Honkai Star Rail: Developing Mobile Games on Xianzhou

"I’m not seeing things, am I?"

"That’s insanely cool!"

"You can use guns like that?!?"

Guinaifen’s eyes sparkled with admiration, as if baptized by Kafka’s ultimate move.

Despite being rebellious and portrayed as a villainess, there was no denying her sheer badassery!

The live stream audience was collectively stunned!

"Wow! That’s insane!"

"Elegant, truly elegant!"

"Is the developer possibly Stellaron Hunters themselves? How did they achieve such exquisite detail?! It’s just like Kafka’s assault rifle animation!"

"I’m at the scene; I am the bullet shell."

This sequence completely revolutionized the viewers’ perception.

They never realized...

a turn-based game could be executed with this level of sophistication!

The intricate visuals, stunning special effects, and lifelike characters were remarkable. Even without actual combat scenes, showcasing the ultimate ability’s animation alone would leave audiences astounded.

Moreover, it was fully controllable—

players could unleash it according to their own strategy!

"This is unbelievably awesome!"

"What game is this exactly?"

"I want to play it now! Right now!"

"Streamers, please, I beg you! Tell us the game’s name!"

"Weren’t you all saying earlier that you wouldn’t touch turn-based games?"

"Where’s the one who claimed turn-based gaming was outdated?"

"Trolls, care to explain yourselves?"

After recovering from her initial surprise, Guinaifen noticed the barrage of comments on the live stream:

"What game is this?" "What’s the name of the game?" "Tell us the game title!"

The messages flooded uniformly, creating a striking pattern.

Curiosity piqued, she couldn’t help but ask, "Hey, bro, what’s the actual name of this game? Why have I never heard of it before?"

Lin Yu smiled. While Guinaifen was fully immersed in the game earlier, he had already prepared his response. There was no need to reveal that he was the game developer just yet.

Although there was newbie protection, preventing observation by powerful entities, it didn’t make him invincible. Lin Yu first needed to secure some initial capital and acquire self-defense abilities from the System Shop.

He replied, "It’s a newly released mobile game; I only discovered it recently in the app store."

"The name is: Honkai: Stellar Rail."

As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking...

Lin Yu swiftly opened the system interface.

In the backend data section, the initial download count was just single digits.

Suddenly, it jumped to several dozen.

Then it surged past a hundred.

Within half a minute, it skyrocketed to over a thousand!

This was the power of promotion!

The number continued to climb relentlessly.

A wild grin spread across Lin Yu’s face!

Each download represented potential capital for him.

At that moment, Guinaifen waved towards the camera and announced, "Hey fam, today’s stream with little Guizi ends here!"

"This game is actually quite intriguing! I’m planning to download it on my jade tablet for further exploration!"

"Tomorrow at the same time, we can discuss our progress in the game together."

As she spoke, Guinaifen prepared to close the live stream.

Clearly, she had already been captivated by Honkai Star Rail’s charm and couldn’t wait to download it on her phone.

However, as soon as she mentioned ending the stream, a flood of dissenting comments appeared on the screen.

"Don’t go yet, little Guizi! I can’t play myself right now; watching you is my only option!"

"To be honest, I’m currently interning at a company and can only watch the streamer play!"

"Streamers, please have some sympathy for those of us who can’t game!"

"Witnessing little Guizi playing is even more entertaining!"

Guinaifen displayed a helpless expression.

Leaning closer to the camera, she whispered softly, "Folks, we can’t keep using this guy’s jade tablet just for gaming."

"I actually want to create my own account too!"

Although her voice was low, Lin Yu still heard it clearly.

He calmly responded, "No problem at all. Seeing as this account seems destined for you, I’ll gladly gift it to you."

"Notice the ID in the bottom right corner; it represents the registration order of players, and this one happens to be **."

"That’s true." Guinaifen glanced down.

"Well then, thank you very much."

With an available account ready for use, Guinaifen gratefully accepted. It saved her the trouble of starting fresh with a new registration.

However, discontent began brewing among the viewers in the live chat.

"Is just a ’thank you’ enough from the streamer? No way, no way!"

"I’ve heard that many game IDs can be quite valuable. There’s even a company called South Pole Games that deliberately hypes up certain IDs for profit."

"Streamers should understand social etiquette, right? Someone introduced you to the game and gifted you this ID; shouldn’t you offer some form of gratitude?"

Lin Yu’s gaze skimmed over these comments.

On the surface, he remained unaffected, but internally, he silently praised these supportive viewers!

These viewers truly understand me! I love you guys so much!

Guinaifen’s face flushed with embarrassment.

"O-of course, I prepared something as a token of gratitude!"

"I always intended to properly thank this young man!"

"That... here, take these 500,000 Credits if you don’t mind. Please accept them!"

"And let’s not linger in this eerie place any longer."

"We should find somewhere cozy, grab some drinks, and continue our journey through Honkai: Stellar Rail!"
