Nvm I'm just a dumbass, it was enabled in my properties but wasn't in the mods menu in the game itself

@Hap did you confirm that the mod is enabled? I did update the mod a few weeks ago due to an update from SINC

Strange, doesn't appear in the difficulty dropdown when starting new games anymore

As the number one streamer of the super impossible mode playthrough (SIMP) challenge where i rock a 96% tax rate and max employee benefits day 1, I am intrigued by your mod. I am going to try this out and stream it.

I haven't tried it recently but I don't think any game updates have changed anything that this mod adds on to

Hey @TajemnikTV glad you like it! Yeah, balancing is maybe a little off, but if you want to help me balance it more tell me. OS is a possibility if you have 100k fans iirc, publishing etc is disabled as it is Impossible+, means everything you cant do in impossible, you cant do in this mod, but I will probably make an options menu where you can tweak those settings.
Can you write your ideas down here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3166322043/4303823318962428262/
that would help alot!

Thanks anyways for the kind words

Yassss, go for it CF, don't hold back at all.

What haunts me the most is the tax rate which is I feel too high. My overall idea is to go somewhat "realistic" with all the settings. But also age of the founder, press releases and that freaking creativity which I absolutely hate lol Maybe OS creation could be a possibility, but if it ain't great it's deemed to fail (which with these settings shouldn't be hard to achieveXD) And maybe setting the starting date to 1975? I think these are the ones I'd be keen on changing. Also not sure about disabling publishing deals/contracts/deals...

Thanks for yelling at me.
What settings do you want @TajemnikTV? I did disable the custom configurations, because the values change and if you change them once, you wouldn't be able to revert them until changing the difficulty again.
But if more people want that, we can for sure add it to the list.

I will yell at daRedLoCo until he readds custom settings. Thanks

Ayo, looks incredible - I was wondering whether it would be possible for it to be configurable? Most settings are fine with me, but would love for it to be customizable, cheers

@fakkerfakker thanks for the feedback! I didn't change anything with the number of possible users, but it could be the reputation factor I guess? Not sure about this one, but this could be the reason why it's hard to get enough active users. Creativity of your lead designer is also VERY important. Other than that I'm not sure what causes this but we can test it, maybe it's also desired behaviour and would be "too easy" if we lift that.

Thanks anyways for your feedback

It was a nice challenge to beat it, thanks!
Couple of strange things (hopefully not spoiler):
1. Low number of users. I have the most fans with 630K, 20x more the the second company.
2. The most active users of an OS has only 171K.
3. With a good product, within 5 months I've "run out of potential customers"
Anyway, it's great, thanks!

nah, we started working on this mod only about a week ago

Wasn't there a reddit post or something about this mod? I tried looking for it, but can't find it.

Yeah, we maybe shouldn't lock too many features out. I did just lock OSs out, because it was just too easy to make a low level OS and make sales.

@tmd thank you!

i think locking those behind might actually make the mod unplayable 😅

i did once manage to get 1.5m in sales by 1983 with an OS, but that was in version 1.0 with 95% creativity. now it's already like 100x more difficult 😄

@daRedLoCo I'd say lock 2d editor and audio tool behind 30k followers, they are easy money makers at the start, other than that, not much else to do, mod is really well done and makes the game really fucking hard :P

@tmd thanks! Do you have any idea how to make the game more difficult? I'm getting out of ideas, because I'm bad at the game and can't even pass Impossible mode ^^

dope idea
