The Godfather of Gaming in Daily Anime

Under the leadership of Yu Muto, the entire Eagle Leap programming department is carrying out the final debugging and inspection. According to the test reports of the alpha and beta test versions, there are not many places that need to be debugged in the official version.

"I hereby declare that the project for Atelier Ryza is officially complete. The game will be released on May 1st as previously announced, and the burned discs have been delivered to various stores.

There is some bad news, though: everyone will have to work overtime during this year's May Golden Week to prevent major accidents. However, there are two pieces of good news.

Chapter 238 Game Settlement

"The first one is for overtime during holidays. I've calculated quadruple your overtime pay. The other one is that Yeyue should have asked you all to vote before. According to the final voting results, I will organize everyone to go to Hokkaido to view the cherry blossoms in mid-May."

After hearing the bad news from Yu Muto, the girls inevitably showed disappointment on their faces.

But after hearing the next two pieces of good news, all the disappointment on the faces of Feiying Yuedong employees disappeared, leaving only determination and expectation.

Feiying's high work enthusiasm and extremely high work efficiency deserve better treatment from Muto Yu. Moreover, high salary and benefits will also attract more talents.

During the Golden Week, "Atelier Ryza" was officially released, with sales of 1.2 million copies on the first day, which is naturally far less than Yuu Muto's other games.

However, both Yu Muto himself and Eagle Leap are quite satisfied with this result, because this is no longer a small or medium-sized game.

This game compresses the plot and gameplay of the three "Atelier Ryza" works, and with some DLC, the total size of the game is only 120GB.

This is also due to the game development documents and some remote guidance from Yu Muto, which has brought the game optimization to a fairly high level.

Moreover, the character modeling, map modeling, action design, etc. can all be said to be constantly improved, and the quality is much better than the original "Atelier Ryza" in the previous life.

This game also represents the highest level that Eagle Leap can achieve under the leadership of Yu Muto.

Some media outlets that had predicted that Yuu Muto could only dominate the small and medium-sized gaming sector have now had to stop.

On the third day after the game was released, the first game testing organization to complete the main line also released their evaluation results.

It is still the familiar AGN game review agency. Perhaps because the size of the game has increased, the content of this review is unprecedentedly large.

Yu Muto glanced at the review content:

"A massive map... a beautiful, moving, and compact story... an intriguing alchemy system... a unique key system... dozens of playable characters... a wide variety of character costumes... incredibly optimized...

Summary: This is a very good game. As the style that Eagle Leap has always been good at, this time with the change of Mr. Akihiko Kayaba as the president, the level of the game produced has not only not declined at all, but is even better than the previous "Elf Story" series.

I look forward to Eagle Jump producing more interesting games under the leadership of Mr. Akihiko Kayaba."

In short, if Yu Muto himself was not the developer, he would really suspect that the developer of "Atelier Ryza" had given money to the AGN game review agency.

The whole review has only a few minor shortcomings, and the rest is full of praise. The score is 9.5 points, which is just a symbolic reduction of 0.5 points.

Muto Yu also looked through the comments of other players, and most of them were positive reviews. Some praised the plot, some praised the gameplay, and of course, there were also some who praised the legs.

After all, in the previous life, this was a work that was known as "Ten years of alchemy and no one cared, but one day the world knew about the meat legs."

Of course, there are also points rewards settled by the system, and this is what Muto Yu values ​​most, and the settlement was completed on the day of release.

It was a pity that he didn't get any extra rewards, but the points he earned from this game made Muto Yu have no regrets at all.

Because "Atelier Ryza" has accumulated a total of 116 points!

It can only be said that after the size of the game increased, the settlement points also began to rise. On the day that Muto Yu obtained the points, his points became zero.

First, the two auras were upgraded to Lv5, which cost a total of 110 points (30+40+40). The remaining 6 points were directly added to the physical fitness. So now Muto Yu's personal panel is as follows:

Name: Yuu Muto

Constitution: 50 (originally 47)

Points: 0

「技能」：游戏编程Lv7、2D绘画Lv7、厨艺家常菜Lv6、3D建模Lv5、保健按摩Lv6

「Halo」: Potential Enhancement Lv5, Energetic Lv5

My current physique is enough to support the upgrade of ordinary skills to Lv8, but firstly, I don’t have any points, and secondly, the skill effect of Lv7 is already a dimensionality reduction attack.

Therefore, we will continue to upgrade the halo for the time being to further improve the gain effect, while recruiting more employees to make the efficiency of game production higher and higher in the future. In this way, the development will be slower now, but we can grow rapidly in the future.

It's like playing "Plants vs. Zombies". Using potato mines in the early stage can save sunlight and plant the most sunflowers in the shortest time, so that you can achieve sunlight freedom in the later stage.

Getting back to the point, what made everyone at Eagle Leap breathe a sigh of relief was that Atelier Ryza did not have any undiscovered serious bugs during its release.

