Chapter IV Project Outsourcing

On the other hand, what is needed to develop a game?

A programmer with great skills, a masterpiece that can control the game rhythm, and is responsible for level design, numerical and plot planning, plus art that is responsible for game modeling, action and design style?

Well, these are all needed.

Of course, you can also include all of these together, and then say it more simply and clearly, that is, small money!

If the development cycle and development quality of a game are completely linked to money, it is a bit absolute.

But it can definitely greatly reduce the difficulties encountered in development. The so-called development difficulties of most game development teams do not really mean that they encountered some bottleneck during the development process, but that their budget funds are not enough for them to solve them with money.

Yang Chen, who has hundreds of thousands of dollars in hand and has already made up his mind to find out the outsourcing, is at least much easier than some independent game makers.

It is a little smoother than what Yang Chen thought, including outsourcing such as UI, music, and art modeling. Yang Chen directly contacted a second-tier outsourcing company in Jiang City.

Although the charge is a bit more expensive, the corresponding scale and reputation are guaranteed to be consistent with strength.

After all, the game outsourcing industry is a mixed bag. Some small company studios with outsourcing brands even act like second-trade dealers.

Simply put, it is pimping and outsourcing the outsourcing work to a third-party studio again. This phenomenon is quite common in this industry.

If you really encounter it, there will be some disputes. Even if you can get the money in the end, your game project will basically be over.

So Yang Chen would rather spend more money to find a more reliable outsourcing company than to find out those outsourcing companies that are cheaper but have never heard of them.

"The price is so expensive!" Wang Yaliang, who was sleeping on Yang Chen's thigh in the rental house, looked at the offer from the outsourcing company, and licked the ice cream in surprise.

"It's a bit expensive, but they're more likely to trust some small outsourcing. If you eat less, don't eat badly." Yang Chen knocked on his laptop with both hands, looking at Wang Yaliang sleeping on his thighs, and moved without a trace.

I had been leaning on it for almost half an hour, and my thighs were almost numb.

"No...will...I'm just consuming the second one today, and the first one would be eaten in the morning." Wang Yaliang, who wrapped the ice cream in his mouth and was so cold that he was so cold that he was so cold that he said in a dim manner.

"I made an appointment with the other party to go to the other party's company in the afternoon to see their situation. Do you want to go with me?" Yang Chen turned his head and looked at Wang Yaliang who was licking Qiaolezi back and forth with his tongue. Taking advantage of her inattention, she bit the ice cream into a big gap under her shocked gaze.

For general outsourcing projects, basically, transfer the effect samples online, and then feel that they pay a deposit, and then pay according to the results.

As for the reason for going to the other party’s company to talk to, it is mainly because Chu Yang has some special requirements, and it is best to be able to explain it in person. This game can be said to determine your future destiny, and it is not an exaggeration to pay attention to it.

What's more, the other party's company is not far from Jiang City.

"No, the finale of the drama this afternoon." Wang Yaliang bit the ate of the popsicle that had eaten up, thought for about two or three seconds, and then said decisively to Yang Chen.

"Okay." Yang Chen showed a true expression and responded.

At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Chen came to the High-tech Industrial Park in Jiang City.

A game outsourcing company called "Chasing Dreams". If you really want to be famous, it will definitely not be comparable to the famous "Vitas", but there have been some projects that are outstanding, and their strength is pretty good. This is one of the reasons why Yang Chen chose it mainly.

The company is quite large, with about twenty employees working. After glanced at Yang Chen, he could basically tell that most of them were making art materials for web games and mobile games.

From the character style, you can see it at a glance.

In the office, he moved the disposable tea cup next to him and Yang Chen placed his laptop on the table.

"Mr. Yang Chen, do you want to do a single-player game with pixel-style?" A man with glasses about thirty years old asked Chu Yang curiously.

The boss of Hu Jun, the "Dream Chasing" outsourcing company, actually does not value Yang Chen's business very much, but he is still very surprised by the game Yang Chen wants to make.

After all, stand-alone games are really not popular in China. Although there is not a market, it is obviously a trend of polarization, especially for outsourcing companies like them.

Most of their businesses are mobile games, online games and web games, and stand-alone games basically do not receive a single order throughout the year.

After all, companies that have money to do stand-alone players do not need to seek outsourcing like them; while independent studios and independent game producers, because of the lack of development costs, they want a programmer to complete all game development work.

So when Yang Chen talked to him about the type of game he developed, Hu Jun was really curious.

"That's right." Yang Chen nodded.

"It's not easy to do in a stand-alone business!" Hu Jun couldn't help but sigh: "Especially speaking of pixel-style games, to be honest, this kind of pixel-like game is really thankless. I remember that some time ago, did there be a pixel-like game with a dungeon magical theme that suddenly died?"

Pixel wind, dungeons, magical themes...

I'm so sorry, you're talking about me!

But then again, if you have money, who wants to do low resolution, who wants to do pixels? Who doesn’t want to make the modeling in their games into high-definition 3D?

Yang Chen's expression did not change much, but he felt a little embarrassed.

“I believe in the game I want to make.”

However, Yang Chen soon thought of his dream memories, and the countless amazing games made Yang Chen full of confidence.

Maybe I am really a little girl in the game industry now, but I am not alone anymore. I am standing on the shoulders of giants and have the wealth of another planet behind me.

Hu Jun said nothing about Yang Chen's confidence. Although he is not a big shot, he has been in this industry for a long time. Before he started "Chasing Dreams", he has seen too many young people who are full of confidence and do not look back without hitting the wall.

"Chu Yang." Hu Jun shouted outside. After two seconds, a handsome young man knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mr. Hu." Chu Yang walked into the door, looked at Yang Chen who was sitting on the stool, and then walked towards Hu Jun.

"Chu Yang, our company's art director. Mr. Yang, what specific requirements do you have and what style requirements do you have? Just mention them to Chu Yang directly." Hu Jun introduced to Yang Chen.

After a few polite words, Yang Chen followed Chu Yang to his office.

A few minutes later, Yang Chen looked at the original sketch drawn by Chu Yang according to his description and shook his head: "No, it's not this style."

How to describe it?
