Tech Executive Tycoon News

Hi everyone!

We hope all is well with you and your family and friends. The world is in an interesting place these days, but being an optimist and one of positivity, I hope that you all are okay and hanging in there!

In regard to the matter at hand, we have been working diligently on the latest update to early release (Quarter II's update). We are making great progress, but as usual testing and polish are supremely important and we have a bit more work to do in that department.

With that said, a lot of the polish and quality of life aspects of the game are lacking. Being in the current state of development that we are in, this is currently expected. However, once we have all features in the game, the bulk of our efforts will shift toward polishing and bug smashing on a much grander scale.

Thanks for your patience as always as we know it has been a journey of a lot of required patience. We hope to make the wait worth it. Thanks again and happy gaming!

• Fixed another game breaking bug where it would cause the game to freeze and close to desktop.
  

We will continue to work on v1.9.x quality of life improvements and publish the roadmap update for Quarter II

[h2]Bug Fix[/h2]

• Fixed critical game freezing bug when opening the data details window
  

[h2]Features added[/h2]

• Notification system - We have added the foundation of our notification system (1st pass). Now when certain events happen throughout the game, you will have a notification ticker at the top of the screen. We will continue to polish this feature to include management options.
  
• Company Data system - We have completed a second aggressive pass on the company data system. Now storage items have gameplay added and will no longer serve as just decoration. Each item will be capable of storing data for one of five different categories which have gameplay implications.
  
  1. Customer data – This is your customers data and personal information that they provide to you which will have huge game-play ramifications. From how well you protect that data to how you use it to identify other sales opportunities, etc..
     
  2. Financial data – This is your company’s financial records which also have huge ramifications. Investors review this information in order to make educated decisions about buying stock in your company. Additionally, this is used by your company for many other reasons. How well you manage and protect this data will be obviously important.
     
  3. Employee data – Like customer data, your employees share a lot of personal details about themselves with your company. Storing and protecting that data is equally as important as the others. In addition, this is how you manage your employees effectively–by knowing as much as possible about them which will allow your HR personnel to effectively provide services and cater to them over time.
     
  4. Legal data – All legal docs whether signed by customers using your services or used by your own lawyers for the goal of defending you in court; you will have to store and protect this information as well.
     
  5. Operations data – All documents and information related to your daily operations will be crucial to store and maintain. Losing these docs can set you back on research and many other aspect of your business.
     
• Budget polishing - We run a second pass on the budget UI. You will now have more details related to your budget available to you to review.
  

Updates pushed to the next release

• Product management 2nd pass
  
• Product data and reporting 2nd pass
