June 15th, Friday …
Slow Movement Workspace.
Qiao Liang sorted out the experience report and modification suggestions that he had written after the trial yesterday and sent them to Slow Movement Workspace's chief designer, Cai Jiadong.
At the moment, Animal Island could only be considered a semi-finished product. The characters, scenes, basic gameplay, and so on in the game were almost done. However, as a VR game, its greatest advantage had yet to be revealed.
That was because the characters, scenes, and basic gameplay could be developed according to the conventional game. It was a walk in the park.
The innovations in the design for the VR game mode, such as telekinesis, fishing, archery, and so on, needed to be coordinated with the controller that was being developed and slowly adjusted. The range of hand movements and the vibration of the controller still needed to be slowly perfected.
However, Qiao Liang already felt that it was very fun after just trying out the DEMO.
After trying out Animal Island VR, the thing that left the deepest impression on Qiao Liang was its unique art style.
This was an art style that was based on cartoon rendering. The saturation of various colors was very high. It used a brushwork and large color blocks to depict the blue-green sky, clouds with hand-drawn materials, and exaggerated atmospheric perspective. It made people feel as if they were in a gouache painting.
When Qiao Liang tried out Animal Island VR, he used a pair of VR glasses from a foreign brand that had just appeared. The resolution was 2K.
If it was the parameters of a conventional display, 2K was already considered very high-definition. Ordinary people would not be able to see any pixels with their naked eye. The clarity was extremely high.
However, in VR glasses, even if it reached 2K resolution, it was still difficult to eliminate the gridding effect. In other words, things would still feel like they were big fruits.
However, after entering Animal Island VR, this feeling of being a big fruit was alleviated by the game's unique style.
Qiao Liang had already learned that the new VR glasses that Slow Movement Workspace was designing and developing had a resolution of 4K. It was already the highest resolution that could be supported by current technology.
What kind of display effect would Animal Island VR achieve at this resolution?
Just thinking about it made him look forward to it!
Apart from that, the image design in Animal Island VR also left a deep impression on Qiao Liang.
There were anthropomorphic animals with different personalities and appearances, but they were all very cute. They walked in a crooked manner as if they had drunk fake alcohol. There were also many buildings that were full of design in the game, as well as strangely shaped steam technology machines … Together, they formed a unique and novel world.
After putting on the VR glasses, he really felt like he had traveled to another world.
Of course, Qiao Liang also discovered many problems during the experience.
After all, the game was still a semi-finished product. There were many bugs and some design loopholes.
Qiao Liang recorded all the problems he encountered during his tour and sent them to Cai Jiadong.
On the surface, it looked like he was doing testing work, but in reality, there was still a difference.
That was because, in general, game testers would only strictly follow the design drafts to verify the functions of the game, to verify that these functions were completely in line with the designer's design plan. Generally, they would not give any opinions on the gameplay design.
Qiao Liang, on the other hand, had his own opinions on some of the unreasonable designs in the game from the perspective of an experienced gamer. Obviously, his status was higher and he had more authority.
After sending another batch of revision suggestions?
Qiao Liang looked at the time.
It was already three in the afternoon.
Today was Friday. Chi Xing Workspace had inherited Tengda's fine tradition of not working overtime?
Therefore, after getting off work today?
It was almost Saturday and Sunday.
Qiao Liang's work for the day was over. He took some snacks and drinks in satisfaction.
Then, he secretly opened the fan group.
"Did the fans miss me while I was gone?"
Qiao Liang flipped through the chat records.
He realized that he was overthinking.
Not only did the fans not miss him?
They did not even realize that he had disappeared.
They were still talking about what they should be talking about. The chat records did not mention the words' Old Qiao 'or' Teacher Qiao 'at all!
Qiao Liang was a little hurt.
Indeed, these people were fake fans. They were just a group of heartless machines that urged him to update.
They only cared about the poor UP Master when they were urging him to update the video!
However, on further thought, Qiao Liang thought about it.
The reason for this situation might be because he often dived.
He would appear less than five times a year in the fan group. He would often disappear when something happened. Thus, it seemed very reasonable that the fans did not discuss him, the dog group leader.
"Alright, let's see what the idiot group members have been discussing recently."
Qiao Liang decided not to dwell on this problem.
He flipped through the chat records to the recent discussions of the group members.
"There must be something going on with Zhongdian Chinese Network! The authors of the inspiration class are all working like crazy. A few of them are still revising the plot?
This is definitely not what a salted fish should do! "
"This reminds me of Old Qiao. Every time he works like crazy, there will always be a new issue of Products of the Gods. Can anyone contact him?
