GDT was an inspiration

Hi everybody. Game dev Tycoon is a great game, played it over and over. It has inspired me to start developing a tycoon game of my own. It is in beginning stages and could use help from everyone.
Here is a lin so you can contribute, and on the page is information how you can be a part of the game by contributing materials instead of money. Everyone who contributes gets money :smile:

Thank you all, and thank you GreenHeart games for the inspiration and a great game.

I don’t know if advertising is barred on this forum, but it’s a questionable thing to do. Many forums ban it. Those that tolerate it do so cautiously. That means your post starts off on the wrong foot. Given your additional lack of posting history, it kind of looks like you made an account entirely for the purpose of extracting money from us. These are bad circumstances for making a pitch.

You have some copy-editing issues as well. You have a few typos in this post (lin), inconsistent capitalization, and a missing word (is information on how you). In the Kickstarter page you misuse the word their. Combine these with the fact that you ask for both a programmer and a graphics designer, it calls into question your competencies. If you wouldn’t be writing it, drawing it, or coding it, which part of the game will you be dedicating yourself to? Even exceptional ideas rarely get bought. What people are willing to pay for is skills. That often requires proving you have the skills before asking for a dime. All you’ve shown here is that you have an idea and some chutzpah.

Even if the idea got off the ground, I wouldn’t support this. Part of the reason I play Tycoon games in the first place is because the world seems too fixated on destruction as it is. All that energy could be turned to construction instead. Tycoon games give me hope by reminding me that most people build their lives on productive endeavors. Agency Tycoon is less like Game Dev Tycoon and more like Warmachine Tycoon. Is that what people play this kind of game to build? You have potential message issues. Ever played Undertale?

P.S. Using actual logos and selling a very pricy spy kit as the top perk seems like it could draw the wrong kind of attention. Check this out: http://www.sjgames.com/SS/
