The day of the New Year for ordinary people is the Spring Festival, while the new year day for game developers is the release number. The game version number, which has been suspended for 263 days, has finally been opened again!
On April 11, the State Press and Publication Administration released the first batch of game versions in 2022, this approval passed 45 games including Xishanju, Heartbeat and Baidu and other companies in one go, once the version number was announced, a group of developers who waited for the rice pot could not sit still, and have launched various actions, let Xiaobian take everyone to see it.
I. "Party Star"
"Party Star" is a casual fighting mobile game similar to "Nintendo Star Smash Bros. Brawl" produced by heartbeat network, players need to help teammates defeat enemies a certain number of times in a limited size scene, and finally win.
From the action, art style and special effects, we can easily see a lot of the shadow of "Nintendo Star Brawl" from this game, but the world article is a big copy, as long as the game learns the essence of the original game, players will buy it.
Before the domestic version of "Party Star" was released, the game had already under the name of "Flash Party" in the world. After the game was officially launched overseas on February 17, it topped the Japanese iOS free game list for 12 consecutive days, and the current iOS side has received a high score of 4.8 points.
After getting the news of the version number, Heartbeat CEO Huang Yimeng said on social media that he was "overjoyed and crying", and at present, "Heart of the Party" temporarily maintained and expanded the server on April 11, preparing for the public beta of national uniforms.
II. "Sword Net 3 Origins"
As the old IP of Xishanju, "Sword Man Love" not only helped Xishanju and Kingsoft to survive the most difficult time, but also the online game represented by "Sword Net III" made Xishanju firmly establish itself in the MMORPG market.
As the nostalgic costume of "Sword Net III", "Sword Net 3 Origins" is based on the classic version of the 70-level "Wind Rising Rice Fragrance", reproducing the original full plot and the experience of the five gate school martial arts, while adding many contents such as big light gong and face pinching.
After the game opened for testing last year, it was squeezed out of the server as soon as it went online, selling beef jerky between thousands of people, playing a five-person copy to apply for changing children's diapers, and players had a lot of fun in nostalgic clothes.
Among the thousands of lucky ones, the happiness of the "Xiti" version of Xishanju is no less than that of being a father, and the excitement is only celebrated by the whole world. On the day of getting the version number, the official directly divided the 10,000 yuan prize with the players in the lottery.
Previously, the sword network 3 nostalgic service because there is no version number player can not recharge, so the official engaged in a remake version of the recharge to send the nostalgic service monthly card riot operation, this wave of legal loopholes in the activity was ruthlessly reported by friends, so the sword network 3 nostalgic suit can only be forced to change to free operation.
After holding back for several months, Xishanju just got the version number and decided to open the recharge system after a week, and on April 18, the data of the sword net 3 nostalgic service will be migrated to the "Sword Net 3 Origin", and the game will officially open the test of paying for no deletion.
III. "Casting TimeMaker"
"Caster" is the only console game in the first batch of reviewed editions in 2022, the game is developed by the domestic independent team Wild Kid Games, and the game has landed on Steam in 2019 and received special praise.
Three of the four people in the game's production group have had their biological fathers deceased, so the original purpose of Caster was to pay homage to the great father.
However, because the early development of the game relied on the enthusiasm of the developers for the game, the production team faced the dilemma of the capital chain breaking in 2017, but it finally survived by relying on the crowdfunding of players.
Clocker is a time-related puzzle game. It has its own unique time mechanism, using a two-protagonist narrative approach, the player can control the father and daughter two different characters to solve the puzzle.
The Switch version released this time is a ported version on the PC side.
Iv. Above All Things: Awakening
"Above Everything: Awakening" is a mobile game developed by 4399 Network Co., Ltd., led by the original team that created "Dream Journey to the West OL", and the game was unveiled at the game conference of the 4399 game box at the end of last year.
According to official sources, "Above All Things: Awakening" is a two-dimensional Q print style ARPG game, players can match a variety of "souls" with different skills in the game, and the "souls" themselves can also freely match various auxiliary soul crystals to enhance the skills, such as additional freezing, poison or burning effects, such a skill system allows players to combine freely to the greatest extent.
At present, "Above Everything: Awakening" is still in the research and development stage, and the game release time is to be determined, but the Android side can already make an appointment, and interested students can pay attention to it in advance.
V. "Master of Pottery"
"Pottery Master" is a domestic independent game, developed by AZGames, in the game players need to complete the production of pottery, open an exhibition, complete orders, train apprentices and other work to run a pavilion that belongs to you, the game has been released on Steam in 2019, and has received 98% praise of exaggerated results, not only the Chinese people but also foreigners are also full of praise.
The injured potter rediscovers his creative zeal in the game
Logically, this kind of game works that promote Chinese culture are not difficult to pass the review, but the independent producer AZ's version number application road is twists and turns, due to the violation of the publishing house that applies for the version number, resulting in the "Pottery Master" version number going through the application process again, and the second application happened to encounter last year's version number suspension, Xiaobian used a sentence to describe AZ's mood is "the whole person is numb".
Since there was no version number, "Master Potter" on Steam was once ordered to take down the shelves. After nearly 500 days of suffering, "Master of Pottery" successfully got the version number of the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal that has been developed will be launched in the near future.
VI. "Attack on rabbits"
Master Potter survived, but Attack on Rabbit died.
"Attack on Rabbit" is a horizontal version of the game developed by Baidu, which is one of the 23 games announced by Baidu in CJ last July, and Baidu, which has just announced a series of games, received the bad news that the version number was stopped at the end of July, And Xiaobian has to say that the luck of ordinary people is really not so good.
The game was the first overseas to be launched under the name "Bangbang Rabbit!", and it scored a 3.9 points on Google Play.
However, in the end, Baidu still did not survive the vacuum of the version number, and at the end of last year, it laid off its own Baidu Mobile Ecological Business Group (MEG), and the game business was basically gone, and "Attack on Rabbit" showed that it stopped developing.
summary:
"Attack on Rabbit" is not the only one to be killed by the version number, such as the official website of "Magic Eye Fight" that has been reviewed this time has become a website for downloading architectural materials, and the operating company of "Little City Lord" has directly switched to selling skin care products.
However, now that the game industry has finally ushered in a bitter new year, the stock market of the game industry has risen and fallen after the release of the reissue of the version number.
Previously, because of the suspension of the version number, the research and development of games such as "Sandstone Town Time" mobile games and "Box Fission" was still in the stage of creating new folders, so the practitioners shouted "Our company has been saved" while opening a happy overtime rush mode.
