Game Dev Tycoon Hints

Introduction Edit. This guide will cover all of the parts of Game Dev Tycoon (Game Combinations, Unlocks and Achievements). The first time I played the game I kept going bankrupt in the basement stage, mainly because I didn't know what aspects were important with what genres. Game Dev Tycoon. Game Dev Tycoon is a business simulation game where you replay the history of the gaming industry by starting your own video game development company in the 80s. Create best selling games. Research new technologies and invent new game types. Become the leader of the market and gain worldwide fans.

Game Development - Ideas & Hints Edit. When you start off as a new company, you need to immediately start making money since the 8k monthly costs quickly catch up on you and cause trouble. I recommend making games that you know will do well (good combos) and likely to bring in a profit. Game Dev Tycoon Wiki is a FANDOM Games Community.
