OOPS, 10 seconds at the end got cutt off ;( im sorry. Cut Off: Offer suggestions in comments for a chance to be named an employee in game. Also to have a good day.
Having people sneak in snacks or have them sneak into the theatre and having to catch them would be a great mechanic that I've not seen in a sim game. Also, checking I.D. for rated R movies could add some "Papers Please" aspects to the game.
Being able to upgrade your Seats in the theater so like you could have a comfort system you could start with metal chairs and then in the end you have recliners and there comfort goes up with each one
I love this idea and I see a lot of potential for it! I thought of a few things you could add: - Buttered Popcorn Option. (Can be purchased as an add-on). - Party Rooms/rentable rooms for customers. (It could just be another thing customers could buy, or an entire system where you'd have to bring in food and check-in on them party guests from time to time). - Swap the order of cash in the register. (I.e. one's on the right going to the left in sequential value).
Few ideas i think would be fun and easy to make -Shoplifters -expandable theater and leveling system -actual movie rooms with watchable movie (even it's a silly little thing you guys record on the spot) This has lots of potential and I wishlisted! Will get on release :))
Ahhh, so we already have movie rooms, just need to finish them with actual clips. The player will be able to buy movie licenses and chose what movie for what theater! Theater expansions and leveling is a MUST!
as someone who has had a friend work at a cinema before i think you should add something where every day a new selection of movies is showing and every now and then a kid comes in with a ticket for a movie that is above their age and you have to turn them away or allow them in. similarly adding a system to check ids for movies
You could add a unique mechanic which is the player enter the room with special camera to check if anyone recording the movie to upload it to pirate websites. It can be something special for the new movies only
First of all, I want to say that I really like the idea of this game. I played Havoc a lot (I'm MariscoXD) and I see great potential in it! To make the game more similar to a theater experience, the next step could be implementing a movie system. One idea would be to have different values or attributes for movies, such as "What is the age rating for this movie?" or "Check if it's not a child in disguise," for example. To make the mechanic more unique, you could include a system where you observe people watching the movie. For instance, it could analyze whether the audience is behaving inappropriately-someone recording the movie, using their phone during the movie, smoking in the theater, talking loudly, or even a couple kissing inappropriately during the session.
I have a suggestion: you could make the item pickups similar to that of crime scene cleaner when picking up small amounts of trash. You multi select different pieces, and you can pick up all the selected pieces at once, instead of each piece individually
You should add some people who try to sneak into the movie theater without buying a ticket or people who try to sneak in their own snacks. Also you should add a small section with a few arcade games and claw machines.
I see a lot of potential in this. However, i do want to warn you that this style of game is incredibly oversaturated rn. I do enjoy games like this, but it feels like every new game is the exact same. The main thing you need to do for this to be enjoyable is to have it stand out. One thing that i noticed while playing similar games is that the employees feel really soulless. adding something like having employees apply randomly each day on a job application app/website with different stats(would get better the more they work) and asking pays, maybe requiring you to have to take less preferable employees cause its incredibly busy, and maybe add a staff happiness meter depending on how you treat them which could lead to them quitting or asking for a raise etc. Also one thing that would work well i think is random events that you have to deal with in order to not recieve complaints. Stuff like someone being too loud while watching the movie, stealing, cutting in line, etc. could add a lot life and make it a lot more enjoyable. Sorry for the text dump, just tired of all the new store running games that just feel the same and you seem to truly care about the games you release.
Make the boxes spawn in the truck instead of spawning from heaven. Also you can add employee to pickup those boxes and store them in a storage. Maybe you can have multiple locations that you can manage. You can add cleaning for each cinema room.
Honestly, it looks pretty polished, I also like the little details. I dont wanna sound rude or anything, but I think this has way more potential than Havoc, I can see this one actually blowing up a little. Keep up the good work.
I'd like a Jocelyn Sanabi to be employee. Also a thought, have a system that makes dirt and other stuff in the theater that has to get cleaned up before the next showing or else reviews might get worse. Also could make a room or something where you have to decide what movie to play, since the movie is what keeps people coming. Just an idea, though it could be really cool if you could upload video files to be played in the theatre as well!
Great devlog! I really like the concept so far. I had an idea for a potential feature: a movie licensing system. Players could buy licenses for films with varying popularity levels. Every 1-2 in-game weeks, new films could be released, and players would have to decide which ones to purchase for their theater based on their budget and audience preferences. Over time, films could gradually lose their popularity, leading to fewer customers attending screenings. To add some humor, the movies could have funny or quirky titles. Additionally, you could implement some kind of leveling system to keep players motivated long-term-maybe unlocking better licensing deals or exclusive films as they progress. Just a thought! Keep up the amazing work! :)
Special timed events like when a big blockbuster film comes out things get busier and during this time you can get away with charging higher prices etc. Nice vid👍
cant wait to play definitely going to be a really fun game, and you should make the theater rated so you start out with 0 star, and barely any customers and you eventually get more and more just an idea
Might be a bit too big for your building but my local cinema has a small arcade bit which you could purchase in your game as an additional source of revenue
hey hello, the truth is that the game seems pretty good to me so far but, if I give you some ideas they would be: illegal movies, you could download movies from dubious sites but that would lower the reputation of your cinema, scam customers, yes. I know that we all try to do it sometimes in games of this style of charging more with the card and that, I would like you to be able to do that but that they can call the police or something like that, do extra business to generate some extra money, applications, that On the PC you can buy "apps" or even improve something like TH-cam, which if you have employees would be ideal because it would make time go by faster or things like that.
I say these ideas from a point of view like that of the live sim streamer game, where the objective is to be famous but you can do many more things, also the recommendations so that the game is not just another copy of the "generic place" simulator
Hey I know this is not the right video, but I've been wondering for a while. Where did you get the gun sounds for havok? I can't seem to find any good assets.
It's kinda sad Havoc is already a dead game, this simulator game is the better idea because a multiplayer game needs a lot of attention, fixes and all of that
calling it half baked when it still has months of work to go is crazy work. It won't be early access and definitely not a tech demo lol. We plan to take it to the fullest!
OOPS, 10 seconds at the end got cutt off ;( im sorry.
Cut Off:

