Chapter 1: Ordinary starting point, the beginning of the game
Xiao Wu was born in a quiet small town. Both his parents are hard-working ordinary workers, and the family atmosphere is simple and warm. When he was a child, he was the most ordinary kid among the crowd. He went to school regularly every day and played with his friends after school. There was nothing special about him. When Xiao Wu was 10 years old, he went to a classmate's house to play and encountered a video game for the first time. It was a simple arcade-style game. Players controlled pixel villains to shuttle through levels full of obstacles, and passed levels by avoiding enemies and picking up props.
Looking at the dancing pictures on the screen, Xiao Wu was immediately attracted. He was deeply fascinated by the colorful images, the exciting rhythm, and the sense of accomplishment brought by every successful pass. After returning home, Xiao Wu couldn't forget that game, and the scenes in the game kept popping up in his mind. From then on, whenever he had the chance, he would play the game, and even if it was just a short experience, it would make him excited. At first, the parents just regarded it as their children's normal entertainment and did not interfere much.
When Xiao Wu entered middle school, his love for games became more and more profound. He not only played games, but also began to explore the design and mechanism behind the games. In his spare time, he often goes to bookstores and reads various game magazines. From the latest game information, to technical analysis of game development, to industry trends, he reads them all with great interest. In a magazine, he learned how game designers create virtual worlds and write code to make characters move, which made him very curious about game development.
At the same time, Xiao Wu joined an online game enthusiasts forum.
