Game Dev Tycoon DLC Ideas

Game Dev Tycoon ideas
#1

Dear Greenheart Games.
I have been playing Game Dev Tycoon almost for more hours that i have Skyrim, and i’m feeling a little bit bored with the vanilla game since there are no mods and the patches are only small things. Small but fun things.
I have a few ideas for a DLC for Game Dev Tycoon since i wouldn’t mind buying more to support you more.

My Ideas:
Game Dev Tycoon: Console Wars
Adds the ability to create portable gaming devices
Adds the ability to keep a console alive by making a lot of hit games on it and also edits the market share (e.g if you make a 10/10 game you can make the market share go up a little bit. Or if you make a 1/10 game with ridiculous hype you can make the market share go down a smidge. but Only a Smidge.
Adds extra things you can add on your console (e.g Grid Compatibility or Backwards Compatibility) and gives you the choice of what type of disc or cartridge you want to have.
You can have higher graphics capabilitys on more powerful consoles, but for consoles like the GS, you cant have 3D graphics V7

Also portable systems have undergone something big and deserve something for that.
3GS: built in stereoscopic 3D large games Goes to market share bottom but is brought up to 4th after about 6 months.
VitaPS: large games.

Gtari Jagwire: Offers 2D graphics V4 and less, and 3D graphics V1.

Another DLC idea is starting at any year

1982 (start year)
all the way to 2020 (end year)

Yep, this would keep you hooked to it longer. (Im already hooked and will play over and over, its just that fun). The ability to develop and release your own hardware would be cool.

Reminds me of “Rockstar Ate My Hamster” on the Amiga.

Also, i think you should be able to add what DEGI rating bit you get (e.g violence, Drug use etc) and if you add too much, it will create controversy.

and i think you should be able to put other game developers out of business

What I would like to see in a future DLC (not just patches/updates):

  • Grid compatibility as a feature when developing games. Alternatively an option to only have digital distribution of games.
  • The ability to control the Grid platform. Set your own prices on Grid and have sales that increases copies sold (like on Steam) in order to prolong the life of the titles of your choice. The ability to put other developers’ games on your platform could also be an option.
  • Be able to start up multiple companies.
    – Alternatively have the ability to start up a new studio with some additional capital so that you have one main studio that you run and the others being autonomous with the option to choose what kinds of games/features the other studios should concentrate on developing.
  • MORE TOPICS! Beat 'em Up and FPS are some given genres that could be added.
  • MORE RESEARCH OPTIONS! The Research and Design Department needs more options. So does the Hardware Department.
    – Social media research expansion: the possibility of a Youtube-esk channel could be something to add.
  • The ability to build additional wings of your office building for your departments. Kind of like in the same vein as Theme Hospital.
  • Implement a fan appreciation day so that you can have fan tours of your studio. This could increase fans/hype/buzz about titles and your company.
  • More hiring options. Be able to see what kind of staff you can hire without you having to fire someone before looking for new applicants if all your dev positions are already filled.
    – Also adding the possibility of applicants being better than your existing staff regardless of how much you’ve already trained them, alternatively hire from other studios. At a price of course.

That’s about it :smiley:
