Chapter 39: One Rider and Juechen


    ??Gu Fan secretly glanced at Lilith next to him.


    At this time, she was not furious, but blinked in confusion.


    "What are they talking about?" Lilith''s face was full of confusion. It was obvious that so far, as far as she knew, she didn''t know anything.


    ??Gu Fan also had a black question mark on his face, and then followed Little Bear and spread his hands, performing a set of silky small combos.


    “I don’t know! Aren’t you the designer of this game? You ask me?”


    ?At this time, Gu Fan''s acting skills exploded, and he felt a little sorry for himself if he didn''t win the Best Actor Award at the Oscars.


    “Wait a moment, I’ll take a look.”


    ?Lilith frowned, with a look of confusion on her face, as if she was trying to review what the judges had just said in her mind.


    “So, the root of all this is that this small square can be stuffed into the gap when it is rotating?


    “But other games aren’t like this?


    “Gu Fan! How can you explain this!”


    ?Lilith seemed to suddenly understand something. She jumped up from the massage chair angrily and asked Gu Fan angrily.


    ??Gu Fan quickly raised his hands: "It''s unfair! The functions I wrote are all based on your design!"


    Lilith was speechless: "It''s the same sentence every time! Do you think I still believe it? When did I write the rotation of the blocks in the design draft and stuff it into the gap? Find out!


    “If you can find it, I’ll take your last name!”


    ?She stared at Gu Fan with her hands on her hips, with an expression like "I want to see how you can quibble."


    ?Gu Fan sighed silently and found the design plan Lilith had originally written.


    "Look, it''s written here that you want the falling of the blocks to show a free-falling state. On the one hand, it is to better fit the realistic style of the game and make the falling of the blocks more realistic; on the other hand, it is to use this kind of The feeling of gradual acceleration leaves players scrambling and creates more negative emotions.


    “And after the block lands, there will be a slight vibration effect. This also needs to be achieved by physical collision, right?”


    Lilith blinked in confusion: "Yes, I designed this, but does it have anything to do with this BUG?"


    ??Gu Fan sighed: "Of course it does matter!


    “Do you think a game from more than 40 years ago can achieve this kind of effect? ??Does its underlying logic and code support it?


    “Even if I can make changes to the original game template, there are so many things that need to be changed, I might as well rewrite it!


    “So, I simply started from scratch and rewritten all the underlying physical rules.


    “I added gravity parameters to these blocks, and also added physical effects of falling and collision, which perfectly realized the two functions you mentioned of “gradual acceleration of free fall” and “vibration on landing”.”


    Lilith was still sullen: "So you are great, do you want me to praise you? But the question remains, what does this have to do with BUG!"


    ??Gu Fan shook his head slightly helplessly: "Just listen to what I have to say.


    "In the process of making this function, in order to give these blocks a gravity effect, I must arrange a center point for them to receive force, right? That is the center of gravity. So of course, I will arrange this center of gravity at the center of these blocks On top of that little square.


    “Including the rotation of these blocks, they are also performed around the center of gravity.


    “Other small blocks have no collision volume. When rotating, it will only verify whether there is enough space after rotation...


    “And that’s it.”


    Lilith''s eyes widened slightly and she said in shock: "Ah? So why don''t you make collisions for other small squares?"


    ??Gu Fan was helpless: "Your design draft didn''t require that other small squares also be collided!


    “I have perfectly implemented the functions you need, why should I add other functions on my own?”


    Lilith was a little anxious: "But didn''t I write it at the end of this design? Parentheses! If it''s troublesome, don''t do it! Bracket it!


    “If you just used the ready-made game template, you wouldn’t have these problems!”


    ??Gu Fan said seriously: "I am a programmer, and I will definitely try to meet your needs as much as possible!


    “Besides, it’s really not difficult to implement only the gravity effect, so I did it!


    “But adding collision volumes to all blocks is very troublesome, and it doesn’t affect the implementation of these functions. You didn’t say you must do it, so I didn’t do it.”


