Chapter 33 Ah Gan Collapses
For Lu Ran, who has extensive experience, developing the game "Sheep is a Sheep" was extremely simple.
In its previous life, this little game had over ten million users on mobile web platforms alone.
In the following days, during the most intense period of the short drama competition, Lu Ran neglected his duties and began to focus all his efforts on developing this new game.
As a veteran coder who had immersed himself in coding for many years in his previous life, and with so much free time now, it wouldn't be too difficult for Lu Ran to write a game called "Sheep's Goat".
He copied the core algorithm, interface design, and the catchy background music exactly as they were in his previous life.
As for the levels, there are still only two.
The first hurdle is easy; anyone can do it.
The second level is so long you can't see the end of it.
However, this was also something he used to kill time; if it were too simple, it wouldn't have the same stickiness as in his previous life.
After several days of working overtime, Lu Ran finally finished writing the code and completed the graphics optimization.
"Playing alone is no fun. Although I can't play online, it's still nice to add some color to this barren world of the game." With that thought, Lu Ran casually packaged the completed mini-program and anonymously uploaded it to several mainstream mini-game platforms, under the name "Wool Harvester".
The description consists of only one line: "Less than one percent of people can pass the second stage."
Afterwards, Lu Ran put the matter out of his mind and started playing a game called "Sheep is a Sheep" on his phone.
Meanwhile, Shark Live Streaming Platform.
"Agan," a game streamer in the console gaming section, is routinely searching for obscure and quirky games on Steam. His streaming style revolves around finding those niche yet creative little games.
Because many of the mini-games have very few players, but are quite fun, his live stream still has a large audience.
At this time of day, viewers in the live stream know that he's about to take on a new game.
He named himself "Agan" because he would grind through every mini-game before moving on to the next one.
As he was searching, a silly sheep's head suddenly appeared in his search box.
"Sheep's Goat? What kind of game is this? It was just released today." Ah Gan looked at the release date, paying particular attention to the description: "Less than one percent of people can pass the second level."
A simple brief introduction, however, piqued his interest.
"Brothers, what do you say?" A-Gan asked the live stream audience, "Less than one percent approved, and the author is so arrogant, should we take him down?"
The viewers in the live stream started interacting wildly:
"So arrogant, we have to teach him a lesson, Ah Gan, let's show this author who doesn't know what's good for him."
"New game, Ah Gan, let's do a speedrun!"
Seeing that the audience in the live stream was responding well, A-Gan clicked in.
As a catchy, brainwashing background music started playing, the first level appeared in front of the computer.
The first level is less of a level and more of a gameplay introduction; it involves clicking on three identical icons to eliminate them below.
However, the icons at the top are stacked, so you can only click the top icon first, and then click the bottom icon.
The first hurdle was easily overcome without any pressure.
"That's it?" Ah Gan made an exaggeratedly disdainful expression at the camera. "Brothers, I'm not bragging, but I could beat the second level of this game with my eyes closed! Give me two minutes, no, one minute is enough!"
Seeing that the first level was utterly insulting, Ah Gan was full of confidence for the second level.
"Tch, Ah Gan, this is no fun. Everyone knows the first few levels are easy. If you're so capable, try passing the last level in a minute."
"I think the second level will be a bit more difficult. If it's all this easy, the game will be too boring."
Viewers in the live stream were also speculating.
Ah Gan confidently clicked on the second level.
"The second level does indeed have a lot more icons, but that's all within my expectations."
Ah Gan quickly clicked on all the identical icons at the top layer to eliminate them.
He remembered the boast he had just made.
But after clicking through the first layer, Ah Gan found himself stuck in a grid; the next layer didn't have the icons he expected.
"This time doesn't count, I clicked too fast just now. This time, I plan to beat the second level of this game in 5 minutes."
Five minutes later.
"This doesn't count either. I thought there were no more icons below, but who knew there were other icons hidden underneath. Let's try again, ten minutes, I'm sure it'll work in ten minutes."
Ten minutes later.
"Wow, this game is something else! And the creator is a bit cheeky too. How come there are so many icons under icons? And how many layers are there?"
Half an hour later.
One hour later.
Two hours later.
...
Ah Gan is devastated. This game, the second level is way too hard!
The viewers in the live stream went from being indifferent at first to being incredulous later on.
The first hurdle was originally to be tackled with ease and composure.
The second challenge left the streamer in a rush, scrambling and stumbling.
They've even started blatantly lying.
"Hey streamer, are you sure you can handle this? We've been on the second round for two hours already. It's not shameful to admit defeat once if you can't."
"I find this game really annoying. Even though it looks like there are no icons at the bottom, there are actually icons all over the bottom."
"There's a skyscraper hidden under this tiny icon."
"This game is really despicable."
"I actually think this game is quite interesting; it's much more innovative than previous games."
"The games these days are either mindless and idiotic, or they're all about grinding monsters and spending money. I'm sick of them."
"I want to download this game and try it out. I refuse to believe I can't pass the level."
"I'll download it and take a look too."
As A-Gan failed time and time again, it aroused the interest of the viewers in the live broadcast room. On the first day, Lu Ran's game was downloaded several thousand times for no apparent reason, which can be described as an unexpected success.
The game "Sheep" and its designer, "Wool Harvester," gradually spread in the gaming community.
...
Shen Yuege.
After several days of intense work, Shen Yuege's album is progressing very quickly.
With the addition of the song "The Wind Rises," the new album is even more powerful.
Shen Yuege already had a premonition that the attempts by Legend and Myth to block her, and Xu Manlin and Weng Qingya to climb the ladder by stepping on her, were likely to fail.
However, because Shen Yuege has been immersed in polishing her new album, there has been almost no activity from her online.
Therefore, the online discussions are now more about which one will come out on top: Xu Manlin's new hit album or newcomer Weng Qingya's new debut album.
"Need I say more? Xu Manlin has many outstanding producers involved this time. Manlin will definitely regain her diva status this time."
"I have high hopes for Weng Qingya. She has a very sweet voice; she might be a dark horse!"
Just as the two fan groups were arguing online, a new song suddenly surged onto the charts.
The Human World!
