Greetings, fellow game tycoons! It's been another productive week here at City Game Studio, and I'm excited to share the latest developments with you.

Bug Fixes for a Smoother Gameplay Experience

First and foremost, let's talk about bug fixes. I encountered a pesky localization issue that was affecting the display of game genres. This made it challenging for players to navigate and understand the intricacies of their games. We've also squashed a particularly annoying bug related to the automatic hiring and assignment of staff. Both of these issues have now been successfully addressed, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable gaming experience.

A Visual Upgrade: Dynamic Backgrounds

But that's not all! For quite some time, I've had my eye on improving the game's background. You may have noticed that both the world map and the studio scenes shared the same background, albeit on different layers. This setup led to performance hiccups and visual inconsistencies. To tackle this, I've created an entirely new background that's identical for both scenes. Not only does this streamline rendering by only requiring a single instance, but it's also animated and adapts its color palette according to the contextwhether you're managing your studio or plotting your global gaming domination.

What Lies Ahead

As I move forward, the agenda for next week includes a revamp of the In-App purchase panel. This enhancement aims to provide you with a smoother and more convenient experience when making in-game purchases. Thank you for being a part of the City Game Studio community. Your feedback and support drive these improvements, and together, we're crafting the ultimate gaming empire! Stay tuned for more exciting updates, and thank you for your continued support. Together, we'll build the ultimate gaming empire! Xavier aka 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
