Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 73

There are also players who monitor every video, and if anyone disrupts the queue, they pay the other player to delete the comment.

The scene was extremely large.

The employees at Qingfengyi were a little nervous seeing this. "Boss, what should we do?"

Lin Shuying said, "Let's issue an announcement: whichever player likes the Qingfengyi design can design it themselves."

"Forehead......"

In the past, no game indulged its players. Players only had three rights: to complain, to quit the game, and to give a bad review.

However, as long as the game is not illegal, inhumane, or otherwise, there generally won't be any problems.

Soon, Qingfengyi's settlement announcement came out. This time, because it was necessary to collect players' addresses, the announcement was also posted under both accounts.

Dear Qingfengyi players, the fifth phase of the event has successfully concluded. Players who ranked on the leaderboard, please send your mailing address. Additionally, Qingfengyi is aware of your request, but due to limited resources and time, the designers will need to consider this matter. Qingfengyi will be updating with even more exciting events, so please stay tuned.

In the game, the announcement was accompanied by an envelope effect, which was a leaf-shaped red-tasseled dart that shot straight into the lintel.

Many players were startled!

"Ugh, another failure! You lousy designer, you're going to lose us all like this!!"

"Qingfengyi, do you guys even know how to do business?! Just bring in the goods! Whether it's a thousand or a hundred thousand, as long as you're willing to pay, I'm willing to buy!"

"Qingfengyi, as long as you dare to offer it, we dare to buy it!"

"Qingfengyi, as long as you dare to offer it, we dare to buy it!"

"Qingfengyi, as long as you dare to offer it, we dare to buy it!"

.......

Lin Shuying laughed when she saw this, "I'm just afraid you won't buy it!"

"Heroic Martial Arts World, Timeless Weapons" is the pinnacle of grinding and spending money. To avoid spending money, you have to farm resources like crazy. You need to spend time accumulating resources, while spending money will allow you to get the game much earlier.

But weapons are fine to keep at home; if you take them into battle, you'll be worn down.

Durability and damage are considerable.

Wei Linwei was very much looking forward to the dungeon that the two of them had been working on for four months. He had already tested the values ​​and various display boxes more than two hundred times.

Lin Shuying tested his agility, judgment, and weapon usage with him. Lin Shuying hopes that Huaxia Jianghu will shock the entire intergalactic world when it debuts!

Lin Qiaoqiao has also made arrangements with Wenchang Shenxing and Kuilang Shenxing, and this time the two planets can accommodate 1 billion players.

Adding the previous player numbers, it's about one-thousandth of the number of players in the game with the most players, "The Origin of Enlightenment".

However, that game is not an ordinary game; it's an educational game. Anyone who enrolls in it becomes a player, ranging from elementary school students to the elderly. It boasts over 80 billion daily active users, a feat unmatched by any other game.

The resources behind it are unmatched; it's a collaborative effort across the entire galaxy, incorporating a vast amount of historical data, including the history of human migration. Players can freely explore and research historical materials, and even create their own player spaces.

It can't even compare to the level of their servers; they have dedicated intelligent servers that are comparable to a holographic world.

There are still two months left to refine "The Heroic World, the Timeless Weapons" and perfect the details.

During this period, Lin Shuying also made changes to the player's homepage.

The garden and princess room are combined, with the princess room designed as a small castle to reduce cross-region teleportation and allow players to better experience the feeling that Qingfengyi is a vast world.

Outside the castle are gardens, rose arches, and more. Players can buy components to grow and craft their own items, or purchase skins designed by Qingfengyi.

The area in front is perfect for gardening enthusiasts; the castle area, garden, and greenhouse alone will keep them entertained for a very long time. Lin Shuying has also designed a separate planting logbook, allowing gardening lovers to focus solely on their gardening endeavors.

It can record the growth process of plants; for every ten plants you plant, it creates a 30-second animation of their growth. It can also record illustrations, gardening artworks, and more.

Xiaoyiju has also undergone changes. The original house layout remains unchanged, but many functional areas have been added, such as a garden, studio, storage room, and study. These rooms have been enlarged and more layout options have been added.

Of course, players can also create their own layouts.

A brand new self-built version has also been released, where you can build your own house simply by purchasing building materials.

You can also buy withdrawal tokens to withdraw your materials yourself; just play however you like.

Lin Shuying looked at the finished product and sighed deeply, "Do you know what my original design concept was?"

Lin Qiaoqiao: "Make money?"

Lin Shuying smiled and said, "It's a concept, not an end."

Xia Chunqi: "Isn't making money a core principle?"

This made everyone laugh. Lin Shuying said, "Right? My initial idea was to let players buy, buy, buy! They could afford whatever they wanted, and buy whatever they wanted. Their only task upon entering the game was to buy, buy, buy!"

It's completely unrecognizable now.

Liang Ranran glanced at the game plan on the big screen, but couldn't quite understand it.

"Isn't now all about shopping?"

The display map shows 20,000 to 30,000 kinds of goods, and the store has become a four-story building.

The original plan was to have decorations and props occupy the first floor, accessories and clothes occupy the second floor, the third floor be all skins, and the fourth floor be the weapon and functional prop area.

