I bought GamersGoMakers based on reviews stating that it is a more complex Game Dev Tycoon. In my experience, the only added complexity is in the reviewable detail like spreadsheets showing current trends and company history.Everything else, however, feels less polished than Game Dev Tycoon (which I also found to be a far from ideal game). First, the user interface is sometimes confusing. Does that green checkmark mean I need to click it to activate it? Or does that mean it is activated? Oh, okay, that means it *is* activated. On other dialogues and interfaces -- oops, wait, come back! I didn't mean to skip that question or step! You're also forced into full-screen. For casual simulation games like this, I'd prefer to use a small window while I do other things. With GamersGoMakers, you can have full-screen or windowed mode. Both will take up your entire screen (in my case, on a 2560x1600 screen). Yes, there is a lot of information in the interface, but there are far more complex data-driven presentation games out there that I can play at something other than full screen, if I wish.Second, the game play itself is essentially the same as every other iteration of this genre. Research tech, train skills, name a game, select genre and focuses for game, click button and watch while the money rolls in (or doesn't). Repeat and rinse until you're bankrupt (no way to take bank or private loans or anything else - when you go negative for a year, you're toast) or until you have enough money to invest in a bigger building and more employees and advertising campaigns.Third, and what kind of drove me nuts over everything else, are the incoherencies. The game starts in 1980 and can be started in the 80s, 90s, or 00s, if you prefer. In the beginning, the only graphical technology which exists is "text based". You'll see something like the current 1980 trend being "race simulators". So, you might create a race simulator using the currently available technology. The game will bomb -- probably because you didn't invest enough focus in graphics (as per the game reviews for your product). You know, those sexy text based graphics that really drive racing simulators of 1980. If you play through production of a few games (which feels like it is always based around entirely random generation of events and desires, no matter how senseless) you'll reach the point where an ESRB-style ratings board appears. Only, not so much like the ESRB, because while the ESRB has no legal authority and are a voluntary industry ratings system, the ratings service in the game apparently has the capability to legally ban a game in America, for "excessive language".That's right. A game developed in the US for a US market is banned in the US by a ratings service for its language. For those unfamiliar with the first amendment and repeated court decisions over the decades upholding it, let's put this into context: Only two games have ever been "banned" in the US. Ever. One was an adult title in 2005 which, due to an under age (17yrs) model being revealed, was taken off the market and the other was an arcade game which was "banned" due to defective peripheral parts which were potentially dangers and therefore recalled for safety issues. In other words, neither was technically "banned" and certainly no game has ever been banned due to language or violence or legal representations of sexual situations. While this may seem like a small thing, it's an annoyance and representative of countless incoherencies in a title which otherwise asserts itself to be an engaging simulation of an industry, sectioned into characteristic decades.Over all, it is not a terrible game. I just can not suggest it over Game Dev Tycoon at a full $10. Frankly, I can't suggest Game Dev Tycoon at its full price, either. Both are very lack-luster games; GamersGoMakers more so. I would really like to see someone put in the work to produce a high quality game of this genre and subject, with the depth and complexity and coherence that it really deserves. As it is, every one of these that I've encountered are little more than a cheap mobile phone quality distraction.. It's seriously a bug fest. Half of the time I don't get paid by publishers, the other half my game projects simply stop at 100% and I can't release and have to quit the project and lose money. Can't make it past 4 years due to all the bugs.Seems like it's a "done" product as well so no more patches.Don't buy.. This game is better than Game Dev Tycoon. You can buy studios, choose what the studio can do and more.What's the future of it? I can imagine more!The development team can make something more in future? Like 3D World, game preview... Think: You're making a funny game and after would can see someone crazy with funny face hahaha :). Broken and Abandoned. Avoid.. This game when it first came out had alot of promised and I was quite excited for it. But as time went on there was little to no positive interaction with the community and the developer abandoned this game. Furthermore recent events have made it clear that the developer just sees the game as free money and doesn't really expect to do much of anything and get reward out of it.. I\u2019m simply going to talk about this game, instead of talking about how it\u2019s a carbon copy another game called \u201cGame Dev Tycoon\u201d. It\u2019s not, but let\u2019s concentrate on the game at hand.GamersGoMakers (not a great name, I know) is made by a small indie development team, and graphically the game is simple and cartoonish, which is to be pretty expected. The graphics do the job enough, though, because pretty graphics are not the most important thing about management sims, which is basically what this is.You can start your game from several points through history, but I think you\u2019ll get the most out of it by starting back in 1980. You begin your career as game developer as a one-man\/woman team. Over time \u2013 with success and no small amount of luck \u2013 you\u2019ll expand into larger premises which enable you to open specialist departments, such as a design office, a development office, a sound studio, etc. You\u2019ll have to hire staff to fill the positions, who help you to make your games. Your staff \u2013 yourself included \u2013 have skill stats, which you can improve by doing training as well as through the act of making games. The higher their stats, the higher their wage, but if you want to be churning out those big AAA games then you\u2019re going to need the best you can find. Don\u2019t be afraid to fire people so you can hire better staff members as they become available.You can choose from an increasingly wide range of game genres, such as action, adventure, strategy, etc, most of which also expand into other options, such as \u2018action, shoot-em-up\u2019. You need to decide where to place your emphasis with the game, such as graphics, game play, AI, sound, etc. For example, shoot-em-up actions don\u2019t require a lot of emphasis on writing, but game play and graphics are very important. At first, you\u2019ll be making games with the wrong emphasis in the wrong areas, but as you gain experience and can hire a producer, you\u2019ll have a better idea of what to do.After you\u2019ve finished your masterpiece, you release it to the world, where you\u2019ll get your all-important review. You\u2019ll get rated out of 10 for your game play, graphics, writing, etc. The higher the better, of course. But you\u2019ll also get a percentage score out of 100. Anything over probably 70% you can consider you did okay; anything under is a swing and a miss. Lastly, you\u2019ll get some comments on the pro\u2019s and con\u2019s of your game. A few dud games in a row early on in your career can send you bankrupt very quickly. Consequently, the early years are the most difficult and precarious.As of the current version \u2013 which I believe is version 1.1 \u2013 there are definitely bugs in the game. But it\u2019s not just bugs that are the problem. It\u2019s not very intuitive or informative in telling you what areas you need to be emphasising and what areas are unimportant, even after you\u2019ve made games in that genre a few times. For a comparison, \u201cGame Dev Tycoon\u201d reveals more and more information on a genre the more times you do it, until you have a very good idea indeed on what you need to do. It not only tells you what\u2019s important, but what\u2019s not important. GamersGoMakers doesn\u2019t make that clear enough in my opinion.The good thing, though, is that the developers have expressed a desire to release patches and even DLC\u2019s so I\u2019m hopeful that the worst of the problems will get ironed out.If you\u2019re like me and played \u201cGame Dev Tycoon\u201d, liked it a lot but also found it a little frustrating because of how limited it was, then you\u2019ll like this. If you\u2019ve never played \u201cGame Dev Tycoon\u201d but are interested in the idea of becoming a game developer bigwig then you\u2019ll like this game. It\u2019s not perfect but patches will certainly go some way towards this, and even as it is, I find it a lot of fun and rather addictive!
