It was only used to monitor heartbeat and sleep quality. Chen Mo didn't notice it before, but now he realized that the bracelet didn't seem right.
Chen Mo tried to touch the bracelet, and a virtual screen popped up.
"My goodness, what is this?"
Chen Mo was shocked. He thought it was some kind of advanced technology from this world, but after searching through the memories of this world, he realized that the bracelet shouldn't have such a function.
Chen Mo looked at the virtual screen. It was very simple, with only two messages, a string of numbers and a virtual wheel.
A string of numbers: 597340.
Almost six hundred thousand game points.
The virtual wheel was divided into three areas. The green area had the words "Designer Skill Books", the blue area had the words "Rare Skill Books", and the purple area had the words "Special Items".
The green area was the largest, and the purple area was the smallest.
There was a large button in the middle of the wheel: "Lucky Draw".
There was a small line below "Lucky Draw", "100000/time."
Chen Mo fell into deep thought as he looked at the string of numbers.
After a simple deduction, Chen Mo understood that as a transmigrator, this was probably his cheat.
It looked like a cheat to get items from the lucky draw.
But … what does this 597340 mean? Why are there numbers like zero?
Chen Mo racked his brain, trying to remember all the numbers he had since he was young. Finally, he slapped his forehead and figured it out.
This number, divided by ten, was the money he had spent playing games in his previous life, which was around sixty thousand RMB.
There were credits from RPG games, 3A games, as well as items from Chinese games. Now that he thought about it, Chen Mo did spend quite a bit of 6480 on many games.
"… Damn, I should have spent more if I had known!"
Chen Mo regretted it. If he had known he could use the money he spent on games in his previous life, he would have spent the hundred thousand RMB he had saved up.
However, Chen Mo felt his heart ache when he saw the number 100000/time.
That's expensive. If converted to cash, it would be 10000 RMB per time!
But considering that he could only use it for the lucky draw and not cash out, Chen Mo decided to try it out first.
"According to the normal plot, should I draw a special item and get extra resources to develop a new game?"
Chen Mo mumbled to himself as he clicked on the "Lucky Draw" button.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
The wheel spun quickly.
"Special item! Special item! Special item! "Chen Mo yelled in his mind.
Although Chen Mo didn't know which reward was better, it was obvious that the special item was purple, and took up the smallest area, so it was definitely the rarest reward.
With a click, the wheel stopped, and the needle stopped at the green area, "Designer Skill Book".
"Alright, how could I get a purple item on my first try? This is obviously a trap. Calm down, calm down …"
Chen Mo noticed that there was an extra book on the virtual screen, and a notification, "Designer Skill Book: Numerics + 1"
