Chapter 233 – Episode 233
If (Input. GetButtonDown(“Jump”) && Grounded)…
I’ve felt this since I learned programming languages, but this place is really new.
There is no time to be bored. Very.
I understand why one of the characteristics of a game developer is that there is no repetitive life. The strange thing is, even though I searched on the Internet and copied it, if there was a problem with execution, I would have a mental breakdown.
I hear that sometimes, among developers, there are people who leave it to God not only that bugs do not occur, but even that the coding works. It’s worth it.
“Oh, what is this? Is this the bullet-dodging jumping mini-game I saw a lot in the past? Holy moly, guacamole!”
When I went to work, I sat in a chair and typed on the keyboard all day.
As I was humming and leisurely, one of the developers passing by showed interest in my work. In the past, he was one of the only people who welcomed me with ease, calling him a golden recruit and blah blah blah. But it’s definitely not that they expect anything from me.
So the name, the name…
“This is Kang Sang-yong, in charge of clients. Hyunwoo, haha.”
“Oh, hello. Mr. Sangyong.”
I’m still not used to it. Just calling each other Mr. So-and-so without any rank.
I guess I may be a person who is good at vertical relationships.
“You might be thinking that I’m out of luck here and won’t go back. If you look closely, there’s a code missing over here. What’s really amazing about this programming is that even if one piece of code is missing, it doesn’t work like hell. Lol.”
“Ah… !”
「Crash, crack, crack!」
I said I would borrow the keyboard for a moment, but I just leisurely tapped my fingers a few times.
The character, who just a moment ago was twisting his joints strangely and unable to move, begins to move normally. Especially in the jumping part, it’s so amazing that it moves the way I want.
Professionals are different. As expected.
“It’s fun, right? “I don’t know how much fun I had when I first made this.”
It feels like I’m not having fun right now.
“Ha, what now… Hmm. Because this also becomes work. A little. Haha.”
A person who seemed the happiest in the world just a moment ago is smiling as if the world is sad. This person is also a bit strange.
No.
They said that all developers are strange people. In particular, it is said that many people who come as ‘game developers’ come because their basic motivation is to like games, so there are a lot of people who are particularly immature. I’m not sure because it’s from this industry.
If you look at Kang Sang-yong, it was exactly that case.
Even during lunchtime on my first day at work, I looked around to see if there was anyone to eat with me. It was Kang Sang-yong who was concentrating on a rhythm game with earphones in his ears while simply eating cup ramen and triangular kimbap.
“Uh, um, I mean, um. If you have some free time, would you like to have a cup of coffee on the rooftop?”
A person who was so confident when explaining something to me.
Kang Sang-yong is so embarrassed that asking me to have a cup of coffee seems like the most difficult task in the world. I got up willingly.
‘There are definitely a lot of introverted people among game developers. ‘Hmm.’
Shin Nae-bin and Song Sang-joong also seem to be active at least at work. Don’t those people actually like to curl up somewhere and sleep when they go out?
“Great. Let’s go.”
Kang Sang-yong and I took the elevator and went up to the rooftop. But unlike yesterday, there were also employees from other companies. Come to think of it, I think the company on the first and second floors was a web novel publishing company.
“Hey! You bastard. Do you know that I entrusted you with the task of asking for such a crappy cover? I didn’t ask you to get a famous artist’s cover for a cheap price. I told you to just find a suitable writer. At least don’t criticize the writer. What is this? As soon as I received the rough cover, the author of the novel was embarrassed and called me directly. “Is this right?”
“… Sorry. However, this is the limit with the budget given by the company.”
“They say that if you don’t think it’s going to work, you have to spend 50,000 or 100,000 won more! I’ve kept my mouth shut all this time and now… !”
Someone was even getting scolded by their boss. Hugely.
Kang Sang-yong, who habitually opened the door only 3 centimeters, quietly closed the door. It was a very natural action.
“Let’s go to the first floor and talk. It’s a smoking area, though. There are not as many people smoking as you might think. Oh, do you smoke?”
“No. “I hung up.”
I got on the elevator again. Even the moment I got on the elevator, I could hear the voice of the person who was scolding me.
A loud shout that asks, “Are you kidding me?”
Be scared. But why does that feel more natural to me?
As she left the company with her head tilted, Kang Sang-yong violently touched her chest.
“After. I just really hate things like this. Even in the military, I received a lot of criticism for various reasons.”
“Oh my…”
“Even if you just look at the results, I’m always fast and accurate. On the outside, I look a little slow, right? So I got criticized even more. That was really unfair. “I’m the type of person who can’t just pretend to say that and ruin the result.”
“There are people like that. People who think that only if the motion is large, the results will be good.”
“There are so many. Just because you overdo the process doesn’t mean you’ll get good results. I felt this in the military, and I also felt it while working as a 6-month experiential intern at a large company. That’s when I thought about it. “I am a person who must work alone unless it is a horizontal company.”
Kang Sang-yong grins.
“As I gained experience in various ways, I became more confident. In fact, there are more people who can’t keep up with my tempo. In fact, the second test evaluation and related client work are almost complete. So, I feel like I have a bit more free time.”
“Omg. Really?”
“Oh, of course I worked 18 hours a day to finish this quickly. Because I’m the type of person who can’t even rest properly if I have something to do.”
It’s really amazing. 18 hours a day? An ordinary person who didn’t even receive a quest reward did something like that? Crazy.
