Let’s play Movie Business 2

tomiga — Sun, 26 Sep 2021 12:06:06 +0000

As none of the famous youtubers recorded let’s play video about Movie Business I decided to make up for this huge shortcoming :). This film was made on the one hand because there was no similar video so far, and on the other hand because recently on Discord there were people who said that the game was too difficult. So I wanted to show that it is not trivial, but you can get out of all the troubles somehow :). And since life writes the best scripts, the movie from a long fragment of the game turned out to be a real thriller. I do not want to reveal too much about the plot of this production, but it does not start too well, during the game I have to face many unexpected obstacles and use many elements available in the game to get out of trouble.

The game took over 2 hours and you can find it on the official game channel.

The video is recorded in English and in the full post you will find details of what you will find in it.

Director's cut: Movie Business in numbers

tomiga — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 17:24:10 +0000

From the cycle Director’s cut today a post on my personal blog about the analysis of statistical data of players' movies. This is an extended version of the post that appeared on the Movie Business website, containing statistics about the players' films from the 2020 Edition. Extended, because it also contains information about the players themselves, specifically about the countries and cities they come from. If you have not read the previous post or you are interested in where other players come from, please visit Tomiga Blog for full article (English speakers will need to change their language – option in the menu on the right).

What's new in the next update

tomiga — Wed, 08 Jul 2020 12:58:12 +0000

Update 4 to 2020 Edition of Movie Business 2 is coming in great strides. So far, I have not written extensive text on such versions, which most often contained only bug fixes and minor improvements. This time, however, I made an exception, because the next update contains some new features about which I would like to write you a few words.

Like the last time, the text was published in two places:

Polish version on my personal blog
English version as Dev Logs at itch.io

I invite you to read and comment.

P.S Remember that you can find more details about the game in the Director’s cut

Director's cut: Whats new in Edition 2020 of Movie Business

tomiga — Sat, 11 Apr 2020 17:24:02 +0000

According to tradition, just before the release of the next large edition of the game, I prepared a detailed text on the news and changes introduced in it. For the first time, the text was published in two versions:

Polish (on my personal blog) and
English on itch.io where you can download the game.

This is due to the fact that automatic translation on the blog does not always cope with the nuances of the Polish language.

Even if you have followed all the texts about the 2020 Edition carefully on the official website, it is worth reading this text because there are several updates and things that I have not mentioned yet.

Director’s cut: Inspirations 2020

tomiga — Sun, 08 Mar 2020 08:34:25 +0000

I have two messages for you. Good one and ... good one but a bit in the long run. As you may remember, I recently had health problems. Do not worry looks that everything is back to normal and my mood is very good. According to the principle of "always look on the bright side of life" even during this period, you can sometimes see the positives. And in this case it is about more free time that I have recently available. Thanks to this, in addition to returning to work on the Movie Business, I could, for example, catch up on games and learn about one of the most iconic games of recent years which is… The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

OK, but why am I writing about this, and what does the Witcher have to do with the Movie Business? Well, the gameplay, in this undoubtedly fantastic production, inspired me to a few ideas that I would like to implement in my game. However, it is not about total “copy” but for some slightly more abstract concepts regarding game development. It's all about extending the game engine to support new and I think very interesting features ... You probably already want to know what these features are? Patience, I will tell you more about this in the near future.

A jakie to ma konsekwencje? Otóż być może nieco przedłuży się proces tworzenia Edycji 2020. Spokojnie, nie będzie to pół roku (jak to w przypadku Cyberpunka 2077, nowego projektu studia odpowiedzialnego za Wiedźmina ale kilka tygodni. Ogólnie, to co planowałem zaimplementować w Edycji 2020 jest już w 90% skończone. Zostały jeszcze testy (które pewnie chwilę zajmą). Jednak w tej chwili zacząłem wdrażać nowe pomysły zainspirowane w pewien sposób Wiedźminem. Jest to dosyć żmudna praca ponieważ jest jej dużo, a efekty (póki co) mało widoczne. Jednak stworzenie odpowiedniego silnika to podstawa do dalszego rozwoju gry. Dlatego chciałbym wykorzystać moment w którym mam więcej czasu aby wprowadzić te zmiany.

Work on the engine, contrary to appearances, is also important from your perspective, because if I manage to make a flexible engine enough, I will be able to provide you with a simpler way new features without side effects eg. incompatible game saves (or at least for an extended period of time – because eventually data structures will evolve anyway).

Will the extended engine capabilities be already visible in the 2020 edition? Partly, but I think it will be something like a demo version to show you what can be achieved in it. I just will not have time to create content that will fully use my ideas, and I don't want to keep you with last year's version of the game too long, because probably some of you are already looking forward to the new edition.

I hope that this sample of capabilities that I will try to include in the future version will encourage you to send me your own ideas on how to use the new features that the game will gain. And if I can do a sufficiently flexible engine ... then maybe new content will appear along with subsequent, smaller updates.

To sum up be patience ... but a new and better Movie Business is coming ...
