The Godfather of Gaming in Daily Anime

Kato Megumi shook her head slightly. Although her tone was still calm, to Muto Yu, there was a firmness hidden in her voice that could not be changed.

Perhaps this is also a manifestation of being soft on the outside and strong on the inside?

"Thank you so much for your support, Kato-san. Remember to give us a good review after your visit on Wednesday."

"it is good."

..............................

The afternoon passed in a flash as he was drawing the art resources for Terraria. After returning home with his schoolbag, Yu Muto immediately rushed into the bedroom.

After transferring all the images on the tablet to the computer, perform some simple processing, and then drag them into the corresponding resource folder to use them normally.

This is the benefit of having complete development documentation. The naming of each picture has been specified. With the existence of documentation, even if multiple people are developing, they will not end up doing their own thing and the program will not be incompatible with various resources.

Click Run and a new pop-up window will pop up. The loading interface above is different from the original "Plants vs. Zombies".

After all, there is no PopCap Games in this world, so Yuu Muto would not copy their logo.

But he didn't spend too much time on the logo. It is a cube-shaped seal-like mark with the four Chinese characters "Kayaba Akihiko" written from left to right and from top to bottom.

Simple and clear, it can also increase players' impression of the name.

By the way, this is Yu Muto’s own exclusive logo. When he sets up a studio or even a company in the future, he will design a separate logo and will not use it universally.

Moreover, only games directed by Yuu Muto himself will have the "Kayaba Akihiko" logo added at the beginning of the game, in order to ensure the value of this sign.

After the loading interface disappeared, Muto Yu looked at the computer screen with an expression of nostalgia on his face. How many people's beautiful memories of their youth are carried by this start menu interface?

Taking a deep breath, Muto Yu pressed the start button and the familiar tutorial level began. Whether it was a new player or an old player, the novice level was not difficult at all.

This game mode of starting easy and then becoming difficult will make people spend a lot of time in the game without realizing it.

When Yu Muto came back to his senses from the game, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Almost five hours had passed since he came back to complete the debugging.

After going through many levels and defeating many enemies along the way, only about one-third of the main storyline of the game is left.

After playing the game as a whole, no serious bugs have been found so far, and some minor problems that are not serious have been recorded by Yu Muto. Of course, the beta version of the game also has special log documents.

But the urgent problem now is the hungry stomach.

Because when he was in school, he usually cooked new meals in the evening, and then saved the leftovers to make fried rice the next day, and ate it for breakfast and lunch.

So if Muto Yu wanted to eat, he had to wait until the rice in the pot was cooked, which took about twenty minutes. So after a brief thought, he decided to go to a 24-hour convenience store not far from his home to buy some lunch boxes.

There should be discounted bento boxes on sale at this time. He hasn't tasted the bento boxes from Sakura Empire yet. If not, he can just buy some bread and instant noodles to fill his stomach.

"Think of it as a celebration for the completion of Plants vs. Zombies."

After finding a reason for himself in his mind, putting on a coat, Muto Yu walked towards the 24-hour convenience store not far away.

Should I say it's lucky or unfortunate that there are only two discounted bento boxes left. One is a high-end seafood bento box for 999 yen after discount. It contains various seafood dishes, with rich variety and sufficient quantity.

The other one was a hamburger lunch box for 299 yen after discount, which contained a decent-sized piece of hamburger, half a boiled egg, some miscellaneous vegetables, and the rest was rice.

Although life also needs a sense of ritual to celebrate the completion of the new game, after a brief hesitation, Muto Yu, who had the habit of thriftiness in his previous life, chose the cheaper hamburger lunch box.

It was like the first meal I had after traveling to this world. I said I wanted to have a sumptuous meal, but in fact I chose beef ramen for 1,000 yen, which was the price of an ordinary buffet in my previous life.

But the commemorative significance of this meal is far less than the first meal after the time travel, so forget about the 1,000 yen lunch box.

As I walked out of the convenience store with my hamburger lunch box, I suddenly heard a familiar voice behind me.

"Junior?"

Following the sound, he looked over and saw the familiar purple twintails. Looking at Liangfeng Qingye wearing a formal outfit that looked like a school uniform, Muto You was stunned for a moment.

"Sister Liangfeng, did you just get off work?"

Chapter 22 Inviting Qingye and the other two to try the game

"Well, I just got off work, and the character modeling I'm working on is almost done, so I just stayed overtime."

After Liangfeng Qingye finished speaking, his eyes fell on the bento in Muto You's hand.

"Are you out here to buy lunch?"