Kang Sang-yong stretches.
“Ugh! Tomorrow, I’ll make the excuse of working from home and rest a bit. I’m going to go back to work the next day and help other people with their work. “It doesn’t suit my personality to take a break just because my work is done.”
“I see.”
I thought he was a surprisingly talkative type.
“…”
“…”
Then I stopped talking.
An uncomfortable silence is coming. Kang Sang-yong opened his mouth again with a face that looked like he couldn’t bear it.
It’s transparent what kind of person he really is.
“Ah… How did we end up saying this? Ah, that’s right! Until yesterday, I was so busy with my work that I couldn’t even say hello properly. I was trying to find the right moment to say this. “Woohyohyohyohohyo!”
Kang Sang-yong looks at me with a strange smile.
“Uh, um. It seems like Sangjoong personally ordered something. He’s not a bad kid. The kid is now 26 years old, and since he has spent his entire life playing games, he is still immature. Because I’m a kid who sees the world like a game.”
In fact, I may be the one living life like a game.
[Objective analysis, A+]
Because there is no other person in real life who can see something like this above a person’s head other than me.
It’s an objective analysis. What would a person like this think about a parachute that suddenly fell?
“I like Song Sang-joong.”
“Omg? Really? How can that be? That’s amazing. “I guess you have a really nice personality?”
“That’s not it.”
“Ah.”
“Because it was the only thing they gave me to do. “I was suffocating because I was doing nothing and was being lazy.”
“Oh, I see. That might be possible. I didn’t think of that. I am sorry. “I didn’t really intend to do that.”
I definitely understand why the talent for objective analysis is high.
I accept this kind of thing immediately and calmly. That wasn’t particularly surprising. If Han Ae-bom and Oh Han-am’s talent for objective analysis can be seen, they would both be at least SS or higher.
“It’s like a parachute that suddenly fell. In that sense, what did you think, Sangyong? “When you first saw me?”
“Hmm.”
“You can be honest.”
Kang Sang-yong smiled and waved his hand, feeling awkward.
“I’m not lying, me either. Let’s see. I didn’t think anything of Hyunwoo when he first suddenly came in as a new employee. I’m, well, a really selfish person. So honestly, I don’t really care whether the parachute comes in or not. I’m just being careful not to cause any harm to myself. And what’s wrong with parachutes coming in? “When you live in this world, things like this and things like that happen.”
I felt this way while listening to Kang Sang-yong’s words.
This person is a person who eats well and lives well no matter what he does. He was a person who there was nothing wrong with becoming friends with.
“If there is anything that gets stuck, can I come and often ask?”
“Hmm. If I’m not busy, I can kindly teach you. “I have a very sensitive personality when I’m busy.”
“I will take care of that appropriately.”
Kang Sang-yong smiled and nodded his head.
“Is that so? “It wouldn’t be a bad idea for me to review the parts I may have forgotten while Hyunwoo taught me.”
It was a truly great mind.
Although this company is full of unique people, they all have good skills. How did Na Chang-yeon select only these employees? Isn’t selecting employees actually a matter of luck and failure?
Even though I tilted my head, I had no choice but to go back to my seat and type hard on the keyboard.
It felt like time was passing 10 times faster than usual.
One day, two days, three days… Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
* * *
Glimpse, glance.
Song Sang-joong, a system programmer who was resolving a GIF overlap error, kept looking at Kim Hyun-woo’s seat without realizing it. Then he slapped himself in the face.
Mate!
‘Oh, fuck. I’m too busy taking care of my own things right now. Why do you keep worrying about others?’
I haven’t been able to go home for three days already.
This may have been because the schedule was so tight, but more than that, the tempo of the work slowed down as I was paying attention to Kim Hyun-woo.
“Ta-da-da-dak, ta-da-dak!”
If you look around.
Except for himself, everyone was going about their business with a calm expression. Song Sang-joong found that so fascinating. Does everyone have an invisible wall?
New person. How can you not feel anything when a parachute falls from the sky?
Every time I see it, my stomach boils. If you just ignore that, shouldn’t you feel like everything you’ve achieved so far is being ignored?
‘Those people probably wouldn’t mind if a bomb exploded next to them.’
I mutter this to myself and look at the calendar.
The second test evaluation day, circled in red, is getting closer. Since he is in charge of combat, he must stand out.
‘Fuck.’
While he was becoming more and more anxious, Kim Hyun-woo woke up as soon at 6 p.M.
Song Sang-jung’s eyebrows furrowed.
‘Are you leaving work early again?’
Even though the task he gave was not that difficult. If he wanted to do everything from scratch on his own, he basically couldn’t ignore the time it would take.
It would take a considerable amount of time to search on the Internet and solve the stuck parts one by one using Stackflow.
It’s already been three days. I left work early every day.
It may be that he works at home, but it was impossible for him to understand, as his work efficiency drops by 10% when he goes home.
‘Are you saying you’re just looking at me funny now? I thought I wouldn’t be able to touch someone with the CEO’s power. Okay, let’s see.’
Just try not to complete all the assignments given in a week.
I even warned you in advance that I was going. I’m going to put a perfect double-barrel in your ear.
… When Song Sang-joong, who promised to do this, faced the next day while urgently tapping on the keyboard.
“I made it here.”
Song Sang-joong’s eyes widened as he looked at the USB that Kim Hyun-woo held out.
What? Already?