During the seven days of the Golden Week, in addition to daily maintenance and archiving of game development materials, Muto Yu also took out the completed game engine Type-L and guided the programming department to conduct high-intensity testing.

At the same time, he also taught these loyal employees how to use this game engine.

The programmers also studied very seriously. After all, they were able to play the snow survival shooting game under the leadership of Awagen Haizi, so they were naturally very interested in FPS games.

After learning that this game engine was the one they would use to develop Left 4 Dead (2), these heroic sisters naturally learned to be extremely attentive.

On the last day of Golden Week, Eagle Leap held a celebration party, which was the same as the celebration party when "Elf Story 3" was completed, but it was larger in scale and had more guests.

When Yuu Muto walked onto the stage, the audience, including employees, representatives of friendly companies, voice actors, and other audience members, burst into thunderous applause.

Even though Muto Yu is younger than everyone present, no one can underestimate this high school student who has just entered his second year of high school. For the gaming industry, Kayaba Akihiko's existence is like a legend.

"Hello everyone, I'm Kayaba Akihiko. The tremendous success of Atelier Ryza is inseparable from your efforts and support..."

Although Muto Yu wanted to be unique, after thinking about it, he finally chose a way of speaking that did not seek credit but avoided mistakes.

He briefly summarized the development status, praised some outstanding employees and gave them salary increases, and finally announced the existence of the new game.

"Our next new game is an FPS game, team survival, doomsday survival... In short, everyone can look forward to it."

Chapter 239 Feeding

The game has not officially started production yet, and Yuya Muto can only briefly reveal some ambiguous things. After all, Eagle Leap is only a medium-sized game development studio.

If they reveal too much detail, perhaps a large company with tens of thousands of employees will follow their example and complete the development earlier than them.

Although the quality of the game will ultimately determine the outcome, this is obviously of no benefit to Yu Muto, who is no lack of fame and popularity.

If the game is not well-known enough, you can openly announce more details. When other game manufacturers get involved, it can also serve as a gimmick to increase the popularity of the work.

But there are no ifs in the world, and Muto Yuya, who has the golden signboard of "Kayaba Akihiko", has no need to do this.

After the celebration banquet, Hazuki Shizuku began to organize everyone to go to Hokkaido to see the cherry blossoms, but this had nothing to do with Muto Yu.

With the end of the Golden Week, Muto Yuya has to go back to school. After all, the private Toyonosaki Academy also has attendance requirements. In order to graduate successfully, in addition to not failing any science subjects, he is also required to meet a certain attendance rate.

With Yu Muto's current status, he could actually get privileges by communicating with the school leaders of Toyonosaki, but after thinking about it, he decided to go to school honestly.

For him, he had already experienced high school life once in his previous life. Although it was quite stressful, he had experienced it after all.

Moreover, in Muto Yu's view, the entire first year of high school life in this world was just that. After all, apart from the three heroines of this school, he had almost no extra interactions with other people.

Under this premise, Muto Yu chose to continue to return to school, in fact, just to ensure that he would not be absent from Kato Keisama's high school memories. Companionship is very important.

So Yuu Muto returned to his normal life, drawing art resources for his next game, "Red Alert", in class during the day, and writing the program for the game after school.

This game in the previous life was not very large in size and did not take up many resources, but in contrast, its style was hard to describe, revealing the vicissitudes of history everywhere.

Another thing is that in the past, when this game was first released, the fields of network security and software security were not as developed as they are today. In other words, if this game was copied directly, players would not have any gaming experience.

By then, it can probably be called a war of the gods, so software security must be paid special attention, which will lead to a further increase in the size of the game.

The game's graphics, UI layout design, building construction animations, etc., all need to be reset according to a modern style, or even use some futuristic sci-fi style, which will increase the performance requirements for image loading and rendering, and will also be a huge increase in the size of the game.

In addition to the above problems, Yu Muto also plans to make this game into an expandable entity.

After all, RTS games like "Red Alert" and "StarCraft" are actually similar things, to be honest. They have certain common parts, and this core framework is what Yu Muto wants.

In the future, RTS games like "StarCraft" will be sold directly as DLC expansion packs of "Red Alert".

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

The promotion of Eagle Leap's new game has aroused the expectations of many game enthusiasts, but of course there are also some who question it from the beginning.

After all, neither Yu Muto himself nor Eagle Leap has experience in making large-scale FPS games, so it is normal for some people to have doubts.

Along the way, we have also witnessed the rise of Yuu Muto, the god of games. Among netizens spanning more and more different gaming fields, the majority of them blindly believe that he can also do well in FPS games.

However, the news on the Internet had no effect on Muto Yu. Instead, he was happy to see the players arguing with each other. After all, these were all hot topics that could bring more publicity to this game that had just started production.

