RussiaFYI never used modtool for actual recordings. In my only current submission I really had to go through error messages =D
Hello!
Glad to see this game on SRC! I'd like to ask about a leaderboards problem which is mentioned multiple times in Steam discussions (like https://steamcommunity.com/app/435790/discussions/0/5738182472469317911/ ).
While it's not critical issue and I'm still able to continue a game, it's definitely a problem during speedruns because I'm getting crashed even if playing with clear save from my account, and obviously have to spend a bit of time to click through 7-10 error screens.
Currently I know 2 ways how to work around this error:
- Modyfing game files as described in https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3289491977 . Feels bad as speedrunning modified game is non-acceptable by design. Also during testing I felt that SFX is messed up and I sometimes don't hear some sounds (like tic when level starts, shuriken toss etc) meaning not just leaderboard string is affected by modtool
- Disabling Internet access so game doesn't load leaderboard. Didn't find a quick way to disable Internet for specific Steam application, so just turned off Internet on my PC. Worked like a charm, but means I can only make offline recordings (but will never have messenger notifications? sound good!)
Does anyone have other expirience or tips on how to avoid this problem?
UPD: Turning on Steam offline mode is the best way currently

Hello! Android and iOS versions are fully supported as Android, Switch and PC versions are around the same and iOS version has only some cosmetic features. Game Dev Story Lite submissions can be accepted aswell, but only for Game% category as far as this version finishes the game at Y4M3W4
By the way, if there is any document/wiki/other source with unlock requirements from where you've got info, we would be happy to get it, read and add to "Resources" section. And of course we'll be happy to see you in our discord channel https://discord.gg/ACgHbMV
I see, there was no Jupiter512 announcement after 2 GOTYs, but announcement event was started next week after the latest game got 16KK sales. With that requirements it seems reasonable as a misc category on the road between GrandPrize and (future) All Achievents. Currently we are getting ready to the Steam release and looking to play existing categories on PC, but if you will record a video, we might consider adding new category!
Hmmm, https://kairosoft.fandom.com/wiki/Consoles_(Game_Dev_Story) says only 2 GOTYs are required. Let me check later today
I thought the game had a bankruptcy mechanic (when you have less than $0 and need to pay employees' salaries), but I mixed it up with Game Dev Tycoon. Doesn't seem like a very clear category to me, given that you can get a negative balance in the game in the first few months with the hiring glitch
