The content of the phone call was to invite him to the game department to participate in the award ceremony.
At the same time, in the official game store, the winning notice of "To the Moon" was also hung on the homepage.
On the homepage of the official game store, there is also an appraisal review for selecting "To the Moon" as the first prize.
'Imagine sitting in bed on your deathbed and you recall all the joys in your life, all the regrets, especially the regrets. ’
‘You always tell yourself that if you could go back in time you would do this thing and make this dream come true, but there always seems to be something that takes you off track: family obligations, work, spending time with friends. ’
'And now that you're dying, there's no time left, what if you could change your memory on your deathbed to make that dream come true in your dying mind? ’
'This is just the tip of the iceberg of "To the Moon". It's not a big production. It doesn't have exquisite graphics, and it doesn't have complicated gameplay, but what I want to say is like the last game of producer Chen Xu' Like Under the Legend', To the Moon has a lesson for all designers making video game narratives, and he's raised the bar for games in this genre so high. ’
'If you want to review the whole game, it's hard to discuss without spoilers, but let's just say if you're a gamer who cares about storytelling, this game is a must play. ’
'Such views may be affected by time, but at least for now this is absolutely the perfect game. ’
'The dialogue is perfect and there are plenty of witty jokes in the collaboration between Dr Eva and Dr Neal, providing humor to break up an often dark story. ’
'The story is perfect, the story of Johnny and his wife Riva has many twists and turns, some bittersweet, some downright sad, but it's not just a mix of humor and sadness. ’
'The music is perfect, full of beautiful piano melodies, and each track shines on its own, recurring in different thematic stories and moments of choice, just like you'd expect from the best movies. ’
‘Going to the moon is about a life: the people, the places, the hardships and the joys that make us human. ’
'The whole story started out as a mixed hodgepodge, but it crystallized satisfactorily over the years. ’
'It's absolutely a perfect game, no doubt about it. ’
This appreciation article from the game department can be said to have given "To the Moon" a very high evaluation, and completely affirmed the game status of "To the Moon".
………………
Inside the office of Nebula Games.
Yang Xin and Ruan Ningxue also saw the announcement from the game department for the first time, and both of them cheered.
"Chen Xu, look! "Go to the Moon" has been recommended on the official game platform!" Yang Xin was excited.
This is the official game platform!
And this game even won the first title of this event.
This is something that Yang Xin never dared to think about before.
She was so excited that she wanted to make a big career in the game industry and she couldn't control herself at all.
His entire face was flushed with excitement.
Ruan Ningxue, who was next to him, did the same, with a look of excitement on his face.
As for the new employees who joined Nebula Games during the period when "To the Moon" was launched, they were also very excited.
Although this game has nothing to do with them half a dime.
But such a result fully proves that Nebula Games has a promising future, and they are about to work in this promising company, so they are naturally very happy.
"By the way, are you going to attend the award ceremony of "To the Moon" next?" Yang Xin thought of something and said to Chen Xu.
"Well, the leader of the game department just now informed me." Chen Xu nodded.
"Awards ceremony! Will it be on TV?" Ruan Ningxue asked curiously.
"I think too much, it's not a commercial awards ceremony, it's basically the kind of showing your face and then getting a certificate." Chen Xu shook his head and said.
"That's it!" Ruan Ningxue was stunned.
"Okay, let's not talk about this part, let's talk about the company's business, let's get to the bottom of it with everyone. After the National Day holiday, we will also start the development of new projects, and this time, we will It's a big move."
"In addition, before the end of October, the platform also needs to be built well, and the time-consuming and labor-intensive non-core areas should be outsourced directly."
Chen Xu looked at the crowd and said.
"Magic Mirror", "Under the Legend" and "To the Moon", the three games are very small in terms of cost and volume.
But in terms of sales, it was definitely a success.
The funds provided by the three games, for the current Chen Xu, are still stretched for the development of large-scale 3A games.
But some more sophisticated and larger games are completely accessible.
Listening to Chen Xu's words, everyone's expressions became serious, and at the same time, they were still looking forward to it.
After all, who is in the game industry, who doesn't have the heart to participate in big projects?
Whether in terms of personal goals or career history.
After chatting with everyone in the team, Chen Xu also returned to his office, leaning on his chair and looking at the UI interface that only he could see.
I have to say that "To the Moon" really gave him a wave of points.
He had collected three ten consecutive points for him, plus those provided by "Under the Legend" and "Magic Mirror".
At present, his points have also increased to 4.5 million.
It can be drawn forty-five times.
But looking at these points, Chen Xu didn't act immediately.
He is still ready to stock up.
The next new project, although Chen Xu has not yet determined, after all, even if it is to be developed, it will have to wait until after the National Day.
During this time, Chen Xu estimated that according to the current growth rate, he would be able to gain more than ten consecutive points by then.
After all, "Going to the Moon", which just won the first prize, is recommended on the official platform, and it will definitely attract a large number of players.
And these players are hot points.
Ten consecutive waves, from the perspective of metaphysics, the probability of opening something good is also a little higher.
Don't be the same as before, except for two memory capsules in a wave of twenty-one, there is not even a rare skill book.