    ?Lilith looked at Gu Fan blankly.


    ?Gu Fan looked at Lilith with an innocent face.


    At the end, he added in a low voice: "Tell me, which piece of code did I write not in accordance with your request..." Lilith wilted again. She returned to the massage chair angrily, holding her forehead in thought.


    “Wait a minute, I’ll give it a try…”


    She quickly ran through the words of these judges in her mind, and then she was shocked to find that it seemed that Gu Fan was not to blame for this matter...


    Those designs made by Lilith, including "Angels Descend", "Online Mode", "Reduce the Chance of Bars Appearing", etc., can indeed have the effect of tormenting players.


    In the final analysis, it is because of the emergence of "Rotation Elimination" that these gameplay methods have become more exciting!


    But "Rotation Elimination" was written by Gu Fan in order to realize the "gravity and collision" requirements in his design draft. The root cause is still a problem with the design draft...


    What if Gu Fan had planned all this in advance? That doesn''t make sense. How could he predict what was written in his design draft?


    All in all, this seems to be a tragedy caused by pure coincidence.


    ??If you have to say that someone is causing trouble behind your back...


    ?That can only be powerful angels. How could an ordinary human be able to do this?


    From all aspects, Gu Fan is a dedicated worker, and every function is indeed made strictly according to the design plan.


    ?Although there are often deviations and some mistakes, these mistakes are all excusable.


    ?Thinking of this, Lilith scratched her hair angrily.


    “Damn it!


    “Okay, I won’t argue with you about this! I’m going back to continue preparing the design plan for the next game!


    “Hurry up and recruit everyone, and we will start developing a new game in two days!”


    After Lilith finished speaking, she disappeared angrily.


    …


    …


    The next night.


    According to the original arrangement, today is the award ceremony of the mini game design competition.


    However, it inexplicably turned into a promotion conference for "Heaven Cube".


    ? There is no way, the gap in strength between the award-winning works this time is too big. All other works put together are not even as good as "Heaven Cube"!


    ?In the eyes of the judges, "Heaven Cube" can almost be said to be a miracle in game design. They never thought that such a design could appear in a small game design competition.


    In the player voting, "Heaven Cube" also took the lead!


    ?Of course, "Rotation Elimination" is a very advanced skill. It requires players to create special-shaped vacancies. This is much more difficult than the simple and crude "Equal Length Strips" and cannot be mastered overnight.


    But even if players have not mastered this skill, they can still feel the huge changes this game has made compared to the original version through the judges'' comments and Jonas''s explanation.


    It can only be said that in this kind of competition, the judges’ praise adds too much to a game’s traffic.


    For a time, domestic old players of various "Rotating Blocks" downloaded "Reverse Heaven Blocks" one after another, wanting to learn the latest technique of "rotating elimination".


    ?Although the progress was slow, they all enjoyed it and had a great time in the battle mode.


    As for negative emotions…


    What negative emotions?


    ?Gu Fan could see clearly that the negative emotions generated by "Heaven Cube" were decreasing sharply, even gradually approaching zero, and finally reached a strange balance.


    It cannot be said that it is completely absent, it can only be said that it is better than nothing.


    Obviously, after the vast majority of players have accepted the mechanics of this game, they will no longer be annoyed by the few functions designed by Lilith. Coupled with the joy brought by the success of "Rotation Elimination", this The game has been completely abandoned by Lilith.


    ? ?The final results of the awards were announced. It can be said that "Heaven Block" almost won the special prize of this mini game design competition without any suspense.


    The grand prize is 300,000 yuan, which is insignificant in itself, but the important thing is that the official provides exclusive recommendation slots and allows "Heaven Cube" to be sold at a price of 18 yuan!


    The pricing of these mini-games is officially determined. The better the quality, the higher the price.


    ?Those games that the judges do not recommend can only be sold for 1 yuan or are directly free.


    Even though the price of "Heaven Cube" is as high as 18 yuan, its sales volume still ranks first among the entries!
