    I'm currently working on a The Movies inspired game. I hope it will be more like City Skylines is to Sim City. Not an exact clone like this one but allows for more customization of sets and other things. It's being made in Unreal.

    Glad to see you still around Jonti. I have been playing the Movies since it came out in 2005 and this video is the first I am hearing about this game. I was so excited to see it is releasing in 11 hours from when I found this video! Great content as always. I'm definitely going to check this one out.

  • @DistinctionDave
    @DistinctionDave Месяц назад

    Thanks for this one, Jonti. Been on my watchlist for a while now; I adored The Movies, even though it was a bit of a flawed game at times. I played the demo of this and while I can see the potential, I still thought it was a little unintuitive and also very difficult to make any money. Still, I love the idea, and perhaps the game will get better after a few updates. Not sure I'll pick it up when it releases on Thursday, but I'll definitely keep an eye on it, and any more videos you make on it!
    Incidentally, the writers' room and producer's room weren't working because you didn't have the very specific item it wanted - the cabinets. You can see it says "The room requirements are not met" around 39:14. You need both types of cabinet, apparently. The game should probably do more to warn you that the movie isn't getting made because of that!

    • @Geekism
      @Geekism  Месяц назад +3

      Thabks for watching, it definately has promise! So I don't think you NEED the cabinets, but the Gane seemingly needs you to take the desk from the UI menu and not the main menu? I think? It is a little unintuitive, but an easy fix I feel

    • @Geekism
      @Geekism  Месяц назад +1

      Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on all of them too... this one definately seems the most fleshed out, if a little safe in it's similarity to 'The Movies', but hey... The Movies ruled, so maybe it's ok!

    • @Geekism

    @eyelesspotato2189 Месяц назад

    While I am more excited for Movies Tycoon (based on the demo, it seems more like the 2005 original), I am on board for this playthrough and can see why you are drawn to this one. First impression is that it is a mix of The Movies and the Two-Point series of games.