"Well, a hamburger bento for 300 yen after the discount seems pretty good."

"If you're looking for discounted bento, it's actually a bit late now. This convenience store's sale starts at 8 o'clock, and it's already 9 o'clock, so the cheap and good deals are basically all gone."

Liangfeng Qingye shared her own experience. Although she herself did not have much experience in grabbing discounted items in convenience stores, there were many people in bustling Tokyo who relied on these discounted items to survive. She had never eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run.

"No wonder there are only two kinds of bento left. It turns out they were left over by others."

It’s a bit helpless to think about it, but it’s good to have something to eat. At least the lunch box in my hand is 50% off, so it’s good to save half.

"But do you also rely on lunch boxes to survive every day, junior brother?"

Suzukaze Aoba asked curiously, remembering that Muto Yuu lived alone.

“No, I usually cook for myself. Even though I don’t know a lot, the food I make is not bad, and most importantly, it’s cheap.

Today is a special occasion, I wanted to celebrate the completion of the game and give myself a reward, but I didn't expect to be late."

After hearing what Muto Yu said, Liangfeng Qingye's attention quickly shifted to the completion of the game. After a slight surprise, an expression of anticipation and excitement appeared on his face.

"The game is finished?! Is it Plants vs. Zombies?!"

"Yes, that's it. We rushed the release schedule a bit to meet the deadline. After all, submitting it for review early can help prevent any unexpected issues. If we delay the release, our hard-earned reputation will be shattered."

Although black and red are also red, there are some blacks that you cannot touch.

"That's true."

While the two were talking, they had already arrived outside the house. Because of hunger, Muto Yu chose to temporarily end the topic and waved directly to Suzukaze Aoba.

"Sister Liangfeng, I'm going back first. Let's chat on Line later."

"okay."

When I got home, I didn’t care that the lunch box was cold. I ate all the food in it in no time, and the feeling of hunger finally disappeared.

Then Muto Yu did not forget to prepare the rice needed for making fried rice tomorrow. The bento was still a bit too luxurious for him.

Muto: "Sister Liangfeng, are you free on Saturday?"

Liang Feng: "I already have an appointment on Saturday. I'm going to the movies with my high school classmates. What's up?"

Muto: "Sunday is fine then. Actually, I was wondering if you and Iijima-san and the others would like to come over and experience the beta version of Plants vs. Zombies in advance."

Muto: "By the way, please help me observe whether there are obvious bugs in the game under various circumstances."

Although this is taking advantage of Liangfeng Qingye and the others' labor for free, there would be no problem if they were willing.

Liangfeng: "Try out the new game...Okay, I'll go. I'm free on Saturday afternoon."

In the morning, I can accompany Sakura Ningning to watch the "Magical Girl Gekko Sentai" series of movies, and in the afternoon I can go to Muto Yu to try out the new game.

The time is arranged perfectly. It can only be said that Liangfeng Qingye also has the potential to become a master of time management.

Muto: "Okay, then I'll go tell Iijima-senpai and Shinoda-senpai."

After saying that, Muto Yu exited the private chat interface and looked at Iijima Yuune and Shinoda Hatsu in the friend list. After hesitating for a moment, he chose to communicate with the latter who had a more straightforward personality first.

Muto: "Shinoda-senpai, are you free on Saturday?"

Muto: "Plants vs. Zombies is finished. If you have time on Saturday, would you like to come over and try it out?"

Shinoda: "Saturday? Is afternoon okay? I'm going to the movies this morning. It's the latest installment in the Magical Girl Gekko Sentai series, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

Muto: "Of course the afternoon is no problem. Suzukaze-san happens to be free on Saturday afternoon as well."

Shinoda: "Okay, I'll go on Saturday afternoon."

Shinoda: "By the way, did you invite Yuine?"

Muto: "Of course I won't forget Iijima-senpai. I'm going to send her a message next."

Shinoda: "That's good, that's good, okay, it's settled then. I'll get back to you on Saturday afternoon."

After the agreement was made, Muto Yu opened the private chat interface of Iijima Yuune, thought about it, and sent a message directly asking the other party if she was free on Saturday afternoon.

After all, everyone else is in the afternoon. If Iijima Yuune comes in the morning, then Muto Yu and the other person will feel uncomfortable being alone in a room. After all, the two of them have only met once and are friends of friends.

After Muto Yu stated that Suzukaze Aoba and Shinoda would come together for the first time on Saturday afternoon, Iijima Yuune also replied to the message that they would come together after a while.

