Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Having Her Promote It Would Be a Great Thing

If this game were released in this world and turned into a fully immersive VR version,

Tsk tsk, just thinking about it was exciting. It would definitely harvest a massive wave of Astonishment Points!

This was the one!

No sooner thought than done.

"Consume Astonishment Points. I want to create Silent Hill PT." Lucien commanded.

[Ding, the production process for Silent Hill PT has been sent to your mind!]

The next moment, Lucien felt a huge flood of information pour into his brain.

He silently digested it for a while before opening his computer and getting to work.

Creating a game first required a game engine.

However, all the game engines currently available on the market were unable to meet the conditions needed to produce Silent Hill PT.

They all lacked one crucial element: realism.

For example, the textures in Counter-Strike were still in an animated style. Even though it had been converted to VR, it still looked obviously fake at first glance.

There were other problems as well, such as no collision volumes between objects, and very little interaction between the player and the surrounding environment, among other things.

Compared to the maturity of VR technology, the game engine technology in this world lagged far behind.

This was also one of the reasons why there were no good games.

Fortunately, with the system's help, this was naturally not a problem.

A game development engine had now appeared in Lucien's computer. This was black technology from the system.

Lucien named it Unreal Engine.

With the game engine ready, he began programming.

Since he already had sufficient knowledge in his mind, the process was not difficult at all.

Lucien's hands flew wildly across the keyboard, typing line after line of code without any hesitation.

In this way, Lucien shut himself in his bedroom and spent nearly a full week,

finally managing to grind out Silent Hill PT through sheer effort.

The entire game was roughly 50 gigabytes in size.

"Phew, making a game all by myself really takes too much time."

After finishing, Lucien could not help stretching lazily and letting out a sigh.

This was only a test version, yet it had already taken such a long time.

It seemed that in the future he would need to recruit people, or ask the system to help with production?

As long as he spent a bit more Astonishment Points, it would be fine.

In short, the game was now complete. All he needed to do was release it on a game platform to sell it.

Of course, Silent Hill PT was only a demo. Lucien's plan was to first build its reputation and earn a huge wave of Astonishment Points before worrying about making money.

However, if he simply uploaded it like this with no promotion or advertising at all...

Lucien had full confidence in the game's quality. It would become popular sooner or later, but he was an impatient person and did not want to wait too long.

Just as Lucien was deep in thought, the door to his bedroom was pushed open and a woman poked her small head inside.

The woman had a beautiful, seductive fox-like face, a pair of charming phoenix eyes, a small nose, and thin lips. She was a rare beauty.

But the next moment, her slightly hoarse and rough voice rang out boldly:

"Hey, Luc, you've been cooped up at home for a whole week. What exactly have you been doing?"

This woman was Lucien's older sister in this world, named Jenny.

Jenny was a streamer. She had a sweet appearance and a funny, humorous personality that made her very likable, but her only shortcoming was her voice.

Her voice was somewhat thick and even sounded a bit rough, which completely clashed with her sweet looks.

Precisely because her voice was so distinctive, even though she looked like a beauty, her audience simply could not hold back.

She had been given the nickname "Hype Killer" and was often described as "What a nice girl, shame her voice is deep."

Seeing his sister, Lucien suddenly had an idea.

Having her promote his game would be a wonderful thing.

"Hey, why are you staring at me with those lecherous eyes? I'm asking you a question!"

Jenny saw that Lucien was silently staring at her and continued speaking.

Recently, her little brother had been acting strange. He had locked himself in his bedroom, ordering takeout for every meal, and spent most of his time in front of the computer. She had no idea what he was up to.

She could not help worrying about Lucien's mental state.

Then Lucien smiled:

"I'm working on something big. Sis, haven't you always wanted to become a top streamer? I can help you with that."

"You help me?" Jenny rolled her eyes.

"What can you help with? Well, it's not impossible. We can stream together and let the viewers see my handsome little brother's face. That would definitely attract a bunch of female fans."

Lucien's appearance was indeed quite outstanding, and his voice was warm and clear. His natural conditions were actually better than his sister's.

"You want to use my face? Dream on."

Lucien refused as expected.

"It's like this. I have a really fun game here. If you play it during your stream, it will definitely attract viewers."

"Really?" Jenny looked at Lucien with suspicion written all over her face.

"Of course it's real." Lucien nodded very seriously:

"I guarantee that playing it will help you gain fans. If you don't gain any fans, I'll take care of all the housework for this entire week!"

"Tsk, you're actually making such a heavy oath."

Jenny's eyes widened:

"Alright then, where do I download it?"

She still trusted her little brother quite a lot afterall.
