City Game Studio News

Hi everyone!

A quick update today, with some bonus info about what's coming!

[h3]Bug Fixes[/h3]
Fixed a crash that occurred when buying out a competitor. Let's just say the game wasn't too fond of hostile takeovers!

[h3]Game Name Generator[/h3]
Added two new variations to the generator. Nothing fancy, but it should give you a bit more diversity in your titles.

[h3]Known Issues[/h3]
There's currently a small issue with online games: the number of units sold includes retention figures, which isn't really what we want. I'm working on it!

[h3]What's Coming Next[/h3]
For those wondering what's cooking, here's the plan for March/April 2025:
- I'm reworking studio furnishing. You'll be able to create templates and copy/paste them from one studio to another. No more setting everything up from scratch every time!
- Consoles will become cheaper to produce the more you sell. Just like in real life!

That's all for today! As usual, if you find any other bugs, don't hesitate to let me know.

Have a great gaming session!

Hey folks !

My other game, Fortune Avenue, just got a major update! For those who haven't heard about it yet, imagine Monopoly reinvented with modern twists that keep the game fresh and exciting. You can take planes to zip across the board, escape melting ice floes, vote on game-changing rules every 12 rolls, and even organize the World Cup to multiply your hotel's rent tenfold!

As someone who loves management games (like you all!), I designed Fortune Avenue to be deeply strategic while keeping that fun party game spirit. Instead of a boring jail, you might find yourself on a luxury cruise. And if you're falling behind, watch out for the helicopter that chases down the poorest players!

The new update brings tons of improvements and new features that make the game even more enjoyable. Plus, it's very affordable at just $2.99 - less than a cup of coffee! If you enjoy City Game Studio's mix of strategy and management, I think you'll have a blast with Fortune Avenue too.
Come try it out and let me know what you think! I'm always around to chat and improve both games based on your feedback.

Take care,
Xavier aka Binogure

P.S. There's also a free demo available if you want to give it a test drive first!

Hi everyone!

Quick update to fix two rather... interesting bugs!

[h3]Bug Fixes[/h3]
The studio director got his knuckles rapped. He wasn't always respecting exclusivity contracts and was making games for other console manufacturers. Let's say he was taking a bit too much liberty with contracts! That's now fixed.

And finally, some of your employees were going on vacation... and never coming back! The worst part is that you kept paying them. It was like permanent paid vacation. Nice for them, not so much for your wallet! That's fixed too.

That's all for today! As usual, if you find any other bugs, don't hesitate to let me know.

Have a great gaming session!

Hi everyone!

A quick update today. Nothing crazy, but a few fixes that should improve your gaming experience!

[h3]Bug Fixes[/h3]
Well, sometimes the simplest things can cause issues. For instance, when Steam wasn't detected and you were using the dark theme, you couldn't read the text. It was kind of like playing with your eyes closed, not very practical! That's fixed now.

For those who were frantically clicking the exit button (we all know it happens when a game stops responding), well now the game actually listens to you and really closes. Promise!

The studio director has also learned to count. He wasn't always using the platform with the largest market share. Now he can do his math properly!

[h3]Translations[/h3]
A big thank you to MasterStudioCZ who improved both Czech and English translations. Steam achievements are now also available in Czech!

That's all for today! As usual, if you find any other bugs, don't hesitate to let me know.

Have a great gaming session!
