Very well made game, but I found the gameplay loop underwhelming. It largely functions as a text based have with some nice graphics on top of it. The core of the game is figuring out what types of games work well with different styles. Then it increasingly gets more complicated as you need to choose other selections to mix in and try not to get anything wrong. I played for the entire duration of a 3 hour flight and by the end the have just felt very repetitive and unfulfilling.

Game is awesome I've been playing for 2 years now and it's great but I'm reviewing because of a major bug some people have experienced. So basically when you make a new save it sticks you in the loading screen forever, making it impossible to make a new save. The solution to that is to simply delete and reinstall the game. Don't know if that's what fixes it or the fact that all your saves are wiped but it works so it's fine. I hope Greenheart fixes this because wiping your saves is not the best.

I love trying out all the different combinations to figure out what works well together and what areas need focus on each! I did get softlocked at one point after hiring only one employee and starting development on a medium game. I didn't have enough staff to assign tasks, and couldn't leave that screen. It would be nice to have been warned about that, or have it require 3 staff in order to even select it.
