Eggy Party

Eggy Party is a casual competitive battle royale game. The player is represented as a sphere-shaped character called "Eggy". The game uses parkour as the core gameplay element and features three different party round types: "Survival Party", "Race Party", and "Score Party". Players are scored on survival time or time to reach the finish line.

In the "Classic Mode", there are a total of 32 players and four rounds. The first players to reach the end point, enter the next round and the last players are eliminated. Players will receive items to hinder their game progress, thus balancing the gap between players. During the game, players can control the Eggy to perform basic operations such as moving and jumping.

Eggy Party was developed by NetEase. The company's CEO, Ding Lei, said the project would be in operation for at least ten years. During development, the development team believed that the creation and design of user-generated content should be the focus of the game, and the team's core members have experience in developing such content. Players participated in the development and community building of the game by designing original maps.

Game developer Hu Lan believes that this type of map-building function is the key to the game's success, provides strong support for the number of players, enhances the social attributes of the game, and ensures player stickiness. Game developer member Kwan believes that the community creators of the game are significant for the game's development, and the creativity of players as creators will promote community development. NetEase Games held the first "Creator Conference" of Eggy Party in June 2023 and invited its original map creators to participate.

The gaming news website GameLook said that Eggy Party had beautiful character design, strong physical feedback technology, and an aesthetically pleasing art style, and had occupied a part of the market among the "Generation Z" user group. In another commentary article, the website pointed out that the emergence of Eggy Party had supported the development of user-generated content in mainland China's games, promoted the development of related technologies, and provided experience for the research and development of related products. Commentators Guo Su and Yan Jinyan from Game Grape said that the gameplay is popular and has a widespread audience. At the same time, they also praised the game project team's technical accumulation and research and development in the game's physics engine.

The two editors reflected on the game's social platform development strategy and believed that such a platform could increase players' interest in the game and produce a unique culture. Yan Jinyan said in another commentary article that NetEase's offline features for map creators were successful, and the game's success depended on the popularity and development of user-generated content. Such activities promote the quality of the game and encourage participants in social activities to gain new friendships.
