Hi Binoguriens and Binoguriennes!
I don't know if it's a good idea to say "Hi Binoguriens and Binoguriennes!", so let's stick with "Hi folks"!
Version 1.21 is the most stable release ever, I still have one crash to fix, I'm working on it but that's not all.
[h3]The long-awaited return[/h3]
When I redid the console creation system, I had to remove an important feature due to lack of time. It was the reduction of manufacturing costs based on the number of units sold. Recently, I took the time to put this feature back in place.
And now, the more your console sells, the more manufacturing costs will be reduced, up to a maximum of 45% reduction.

I had to add a few more things to this, including tooltips that will warn the player when the console price is too high and will hurt sales, while changing the font color.
[h3]What's next[/h3]
This triumphant return of production cost reductions is great, but v1.22 is focused on studios. I'd like to add a feature that allows copying/pasting furniture placement in a studio. I plan to add it soon, but that's not what I'm working on right now.
I want to be transparent with you, and I'm working on your suggestions. The arrival of the studio director has generated a lot of suggestions. So, I'm going to add a few things, notably the ability to rename a game produced by the studio director. Or, allow the studio director not to publish a game if it doesn't reach a certain score.
These are pretty significant changes that will clearly improve the quality of life in City Game Studio. But in addition to that, I'm going to rework some small things. You see, the icons in the bottom menu aren't visible enough. It's not obvious what you can click on or not. So I'm going to rework this part. But I've also had several bug reports saying that the mouse pointer on Windows was offset at times.
I haven't fixed these bugs yet, and I'd like to finish all these tasks before starting to work on the studio furnishing changes.
That's all for me, thank you for reading,
As always, if you have any comments, I'll read them with joy and enthusiasm !
Happy New Year and best wishes
