System: Master Your Life-Chapter 833 - 204: Sales Surpass 100,000, Game Poised for a Big Explosion 4
But you can’t rely solely on looks; you’ve got to have the physique, and a good body can be trained for.
Next up, the gym phase begins.
Even though this is a game, players can’t simply click a button to obtain a great body.
Xu Lin still wants players to engage actively, designing workout plans, including exercise and nutrition tracking.
This is like a city-building game where players slowly develop their city (body), allowing it to grow (improve physique). This is a tedious and time-consuming step. In most games, players don’t usually have the patience for this, but Xu Lin’s game faces no competition, so he can do what he wants.
However, for players who upload their personal image, it’s different. Once the fitness part is completed, their game avatar closely resembles their real-life fit physique, although the game will enhance their appearance.
Meanwhile, during the fitness journey, the protagonist finds himself back at the forefront after having reported his bullying boss. The new beautiful boss detests such scumbags and immediately has the boss fired. Coincidentally, the new boss is in need of talent and offers the protagonist his superior’s position. The tables have turned, and the protagonist has successfully taken revenge.
It’s very dramatic here, something unlikely in reality, but it’s fun to develop the story this way. It’s a game; as long as it feels satisfying, who cares about logic?
Xu Lin spent four hours setting up the various elements of the second part. Once finished, he uploaded it to the game.
Xu Lin set up an update reminder on the game’s homepage.
The homepage featured a cover, including a picture and introduction of the first female lead.
Yu Anman: The first female lead, standing at 1.75 meters, a parachuted new CEO at the main company, characterized as the president, 32 years old, divorced without children, a lonely yet proud woman. Do you want a woman like this? 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
"Wow, this leading lady is something else!"
"Author, is this really AI-generated? How can it be so realistic?"
"With such a figure, such height, such looks, is it possible for someone like this to exist in reality? Has AI really become this powerful? Those so-called beautiful celebrities are nothing in comparison, right? Just her height makes our entertainment industry beauties bow their heads!"
"Damn, I can’t speak coherently anymore. This game is definitely revolutionary; how did your company create it?"
Yu Anman, the first female lead, stirred up a small wave in the gaming community.
At four in the afternoon.
Game sales: 69,582 people.
The game continues to gain momentum.
Even with the second part updated, based purely on story, the gameplay lasts only about four hours without wandering around, so players soon encountered this female lead’s official appearance.
She looks even better than in the pictures.
All players were stunned.
"Wow! This high fashion trend seems to burst through the screen; she walks so gracefully!"
"My goodness, those voluptuous curves and that pure yet alluring appearance! I am blown away! As a gamer, I’ve never experienced anything like this. I’m going to cry; in reality, I’d never see such a woman. Developer, you’re my hero! Awoo.jpg"
"Moreover, this is AI-generated! Feel like celebrities might lose their jobs. AI can now generate lifelike humans."
"I don’t know about celebrities, but game industry giants are definitely trembling; how can they compete with this technology?"
"Curious, which company developed this game? Why is only ’Young Master Lin’ credited? Is there no company?"
"Is it an independently developed game?"
"No way, independent development can’t be this good, especially with more than sixty thousand players now; it can’t be supported by a solo developer."
As time passes, "Man’s Guide to Reversing Fortune" is continuously gaining traction.
At half-past six in the evening, just when Xu Lin was heading back to school, sales officially broke 100,000.
Before Xu Lin left, he took a look, and it was over 97,000. After only a dozen minutes, it surpassed 100,000. The growth rate is rapidly increasing; once the base is large enough, further growth will be fast, reaching a peak before declining like a parabola.
Xu Lin had to return for roll-call tonight, mainly because he hadn’t been back at school for a while.
Besides, Xu Lin planned to stay in the dorm tonight.
"Cold?"
Xu Lin asked Ning Yuhuan, who was hugging him from behind; it was cloudy in the afternoon.
It’s already dark after six.
Xu Lin was on Route Nine, the two wheels braving the wind.
"Not cold!"
"Tell the truth."
"Honestly, not cold. Look at me; I’m wearing thick clothes and a hat."
"That’s good then."
"Honey, are you cold?"
"I’m definitely not cold; I’m wearing the sweater you knitted for me last year. How could I be cold? "
"Hmph!"
Ning Yuhuan snorted adorably, seeing Xu Lin in the sweater she had knitted for him around this time last year.