She didn't reply immediately, perhaps she went to ask Suzukaze Aoba or Shinoda Hatsu for confirmation? Although she was the one being guarded, Muto Yu still felt that it was a good thing for girls to be a little cautious.

..............................

I drew the art resources for Terraria during the day on Friday, and went home in the evening to start fixing a few harmless bugs that appeared during the game yesterday.

By the way, I completed the main storyline of "Plants vs. Zombies", and tested various mini-games on Saturday morning. Overall, there were still no major bugs.

The process of testing the mini-game was also recorded by Yu Muto through screen recording, and then after a simple editing, it was released as the third promotional post for "Plants vs. Zombies", which was also the last pre-sale warm-up post.

This time, a lot more people responded to the post with comments like "looking forward to it", "the author is very efficient", "highly productive", "the plants are cute", and "it looks very interesting".

Not long after lunch, the doorbell rang. Through the peephole, Muto Yu saw Suzukaze and Aoba, the other two who had agreed to come over today.

"Welcome, Sister Liangfeng, Senior Shinoda, and Senior Iijima."

At this time, Liangfeng Qingye changed into casual clothes and looked extremely cute, making people always have the urge to hug her in their arms and rub her.

Yuito Iijima was wearing a Gothic long skirt. At the age of 25, she was in the prime of her youth and still looked very cute.

As for Shinoda Hatsu, who was wearing a long-sleeved sweatshirt and jeans, if it weren't for the huge curves in front of his body, Muto Yu might really have mistaken him for a boy.

"Here, this is a gift!"

After Suzukaze Aoba took the lead, Iijima Yuune and Shinoda Hatsuya handed the things they had prepared to Muto Yu, which made him a little dazed.

Chapter 23: Peeping Aoba

(Due to many readers' suggestions, the brain attribute has been deleted, leaving only the physical attribute, and each increase requires two points.)

Muto Yu subconsciously took the souvenirs handed over by Suzukaze Aoba and the others. When he led everyone to the living room, he realized what had happened.

Originally, he wanted Liangfeng Qingye and the other two to work for free, but after they came, not only did they not get paid, but they even had to pay some money (as souvenirs).

Although he was a little surprised and felt a little guilty, Muto Yu quickly adjusted his mood, asked the three of them if they wanted anything to drink, and then brought over the drinks they ordered.

"Okay, serve it quickly, we have been waiting for it for a long time."

Shinoda Hatsu had an expectant expression on his face, and then he saw Muto Yu take out two laptops from the side.

"Sister Liangfeng, did you bring your computer?"

"I brought it. Here you go."

Liangfeng also took out his notebook from the bag, and then Muto Yu copied the game over. The three of them each had a computer, and then the only sounds in the living room were the background music of "Plants vs. Zombies" and various hitting sound effects.

Seeing that the three people had focused their attention on the game, Yu Muto also picked up the second-hand digital tablet he bought from Suzukaze Aoba and continued to draw the art resources of "Terraria".

Time passed slowly and silently. After going through more than ten levels in one breath, Liangfeng Qingye, who felt a little thirsty, paused the game temporarily and reached out to take the glass of orange juice beside him.

After relieving his thirst, Ryoukaze Aoba looked curiously at Iijima Yuune and Shinoda Hatsu who were concentrating on the side.

Their game progress is not much different from Liangfeng Qingye's. People will subconsciously make all kinds of comparisons. When they see that others are similar to themselves, they will also feel a sense of relief.

He withdrew his gaze from the two of them, and then turned to look for the figure of Muto Yu. The other party was not far away, holding a digital tablet in one hand and a hand-drawing pen in the other, writing and drawing something with very neat and decisive movements.

"Is this what a junior looks like when he works hard?"

He quietly took in this scene, and something indescribable flowed through the depths of Liangfeng Qingye's heart. It seemed that nothing was left behind, but also that something was left behind.

"What's wrong? Qingye, what are you looking at?"

Perhaps because she had maintained the same posture for too long, Iijima Yuune stretched hard and loosened her stiff neck.

Then he saw Suzukaze Aoba who was staring at Muto Yu in a daze, and asked subconsciously.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just spent too much time looking at the computer screen and my eyes are feeling uncomfortable. I want to give them a rest."

Liangfeng Qingye answered immediately, and even she admired herself for being able to come up with this excuse quickly at the critical moment.

"Is it really?"

"Of course, I won't talk to you anymore. I still have to continue playing games."

"I……"

Iijima Yuune looked at Ryoufu Aoba, whose face had an unnatural blush, and did not intend to let him go easily. But just as she said a little, the movement here attracted Muto Yuu who was not far away.
