User Reviews for Endless Studio: TV Show Tycoon
I Really Enjoy the Game
It’s a fun game. I love simulation games, so I’ve already spent an unhealthy amount of time playing it since I downloaded it. Haha. I do have some minor critiques.I believe firmly in the higher tiered genres required better results, however, it seems almost impossible even after playing for hours to make the first step. Maybe I just have terrible luck, but even after following suggestions I will try to do the first episode and fail with a 56 when I need a 57 and that’ll happen about ten times, I’ll be running out of money, then I’ll restart. Maybe it’s something you can look at tweaking as you continue to work on development. Another complaint is that I feel like at some point you should consider allowing the actors to progress in some manner. Maybe introduce an age factor, they can develop and grow to become better actors somehow, maybe as they hit around 60s things slow down a bit and they lose their edge some, new actors take their place, cont. Same with your directors and writers. That’s all I can think of for now as far as critiques and suggestions. I think you got a great base to build off of and I can’t wait to see what you do with the app.
A very strong start but. . .
This game has a very strong structure and an amazing concept. As it is right now the game is still very fun and I keep going back every so often because it’s the only game that’s really like this at the moment. It’s simple, good UI, and I haven’t seen a single bug in the many hours I have spent on this app. Now comes the only bad part of this game. The developers seemed to have stopped updating it. They expect people to pay for new features to be added into the game and some of them cost a lot. Now this would be fine if they were still adding other features along with the ones people have to pay for but they just stopped updating the game in general. This game has so much potential but I fear it’s being wasted.Edit: the developer just responded to my review, so thank you for that. They haven’t abandoned this game and that’s good because it obviously has a small gathering of people who like it. My rating of four starts will not change only for the reason that the game is still in early access and I rarely give a game five stars.
Not criticizing just suggesting
First, off the developers, I would like to start by saying I love this game and thank you for working hard to bring us fans enjoyment. The biggest things I see that could he worked on is the natural disasters and things that cause a delay in my show's productions it happens so often that it caused me to go bankrupt also with my writers going I'll and laptops breaking it happens so much that I never have a chance to earn my money back so I think you could turn the likelihood of them happening down a bit. Second, although 10M is a lot to start with I think you should make it more because 10M, especially in the beginning goes up pretty quickly, especially to players who still haven't gotten used to the game I've seen many others say it's so hard to get back to 10 so maybe more will give them wiggle room and third more ways to make money and more interactions with networks and such for me personally I really wanna see a Revive system or reboot where a show that has been canceled of yours can come back also a pick up system where is a network cancel your show another will offer to pick it up. It will be great if you could read this thank you
Love It But
I Love The Game In All It’s Very Addiction But I End Up Always Restarting Because I Think I Can Do Better What I’m Trying To Say Is This Game Is Hard How Am I Supposed To Level Up If I Need 4 Million $ And When You Make A Episode You Spend Your Own Money The Network Should Provide You With A Budget Which You Have But The Budget Should Be There Money And If You Go Over The Budget You Use Your Money This Game Needs This So The Level Up System Doesn’t Make Players Leave Your Game Or Am I Doing Something Wrong No Matter What I Do I Can Not Level Up Even If You Do Not Have Leveling In You’r Game I Can’t Get To The Requirement Can You Please Fox This Issue Some How Add Difficultly’s Our Make It Be The Networks Money I Just Can’t Play This Cause I Get No Where Playing This At The Moment Other Then Then This Game Being Stupidly Hard I Still Have To Give It A 10/10 Because It’s The Only Type Of It’s Kind It’s Addicting And I Can See This Being Big.
