Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

"It's already 9 PM?"

"So fast?!"

"Oh no, Seele forgot to cook!"

Actually, if you're playing alone, you won't lose track of time.

But what if it's three people who know each other well laughing and joking together?

In such a lively and joyful atmosphere, it's perfectly normal for time to be ignored, isn't it?

You know, a graphics card is nothing compared to the game's highest-end specs...

It was so late, so Seele quickly let go of her brother and went downstairs. Kaguya also got up, ready to go and help Seele.

"No need to cook tonight."

He smiled, pulled Xier into his arms, and held up his phone in front of her, despite her puzzled look.

"I was craving barbecue tonight, so I ordered some earlier. Here, you can choose whatever you want to eat."

As he spoke, he handed over his phone.

"Eating barbecue at night is bad for your health..."

"You're craving something sweet."

She muttered something under her breath, glanced helplessly at her brother, and quickly stopped pursuing the matter. She then excitedly began discussing it with her older sisters Bronya and Kaguya.

She actually wanted some barbecue too, hehe~

Chapter 135 Bronya: How much, how many?

As time went on, Plants vs. Zombies became an absolute hit.

This game, suitable for all ages, from the elderly to five or six years old, has become incredibly popular and rightfully became the most popular game at the mini-game festival.

Because of the grand scale of this event, even the ranking rewards have been increased significantly.

The top-ranked game's major recommendation period has been extended from three weeks to one month, while the second and third place games will receive minor recommendations for two weeks and one week, respectively. The top ten games will also have a separate list on the software's homepage, showing a lot of sincerity. Of course, the most popular game is still "Plants vs. Zombies".

When it was officially released on the Titan Games platform, Ellie and Eden's live stream of gameplay further ignited its popularity.

In particular, the random mode they tried together brought the show's entertainment value and fun to the peak. The way Miss Fairy was so angry that she broke down and Eden laughed out loud was really hilarious. In just a few days, its popularity even surpassed that of Pokémon.

In addition, it only costs 25 Titan game points, which is about the price of a meal for an average person. Most people don't care about spending this little money to bring themselves a not-so-short period of happy time.

"So, are you ready to admit defeat?"

A week after the release, Nangong Yu and his family sat in the living room waiting for the weekly sales data from the back office.

With his arms around the somewhat silent Bronya and Kaguya, Nangong Yu said smugly.

"The results aren't out yet, what if I win?"

With her head down, Bronya said things that even she didn't believe.

There was nothing they could do. They felt they had done a pretty good job, but who could have imagined that Nangong Yu would cheat like that? This seemingly simple game had Xier, who doesn't play games much, become addicted for several days, and she still occasionally opens it to play the entertainment mode.

As for herself and Kaguya, they were already completely immersed in the endless fun of creating mischief in the endless mode.

I really want to pry open Yu's brain and see what's inside.

Kaguya didn't speak, but her expression, which was similar to Bronya's, said it all.

The only difference is that Kaguya doesn't actually have that much competitive spirit when facing Nangong Yu. Although it's a bit of a pity that she didn't get to give her husband any orders, he usually doesn't refuse her requests.

As for her husband ordering her around?

She listens to her husband, so why would she need any authority to command?

"Fine, let's wait for the results and see how Bronya still talks."

Bronya looked up and glared at him defiantly, but it was no use. Nangong Yu chuckled and even leaned down to kiss her on the lips.

Sure enough, even the toughest lips become soft when kissed.

Bronya blushed for a moment, then swung her little fist and punched him on the shoulder.

Suddenly, Seele, who was sitting at the computer, exclaimed, "The results are in!"

The clock hand also pointed to the twelve o'clock position at this moment.

"Let's look at Bronya and Kaguya's first."

"Ah."

Following her brother's voice, Seele clicked the mouse and quickly opened the background data of their game.

"Ninety-eight hundred thousand!"

Seele immediately reported the sales figures from the back office.

"It's almost a million, that's pretty good!"

Despite being praised by Yu, Bronya and Kaguya showed no pride. They stared intently at the screen, watching Seele open the data for "Plants vs. Zombies".

Soon, when the number appeared in the center of the screen, the first three digits, 150, made Bronya breathe a sigh of relief.

Oh, so it's only a little over 1.5 million, not much better than them at all~

Before Bronya could even relax, Seele's barely concealed exclamation stunned her.

"Fifteen million?!?!"

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Bronya thought she had misheard and looked up blankly, asking, "How much?"

"Fifteen million, to be precise, fifteen million, seventy-nine thousand five hundred and twenty-seven copies."

"..."

Kaguya's trembling voice silenced Bronya.

She stared at the string of numbers, counting them over and over again.

After confirming that it was indeed an eight-digit number, I almost fainted.

No, fifteen million??

What kind of monster is this? Is there no justice? Is there no law?

She didn't understand, but was deeply shocked.

This isn't some Pokémon game that required a huge investment of manpower and resources from Anti-Entropy; it's just a small game that Nangong Yu and three newcomers made in just a few months!

When you are tired, destroy it quickly.

From now on, let whoever wants to compete with Yu can compete with her; she simply has no interest in it anymore.

"So many? That's a bit beyond my expectations. Is Eden's publicity really that effective?"

Nangong Yu's voice also sounded somewhat surprised. In his expectations, around ten million would be the maximum, but he didn't expect it to be fifty percent more than he anticipated. This was an unexpected surprise.

Seeing Kaguya and Bronya looking dejected, Nangong Yu tightened his arms around them and comforted them with a smile.

However, to Bronya and Kaguya, the current act of comforting her seemed somewhat like showing off.

There's nothing I can do, this is just too much of a blow.

It's supposed to be a race? The taillights of this car are almost invisible. What's the point of competing? They might as well just admit defeat from the start.

Seeing her two older sisters, especially Bronya's dejected look, Seele stopped herself from celebrating loudly, her little face turning red.

Before long, the news began to cause a stir online as gaming media reported on it.

'Fifteen million units sold in the first week? Designer Nangong has once again ascended to his pedestal!'

How did a small game become a global phenomenon? I think there are several reasons.

'Plants vs. Zombies Endless Mode Strategy Guide Summary'

'...'

This online discussion undoubtedly brought new popularity to "Plants vs. Zombies," causing the previously slowing sales curve to surge again.

Thanks to technological advancements, most people have become more aware of copyright, and their spending power on games is far greater than Nangong Yu remembered in her previous life.

This achievement naturally made many game developers green with envy.

The main advantage of "To the Moon" is its top-notch plot, which is impossible to copy.

Hollow Knight's main appeal lies in its excellent gameplay and exquisite level design, which are difficult to copy. Never mind.

Pokémon is easy to copy, but Anti-Entropy's legal department warned that they don't have the guts!

Now that Plants vs. Zombies is out, they can surely learn a thing or two from it!

Brothers, take note!

Gameplay mechanics are something that can't be copied, otherwise everyone would probably stop making games.

In just a few days, various reskinned versions of "Plants vs. Zombies" appeared on the market, but Nangong Yu didn't bother to care.

Some people are just sitting in the corner drinking soup; he doesn't need to spend any extra effort on them.
