Game Dev Tycoon, a business simulation game where players create and manage their own video game development company, was first released.
The developer released a cracked version of Game Dev Tycoon online to observe and study piracy impacts, with the pirated version causing players to lose in-game progress, mimicking piracy consequences.
Game Dev Tycoon was approved for release on the Steam platform through the Greenlight process, increasing its accessibility and audience reach.

This game is such a beautiful love letter to old school JRPGs. Real Golden Sun vibes at times. If you enjoy any of what I just mentioned, it's worth giving this one a shot.
It's fun thinking about this game. I think it's a great game for people to play even if they don't have the nostalgia. Holds up well. Steam Deck verified (naturally). There are more and more indie FPS games inspired by Half-Life 2 and some of its styles and gameplay loops - and all of them are so fun. O.G. Halo + This, and you have the backbone and inspiration of a lot of great games.
One of my favorite games ever. Does anyone else remember the promotional VHS tape that Nintendo Power sent out to promote this game? As a kid, that was the coolest thing. I bought a Super Nintendo because of it.
