Good tips Sir, a few new to me! I just came back to the game after ~2years and it changed a lot. Back then my play way always 1. boosting reputation asap to the max with contract work, 2. go all in into digital distribution, which provided a good and safe early income. This is not possible anymore since Beta1.3 I think. Is there a new strategy for early digital distribution?
I think it's been modified to be a bit more realistic. Unfortunately, there is no early method for digital distribution because it's not where the money is until later in history.
After playing around a little with 1.7, I think it is way easier now to get early money. I just hire 3 Mid-tier accountants ASAP and go for a loan application ~5mil. With that I have massive cash at hand even in Feb 1980 and can do whatever I want :)
I'd love to see a comprehensive tutorial like this on using the project management system, where the team lead AI automatically starts new projects, handles the release and stuff like that. I usually start with 4 founders, 1 who is speced into each role and leads a team doing those tasks. But, i still don't quite understand how that system really works.
Making a guide on building/designing office building is on my list of future guides, although the “there is nothing to do” complaint is a result of the employee not being assigned a task (or not being assigned a task they have the skill to do). Generally the way to fix this is either to have multiple projects at different stages going or, hire/train employees to be skilled in multiple areas, such as having a designer who also has some skill in programming.
Love the video except that loud clicking sound. It was like hearing a smoke alarm alert when it has a dead battery in the background, while someone is eating chips against a probe microphone.
You have no idea how this video is useful to me, I really appreciate that you invested time for making this to us! 👍😊
Thanks, glad you found it helpful!
Fantastic. Using the circle tool to change the grid angle blew my mind. Great stuff.
Thank you so much i started new company i was always going bankrupt thanks to contracts as mentioned by you 😊
Bloody good info, man! The circle thing is one I'd never have figured out
Thanks for these, not played since Alpha 11, so much has changed!
Thanks! This was helpful - I learned a few new things.
Glad it was helpful!
this is great, very informative.
this game is pretty complex, you probably can do a part 2 / expansion.
cool video, can you do one on project management?
Thanks, I’m working on releasing a few guides over the coming weeks so I’ll make sure to do one over project management
Thank you for the good video!

I agree, in my experience digital distribution doesn't become very profitable until sometime around 1990s-2000s

Great suggestion! Project management is definitely one of the most confusing parts of software inc, I will try to make a guide on it in the future.
Very helpful thank you Sir
Can you make a tutorial for office building? I can never seem to get an office where people are happy they always say "there is nothing to do"

You were a bit quiet, but otherwise, great video!
I wanna understand leaders and meetings
I will try to make a guide on it in the next couple weeks
