“The Stupid Bird Flying First+” with a completely different style, does not mean using more beautiful and more refined art and special effects to express the effect of the original version? This is similar to what we just discussed.”
One of the interviewers asked, “For example, we used pixel style before, but later we will change the more refined comic style, or celluloid style…”
“Then, what do you think is the core selling point of “Supid Bird Flying First”?”
“Well… I think that should be a simple horizontal jumping gameplay?”
“This is indeed its selling point, but it is not core enough.”
Mei Fang explained, “Summary of the successful nature of “The Stupid Bird Flying First”, it is actually a social game. In terms of gameplay, we should not limit ourselves to the simple expression of horizontal jumping. In fact, it is essentially a parkour and a rhythm game. It is not much different from the “Temple Escape” and “Subway Parkour” that we often play recently.”
“At the same time, the gameplay + the reason why I feel is not suitable for the Stupid Bird Flying First is because it will abandon the original simple problem of getting started.”
Mei Fang said and took out a small blackboard to demonstrate to everyone, “This is the well-known perspective of temple escape. Our Stupid Bird Flying First is pixels and 2d. In terms of performance, the second generation can refer to the Temple Escape to do 3d and back perspective.”
“This perspective… looks completely different.”
Under Mei Fang’s explanation, everyone was gradually attracted by Mei Fang’s ideas. “But do we still have to jump in gameplay? It feels like the jumping feeling is not that comfortable in this perspective.” “You are right, there is no need for us to continue to jump with it, because after all, “The Stupid Bird Flying First” is not a game that is so fun to jump in horizontal versions, but it is easy to get started.” “Since it is easy to get started, then according to this idea, we can design a brand new Stupid Bird Flying First game with the help of the gyroscope of the smartphone, or the left and right sliding operation similar to the Temple Escape.” “But this is very different from the original version. Will players really buy it?”
“We can leave the things we are willing to buy or not to evaluate, but the answer to this question is definitely not to make the gameplay complex and add more refined in the existing gameplay of the stupid bird flying first. What do you think?”
The students in the same group of Mei Fang looked at each other for a while, and after everyone nodded, they unified their opinions and opinions. The classmate in charge of the timing said: “There is not much time left now, so I will recommend a reporter to summarize the gameplay to the interviewers.”
“Then, then Zhang Ming should come…”
“Student Zhang Ming’s analysis is very thorough, I believe he is right.”
br> But when everyone’s anticipated eyes fell on Mei Fang, Mei Fang waved her hand and smiled: “I see that everyone took a lot of notes when summarizing their opinions. I want to leave this opportunity to others here. I wonder if anyone is willing to take the initiative to assume this responsibility?”
The scene was a little stalemate, and then a girl with a very quiet appearance raised her hand timidly, “I…I want to try it.”
She couldn’t interfere in her speech just now, but she listened very seriously, and the logic she expressed when she spoke alone was clear. This feeling made Mei Fang involuntarily think of herself in her previous life. Before there were other people talking, Mei Fang took the initiative to answer:
“I think you can let Wang Meng try it. I feel that she can integrate everyone’s views very well.”
“I agree.”
“No objection.”
Mei Fang’s statement, who easily became the leader of the opinion, naturally received follow-up from many people. Wang Meng also looked at Mei Fang with gratitude, then stood up from her position and raised her hands to the examiners who were trying to make their posture right.
“Senior, we are ready to make a report.”
“Yeah… OK.”
Orange calmed down his frustration just now, tried to squeeze out a decent smile, and then raised his hand and said, “Please start the statement of our group.”
Faced with this kind of report that is beyond common sense, the newcomers interviewed were uneasy, but what they never expected was that the three examiners in front of them were actually far more nervous than the newcomers interviewed; after all, the newcomers could go to other companies for internship interviews. If they performed poorly, they would be fired by the big boss on the spot.
First of all, the big boss’s face must not be reduced. He said that the gameplay would be as good as he did;
But he should not be too licked, otherwise he would be cheating and the big boss might be unhappy;
After listening carefully to everyone’s statements, the experienced Bai Ge carefully commented on the performance of each student and commented on the shortcomings and excellences; and when he commented on the big boss Mei Fang, Bai Ge paused a little.
“First, first of all, as the person who finally turned the tide and changed the team’s viewpoint, Zhang Ming made great contributions to the team’s cohesion. As the last speaker, you can put forward a completely different viewpoint from everyone before. This is a very courageous thing.”
“There is no doubt that your final turn of the tide was very exciting, but I also hope that you can reflect on the risks in this. If the views you put forward as a planner at the same level are not recognized by the previous people and the team has huge conflicts, will it affect the final speech of unified opinions? I think it is excellent in terms of the results, but the process is still very windy.Dangerous. “
“Actually… I have a similar view. “Xiya, the owner of the coconut juice studio, followed the scene and said, “Your idea about the sequel is very original, but in addition to sufficient arguments to convince this fantastic idea in a short period of time, it also requires a certain degree of courage… Of course, you are not just doing it. ”
“Okay, I get it. “
Mei Fang nodded and smiled at Xiya, the leader of the coconut milk project team, and said, “In addition, I would like to ask my seniors, about this question, which is the sequel to “The Stupid Bird Flying First”, is your company planning and considering it now? “
“This… we are considering the project of Stupid Bird 2, but about parkour games–“
Xiya was dragged by the white pigeon beside him as he spoke. He has always been so sophisticated this time because the conversation partner was Mei Fang, but he didn’t expect that he actually made a low-level mistake. When he realized it, he realized that Mei Fang’s eyes had become sharp.
The company’s internal strategy cannot be revealed to outsiders who are still interviewing!
Xiya teased a few words in fear, passed the topic perfunctorily, and then began to analyze the feasibility of this case from the perspective of planning.
“It is true that this case has its own ideas and characteristics. Compared with some of the same gameplay optimization answers we interviewed before, it is a different angle. However, from the iteration of gameplay to performance, it is easy to create a sense of forced use of this IP as a sequel… After listening to everyone’s thoughts, I think in a sense that it is okay to directly create a new game without “Flying First 2” to make an IP. “
“Actually, it’s OK. If there are major mistakes in the packaging design of the bird’s parkour packaging and the stupid bird’s flying first, we can completely redesign it and replace the bird with a ball directly. Isn’t it easier to imagine? “
“Bird… becomes a ball…”
Everyone tried to imagine the scene, “Although it has become simpler, it feels…it seems to be really good! “
“An iron ball rolls around in the gyroscope, a bit like the game “I’m a man and a hundred layers” I played a long time ago…”
Everyone gathered together to discuss it in full swing. Obviously, the gameplay displayed by Mei Fang has already made some pictures in their minds.
However, such design operations will not make Mei Fang feel very special. After all, his idea was to follow a very popular minimalist game reference design in Google Store in his previous life, called “Rolling Sky”.
“Rolling Sky” lets players control a small ball to reach the end according to various levels and obstacles. The gameplay is simple but very impressive. The implantation of its advertising incentive resurrection mechanism also makes the game particularly marketable.Music that fits rhythmically is also one of the highlights.
In Mei Fang’s opinion, whether it is combining it with the IP of “The Stupid Bird Flying First” or re-creating a brand new IP, it is a very, very good idea and concept for this planning and project establishment.
