Regardless, we still have to give a thumbs up to the Dragon-Slaying Sword!
[Even at 100% estimate, it wouldn't be much money.]
[Morning Star! Morning Star! With Blue Star taking the lead and the God of Wealth investing, the independent development market of the Sixth Star Province is saved...]
[Just found out Dragon Slayer has a new game! Haven't followed this game in ages. What's going on this year? Earth is making mobile games, and Dragon Slayer is making PC games??]
[I don't know much about it, but I support public welfare, thumbs up (thumbs up.jpg)]
Online, people are speculating that "Iron Horse and Ice River" won't make much money.
The management team of the Morningstar Incubator Charity Fund was very relaxed when signing the contract, and everyone present also signed a confidentiality agreement.
Everything was going smoothly until they saw the transfer amount.
In an instant, everyone suddenly couldn't breathe.
"………………"
?! ?! A few! small! coins!?
All of them are included, like the famous painting "The Scream".jpg
Morningstar also issued a statement regarding this donation, officially thanking the Dragon Slayer Studio for their contribution.
Moreover, with Tu Long taking the lead, many investments have come from all sectors of the industry.
Furthermore, some of the owners who are currently playing "Iron Horse and Ice River" have also sent in considerable investments in their personal capacity.
One of the business owners, Mr. Yuan, who wished to remain anonymous, remarked, "The God of Wealth has invested, which means Morningstar has potential. I'll invest ten million first to test the waters. If they can create games like 'Heavenly Defender' and 'Iron Horse and Ice River,' I'll increase my investment tenfold."
Online, however, a new round of speculation has quietly begun.
[What exactly is the relationship between the genius designer who slays dragons and our leader? They seem to be rivals, but suddenly he's donating to Morning Star?]
[These two seem to have planned this all along! One game a year on average, you make a PC game, I make a mobile game, you make a mobile game, I make a PC game?]
[To the person upstairs: Big companies all communicate with each other, right? They'll coordinate to avoid scheduling conflicts.]
[Sneaking in quietly and eating at a cult restaurant in a corner shouldn't get us noticed, right...]
[Oh my god, I'm already imagining it! A love-hate relationship between a brilliant, genius designer and a wildly imaginative, eccentric genius designer—a life-or-death struggle on the battlefield, and a life-or-death struggle off the battlefield! Is there any author who can expand this to two million words?]
[Let me offer a conspiracy theory: since Dragon Hunter didn't reach 200g this year, it couldn't compete for Game of the Year, so they released a AAA title, Iron Horse and Ice River, instead?]
[Iron Horse and Ice River has such a bad reputation, it's impossible for them to succeed. There's still some hope in the other side.]
Dragon Hunter is too small to compete with AAA titles, but it was still shortlisted for the "Boutique Game" award in the lightweight game category.
To be honest, he felt a sense of relief when the person in charge of the A-League sent the email notification...
—Goodness, at least Blue Star didn't get another consecutive title! The last vestige of the League A has been saved!
The development teams that were shortlisted for other "high-quality games" took it all in stride.
—Oh ho, competing with Earth? That's hopeless. Just consider it a publicly funded trip with all the food and drinks. Maybe I can even get the cult leader's autograph or something.
It's like a top-tier league team suddenly making a one-day trip to a secondary league; the teams that face them probably feel a sense of resignation (or a "what's the use" attitude).
Although they couldn't compete for this year's crown, the atmosphere in the Blue Star studio was still very pleasant.
No one felt regretful because:
"Ah, finally I can win a different kind of trophy!"
“It’s the same every year. I think our cabinets are too monotonous. It’s so great to suddenly get a premium one.”
"As expected, the youngest is the most favored."
Everyone happily cleared out a central space for the display case dedicated to showcasing the trophies.
From now on, there will be four "Game of the Year" awards, surrounding a "high-quality game" award!
In the second half of this year, everyone is waiting peacefully.
In June, the first Dragon Hunter Tournament was successfully held;
In September, the second expansion pack for "Xia Ke Xing" (侠客行), titled "Feng Yu Ru Hui" (风雨如晦), was officially released.
In October, the eighth top-tier tournament for League of Legends will be held;
In December, at the League of Legends Awards ceremony, the "Best Game of the Year" award was practically a foregone conclusion.
Meanwhile, after a leisurely May, the designers of Blue Star finally entered the small dark room.
A new project, a game combining escape horror and meta elements, codenamed "Healing," has entered the formal development stage!
As always, the designers are the first to get busy.
This time, the dark room is different from the previous games.
It's really "black".
There were no dazzling array of small toys, only terrifying dolls and various props placed to the side.
This is to simulate the atmosphere of a terrifying escape, so that the designers can't have too much fun, but rather to maximize their inspiration in other areas.
Even Mingyan felt a chill run down his spine when he stepped into the room.
