This developer diary will be mirrored on the Movie Maven Tycoon subreddit.
Movie Maven: A Tycoon Game has been under active development for close to a year and a half. It is a passion project from a small group of coders and artists who have turned this endeavor into a labor of love. The idea of a detailed management game for a movie studio is not new, and the landscape is littered with failed projects and aborted ideas. We wanted to create a project that was both fun and realistic in scope.
While we have assembled a game that is rich in features, it will take a dedicated base of fans and players to help us balance Movie Maven and make it fun. To participate in the upcoming beta, join our subreddit and follow the directions to reach out discord. As we progress through our development diaries (and the beta) we will highlight all the features we have been working on, and the ideas that underpin them. They will include:
- Actors And Directors
- Screenplays and Rewrites
- Making a Movie
- Research and Insights
- Building a Distribution Network
- Actor Assignments
- Events & Staffing
- Box Office and Theater Tracking
We are extremely excited about this project and we know many of you are as well. We look forward to sharing what we have built and what we plan to add after our launch.
