How to get a Hit Title at Start

Game Dev Tycoon
#1

Hello

At first english isnt my native language so there might be problems with understanding and grammer . I tried to read some articles at the offical wiki, but all i can see is numbers, formulars, slide bars and no clue at all how to get a good knowledge about how i fix those slide bars to have a decent result at the end.

Id like to see examples on pictures so i can see through all that formular stuff, numbers and so on. So to make this more easy for others that maybe have the same problem with understanding the game, i have landed after some while a Hit on the market and done afterwards screenshots , so you can try it with the same engine and stuff to land on market or give me some hints for getting better.

Thanks in advance and here are the screenshots.

If you dont know what kind of Employee you are looking for when you move to the 2nd office here is a hint for you then.

Action, Simulations and Strategy are tech orientated
Adventure and RPG ( Casual later ) are design orientated

Your first employee should be a mixed one ( check for game demo ) . Here it depends on how you skill your character, like if you go for a balanced training ( 50-50 points in tech and design -> recommend for Graphic spec ) your employee should be 40% in design and 60% in tech. This is recommend for the later spec Level Design that you use alot.

If your company grows more a specialist in programming isnt that bad ( algorithm stuff ). 20% design and 80% tech