Because the game is a daily side quest involving chivalry and legendary weapons, it contains a large number of items, and more will be added later, so it occupies an entire floor on its own.

It's clear that Lin Shuying admires and loves Chinese martial arts culture.

Lin Shuying thinks that makes sense; she hasn't gone against her original intention, it's all about buying things.

"You guys are right, let's keep buying, buy, buy, hahaha."

Two more months to refine it carefully and perfect the details.

The game side was a bit more relaxed, and I started to unleash my endless urge to craft.

How can a hairpin maker not make hairpins and other handicrafts?

"I'll be teaching you how to make beaded hairpins and ornaments over this period, which will be sold as items for the next event. We'll be spending a full three months on this, so the items we sell this time must be truly eye-catching!"

Bead making and stringing are among the few arts that have evolved from ancient times to the present.

It probably started in ancient times with stringing animal teeth, bone beads, and stone beads. Later, people began to use stringing beads to make all sorts of things, even clothes, armor, and tools, which gradually developed into a branch of beadwork.

The specifics are difficult to ascertain.

The art of pearl weaving reached its peak in China during the Qing Dynasty and has not declined in modern times. With the development of the Internet and the integration of Chinese and Western cultures, it has created many more novel things.

The apprentices knew about beadwork, but Lin Shuying hadn't mentioned bead collecting much.

Lin Shuying found a tray with twenty small compartments and placed three colors of green beads inside.

"The first hairpin I'll teach you is the bamboo leaf hairpin. I'll also use this hairpin to introduce you to the basic design of beadwork, how to arrange and draw patterns."

As she spoke, Lin Shuying found a piece of paper, drew a bamboo leaf on it, and filled the entire bamboo leaf with circles.

"Bead making involves using suitable beads to create various shapes, and the best pieces are truly beautiful. They shimmer with a rich variety of colors, making them an art form comparable to velvet flowers, glass beads, and embroidered patterns. Mastering bead making allows you not only to make hairpins but also bags..."

Lin Shuying slapped her forehead and said that she had forgotten something. After the third chrysanthemum dungeon ended, she got the inspiration to make a bag dungeon.

I need to make a note of this: the seventh activity is about making bags...

As they spoke, the drawing and wiring were already completed.

Then I took out the thread and started stringing.

Six employees sat in a circle and followed along to learn. Lin Shuying explained very slowly at first, trying to make sure everyone understood more at once so that they would spend less time learning afterwards.

She has more and more things to do and doesn't have much time to teach.

It's quite a headache. The apprentices learn by relying on the first lesson and the videos Xia Chunqi filmed. Luckily, everyone's learning ability is top-notch.

This learning pace is a bit slow, but there's nothing we can do about it.

“There are many basic techniques for beadwork. Let me demonstrate for you. Horizontal beading is done in rows. If the beads start with a pointed end, start with three beads. If they start with a square end, add more beads to overlap. Adjust according to your needs. There are also four-bead, five-bead, six-bead, eight-bead, and so on. Use them flexibly according to your needs and the design of the pattern.”

She strung the beads very quickly, demonstrating several bead-making techniques in just five minutes.

"The bamboo leaf hairpin I made today is very simple, just three identical bamboo leaves. The bamboo leaves need three colors of green beads. It's a good habit to label the beads for beginners to make it easier to learn and use them later. Some works can use dozens or even hundreds of colors of beads. Some colors are very similar and the same size. People with poor color discrimination may not be able to find them."

The bamboo leaves require 60 small beads in three colors, which isn't a lot.

She took out a 60-centimeter length of gold thread and began to thread it.

"The biggest challenge in beadwork is ensuring the thread doesn't break. When you first started practicing, you used elastic thread, and later you used copper wire. Different works use different types of thread, so you need to be flexible in your choices."

The beads are made of gold, silver, and copper wire, which is very delicate and breaks easily. If it's not stretched taut, the overall shape won't hold up and will collapse.

It can also be made with elastic rope, but the value will be much lower.

Lin Shuying felt that she couldn't improve, especially since the beads being used now were gemstones and glass beads, not plastic, mackerel, or resin beads.

Of course, in her previous life, Lin Shuying preferred resin brushes, which she considered better than Marconi or plastic brushes for surface coloring. Most of her brushes, however, were made of glass, as glass was more expensive.

If you come to interstellar space, you'll have money, hehe.

Go all out!

Make everything you couldn't bear to do, and use real gemstones for everything.

Where else can you find such extravagant wealth?

The three bamboo leaves were quickly made, each with a two-finger-long strand of gold thread at the end. The ends of the three leaves were twisted together, wrapped with dark green silk thread, and then bound to the main body of a wooden hairpin.

Curl the remaining tail upwards to create a beautiful shape, and a bamboo leaf beaded hairpin is finished.

The design is simple and elegant, with a deep green color that has a touch of tenderness, avoiding any sense of age or depression.

"It's so beautiful!"

The employees passed the silk around to each other, then looked at the crooked leaves they had strung together. They suspected that the different silk threads they were using were the reason they couldn't achieve the same effect.
