“These guys have no self respect!” complained Su Jinyu.
Wen Lingwei nodded, “Yeah! Manager, bring out your VR ga too!”
“I don’t have one!”
Everyone let out a collective sigh, it seed that they ran out of fire power. Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt prepared an unreleased VR ga for testing but Chen Mo hadn’t. He hadn’t even made a large PC RPG ga.
Just as when everyone thought Chen Mo was out of ideas.
Chen Mo was on a laptop for a few monts, putting up a QR code on a nearby display.
Chen Mo grabbed the gaphone from Qian Kun’s hands, “Ladies and gentlen, co take a look. I have a new mobile ga! It’s alright if you don’t want to queue, we at Thunderbolt Entertainnt will help you! Just scan the QR code to download now. It’s only 120MB, you don’t lose anything if it’s just 120MB. It’s a casual puzzle ga, free download!”
Everyone collectively facepald, “My goodness, now manager is an inforcial salesperson now? Shaless! We don’t know him...”
But it actually worked, Chen Mo’s voice actually managed to gather the attention of a few players.
Sure Emperor Dynasty Entertainnt’s VR ga was really attractive, but now many VR gaming pods did they have? Most of the people were queueing in line with not much to do.
And when they heard Chen Mo’s calls, they noticed a huge QR code on the screen.
“Chen Mo has a new ga too? Casual puzzle ga?”
“Could probably use it to pass ti.”
“What fun does casual puzzle gas have?”
“It’s Chen Mo’s casual puzzle ga, did you forget Plants vs Zombies?”
“Yeah that’s made by Chen Mo, how could you not play? I personally would play anything with “Made by Chen Mo’ on it.”
“Sure, why not. I’ve got nothing to do anyways.”
Many of the players either in line or just staring at cosplays pulled out their phones to download Chen Mo’s new ga.
Su Jinyu and the others were shocked.
“Manager, you secretly make a new ga?” Wen Lingwei exclaid.
Chen Mo was speechless, “What do you an secretly, do I need to consult you when I make a new ga?”
Wen Lingwei laughed, “Of course not. Alright, I’ll download it and check it out.”
Upon scanning the QR code, they were t with a file called Anipop
“What is this, a tile matching ga?
“Match three?”
Discussion among the players started.
“What is it, is it a match three ga? It’d get stale after five minutes!”
“Yeah, these gas are so low IQ. It just depends how well you can see the moves.”
“What do you an ‘see the moves’, it’s a testant of luck. If you are lucky, you’d beat the level within the ti limit, otherwise you have no chance of finding any matches.”
“I thought Chen Mo would make a ga like Plants vs Zombies, I feel scamd!”
“Whatever, let’s just download it and see.”
Su Jinyu was also confused, “Manager, why did you make a match three ga? Sure There are many players, but it’s kind of pointless. It’s only there to kill ti, you’d get bored of it pretty soon.”
“You try and see, it’s different from the other match three gas,” said Chen Mo.
Everybody started the ga filled with scepticism.
Chen Mo did so research before making the ga. The match three gas in this world were quite primitive, most of the challenge was finding matches within a ti limit.
These types of gas were tiring to play in the later stages of the ga, tiring for the hands, tiring for the eyes, and even more tiring for the sounds.
Which was why these people were disappointed to see a match three ga.
There wasn’t anything special with the main screen. It featured a few animals and a vine that led upwards, not much different than other casual gas.
There was a simple cutscene to lay the grounds for the story, which only had a few pieces of artwork. A huge seed fell to the ground and grew into a giant vine in an instant, pushing the mayor’s house to the sky.
The scene ended with the animals deciding on saving the mayor
The levels started from the bottom of the vine. Green fruits appeared from the bottom up, and a finger hinted the player to tap on the first fruit.
There wasn’t anything special with the first few levels as the players were hinted that they needed to line up animals to clear them, and you progress after clearing a certain amount of lines.
The first level was pretty state, but in the second level, the ga hinted that players could achieve better results if they lined up four or five different animals.
“Huh? Special clearing effects if I line up four? There are so many ways to clear four, nice!”
“Yeah, the bomb clears out such a large area, it feels so satisfying.”
“And the area is even larger when you have two different animals together.”
“I also noticed that there isn’t a ti limit, only move limits!”
“Yeah, it’s not like other matching gas where you frantically search for matches. You have ti to think about your moves in this ga.”
“It feels so easy, can we cruise through this ga?”
“It’s not bad for killing ti.”
“The sound effects are great. The ‘unbelievable’ and ‘excellent’ after each clear feels so good.”
“Not bad, Chen Mo even manages to add a flare to matching gas? But I’m confused, there are so many ways to clear tiles, and there’s only a limit on the number of moves. How are they managing the level difficulties? I haven’t encountered any challenges, I’ve been clearing these levels with three stars every ti.”
It didn’t take long for the players to realise it wasn’t your ordinary matching ga, before being sucked into the ga.
As the levels got harder and harder, they realised it wasn’t as simple as they thought, and they might even fail a level here and there.
However, the ramping up in difficulty was done really well. After the occasional fail, they’d most likely pass it the next try. As the difficulty increases, players unlock new chanics. The designs of the levels were also changing just the right amount so every level feels fresh.
“Geez, this ga is actually quite fun, it’s great to kill ti.”
“Yeah, the best part is the unlimited amount of thinking ti. This is what I’d call a casual puzzle ga. Unlike the other matching gas that entirely depend on your eyes.”
“The difficulties of the levels are quite reasonable too. The graphics are also quite nice, it’s definitely worth a play.”
“Really? I’ll download it too.”
Soon, the first batch of Anipop players had nothing but praise for this ga, even players who didn’t want to play started downloading the ga.