You should ask your viewers to create custom posters for the movies (if you are playing movies in the game)!
@ ooohhh, maybe I’ll do an event in my discord

Yeah otherwise it looks like yet another supermarket sim rip off
wait u can't bring snacks to the cinema? :o I tought it was allowed everywhere xD
you should add kids trying to sneak into the theatre by wearing a long leather jacket and a hat (tall man method)
this is golden
Being able to upgrade your Seats in the theater so like you could have a comfort system you could start with metal chairs and then in the end you have recliners and there comfort goes up with each one
smart one
you're devious for that $21 soda...
i have to make money some how
stadium prices in a nutshell

@AlexRak2 that's fuvking great. Keep working hard and pleassseee don't let this game die out from lack of updates
Havoc was fun i enjoyed the time while it lasted.
Same ;w;

THIS MIGHT ACTUALLY SELL WELL ON STEAM AS ITS ONE OF THE MOST BOUGHT GENRES ON STEAM

Can't wait for release

If you could make snapping for the furniture (it snaps to other furniture if its close to it) it would make the building system more intuitive I think
already done :) will be in the next video

Make candy that's what i think you need to add. My name is Cayden.
Make the boxes spawn in the truck instead of spawning from heaven.
Also you can add employee to pickup those boxes and store them in a storage.
Maybe you can have multiple locations that you can manage.
You can add cleaning for each cinema room.
Honestly, it looks pretty polished, I also like the little details.

I think a funny idea would to have to hire security to make sure people are not sneaking snacks.

Haha, guess what? this is a system i literally just implemented
Special timed events like when a big blockbuster film comes out things get busier and during this time you can get away with charging higher prices etc. Nice vid👍
speedrunners gonna have a field day with the quake movement
Hyped to see how this turns out!
Having a way To Grow your theaters side so in the begging You have a small theater and at the very end its like a main city theater
You had me at Quake movement 😍 Looks awesome though!! Really makes me want to make a simulator game too now... must.. resist
Do it! just not a movie theater one xD
Movie posters, or maybe a way to select movies that the theatre is showing, with a bunch of knock off names of classic movies would be cool
Name the employee Fateful
cant wait to play definitely going to be a really fun game, and you should make the theater rated so you start out with 0 star, and barely any customers and you eventually get more and more just an idea
Might be a bit too big for your building but my local cinema has a small arcade bit which you could purchase in your game as an additional source of revenue
Wow this already looks amazing!
good luck with the new project!
Great video man 🔥🔥
This is such a cool idea!
Thank you!
I’m sorry to hear about havoc I really liked that game I try to have my siblings play it with me
Movies you have to buy like licenses and also popcorn machines breaking so you have to hire a repair man or buy a new one
Holy S*** I Actually Managed To Get A Code At 6:47!!
W lol
kkp33-zhfek-b7m8r
İndie devs inspire me bro, never give up❤
This game looks fire
Cool so far, my cousin worked in one of those small theaters
fun fact, i worked at one when i was in highscool
The sausage should burn if we forget them
Ah yes, the logical next step after making an fps
This would go hard as a vr game
damnnnn thats true, but i dont have a vr headset ;(
This is super cool
You can try to make a fighting game where the fighters are puppets
this is already my job
Looks fun
W comeback
You should add a big blue clay man
send me the model
honey wait AlexRak2 just dropped a new vid
Multiplayer could also be fun.

well this will be fire but havoc is still a very cool game
put big booties in game
What a cool game man, what engine are you making it with? If you talked during the video, sorry but I wasn't paying attention
Unity :)
Have A Worker Named "Banana |||"
Hey I know this is not the right video, but I've been wondering for a while. Where did you get the gun sounds for havok? I can't seem to find any good assets.
New vid 🥳
MAKE AN EMPLOYEE NAMED NATE SHORT FOR NATHANIEL
50% off Movie Mondays?
co op ❤
I still play havoc bro
There werent a single code in the video apart from the one you displayed at first💀
There was two more, 1 was already found 💀
@@AlexRak2 Can you say where in the video the one that already was claimed is?
@ 6:47
Name him Sethasaures
And guys, don't forget to comme!
epic
Are you not gonna trie to make havoc work?
nope, havoc was to ambitious of a project.
@ oh that sucks, it was special I’m telling you
Btw, it sounds like you cut the video a bit too early
idk how it happened ;(
@ no worries :)
this is already looking fire🔥. btw u should add me as an npc name😏
Please name the employee after me
It's kinda sad Havoc is already a dead game, this simulator game is the better idea because a multiplayer game needs a lot of attention, fixes and all of that
wen launch
hopefully, march
hey wait a second, that's me!
I'm pretty sure he was talking about twest there
You abandoned havoc you didn’t even add vaulting
havoc died ;(
@ you let it die by releasing just bug fixes instead of actual content, and skins aren’t content
Make the game multiplayer
just remove bots from havoc
17 seconds no views, bro fell off
fr
crazy
Lol
Looks like a cheap rip off of Supermarket Simulator
🤦♂️another half baked copy paste simulator game to put out in early access looking like a tech demo intended for a week of hype
Bro thinks low poly models are a tech demo 💀
calling it half baked when it still has months of work to go is crazy work. It won't be early access and definitely not a tech demo lol. We plan to take it to the fullest!
@@codesteelas long as that stays true i’d buy it
add Sir Renitee :)
