Starting with Genshin Impact, the whole world is going crazy for it.

His head is on fire!

Zhou Tiankuo shook his head.

Actually, the last time I played chess was a long time ago.

He only remembered that after Teamfight Tactics became a hit, Riot Games updated the game mode at an increasingly rapid pace.

The seasons for Teamfight Tactics are updated much faster than the original mechanics of League of Legends. Furthermore, Riot Games is releasing skins at a faster pace to coincide with these updates.

Zhou Tiankuo still felt a pang of regret when he thought about all the money he had invested back then.

Fortunately, I can now happily spend the money I earn from making games on in-game purchases.

No, there's no game in this world worth spending money on.

He can make any game he wants himself.

It has to be said that, thinking about this, Zhou Tiankuo felt that his sense of superiority had been fully displayed.

After turning off the live stream, Zhou Tiankuo opened his notebook.

This is a product of his recent research into the game world, combined with some of his own thoughts, and a casual record of his notes.

He found several options for himself.

DNF.

Pokémon GO.

Eat chicken.

Plants vs. Zombies...

Zhou Tiankuo's gaze lingered on the last string of words for a long time.

"I've decided on you."

Actually, according to his previous plan, he wanted to work on DNF next, because from a personal point of view, this game has been popular for a long time and has never stopped being updated.

When he was in middle school, his classmates and friends were playing this game, including himself.

Even when he was almost graduating from university, the people around him were still playing around.

It's fair to say that this game has remained popular for a very long time.

However, Zhou Tiankuo has decided to make Plants vs. Zombies first.

After all, it was requested by so many viewers in the live chat, and he had already said that he was making a related game, so he didn't want to disappoint everyone.

"We've been making big games before, so making a small game like this might be a good option to balance things out..."

Zhou Tiankuo was deep in thought.

Moreover, Plants vs. Zombies is a game suitable for all ages.

It can be done with just a mouse, but it requires a little thought.

Most importantly, it's easy to get hooked and kill time.

Playing for hours on end is a good fit for Zhou Tiankuo's current schedule.

To attract more people to become fans of Tiankuo Studio.

He opened the system database.

Plants vs. Zombies Classic Version

【Required crafting points: 5000】

Zhou Tiankuo made the purchase decisively.

Chapter 62 Winning the Competition, a Huge Reward

Zhou Tiankuo wasn't in a rush to release the new game, Plants vs. Zombies.

Teamfight Tactics has just been updated, and the next plan is to release a mobile version of League of Legends.

He doesn't want the new game to distract from the hype surrounding these two updates for the time being.

Therefore, Plants vs. Zombies will not be able to win a design award.

But we still need to make this game first.

"Host, the game you requested has been completed."

It must be said that, apart from the traitorous nature of the system, it is quite reliable.

Although Zhou Tiankuo himself was capable of replicating the game, it must be said that everything became much smoother with the help of the system.

It's also much simpler.

"Ok."

Zhou Tiankuo opened Plants vs. Zombies.

He discovered that one of his biggest characteristics after becoming a game designer was that he would play a game himself for a while after it was released.

It was a good way to have some fun.

Plants vs. Zombies was the game Zhou Tiankuo was most familiar with during his childhood.

This game has been around for many years, and its popularity has never waned.

The database, along with many other versions, shows that Plants vs. Zombies, as an evergreen game, never goes out of style.

The game itself is already quite complete and will continue to attract new players.

And manufacturers are constantly updating the technology.

Zhou Tiankuo even remembered that before that battle royale game from South Korea came out, Plants vs. Zombies had already released a Garden Warfare version.

Garden Warfare is where zombies are scattered across a map.

The plants have become movable, allowing players to control them to fight off zombies.

You can also team up.

In this respect, it is largely similar to PUBG.

Unfortunately, due to insufficient game promotion and poor server optimization, it failed to retain many players.

In addition, the art style of Plants vs. Zombies itself is more cute and quirky.

The Garden Wars also continues this art style.

So even though the map is quite detailed, some people still don't like this style of art.

So when that battle royale game from South Korea came out, many people were attracted by its tense and exciting pace.

The game's design, from the map and equipment to the character appearances, perfectly reflects its core features, making it a wildly popular game.

Recalling this point, Zhou Tiankuo let out a soft sigh.

"But it's okay. Now that I've made the original version, I'll gradually update the other versions as well."

Of course, the original version is always the most classic.

Zhou Tiankuo looked at the game that had appeared on his computer.

Just as I was about to start playing, I suddenly heard the system speak.

"Host, the results of the design award are in."

The sudden prompt startled Zhou Tiankuo.

"How come I just mentioned this a few days ago, and now..."

He even thought that if he made two more games, they would be included in the selection.

The system's voice was calm: "Host, the timing of the design award is not fixed. Moreover, many companies have been rushing to release trailers for their new games recently, so the design award may be trying to avoid some controversy by ending the selection process early."

Zhou Tiankuo seemed to be deep in thought.

He didn't ask about the results of the system design award for the time being, but instead opened a webpage and did a simple search.

As the system predicted, it turned out to be true!

These major companies have released more than just one or two teasers recently.

Even after being publicly called out and criticized by players, the penguin still didn't know when to stop.

Two more game trailers were then released.

It's a League of Legends game that looks like a rip-off, but it's targeting the mobile game market.

It's basically a direct copy of the League of Legends model, but as a mobile version, it's been optimized in many ways.

"That's quite clever. The PC gaming market is already dominated by League of Legends, so they're releasing a similar mobile version before my mobile game is even finished..."

Zhou Tiankuo shook his head.

Isn't it just like that mobile game, Honor of Kings?

However, he remembered that in that world, League of Legends was actually distributed by Tencent.

So the players' complaints weren't that loud.

However, there is still a clear hierarchy of contempt in the gaming world.

Another game is actually a copy of Teamfight Tactics.

However, it's a mobile game version.

Zhou Tiankuo laughed heartily.

What? Are you just taking advantage of the fact that the mobile game version hasn't been released yet?

This trailer was made with a lot of effort.

Judging from the two trailers, Zhou Tiankuo could clearly sense Tencent's determination to make money.

He was already silently calculating. If he submitted it directly as evidence, would it be considered plagiarism?

How much money can he squeeze out of Penguin?
