Chapter 6 Is the perfect score really 100?
Fixing bugs is impossible.
Chen Ba, who was already so poor that he was almost out of pocket, was counting on selling more copies of the game to make some money.
Qian Duoduo's video became popular on the entire site and attracted a lot of attention. It can be said that players were all attracted by this "outrageous bug".
If he fixes the bug, who will make up for the lack of sales?
not to mention……
"Mr. Nao, you are so rude!"
Chen Ba was almost anxious to death. He kept calling his [Most Hardcore Game Producer System] in his mind, hoping to get a response from it.
Isn't it said that the degree of completion is extremely high, and it also got a high score of 91? How could such an outrageous bug appear?
[Han Chuang Kudu Simulator] Although the planning of this game was Chen Ba’s own idea, he made great use of the system’s auxiliary functions in the process of making the game.
This includes "play testing"!
That's right...
The auxiliary functions of the system include game testing. Chen Ba does not have to worry about testing at all. He first uses the system to generate the core code, and then throws the code to the system to run the test. If there is no problem in the evaluation, it will be released directly.
Now that there is a serious bug in the game, Chen Ba is the most confused person.
What's going on with the system?
Such a fantastic plug-in can't find this kind of bug? Could it be that he awakened to a pirated system?
Unfortunately, the system was unresponsive.
Despite Chen Ba's various attempts, he still didn't get a reply. Unwilling to give up, he closed his eyes and began to study the main page of the system in his mind.
The main system page is very simple.
In addition to the basic information about Chen Ba, the host, only [New Game], [Load Game], and [More Functions] can be clicked to open the secondary page.
【Planning: 87】
【Program: 84】

[… Comprehensive score: 91]
After opening the menu bar of the Hanchuang Kudu simulator and glancing at the basic information, Chen Ba vaguely discovered the problem.
When he saw this evaluation score, he thought that 100 points was a perfect score. After all, the 100-point system was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it was normal for him to think so.
But now he suddenly felt that he seemed to have overlooked a very important thing: 91 points is indeed very high, but is the full score really 100 points?
If it is not 100 points, but 1000 points or other scores, then it is normal for this game to have vicious bugs. After all, there must be a big problem with such a low score.
"never mind……"
After sighing silently, Chen Ba decided not to think about the full score for the time being.
If there are bugs, there will be bugs. How can there be a perfect game in the world without a single bug?
Bugs also score situations.
If it is a bug with extremely serious impact, then we must come up with a repair plan in time and provide comfort instructions to the players.
But in the case of [Hanchuang Kudu Simulator], as long as he insists that this is a game mechanism, it is not considered a bug, and there is no need to rack your brains to fix it.
However, you can refuse to admit the bug, but Chen Ba will still update the content that should be updated in the game.
Such as the achievement system!
When making [Hanchuang Hard Study Simulator], Chen Ba didn’t add too many achievements into it because he had too many things to do and couldn’t take care of it.
Now that the game is released and is considered a finished product, it is natural to improve the achievement system to satisfy players' collection and achievement addiction.
The update package just pushed contains 132 subdivided achievement directories.
…
The playback volume of Qian Duoduo’s latest video is still growing.
New viewers continue to see this video, and then they are interested in [Hanchuang Kudu Simulator] and purchase it.
This directly led to a sudden increase in sales of [Hanchuang Kudu Simulator], which originally had poor sales and had few reviews. As of the third day after the video was released, the sales volume successfully exceeded 10,000, and it was listed on the steam platform's national best-selling rankings.
"One hundred million..."
After counting carefully, Chen Ba finally determined that the Hanchuang Kudu simulator was really popular.
In just three days, sales exceeded 10,000, even approaching 30,000 copies, and there were thousands of reviews.
"Report, I know this question!"
Wang Kun, who came to Chen Ba after get off work to celebrate, raised his hand and said: "18 times 27401 equals... equals forty..."
"That's a good calculation, don't forget it next time!"
Chen Ba rolled his eyes and said, "Try not to reveal your academic qualifications when you go out, otherwise people will think that college students are only at this level."
"No need to forget it, the results are here, see for yourself!"
Clicking on the settlement page with the mouse, Wang Kun quickly saw the string of numbers he had been thinking about: 493218, in yuan.
"Damn it, it's only half a million?"
Wang Kun drooled with envy: "You got at least 300,000, right? You are suddenly rich! Coach, I want to learn this too!"
"It's not that much. The platform takes 30%, and after tax is deducted, it's almost 270,000." Chen Ba shook his head.
"That's quite a lot..."
"By the way, didn't you say yesterday that sales couldn't increase? Why did they start to increase sharply again today?" Wang Kun asked curiously.
"The Steam platform has given me a recommendation position, and it has also been listed on the platform's best-selling list. As the game's exposure increases, sales will naturally increase."
When he said this, Chen Ba's tone was a little emotional.
All beginnings are hard!
In the days after the game was released, where were the recommendations and exposure opportunities? It was after Qian Duoduo helped attract traffic and established a good sales base that the platform began to actively promote it.
It can be said that Qian Duoduo is definitely Chen Ba's noble man. If he hadn't helped push it, how could Hanchuang Kudu Simulator have the hot sales today?
"This is the end of all your hardships. After all, the game has sold tens of thousands of copies. When are you going to treat me to a big dinner?"
"Now you can!"
Chen Ba waved his hand and said proudly: "Old rules, downstairs at the Shaxian Hotel, you can order whatever you want."
I knew it was so.
Wang Kun rolled his eyes wildly and was not surprised by this reply: "Let's go get some skewers! I have a day off tomorrow and can have two drinks with you."
"That's okay, let's go..."
As soon as they left, the two quickly left the rental house and went straight to the nearest night market after going downstairs.
While walking, Chen Ba asked Wang Kun about his future plans.
"What plans can I have? Just dawdle! It's only a day if I can dawdle. My parents don't have high expectations of me anyway. I just need enough salary to support myself."
When he said this, Wang Kun's expression was very calm, as if he really thought so.
He is one year younger than Chen Ba.
Because of his parents' arrangements, after graduating from college, he found a job in a state-owned enterprise with good pay through connections. The job was relatively leisurely, and he was considered an iron rice bowl that ordinary people would envy.
"And you?"
"Do you want to continue playing games?"
When they were in college, the brothers made an appointment to work together in the gaming industry to benefit gamers. However, after graduation, only Chen Ba fulfilled his promise.
Wang Kun wants to know whether Brother Ba, whose career has begun to take off, will suddenly change careers?
"Of course I'll keep playing the game!"
"When the money comes, I may open a game studio and recruit some people to work together." Chen Ba seemed to have thought of something, and turned to Wang Kun and asked, "How about you come and work with me?"
"I'll forget it..."
Although Wang Kun was very moved, he also knew himself. If he dared to quit his current job and join Brother Ba, his parents would dare to sever ties with him on the spot.
This is definitely unrealistic.
Unless one day, Chen Ba's career is booming, his studio is upgraded to a game company, and his games are popular all over the Internet, then he can possibly convince his parents.
but……
Although Wang Kun couldn't go there himself, he recommended a suitable candidate to Chen Ba.
"If you want to start a studio, you can contact him. This senior is also looking for a job. He has very good skills and used to work in a pig factory."
Wang Kun gave a phone number.
After Chen Ba saved the number in his mobile phone, he didn't take it too seriously. After all, for an ordinary programmer like this, it would be the same for anyone.
What's more, his so-called studio hasn't been officially established yet! He didn't even think about the specific name of the studio...
