Becoming the Strongest as a Game Dev Rewrite Ch 10
🕑 Added 2024-11-28 13:43:46 +0000 UTCSam strolls through the bustling streets of Jade City, his arms laden with grocery bags. As he weaves through the throngs of people, he can't help but overhear the lively conversations around him.
"Did you try the new Batman simulation? It's incredible!" a young man exclaims to his friend.
"Yeah, my combat proficiency went up after a couple of hours playing it. I can't believe it's from some small developer," his companion replies.
Sam's ears perk up at the mention of the Batman simulation. He knows it's his creation, the one he poured his heart and soul into, and now it's gaining widespread acclaim. A sense of pride swells within him.
As he continues on his way, he passes by a mother and her young son. The child tugs at his mother's sleeve, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Mom, can I get a Batman action figure?" the boy pleads.
The mother shakes her head apologetically. "I'm sorry, sweetie, but there aren't any Batman toys available. He's not a real character, you know."
Sam slows his pace, a thoughtful expression crossing his face. The child's longing for a Batman toy sparks an idea in his mind. Perhaps he could explore the possibility of creating and selling Batman-themed merchandise in the future. The simulation has already proven its popularity, and catering to the demand for physical products could be a lucrative venture.
Sam hurries back to his apartment, eager to replenish his mana reserves. The Arkham Asylum simulation has proven to be a resounding success, but he knows he needs a larger mana pool to unlock its full potential.
Entering his humble abode, Sam sets down the grocery bags and approaches the Simulation Gem on his desk. The E-rank gem glimmers with untapped energy, and Sam takes a deep, steadying breath. He settles into a cross-legged position, closing his eyes as he begins the arduous process of mana extraction.
Focusing his mind, Sam allows the Gem's power to flow into him, feeling the familiar tingling sensation as the mana seeps into his body. The process is slow and meditative, requiring immense concentration. Sam knows he needs at least 10,000 mana to utilize a D-rank Gem, and this will take weeks of dedicated effort.
With each passing day, Sam's mana pool grows, though the progress is painstakingly gradual. He maintains his daily routine, balancing his time between mana absorption, fine-tuning the Arkham Asylum simulation, and handling the business side of his newfound success.
As the weeks tick by, Sam's determination never wavers. He is acutely aware that this is a crucial step in his journey as a developer. The prospect of unlocking a D-rank Gem and the possibilities it presents fuels his drive. He envisions the more advanced simulations he can create, the enhanced abilities he can extract, and the even greater impact he can have on the Hunters who utilize his work.
Sitting cross-legged on the floor, Sam focuses intently on the Simulation Gem, feeling the mana flow steadily into his being. With each passing day, his mana pool grows, and he inches closer to his goal of 10,000 mana.
Sam's eyes widened as his phone buzzed with a notification. He tapped the screen and read Gail's message - the Batman: Arkham Asylum simulation he had poured his heart into was now available in other cities.
A proud grin spread across his face. After weeks of meticulous fine-tuning and mana-fueled development, his creation was finally reaching a broader audience. He couldn't wait to see how Hunters in other regions would react to the immersive experience he had crafted.

Spinel City is renowned for its striking gothic architecture, characterized by towering spires, intricate stone carvings, and shadowy alleyways that evoke a sense of mystery and allure. The city's unique aesthetic is beautifully illuminated at night, casting enchanting shadows that dance across the cobblestone streets.
Spinel City truly comes alive after sunset; its vibrant nightlife pulses with energy and excitement, attracting residents and visitors alike. The streets are lined with a captivating array of entertainment establishments, from cozy, candlelit wine bars and bohemian cafes to lively nightclubs pulsating with music. These venues offer an eclectic mix of experiences, catering to diverse tastes and preferences.
In Spinel City, the nocturnal atmosphere fosters a sense of community and adventure, ensuring that there is always something new to discover, no matter the hour. The city genuinely never sleeps, as laughter, music, and spirited conversations echo through the night.
A man in his apartment was sitting in front of his computer.
"Batman Arkham Asylum? What kind of newbie made this?" he muttered, his tone dripping with disdain. He leaned forward, brow furrowed, as he scrutinized the game displayed before him.
Adder Foley, a developer in Spinel City, leaned back in his chair, eyes narrowed as he stared at the computer screen. His dark, shoulder-length hair was slightly disheveled, framing his pale, angular face. A mischievous smirk played on his lips, revealing a glimpse of sharp teeth.
Adder's loose-fitting lavender shirt and dark pants gave him a casual, comfortable appearance, but his posture exuded a confident, almost arrogant air. He drummed his fingers on the desk, purple-bagged eyes fixed on the screen.
Adder Foley's brow furrowed deeper as he scrutinized the Batman: Arkham Asylum simulation, his once-popular creation now overshadowed by this newcomer. He leaned back in his chair, fingers drumming against the desk as a tinge of frustration seeped into his expression.
"Hmph, so this is what's got everyone so worked up," he muttered, his sharp eyes scanning the screen. "Looks like some rookie dev's poor attempt in making something new."
Adder couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. Just a few days ago, his own simulation had been in the top 10 charts, a testament to his skill and hard work. But now, this newcomer had stolen the spotlight, and Adder was determined to see what all the fuss was about.
With a few keystrokes, he launched the simulation, his gaze narrowing as the familiar Arkham Asylum environment unfolded before him. "Let's see what you've got, newbie," he murmured, his fingers flexing in anticipation.
