Implementations

• Added more information to the CPU product design workflow. More improvements on the way. Now, there is a bit more (not too much) feedback about what you can expect from the CPU you are designing.
  
• Implemented the first pass of the sales performance UI. You can now view how well your product is performing Globally, Regional and Local. More will be added soon to this window as well as charts and more sales evaluation tools.
  
• Slight improvements overall to the UI. This will be an ongoing process
  
• Adjusted some AI behavior (company & customers) with more refinement. This will also be an ongoing process.
  
• Underlying code refinements were made for upcoming content implementations as a result of the recent additions, etc..
  
  
  Bug Fixes
  
  
• Fixed a bug when placing chairs, they would show up one floor level up from the current set level.

Hello Tech Tycoons,

We are nearing the first monthly update which is expected to release this weekend. As stated in the new road map, we have the following updates planned.

• CPU product creation process improvements - Generally improving the options available to the player to manage a product after release. This generally includes the first pass which will be present in the way of sales information. We have listed more improvements on this on the roadmap for the month of May.
  
• UI improvements - General improvements to the UI across the board.
  
• (AI) Company behavior polishing
  
• (AI) Customer behavior polishing
  

There are far more upcoming updates in the way of UI polish and improvements. As mentioned previously, a huge part of the focus is on getting the underlying functionality polished first, and then the overall aesthetics, etc..

The product creation improvements will aim to provide better feedback to you about the choices you've made in product design. This is phase 1 of those improvements and I look forward to feedback on these going forward. The process of creating a product is also a work in progress and there will be improvements made here as well.

In addition, we wanted to focus on the AI and making steady improvements there. We are not yet where we want to be on this, but we are headed in the right direction.

I will post another update when 1.7 is released to the public.

It has been an interesting journey through our release to Early Access up to this point, and one not without a few bumps in the road. However, we have steadied the ship a bit and are moving forward and making significant progress toward the end goal of having a complete gameplay experience. Thanks to everyone who has joined us on this journey.

As promised, we have update the website to showcase our update schedule for Early Access. Our goal is to remain as transparent as possible throughout development and beyond. At the moment, we have fixed many bugs, added tutorials and key gameplay functionality that improves the overall experience. We will continue to put our greatest effort into getting the game to a place where we have always intended.



The Early Access schedule is broken down into quarters of 2019. We will take the approach of adding to the schedule as we get closer to the end of a quarter. So, for now you will see our schedule for quarter 2, 2019. Some time in May or June, we will update the schedule again with quarter 3 details.

Tutorial #4 part 1 added
As promised, we have now updated the game with another tutorial to help you get started learning and playing the game.

Game Additions & Bug fixes

• Added tutorial #4 - Product Creation Part 1
  
• Fixed a bug where some tutorials would not load. Some experienced an issue where there was infinite loading.
  
• Fixed some tutorial UI issues
  
• UI popups should not load anymore for some when starting a new game. (if you still see this issue, please let us know).
  
• Fixed a bug where in tutorial #3, you could open the main menu. This should be disabled during the tutorials. The way to go back to the main menu will be the "exit tutorial" option at the very top of the screen going forward only.
  
• Fixed some other minor bugs.
  

As mentioned in the last update, we will be adding many more tutorials over time to cover the other aspects of the game. However, we do intend to get Part 2 of the Product Management tutorial up as soon as possible.

In the next two weeks, we will be updating our Early Access development schedule and getting it up on our website http://techexecutivetycoon.com. This schedule will attempt to highlight the plans for the upcoming weeks and months.