Love The Game, But Very displeasing update feature
This game has it all, a few bugs that need to be fixed, but also very addicting. Add in Shopping rejected shows around, longer title names, custom log lines, Advertisements and award shows. Also have the choice to end your series when you want. The one thing that turns me off so much is the “we will not make an update until you guys fund a feature” some people don’t have money. You guys have made from calculations well over a couple grand in $$$ from votes that most likely won’t make it unless more people play and without an UPDATE, it’s not likely. And not mentioning the amount of trouble for having people buy tokens for features that will never see the day of light. You guys can give certain updates that way but you still have an obligation to fix bugs and make basic changes, not scam people out of money. Give a FREE Update, not gonna buy those lame tokens for you to get the “incentive” to wanna fix some bugs and then go hidden another year or two. 7 Out Of 10. **THIS GAME WOULD HAVE 10 STARS IF THEY DIDNT FEEL THEY NEED AN INCENTIVE TO CONTINUE UPDATING*** So its a solid 7. No Actual Passion From Developers it’s clear they want a Payday and not build on a Loyal, Fanbase that will not compare to their short lived $3,000 - 5,000 .
Fun once you get the hang of it!
I’ll be honest - starting your studio can be one of the most difficult challenges of the game. Getting the hang of it and trying to profit off the shows can be a hassle (I had to retry 6 times), but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be hooked to the game. There’s clearly some features missing due to this being a new game, but I am so far enjoying the experience and the happy chemicals I get from seeing my shows succeed! Some features I’d suggest adding would be to allow us to customize the logline, as that tends to be limiting and I’d rather create a new concept of my own. Awards would be a nice feature too, as well as the ability to see the stats of each show and the views the season/episodes got. This game has so much potential and I can’t wait to see the upcoming updates!
Really good but…
I love games like this. I personally get hooked to mobile games like this and pour unhealthy hours into them. This game is probably the longest I’ve poured into. When I found this in October I was actually really surprised with how fun it was, at least once you start actually making a good profit. This game is an uphill battle about 90% of the time. Once you have two or three shows it’s when the game starts to take off. Playing for three hours to get the level 2 isn’t the best idea but once you get there it gets a bit easier. I hit level 3 soon and was making a good profit with about 7 shows and most of them in the 10-11th season. Other than my first show which I stopped after season 3. The game also has a lot of depth but you need a lot of patience to even get anywhere. Have it easier and make it easier to get show runners and it’ll be an awesome game worthy of 5 stars
Lots of fun
This is the type of game I’ve wanting to play for a long time. A few suggestions for implementing:- Pitch shows to multiple networks. More realistic than pitching to just one network. More in line with what happens in the real world.- Ratings algorithm need to be fine tuned. In real life there is definitely viewership swings from week to week but not as drastic as found in this game. It’s not uncommon to see shows rate from low single millions to double digit millions throughout the season. Also, quite a few shows get 0 viewership ratings. I don’t think that’s possible even for a low rated show.- Episodes on broadcast/cable always seem to run Monday at 8. Glitch?- Consider adding other revenue funnels. DVDs, product placement, landing on streaming services, people buying individual episodes, syndication, etc.- This is probably outside the parameters of the game but a lot of TV networks now have their own production companies to lower costs. Could be fun to run your own network with the shows produced, green light other studio shows, compete with other networks, land advertising deals, etc.Look forward to new features! Keep up the great work.
I’d like to add in one more suggestion
I noticed you guys gave me a response on my last review and that has me excited. I do have one more suggestion. I’m not trying to promote any game or anything but just trying to help, there’s a game called BoxOfficeSim. It’s very similar to this but it’s movies instead. That game itself still has a lot of problems but all I’m saying is if you compare your game to theirs features wise I think you might be able to get some more ideas on your belt. I think especially if you take a look at the way they have their actor/actress system and made it similar you’d get a little bit better of a response. Only a suggestion, again not trying to advertise the game I’m just trying to let y’all know that’s something to look into. This game has a lot of potential in my book, I certainly think comparing it to other games like this and adding in features they successfully have into this game would make it a lot better. Have a good day
Good game but needs to work on things
I Know this game is still in development but something I think you should add is the money used for making episodes shouldn’t be from the studio it should be from the network that is giving you the money to make the show.I think another thing you could add is actually gaining money from the views of the show,and the advertisements like perhaps the Network could split the amount of Earnings from that show with you. That’s all I suggest good game and please continue working on it because it can be a really good gameAlso I forgot to add this but Maybe later in the game once you get to the top you can try to make your own Network and see how that goes Anyways I can’t wait for the next Version
