Game Development: Starting with Recreating the Anime Game Style

Chapter 625 Specifications
The past few days have been an absolute carnival for gamers all over the world.

For domestic players and industry professionals, the feeling is even more complicated, mainly because the good news coming from the front lines is just too exaggerated.

Surprise, elation, and a sense of pride all coalesced into an almost unreal feeling.

Huang Wenfeng himself was a participant in the experience.

During the E3 pre-show press conference, he stayed up all night watching the entire StarCraft pre-show press conference live.

Then came a bunch of awesome comments, like "Holy crap!" After that, he did almost nothing but search for foreigners' reactions to the pre-show press conference for StarCraft.

It's amazing how intensely they watched it.

Even into the night, new videos continued to be pushed out by SliceMAN.

Putting everything else aside, the sheer efficiency of this slicing process demonstrates that the press conference indeed caused a huge sensation globally. Of course, another reason for the large number of slices is that StarCraft's influence extends beyond Europe and America.

Before E3, StarCraft already had a solid fan base in Japan and South Korea.

Therefore, at the time of the StarCraft press conference, in addition to domestic fans and players waiting, many Japanese bloggers also started live streaming early on and stayed up all night to watch.

Following the pre-exhibition press conference, Starry Sky continued to pull off one amazing stunt after another.

For gaming bloggers, these past few days have been like Chinese New Year. They don't even need to think about what content to create each day; there's so much content that they don't even know where to start.
He didn't know how the online gaming scene was in other countries.

In China, they're basically all either StarCraft games or StarCraft Alliance games.

Especially the Star Alliance...
By the second day of E3, many media outlets had realized that hyping up "Black Myth" and "Star Core" was losing its appeal, so they began to "delegate their attention" to other genres.

What about *Chinese Paladin 7*, *Bloodstained: The Legend of Sword and Fairy*, *The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2*, and *Pascal's Wager*?

Anyway, if you look for it, you can find videos of these PVs being viewed overseas. For example, many foreigners have commented on the unique exotic atmosphere of "Sword and Fairy 7".

A couple of days ago, someone even released a clip of Genshin Impact that miHoYo had "accidentally leaked" before it was even released, exclaiming that the Star Alliance still had a big surprise in store.

This "accidentally leaked" animation even briefly climbed into the top 10 most-viewed videos on Bilibili.
Anyway, these past few days, bloggers on social media and game media outlets have been incredibly busy, eager to let the whole world know that Chinese games made an appearance at E3 this year.
All the participants were quite excited.

Huang Wenfeng, like many bloggers, believed that the impact of this incident had reached its limit, but the current situation tells him that he still underestimated the impact of this incident.

The official response was more direct and impactful than the online frenzy.

"Mr. Huang?"

A voice interrupted Huang Wenfeng's thoughts. He turned around and saw a young staff member sent by Xingchen to pick him up. He was wearing a name tag around his neck.

"Ah, hello, hello."

Huang Wenfeng snapped out of his daze and shook hands with the other person.

The young man followed his gaze to the crowded exit, a bitter smile mixed with pride and helplessness appearing on his face.

"This is quite a big event; we didn't expect so many people. Shall we go to the parking lot first?"

"No rush, no rush." ​​Huang Wenfeng waved his hand, his phone camera already raised, his eyes still fixed on the scene. "I want to watch a little longer; I've never seen anything like this in my life."

Huang Wenfeng's statement is indeed the truth. There was a time when games were universally condemned in mainstream public opinion, and game industry professionals were embarrassed to even say what they did for a living.

When he first became a content creator, when relatives and friends asked him, he only dared to vaguely say that he was "in the internet industry".

How many years has it been?

A game company that can attract state media and be personally welcomed by leaders.

This feeling is so wonderful.

~~~
In fact, not only Huang Wenfeng, an "outsider," but even the members of the "E3 delegation" who had just walked out of the passage were bewildered.

They did receive a notification saying there would be a celebration banquet after they returned home, and that they needed to dress formally.

Everyone was prepared, after all, the commotion at E3 was quite significant, and domestic media would definitely report on it, so holding a welcome banquet was perfectly reasonable.

But the current situation is clearly beyond what is "reasonable".

The flashing lights that filled the room with white light, the microphones of the official media outlets, and the straight red banner.

All of this combined creates an incredibly unreal impact.

Originally, walking at the front of the crowd were Guo Fan, the director of "The Wandering Earth," and Feng Yi, the founder of Game Science.

These two, one with a movie trailer that went viral overseas and the other with a game demo that was raved by players worldwide, can be said to be the two people who gained the most from this E3 trip besides Chu Chen.

In particular, Guo Fan's approach of creating two trailers for the game and movie "The Wandering Earth" has sparked considerable controversy, such as whether the movie trailers are fraudulent.

For domestic science fiction films today, the problem isn't controversy, but rather a lack of attention.
After all, even if there is controversy, it will still leave a real impression. If the movie doesn't get good reviews when it's released, that's fine. But if the reviews are great, these impressions will become the best fuel for its success.

So even after a flight of more than ten hours, he couldn't hide his excitement when he got off the plane, and chatted with Feng Yi as he walked.

The two chatted for a long time on the plane and are still talking now.

However, as he approached the arrival gate, Guo Fan subconsciously slowed his pace by half a beat.

Hey guys, what's going on?
Putting aside the long guns and cannons, the key point is that as they walked out, some media outlets started pressing the shutter, and the flashes lit up sporadically, making the scene even more exaggerated.

He subconsciously nudged Feng Yi beside him.

Feng Yi's reaction was even stronger than his. He was not good at dealing with the media to begin with, and seeing this reception lineup that was comparable to a national-level conference, his mind went blank.

They exchanged a glance, and everything was understood without a word.

We can't handle this situation.

So, one went left and the other went right, and the two "heroes" who were originally at the forefront merged into the crowd behind them with perfect coordination, as fast as two drops of water flowing into the ocean.

Their retreat caused chaos among the others, who weren't stupid either. The previously somewhat organized formation instantly fell apart.

The people in front wanted to back up, but the people behind, unaware of the situation, kept pushing forward.
