Reborn to Make Games: My Girlfriend is a Game Streamer

Jiang Yiting moved her stiff fingers, took a deep breath, and gripped the mouse tightly again.

The muscle memory formed through repeated "torture" in the first stage seems to suddenly awaken at this moment.

Upon entering the second level, the "Furniture Zone," her gameplay became noticeably smoother.

The jar-shaped figure displayed an incredible sense of composure as it climbed and jumped.

"How's it going? Feeling the rhythm? Isn't the gameplay much smoother?" She said with a hint of pride, trying to garner some affirmation from the comments.

-Really? I feel like I've lost my memory. Who was stuck just now?

- I don't think it's easy to say, but it feels like the design here is too simplistic.

-Look again, this producer doesn't seem to be that kind-hearted.

Sure enough, before she could finish speaking, she made a mistake in a maze of furniture shaped like the Chinese character "回" and got stuck in a small loop. It took her several attempts to get out.

-See, you can't make promises you can't keep.

-See, see, I told you he wasn't that kind-hearted.

This map is disgusting.

Here it comes again, the roadblock may be late but it's here.

However, having learned from her previous experience, Jiang Yiting was much more composed this time.

She pursed her lips, without complaining, and focused more intently on observing the terrain and adjusting her strength.

After several attempts, he successfully broke through.

-? ? ?

-We're strangers now, Brother Lou.

-Have they changed the person?

"Hmph, this is my true level, see?" She couldn't help but feel a little smug after passing the test smoothly.

However, it was this moment of relaxation that foreshadowed the disaster that followed.

The jar-man arrived at the conspicuous orange giant rock and stood on the tabletop at the top.

Next was a seemingly simple pole vault. Jiang Yiting seized the opportunity and flicked the mouse—

The jar-shaped man leaped up and hammered down at the intended fulcrum!

But the moment the hammer touched the surface, that strange physics engine kicked in again!

The mouse cursor shifted slightly.

Instead of the expected solid support, a huge and irrational counterforce came from within!

"Bang!"

The sound effects were amplified to the extreme.

In the reflection of Jiang Yiting's suddenly contracting pupils, the jar-like figure, like a stone kicked away, traced a beautiful yet desperate parabola as it plummeted into the bottomless abyss.

At that moment, time seemed to stretch out.

Jiang Yiting's smug smile froze instantly before it could disappear.

"Huh?! Wait...no, that's not right!"

She screamed almost instinctively, leaning forward and frantically shaking the mouse in vain, trying to get the character to make even the slightest attempt to salvage the situation in mid-air.

But all is in vain.

Under the watchful eyes of all the viewers in the live stream, the jar-man precisely... crashed back onto the flat ground where the game started.

A lighthearted melody begins, followed by a male voiceover filled with "malice":

"Oh dear, you've regressed a lot. That's a real setback, a heavy blow."

The live stream fell into a brief silence, then the chat exploded with comments:

-Hey Lou, what were you doing just now?

-This is interesting, this map is quite interesting.

- A true story of humans taming the mouse.

-Hey streamer, I was out for a bit and just got back. Why are you still at the starting point? /laughs

- I'm so upset, it makes my blood pressure rise just looking at it.

- Haha, the streamer's hands are shaking!

-Give up, Lou Ge, this game is not for humans!

-One-click recall to town! That's top-notch entertainment value!

At this moment, the number of comments in the comment section reached its peak for the night, even surpassing the excitement of the giveaway.

-----------------

Chen Bainian watched Jiang Yiting's stunned figure on the screen and subconsciously clenched his fist.

He could imagine the frustration of investing so much time and effort only to fail at the last hurdle.

He took a deep breath, then slowly relaxed, and gave a self-deprecating laugh.

He leaned back in his chair, raised his hand to rub his temples, and a faint, self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.

It was just a collaborative live stream; as long as the expected results were achieved, that was fine. My emotions seemed to fluctuate too much with the progress of the game.

He glanced at the "Stress Optimization" section of the "HP System Optimization Plan" on the whiteboard.

I thought to myself, I'm afraid I'll have to lose some points on my emotional management tonight.

-----------------

After a two-second silence, Jiang Yiting seemed to recover from the huge shock.

