Description

Game business generation method

The present invention relates to the field of mobile network game services, and more particularly to a game service generation method. Background of the invention

With the rapid development of the Internet and mobile communication technologies, mobile network games have become the focus of communication operators' data services. Currently, game developers generally adopt their own strategies for developing mobile online games and then running the developed games through their own game platforms. Therefore, games that are usually developed can only run on the developer's own game platform, and compatibility with other game platforms. Relatively poor. In order to enable the game to run on other game platforms, it is often necessary to invest a large amount of manpower and material resources to modify the game to meet the standards of different game platforms, resulting in great waste of resources. In view of this, the industry's development trend is that game developers and game platform manufacturers follow a unified standard to develop games and game platforms, so that the problem of running the game on multiple different game platforms can be solved. Based on this trend, the Open Education Mobile Alliance (OMA) has developed relevant standards, and each game developer only needs to develop games based on the standard, so that it can run on the game platform developed according to the standard. The game platform is called an open game platform.

Obviously, the open game platform allows game developers to focus on the design and development of the game without having to worry about the game. However, the problem is: How to make a game truly generate game business on different game platforms, and put it into use. Since a new game is to be used normally on the game platform, it is necessary to add basic game information, game table information, game level information, terminal type information, client type and game room on the game platform to finally generate a complete game. Game business. When used by game developers When the game platform of the game is generated by the game platform, the game developer who is familiar with the game can directly install the basic information items of the game and the files of the game directly onto the game platform. In order to make the game developed by yourself run on other game platforms, it is often only because of the permissions and other issues that all the necessary data and programs required for the game to be run can be sent to the publisher of the game platform. The platform publisher enters the basic information of the game item by item, and then the game platform reads the input game: according to the game business. However, the information of a game is generally only familiar to its developers, and the publishers of the game platform often have difficulty understanding the basic information of the game, so that they can enter huge game information data items that they are not familiar with into the game platform system. In the middle, it is often difficult, and the mistakes are numerous, which causes the game business to be delayed and normal operation, which prolongs the generation cycle of the game business and is extremely unfavorable for the commercial use of the game.
