Our take on GamersGoMakers
Game development is built around matching a title's genre with suitable components from 15×4 game-part options, with reviews offering guidance for later projects in the same genre.
What is GamersGoMakers?
Start a game company in 1980, when game creation is limited to basic sound and simple graphics.
Develop games by matching genres with game components, then use reviews to guide later projects in the same genre. Sales respond to trends, platform market share and rival performance. The game spans studio operations as well as development: hire and train employees, expand and equip offices, research technologies, and choose a role such as developer, designer, producer, artist or composer. Progress through 31 game genres, with additional genres and subgenres becoming available over time.
Projects can include patches, add-ons, sequels and editions for other platforms. A simulated global market includes hundreds of competing companies. Optional start years are 1990 and 2000, with three difficulty levels.
