Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

"what……"

Shu Jing drawled out the words, then suddenly realized, and said into the microphone, half helpless and half amused.

"Oh, so you were talking about something in the game. Attention all Girls' Frontline players, today's exclusive scoop from Jiang Bai is here—you can't see cherry blossoms in the game anymore! If you want to take screenshots, come back next year!"

In the program "95 and Mars' Room", Shu Jing and Jiang Bai had already developed a tacit understanding in their division of labor and cooperation.

Simply put, Jiang Bai is often responsible for making silly mistakes in a serious manner or suddenly going off-topic, while Shu Jing is responsible for making sarcastic remarks and bringing the topic back on track.

However, Jiang Bai's digressions are often extremely natural, especially when it comes to the games she loves, where the topic can instantly and seamlessly switch from reality to the virtual world.

Her love for games borders on obsession, and the breadth of her interests is astonishing.

She can talk about everything from the earliest Famicom cartridges and the joysticks in arcades to various niche and popular console and PC games.

This "erudition" even extends to certain subtle areas.

Shu Jing still remembers a few years ago, when Jiang Bai talked enthusiastically about a game called "Warring States Rance", going on and on about how interesting its system and storyline were.

At the time, Shu Jing didn't quite understand, and made the suggestion casually.

"That sounds interesting. Why don't we ask Lao Zhou if we can get live streaming privileges and show it to everyone on the show?"

As a result, Jiang Bai panicked instantly, her face turned red, and she shook her hands like a rattle drum.

"No, no, no! Sister Jing! That won't do!"

"Hmm? I remember that game was Japanese, right? The copyright shouldn't be too hard to get..."

Shu Jing was a little puzzled, after all, Xinghuo had a lot of influence in Japan, and basically, if someone wanted to try out something on the show, or anything else, there was no problem.

"It's not about copyright..."

Jiang Bai's voice grew softer and softer, and his eyes darted around.

"The main problem is... that game... it won't pass censorship... it's an adult game..."

"ah!!?"

Shu Jing was stunned. After a few seconds, she realized what "butter" meant, and her cheeks turned red instantly, even more so than Jiang Bai's.

The two stared at each other, the air seemed to freeze for a few seconds, and then the studio erupted in laughter that the staff couldn't hold back.

That scene was repeatedly mentioned by fans and became one of the show's classic moments.

This also made Jiang Bai's reputation as a "homebody god" even more resounding.

"Well, whether I can see cherry blossoms in the game or not, I don't really care,"

Jiang Bai steered the conversation back on track, a hint of frustration on his face.

"What's really infuriating is that I logged on every day from the time the cherry blossoms first bloomed in spring, and even took MA2000 to stroll around that cherry blossom park, but in the end I still didn't trigger the legendary [kissing under the cherry blossom tree] hidden event... It was such a waste of time."

Her voice was filled with genuine sadness.

Shu Jing couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Haha, I seem to remember that mission... Wasn't that a storyline that was already proven to be created by players using Photoshop? The official team never did that, right?"

"Huh!? Really?"

Jiang Bai's eyes widened, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

"Try searching for guides or forum posts now; I remember a lot of people discussed it back then."

Shu Jing reminded her.

Jiang Bai immediately looked down and swiped his phone, letting out a wail a few seconds later.

"Ugh! It really looks like a photoshopped image! How awful!! I saw a screenshot posted by WA-chan on her WeChat Moments with the caption 'Finally triggered,' and I thought it was real..."

WA-chan is the voice actress for WA2000, another popular character in the game. Both are from the same company, Spark Entertainment. Voice actors are usually familiar with each other due to their work and often interact in private.

"Haha, no way, didn't you see that WA-chan's posting date is April 1st?"

Shu Jing comforted her.

"Don't be too sad, let's talk about something else that's making us happy. Speaking of which, Xiaobai, have you noticed that as soon as summer arrives, all those spring clothes start going on sale?"

She tried to steer the conversation in a more everyday direction.

“That’s right!”

Jiang Bai perked up when this topic came up, as if he had suddenly remembered something.

"Sister Jing, you mentioned that and it reminded me of something!"

"Sure enough, it's more cost-effective to buy clothes out of season."

Shu Jing nodded in agreement.

"That's it!"

Jiang Bai clapped his hands excitedly.

"Let me tell you, there's this dress I've had my eye on since spring, I absolutely love it! But it's a bit pricey, so I've been holding back, waiting for it to go on sale. And then today! This morning! It finally went on sale!!!"

"Oh? What clothes are making you so excited?"

Shu Jing asked curiously.

"Do you have a photo?"

There are no photos.

Jiang Bai shook his head and said mysteriously.

"But you should know, Sister Jing! It's that one. Didn't 'Girls' Frontline 2' just release that idol series skin set in early May? It was so popular back then! After buying it, you could watch the corresponding androids perform their exclusive dance in the base vehicle! I thought to myself, but the whole set of 10 outfits is just too expensive. Today, I finally got to wait for the limited-time discount!"

"Haha, I'm such a thrifty woman!"

Shu Jing's smile froze for a moment, then turned into a helpless expression of "I knew it," and she sighed softly.

"Ah~~ Just as I thought, after all this, it's still just a game."

New book: Game Development: Starting with Recreating 2D Games

There's good news and bad news. The bad news is that the book *Planet* is a complete flop. It seems writing original content is really difficult for me. I'll release all the drafts I have saved up and finish the first story...

The good news is that I can now free up my hands to write a new book.

Thus, the book "Game Development: Starting with Recreating 2D Games" came about.

In terms of content, the framework of the first chapter is somewhat similar to that of this book.

However, all subsequent game development-related content and player feedback will be rewritten. The new book will reduce the focus on business warfare and concentrate on game development itself, and many new game ideas will emerge.

This can be understood as a farming game starting a new save file.

Finally, whether you like it or not, you can search for it to see if it suits your taste.
