The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
You feel like a TV executive carefully balancing scripts, budgets, and network demands in a bright, playful sandbox.

What players say
Players are split on this Early Access TV studio tycoon. Some enjoy the creative premise and compare it to Game Dev Tycoon, but most agree the game is very rough and repetitive after a few hours. A consistent warning is that development appears to have stalled around 2025, and the game lacks tutorials, depth, and polish.
