Im kinda confused what Adventure genre stands for

5 Upvotes

In a first stance i thought Adventure games were or platformer games like Mario and Crash, or Exploration games like Zelda, but then i saw the slider suggestions and look that its heavily-focused in story and almost none in gameplay, even more than RPGs

is It actually refers just to Graphic Adventures / Point n Click games then?

Are the guides wrong?

3 Upvotes

I made a horror adventure pc game with 100% on the sound slider even though the guides say sound isn't important. It scored three 10s and a 9. Am I missing something?

Workshop mods doesn't work

1 Upvotes

I have a few mods installed, mainly the ones for hints and percentages. In the in-game mods menu, they appear to be installed correctly, but there are no changes when I actually play. Iโ€™ve tried everything from manually deleting all save files to reinstalling the game on the C: drive (I previously had it on a different drive used for games), but it still isn't working.

Sorry for don't flair correctly the post but the only flair i see is "flex/achievement unlocked" and is not related to that

Looking for mods to play with this game :)

7 Upvotes

Hi! Returning player here. I really loved the game back in high school and rediscovered it again as I turn 30 (yep im old). Just wanna know what mods do you use to play with the game since there are new mods but also some really old ones from 2010s. Just wanna know where to start.

ALSO, just saw this video and I'm really curious what mods he used. If anyone could help it'd be much appreciated.

You can totally get 10/10 Early Game

19 Upvotes

So yeah, it is possible.

It was my 8th game, right before moving to a small office, and I got a new High Score on games 5 through 8, so it was the first one after the one with a guaranteed FS of 10. All it takes are good coin flips.

The overlay is because I have the console enabled.

How do you imagine the dual-genres in the game?

5 Upvotes

I usually like to looking for examples to picture what those genres matches would be like

For example

Strategy-Action = RTS

Strategy-Simutation = 4X like Civ or the Paradox Games

Action-RPG = Fallout, Witcher, current FFs

Casual-RPG = Pokemon

But theres some matches that i didnt find out yet how to imagine, like Action-Simulation, what irl game you think could be there?

Issues with the game and how it renders

As you can see, the design and technology bubbles are clipping into the rectangle and I've tried EVERYTHING to fix it and i can't seem to figure it out. Please help

I'm on a laptop, screen resolution 2560x 1600 16:10 (this might cause it because it's not 16:9 but even forcing 16:9 doesn't work).

I'm making a new game inspired by Game Dev Tycoon. What would you like to see improved?

47 Upvotes

Hi, I've been a long time fan of GDT but there are a few things that frustrate me, namely that creativity is punished, because sliders have fixed optimal positions, and the fact that the market is barely simulated.

So for a year I've been developing a kind of spiritual sequel which separates creativity from execution, adds a living market and competitors, and other cool stuff such as game covers.

What are the things you would like improved?

Building an offline financial management tycoon โ€” hereโ€™s what I overhauled this month - Hero Investor PC

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

When you have a Steam page live without a public demo yet, itโ€™s easy for people to wonder if a project went quiet. As a solo dev, I wanted to share an open update on where **Hero Investor PC** stands and what I've been building behind the scenes.

Rather than rushing out an unstable build, I've spent the last several weeks tearing down and rebuilding our core economy and UI systems:

* **Simulating ETF Capital Flows:** Rebuilt the ETF engine so quarterly performance actually tracks NPC money entering/exiting the fund alongside market swings.

* **25-Tier CEO Career Ladder:** Added career milestones from first-time founder to corporate titan.

* **Property Market (97 Assets):** Categorized into Domestic and International portfolios with real net yield and volatility stats on every asset card.

* **Research Tree Re-architecture:** Split the progression tree into 5 clear disciplines.

* **100+ Polish & QoL fixes:** Fixed fractional calculation bugs on banking, eliminated UI flashing during high-volume trading, and smoothed out data tables.

Building a tycoon game with this many moving financial variables has been a huge challenge, but building it as a **deep, fully offline single-player management sim** makes getting the balance and pacing right 100% worth it.

---

If you'd like to follow development or support the project:

๐Ÿ‘‰ **[Wishlist Hero Investor on Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/5062780/Hero_Investor/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=devlog_update)\*\*

Would love any feedback on the feature set or how you approach balancing large data-heavy simulation UIs!

Just noticed Netflix version is gone

17 Upvotes

I'm a bit sad, Netflix version was so much fun, I really enjoyed the new features. It was probaly the closest to an Game Dev Tycoon 2. My only problem with it was the optimizing, game ran kinda bad because of the Netflix system needing you always connected and checking if you had an signature. It would really be great to have this game without this lame system, if they were to release it I would pay for it
