Chapter 213: Chapter 93: Tingling with pleasure! You’re a whiz at making games!_4

Moreover, there’s a large recycling bin next to the house.

Everything except for farming tools can be thrown into it, and income settlement would take place during sleep.

Chang Detai tossed in some plant fibers, tree seeds, and stones he had collected while clearing the area.

After entering the house and clicking to sleep,

the settlement screen for the first day appeared.

A series of crisp Gold Coin rolling sound effects emerged.

[Today’s Earnings: 34 Gold Coins]

"Well, that was fast to make money?" A small surge of smug pleasure bubbled up inside him.

Soon, when the next day arrived,

Chang Detai pushed open the door of the house.

He was startled by the sight in front of him.

The seeds he had just sown yesterday

had already sprouted a patch of green seedlings today.

Looking at the lush greenery and vibrant life in front of his home,

Chang Detai felt a few more ounces of joy.

"Did this guy actually speed up the growth time of plants too?"

"Indeed, if we were to go by the real-time growth of crops, the process would be very slow, even if a day could pass with just a sleep, players would need to click through many days to see results."

"Yet he precisely captured the players’ psyche, allowing players to see changes every time they wake up..."

This really piqued Chang Detai’s curiosity.

On the second day in the game, he decided not to do anything and, after simply watering the seeds, went straight to sleep.

When he woke up on the third day,

as expected, he saw the tender green seeds had grown a bit more.

A click on them would pop up the prompt [Estimated Time to Maturity: 2 Days].

Chang Detai’s anticipation was thoroughly hooked.

He wanted to see what the rice would look like once fully grown and how much money he could get from harvesting it.

Water, then sleep again!

The fourth day.

Water.

Sleep again!

Finally, when the fifth day arrived,

Chang Detai controlled the protagonist to push open the door of the cottage.

Immediately, his gaze was drawn to the small 3*5 plot of land he plowed right outside the door.

The golden crops swayed in the wind, the heavy rice ears bending under the weight of the full grains.

They were ripe!

Chang Detai’s eyes gleamed with joy, as if he himself had turned into a farmer, facing his bountiful harvest with a heart overflowing with happiness.

He even felt he hadn’t been this excited in a long time.

He rushed to the paddy field.

Frenziedly clicking the right mouse button, he collected the ripe crops into his inventory.

The unique and bewitching ’pop’, ’pop’, ’pop’ sound of harvesting crops filled his mind.

In no time, all 15 plots of land were cleared.

And what made him even happier was,

seeds should in theory have produced 15 portions of rice.

Yet, in his backpack, there were 18 portions!

Extra yield!

"This kid even added some elements that don’t exist in reality."

"Did he apply the common game mechanic of critical hits to the farming genre?"

"Clever boy... you really know how to capture the players’ hearts," Chang Detai’s brows lifted slightly, his heart filled with even greater joy!

This is an unexpected extra harvest!

Each additional harvest means I can sell one more portion for money.

Tell me, which farmer doesn’t wish to sell a little more, then a little more of the crops they’ve worked so hard to grow?

And when Chang Detai took a closer look.

He was once again amazed by Ke Jin’s boundless imagination!

Out of the 18 portions of rice, there were two portions that were placed separately in the inventory.

A little silver star had been drawn at the bottom left corner of the rice icon.

Click to view the detailed description.

[Silver Star Level Crops: Increases the selling price by an additional 20%.]

[Description: The higher the farmer level, the higher the chance to harvest high-quality crops. Your current farmer level is 1, with a high-quality critical hit bonus of 10%.]

[You can gain farmer experience and level up by continuously harvesting crops.]

"Hiss..." Chang Detai’s gaze widened incredibly.

Another freaking surprise!

How much time has passed?

It’s not even 15 minutes.

This Designer Ke, did he just keep giving me so many surprises in the early stages of the game?

Each one is unexpected!

And an even greater joy was still to come.

As soon as Chang Detai couldn’t wait to throw the rice into the selling box and dashed back inside to sleep.

That night, the settlement screen popped up.

[Today’s revenue total: 661 Gold Coins.]

Just now, I was bustling around, cleaning up for several minutes, and made less than 40 dollars.

Now, after finishing up the farming, just watering and sleeping every day, I could directly make over six hundred??

Instantly! The joy of the harvest almost filled Chang Detai’s chest!

From clearing the land, tilling, sowing, watering, to harvesting.

This game nearly perfectly reproduces the farming process of reality, allowing players to feel immersed while playing as farmers.

But this game’s design is also highly simplistic and aesthetic.

Throughout the process, it discards the extraneous and leaves only anticipation and joy!

Just under half an hour of gameplay had Chang Detai, who hadn’t even thought about how a farming game should be presented, feeling so exhilarated that his scalp tingled slightly.

"Damn, this is the feeling! This is exactly the ideal farming game in my heart!" Barely able to hold back his exclamation, Chang Detai even let out an uncharacteristic swear word.

It was like the phrase often mentioned when describing science fiction before.

I do not know what science fiction truly means, but when I see it, I just know it is.

At this moment, Chang Detai felt the same way.

I didn’t know what a farming game would be like.

But when I started playing Stardew Valley,

I knew, this game made my barren imagination of farming rich and colorful!

"Good job, kid! You really are the future of our gaming industry!" Chang Detai took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over the game screen, his eyes full of delight.
