Chapter 153 - No Budget Limit (1/2)

The foundations of Onmyoji were very clear cut. Even though its playstyle was vastly different from I Am MT after generations of card games, the core was still identical, it was still getting cards, training them, and arranging a team.

The more difficult parts of the development process would be the quality of the artwork as well as making models. Onmyoji’s models were exceedingly high quality, much higher than those in Warcraft and Wulin Legend.

There was a lot of work that needed to be done outside of the models such as background music, dubs, and character artworks. These were relatively to solve as long as he had money.

In Chen Mo’s plan, Onmyoji was split into six different categories, Shikigami and Onmyoji system, quests, combat, socials (hunts, mail, chatting, etc.), Souls and shop related things, and other systems(summoning, codex, etc.).

The most important ones were Shikigami, Onmyoji, Souls, and everything related to the combat system, followed by the story. Everything else should fall in place when these two are done.

Chinese card games were incredibly easy to play, and the difficulty comes from developing a play style based on the stats of the cards, which was how Chen Mo managed to finish the draft pretty quickly.

Chen Mo sent the concept draft and the sketch for Abe No Seimei to Su Jinyu before going downstairs.

Before Su Jinyu could take a proper look at the document, Wen Lingwei and Qian Kun gathered around her.

They were the two most interested in this type of game, which was why they were so excited to hear about the design document.

Everyone was shocked to see that sketch of Abe No Seimei.

“What? Abe no Seimei? Isn’t that a famous Onmyoji?” exclaimed Zheng Hongxi.

“Yeah, that clothing is also quite Japanese. Is this the theme you’re going for, manager?” asked Wen Lingwei.

Zheng Hongxi was a bit conflicted, “Is it going to work? The IPs they use are better than the last. Onmyoji doesn’t seem popular in China either, so do you plan on making your own IP, manager?”

Su Jinyu looked through the design document and said, “The manager wrote that it’ll be high quality, and will even hire voice actors in Japanese? From the looks of it, the game might be much more complicated than I Am MT.”

“How knows how this will end up!”

Everyone was kind of worried.

Chen Mo came down stairs while the discussion was still going on.

“Let’s go into the meeting room, I’ll quickly go over the plans for the game,” said Chen Mo as he walked towards the meeting room.

Wen Lingwei followed, “I want to listen in too!”

Chen Mo nodded, “Alright, suits you.”

After getting seating Jia Peng couldn’t help but ask, “Manager, what type of game is it? Is it similar to I Am MT?”

Su Jinyu asked too, “Another pay to win game?”

“Oh, this will be a very honest game.” replied Chen Mo.
