Hey, Another really small update for the default version of City Game Studio. This time it is a fresh build of City Game Studio without any delta build. It leads to a faster and a more stable verson.

Steam beta branch

Meanwhile, I'm still working on the upcoming version, which is the v1.0. The more I work on it, the more I keep adding new features. Feel free to try it out already on the unstable steam branch. The unstable Steam branch is the bleeding edge version of City Game Studio. If you want to play the very latest version of the game, follow these steps:

• Go to your Steam Library
• Right-click on City Game Studio and select "Properties"
• Go to the tab marked "Betas"
• In the drop-down box, select "unstable"
• Wait for the game to finish updating, you should see the branch name listed after the game name.

Saves

Most of the time, the save from your main game will work in the Beta Branch. But a beta branch save won't work on the main branch unless those branches are synced.

v1.0

While I plan to release the v1.0 in few weeks I think City Game Studio will remain in Early Access for a couple of months. There are a lot of marketing materials to produce, but I'm running out of time and won't be able to produce everything by the end of April. What does it mean exactly? The v1.0 is still planned for end of april, but the v1.1 will be delayed a bit (I'm gonna try to make another bet August 2021). Thank you for reading Regards Binogure

City Game Studio is a sandbox type management game.

January 1975, you have created your video game company. You are renting a tight place that allows you to develop your first game. Quickly, your games are successful and you already have to move, but it is up to you to cross the city to pick up your next local. In the blink of an eye you are hiring artists to improve the visual aspect of your games. Next came developers and then testers. But a problem remains, even if your games are brilliants, you don't have enough fans to self-publish a big game to make your studio profitable. You will have to turn to video game editors who will carve out the lion's share. Combinating successes is the only way of getting rid of the publishers. Furthermore you will be able to publish your own publishing contracts. Then you will then be ready to dominate the market and buy back your competitors.

Each game is unique

Maps and studios are procedurally generated. Combined with random events and customizable studios, you will rediscover the game with each new game.

Assign the best studio

Browse the cities and choose the location of your next studio. As my uncle said "we do not hire new talents with vinegar !"

Furnish your studios carefully

Everyone is not a studio designer, yet every piece of furniture has its place in your studio, and can have an influence on the history of your company.

Publish, hire, repeat

Each game is unique, but over time new generations of consoles come out. You cannot create a bestseller alone. You have to hire new talents that will help you creating the perfect game

Game development

The development of the game is broadcast on twitch using the channel binogure.
