The buzz around Outlast online was still going strong.
How long the flames ignited by Outlast would keep burning ultimately depended on how long it could remain popular on streaming platforms.
Relying solely on the game's horror quality to keep Outlast massively popular was unrealistic.
At the same time, some game companies and designers online had reportedly begun developing similar horror games.
They were obviously preparing to ride the wave of horror fever stirred up by Outlast.
As for the genre, there was no need to guess. They would most likely all be escape-focused games without combat systems.
Chen Xu did not pay much attention to this.
After all, developing Outlast had not originally been part of his plans.
If he had not happened to draw an item that could convert into points, he would not have planned to develop this game either.
"Two months is a little too rushed," Chen Xu said as he checked the date and calculated things in his head.
Truly large-scale games, as well as VR games, were temporarily out of consideration as before.
He still lacked the necessary capital.
Besides, the New Year was approaching. Even if he wanted to develop a medium-sized game, it would not be released until after the holiday.
During that time, Chen Xu also planned to hire, through headhunters, some talent who could handle matters beyond game development.
Other than that, there was the Nebula Game Platform.
In terms of functionality, the Nebula Game Store was already quite complete.
The shop, library, community, friends list, and reviews were all there, including the Workshop from the Steam platform of his previous life.
Of course, some interfaces related to recommendations and such UI had not been created yet. After all, there were only three games on the platform in total.