A cry of despair, a mixture of disbelief and utter despair, escaped her lips: "Oh my god... this game actually has official taunts?! How despicable!"

The comments section also started to criticize her:

-Official taunts are the most lethal. @ChangshouGamesStudio, come out and take your beating!

-Was that official sarcastic voice added by the producer himself? It's so despicable.

Just then, a comment appeared on the screen from the ID of "Longevity Games Studio": "Let's do a giveaway to relax."

Two more rockets followed.

"Wow? You dare to show your face at a time like this?" Jiang Yiting instantly found an outlet for her emotions and angrily rebuked the camera, "You wait, I'll settle the score with you offline later."

-Huh? The streamer knows the game's producer?

-I've wanted to say this for a while now; I had a feeling they knew each other before.

After observing the comments all night, someone finally spotted the blind spot.

"I do know him, otherwise I wouldn't have been tricked into playing this treacherous game," Jiang Yiting replied through gritted teeth.

At this point, she was no longer the cool and relaxed person she was when the show first started.

- Haha, is this what the friendship between good friends is like?

- Friends are those who trick each other!

"Who's his friend? We're not close!"

Jiang Yiting denied it as a conditioned reflex.

After all, the two had only known each other for a day and a half at most.

Tonight's event was just a very basic business collaboration.

To put it bluntly, their relationship is at most that of neighbors and business partners.

friend?

Who would be friends with someone who designed a game that lets you "go back to your hometown with one click"?

However, the viewers in the live stream didn't think so.

- It's over, we can't even be friends anymore.

- It's over, the little boat of friendship sank faster than the jar man.

Producer Chen, danger!

Seeing the increasingly skewed comments, Jiang Yiting took a deep breath, forcing herself to detach from the huge emotional fluctuations and regain her rhythm as a professional streamer.

"Alright, alright, let's write down his bill for now. Let's have a raffle to ease things off, then we'll continue!"

I'm not done with this guy in the jar today!

After experiencing the emotional highs and lows of tonight, if it weren't for seeing the data in the background...

Jiang Yiting was starting to doubt whether it was right for her to agree to Chen Bainian's request to play this game live on stream.

When she got back on the road, her driving was noticeably more cautious and composed.

However, the style of the comments section began to change again...

-It's so skillful it's heartbreaking...

-I am indeed skilled, but as for why I am so skilled, I can't really say. /Laughs while covering mouth

-This game map has already shown a path that leads directly home once, will it appear again later?

- It's hard to say, but I think there's a high probability that it still will happen.

After another minor setback, the background voice rang out again: "The failure we often talk about isn't falling down, it's giving up."

"Oh, you've brought me chicken soup again?"

She can laugh and joke about minor mistakes and falls.

- Lou Ge was too nervous before and didn't even notice that there are quite a lot of voice acting like this in the game.

-Yeah, Lou didn't analyze the game like he usually does tonight.

I can't say why.

"Really?" Jiang Yiting herself reflected on it for a moment.

"This is probably what is called the flow state, being completely immersed in it."

This shows that the game design is indeed effective, allowing players to focus so much that they forget everything around them.

"Once we've cleared the game, I'll ask Producer Chen for a map so you guys can analyze it properly."

She finally had the time to provide the audience with some professional game design insights, just like she always does.

Until the Jar Man once again, tremblingly, stood atop the orange hill that had brought her "Waterloo"...

"Ahem." She cleared her throat, her voice a little weak, "Um... let's be careful here, let's save this first..."

I'm scared!

-The oppressive feeling emanating from the orange giant rock!

"Scared? Of course not!" she immediately retorted, her tone sharp but her words betraying her underlying fear. "This is called strategic prudence! Don't you understand insurance?!"

As she spoke, she skillfully pressed the ESC key, opened the game settings menu, and carefully searched from top to bottom...

Once, no.

I tried twice, but still nothing.

The expression on her face went from confusion to disbelief, and finally froze completely.

She looked up, her gaze seemingly piercing through the screen, fixed directly on the game producer next to her.

He posed a soul-searching question, enunciating each word carefully:

"Producer Chen! Where are your save settings?!"