Send Old Qiao to the inspiration class as well? "
"Please don't! This inspiration class was still a large salted fish petri dish a week or two ago. Old Qiao will probably be like a fish in water … "
"I think Old Qiao hasn't updated his video for too long?
Tengda hasn't had any large-scale new games recently?
You guys are idle. Aren't they just a few authors writing novels? Is it worth making such a fuss? "
"Of course it's worth it! Do you want to know?
Tengda is different from other companies. Every time it causes trouble, it will be earth-shattering. Every seemingly inconspicuous little anomaly might indicate that it will cause trouble … "
"Where's Old Qiao? He must know some inside information! "
Qiao Liang could not help but shake his head as he read the group members' discussions.
These people were really free. The few authors on Zhongdian Chinese Network could make them suspect that Tengda was going to make a big move.
Was there a need to be such a conspiracy theory?
However, on further thought, this thought was understandable. That was because Tengda was different from other companies. It was unique no matter what industry or field it was in.
Whatever he did, he could attract a lot of attention.
It was precisely because Tengda had caused too much trouble that it could create big news every time. That was why a group of netizens habitually paid attention to the traces of Tengda's various departments. They were like a group of high-intensity paparazzi. The celebrities' every move could trigger their gossip mentality and analyze it logically.
At that moment, Qiao Liang's sense of superiority came out as someone who knew some inside information about Tengda.
I've already tried out Animal Island VR! Most players did not even know that Tengda was working with Slow Movement Workspace to develop VR games.
This feeling made Qiao Liang secretly happy.
It was a pity that he had to keep it a secret and could not reveal the details of this project.
Qiao Liang continued lurking silently as he watched the group members seriously analyze the "Zhongdian Chinese Network's inspiration class author's salted fish syndrome subsiding".
"Do any big shots know Tengda's internal personnel and ask around?"
"Doesn't Old Qiao know Boss Pei? Let Old Qiao ask. "
"Damn it, the group leader has been gone for so long. Can you find him? He's probably addicted to games or gone out to play. "
"Don't count on this salted fish anymore. If he continues to be so salted, he will be abandoned by Tengda."
"That's right. I remember that Old Qiao was invited to try out Repent and be Saved as a special tester. I haven't looked for him recently. Obviously, it's because he's too salted fish and lost the right to try out the game internally. "
"Sigh, my son is not living up to expectations. As a father, my heart aches!"
Qiao Liang could not continue lurking calmly as he watched the discussions in the group become more and more ridiculous.
Look, look, are these even human words?
What do you mean I was abandoned by Tengda?
I, Teacher Qiao, am Boss Pei's good friend. How can I be abandoned?
My relationship with Boss Pei cannot tolerate such slander and slander!
You can run your mouths and say anything else, but you can't randomly guess my relationship with Boss Pei!
Qiao Liang immediately replied, "Don't spout nonsense! What do you mean I was abandoned by Tengda? I'm trying out Tengda's new game now! "
"It's a pity that there are confidentiality rules. I can't reveal it to you, hehe."
Qiao Liang sent a few smug emojis.
The group exploded.
"Holy sh * t? Which fishing master really hooked Old Qiao up! "
"I knew Old Qiao couldn't take this kind of provocation!"
"Tengda's new game? It's already at the stage where we can try it out? That's not right, right? It hasn't been long since Mission and Choice was officially released. Is it really that fast? "
"What game? Old Qiao, hurry up and tell me. Otherwise, I'll curse your d * ck to be five centimeters shorter! "
Qiao Liang immediately replied, "Hehe, I still have 20 centimeters left!"
"I'm fishing for fish. I don't need to say anything else, right?"
"Forget it, forget it. I'll continue playing the new game. You bunch of people who can't play the game can be envious!"
"Goodbye!"
After sending the 'goodbye' message, Qiao Liang quickly changed his state to 'invisible' and closed the chat.
He looked at the time. It was about time to slip away.
Qiao Liang was not an official employee. He did not need to follow the eight-hour working hours. It did not matter if he was late or left early.
He got up and packed his things, preparing to go back and enjoy this weekend.
…
Qiao Liang might have run away, but his fans were still discussing intensely.
He had several groups. The one that he often appeared in was the core fan group. As a super group, it could accommodate five thousand people.
Not all of them were fans who watched his videos. Many of them were Tengda's fans.
That was because Qiao Liang often obtained first-hand internal information about Tengda. Several games only became popular after he explained them. Thus, many Tengda fans joined in, wanting to pay attention to the latest developments of Tengda from the group.
These people were usually in a lurking state. However, once they caught any clues, they would immediately reveal their dorsal fins like sharks that smelled blood!
