It didnt take long before many other card ga companies found out about the news.
Chen Mo didnt try to keep it a secret at all. It was difficult to keep it a secret anyways as there was no way from preventing the art company from leaking the news.
Once the news gets out, it wouldnt take long for the entire mobile ga community to hear about it. It wasnt a good news to any mobile card ga designer that Chen Mo was back making mobile gas.
And during Chen Mos hiatus from mobile gas, the other card ga designers were having the ti of their lives.
The best ti of their life even.
At this point, the industry was happy to have everyone make money from mobile card gas as opposed to going at each others neck.
This was opposed to genres like RPG as the playerbase was incredibly limited, and every company was trying to get as much of it as possible.
But it was different for card gas. Since the huge mobile card ga industry was still in its early stages and there wasnt a monopoly, there was a silent agreent that they should all work together in peace.
Because card gas were all so similar and no designer dared to make any big changes, which was why the companies relied on big IPs to get a slice of the player base.
Youll make an ani one, Ill make one based on a novel. They could all work on the sa thing yet have separate playerbases.
It was fine even if they shared the sa target audience as they just had to space out the release dates.
Who wouldnt have the ti of their life when they could make money by doing nothing?
This was almost an unspoken rule. It wasnt that these companies didnt want to monopolise the industry, it was because they couldnt, and a ga that could do that didnt exist.
If they wanted to achieve that, they must ensure that the ga was better than all the other gas on the market and had an IP that covered a huge player base.
Demon Slayers might be the only one that slightly matches the last point. There wasnt a ga that truly covered both points.
But Chen Mos move made everything unclear.
Many video ga designers were discussing this matter privately.
Have you heard that Chen Mo is making a card ga?
What? Is he making a sequel to I Am MT? It cant be, the animation isnt all that popular anymore. Are there that many die hard fans of the series?
No, I heard its a Japanese Shikigami the. I dont know much about it.
What is it, does it have an IP?
No!
Then why is he doing it?
Who knows! Who knows what Chen Mo is planning?
I feel like sothing is about to go down.
Who said it wasnt, Chen Mo had been doing so well in the PC market, but decided to pivot back into the mobile ga industry. Clearly, hes ssing with us!
What should we do?
Watch! What else can we do? Anyways, the ones at the top should be most affected, Emperor Dynasty Entertainnts Demon Slayers 2 will cop most of the blow.
Well see what Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt does.
Qiu Bin forwarded the news of Chen Mo making a card ga to Lin Chaoxu.
It didnt take long for Lin Chaoxu to co to a decision.
Promote Demon Slayers 2 now! Release it as fast as possible!
Lin Chaoxu wasnt as cautious and indecisive as Qiu Bin as he knew what this ant.
This ant that once Chen Mos preparations were done, it could be another hugely popular ga. This was horrible news to Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt!
The early bird gets the worm, release Demon Slayers 2 early and get a bunch of players. Promote the ga everywhere in order to get as many players as possible, and make as much money as they could before Chen Mo releases his ga.
Even when Chen Mos ga was really successful, its impact on Demon Slayers 2 will be greatly reduced.
Once Lin Chaoxu gave the green light, the progress of Demon Slayers imdiately got fast tracked.
Promoting the ga, getting testers, feedback, improving Qiu Bin was working as hard as he could to get Demon Slayers 2 to a state where it could be released.
Emperor Dynasty Entertainnts promotions started appearing everywhere. It was on various streaming sites, gaming sites, forums, ad spots
Various videoga dia were also releasing their articles.
Demon Slayers sequel, Demon Slayers 2 released soon!
Popular web novel turned mobile ga taking the world by storm!
National Phenona, successor of Demon Slayers
Can Demon Slayers 2 reach a new record for mobile gas monthly inco?
First mobile card ga sequel about to be released!
With enough money, the dia was sure to hype it up. Because of how successful Demon Slayers was, it wasnt too over the top to sing the song of praises for its sequel.
The players watching for the side had all sorts of reactions, but they all looked forward to it because of its success and its playerbase.
Everyone in the videoga industry knew that Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt planned to make as much money as possible before Chen Mo releases his new ga to reduce the effects of Chen Mos new ga on them.
Everyone felt bad, only Chen Mo had the power to put Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt in this state!
On Chen Mos side of things, Onmyoji was proceeding as usual.
Shikigamis sketches, models, and scenes were being moved along nicely, the cinematomatics were being worked on, the combat system, numbers and playstyle were all being planned ticulously.
There wasnt a whole lot of work for Onmyoji. In this previous life, Onmyojis starting team only consisted of nine people, including programrs.
Zheng Hongxi and Qian Kun were quite comfortable with this as they were familiar with mobile card gas, and they could direct any questions to Chen Mo.
Su Jinyu had to deal with the difficult parts of the ga. As this was a ga that focused on artwork, her hands were full from controlling the artstyle for the ga to make sure they match.
Chen Mo was also busy as he oversaw all of this. Shikigami sketches, story of the ga, the balancing of the ga he probably couldnt manage without the Super Accelerator.
Chen Mo was already quite tired when he was working on Warcraft as it was more work. But since he had a lot of passion and motivation, Chen Mo didnt feel tired working on a ga that could go down in history.
But Chen Mo felt much more tired working on Onmyoji because he lacked passion as it was fairly similar to I Am MT.
Im going to hire a lot more people after this, I cant keep doing this.
Chen Mo wanted to maintain a small group as the efficiency would go down when the number of people increased. But from the looks of it, he needed to hire more as he couldnt do everything himself.
As he was working, Zheng Hongxi saw an ad about Demon Slayers 2.
Aside from the advertising Demon Slayers 2, they even stepped on I Am MT.
Qian Kun angrily complained to Chen Mo, Do you see what the dia are saying? Demon Slayers is the number one mobile card ga in China? How can they say that?
Zheng Hongxi agreed, Yeah, isnt that just a ga that copied I Am MT? Seems that you can do anything with enough promotion!
Right? Theres nothing good to co from following managers footsteps! added Su Jinyu.
Chen Mo was speechless, What do the players think on I Am MTs forum?
What can they think? said Qian Kun, Anyone staying in I Am MT are all diehard fans. They arent changing their minds. There are many more Demon Slayers fans anyways.
Dont worry, let them be, said Chen Mo, Onmyoji is going alone pretty well anyways, just work on the things you need to work on. Well release the ga one and a half months after their release, they can bask in the sun while they still can.
Qian Kun was hesitant, But manager, Emperor Dynasty Gaming Platform has so many players, are you sure we wont suffer by giving them a head start?
Chen Mo laughed, Why are you worried? You guys know how good the ga is. Put it this way, no matter Demon Slayers 2 or any other card ga, they will eventually be consud by Onmyoji. We wont suffer from anything.
