Chapter 20 (1/2)
“Qian’er, we’re done!”
“I ran through it twice and haven’t discovered any bugs.”
“Can we publish it now?”
Ma Yang was way more excited than Pei Qian; after all, this was the first game that he had worked on.
Even though… all he did was fill up a requirement form.
The so called ‘bug check’ took around four hours but Pei Qian did not intend to waste anymore time.
The main reason was that the game came from a template and in itself, the template had already been through multiple checks and was an almost bug-free version.
Pei Qian merely tweaked some of the skills settings while changing the text descriptions. Other than that, he had not touched the other things and there would naturally not be any serious bugs.
But of course, even if there was any bug right now, Pei Qian wouldn’t be able to fix it on his own and would have to go online to hire someone to do it.
“Published.”
Pei Qian still went with the set workflow and submitted the game for the vetting process.
But before that, he had to determine the game’s title and summary.
He decided to go along with his previous line of thought. The name and summary must be so simplistic that gamers would not be able to understand it or guess at the game’s content.
It would be best if it did not contain any hot keywords as well.
For example, ‘Three Kingdoms’ must not appear in the game’s title!
Otherwise, gamers who liked three kingdoms related games would be able to find this game by searching with those keywords and they might download it to play.
Thinking for a moment, an idea struck Pei Qian as he started keying in the name and summary.
Name: Ghost General.
Summary: This is a normal card game with nothing new.
Sale Price: 10 yuan + in-game purchases.
He was certain that gamers would not be able to guess at the type of game it was just by reading the name and summary!
At the same time, the 10 yuan barrier of entry would be enough to deter most gamers who might accidentally stumble across the game.
Compared to The Lonely Desert Road, the game this time round had a larger size – after all, this was a mobile game with more content as well.
As such, the vetting process should take slightly longer and it would most likely only be done by the next day earliest.
After settling everything, Pei Qian’s worries of the previous day had disappeared entirely.
Even if the game’s original arts had decent quality, so what?
How would the gamers see the original arts if they don’t know about the existence of the game to begin with?
Pleased with himself, Pei Qian closed the back end with glee, full of hope towards the settlement a week later.
He could already envision himself in a bright future spending his days like a bum enjoying food and drinks after getting the 300,000…

That afternoon, Ruan Guangjian woke up from hunger.
The others had woken up as well.
Old Huang was packing the house as he cleared all the instant noodle cups and all sorts of rubbish in a huge trash bag, ready to throw it all away.
“Guangjian, you’re awake? How was it, have you handed in the work? Did the client request for any amendments?” Old Huang asked as he packed up.
Ruan Guangjian flipped out of bed. “Nopes. Boss Pei said he was extremely pleased and there’s no need for amendments.”
“Extremely pleased?” Old Huang was surprised. “What sort of a godly client is this? He didn’t even request for a single amendment?”
Ruan Guangjian nodded his head. “That’s right. Even though, it’s true that the quality of our original art has nothing much that needs to be amended,all these shitty clients would usually… eh, is there any cup noodles left?”
“Nopes, we finished them all. Let’s eat out tonight to celebrate,” Old Huang suggested.
Ruan Guangjian nodded his head in agreement. “Sure, that’s what I thought too. We’ll go out and have a good meal before splitting the money. It’s been rough on everyone for the past few days.”