And now that Yu Muto has an increasingly mature operations team, Gamma Studio will always pay attention to the trends of online topics.

Control the development of the topic at the appropriate time. This thing must never be allowed to grow wildly or be manipulated and guided by others with ulterior motives.

After taking a look at the online debate topic which was still under control, Muto Yu closed his laptop, had a simple breakfast, and rode his motorcycle towards the place where he had agreed to meet the girl.

The person I'm going to date today is Kasumigaoka Utaha, and she seems to have run out of inspiration again. This situation happened in the final stage of "Clannad", so Muto Yu naturally had to do his best to help her solve this problem.

So the two of them agreed to go out for a field trip today, still dressed as a couple. Although Muto Yuya was not sure whether this would work, since it was Kasumigaoka Utaha's request, he nodded and agreed.

The snacks at the roadside stalls tasted pretty good, and browsing some old books in the used bookstore was like a treasure hunt. Finally, the two of them came to a fast food restaurant for lunch.

"Yuu, I want some fries!"

"When we ordered just now, I asked you if you wanted to eat it, but you said no. I'll go order another serving of fries for you now."

"No no no, Yuu, I want your share."

As Kasumigaoka Utaha spoke, she winked at Muto Yuu, leaned forward slightly, and opened her mouth to the boy.

Obviously, she not only wants the other person's fries, but also wants Muto Yu to feed her personally. It should be said that she is worthy of being a senior, and her aggressiveness is increasing day by day.

"Is it okay?"

"What does it matter? Aren't we lovers now? It's normal to feed each other, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha rolled her eyes at Muto Yuu because she could hear a hint of bad taste in his words, and she cooperated quite well by giving the answer he wanted to hear.

"Oh yes, we are lovers now, so feeding is a normal thing."

Yu Muto pretended to suddenly realize something, then picked up a French fry, dipped it in some ketchup, and handed it to Utaha Kasumigaoka.

The girl opened her mouth cooperatively and ate the French fries that Muto Yu fed her. She suddenly felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in her heart.

"anything else?"

"want!"

Before she knew it, the whole serving of French fries had gone into Kasumigaoka Utaha's stomach. Although Yuu Muto didn't get to eat a single one, he was still in a good mood.

Not to mention the girl who was being fed, she looked at the boy with sparkling eyes, and her tenderness was almost overflowing.

Chapter 240: There is a problem with the server?

After lunch, the two of them went to see a recently released romance movie in the afternoon. How should I put it, in Muto Yu's opinion, it was a bit too melodramatic.

The male protagonist has cancer, and he wants to treat the female protagonist badly so that she will break up with him and forget him. He finally succeeds, and the female protagonist is completely disappointed in him. However, on the afternoon of the breakup, she receives a call from her best friend saying that the male protagonist has fainted and is in the hospital.

When the truth came to light, the heroine's original disappointment and hatred turned into love, and she decided to stay with the hero forever. There was no other way, and in the end the hero could not resist his lover, and the two got a marriage certificate.

Then there is no need to say much about the greatness of love. The male protagonist who was in the late stage of cancer gradually recovered his health, and the cancer cells became fewer and fewer, which was called a miracle by the doctor.

If it had ended here, this story would not have been bad. At least there would not have been the clichéd misdiagnosis. Although this miracle was a little too unbelievable, it was precisely because of its unbelievability that it could be called a miracle.

But then it started to get more and more ridiculous: car accident, amnesia, memory recovery, car accident, vegetative state, regaining consciousness...

"Yuu...how are you feeling?"

“This movie is really hard to describe.”

Hearing Kasumigaoka Utaha's question, Muto Yu's expression became extremely subtle. He really wanted a pair of eyes that had never seen this movie.

"Eh? I think it's okay. Even though it's a bit cliché, it's still praising the great power of love."

"Uh...as long as you like it."

Muto Yu sighed and didn't intend to argue with Kasumigaoka Utaha about whether the movie was good or bad. After all, there are certain differences in the preferences of boys and girls.

Just like the difference between male and female channels, the male channel boss is constantly refreshed, while the female channel has only one boss from beginning to end.

There was a meme in the previous life that even after traveling through time, Muto Yu still remembered clearly. It was written by a female author, and the first sentence was "Having a large army is useless, you also need power", which is... quite incomprehensible.

"Time flies by so fast. It feels like I haven't done anything today and the whole day has already passed."

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't notice that Muto Yu was daydreaming, and sighed reluctantly. Every time she was with him, she felt that time passed very quickly.

This is probably why happy times are always short-lived.

"So, was today's field trip helpful to you? If not, it's no problem to come again tomorrow."

Hearing what Yu Muto said, Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart was moved, but after hesitating for a moment, she shook her head slightly.

"No need. I already have some ideas for the subsequent dialogues in Clannad. Next time I run out of ideas, I'll ask you for help. You must not refuse me then."
