First: Sorry for the lack of updates. I had a long run of back to back night shifts and after that I renovated my apartment.
Second: I realized that implementing TV Shows will take a while, at least another couple of months. So how would you guys feel about a Demo Version with only the movie feature activated? Not a public Demo, but a Test Version for a couple of people willing to test play and make notes on bugs and other issues (especially balancing).
To-Do-List:
Adding DVD Sales
Adding Studio Reputation System
Adding Taxes and Expanses
Adding In-Game "Internet Movie Database"
Adding Franchises (Including Sequels etc.) for AI Studios Adding Importing and Exporting Database Files
Adding Option to buy and sell Franchises from and to other Studios
Expanding Franchises Expanding Awards Expanding Random Events
Fixing UI Crashes
Balancing Negotiation System Balancing Dynamic Development of Stats Balancing Movie Revenue
Database Goals:
Movie Titles General 5041/5000 Movie Titles Science Fiction 774/1000 Movie Titles Fantasy 840/1000 Source Material 125/200 People (Actors/Directors/Writers) 1452/1500

I'd be more than willing (I'm sure a lot of people would!) to volunteer and offer bug testing and balancing feedback.
I have recently moved flats myself so will be saving for a bit, giving me lots of free time in the evenings haha

Great. I'll try to get a Demo Version ready during the next couple of weeks. There're some features I want to add and a couple of kinks to work out, before I'm ready to show it to you guys. Right now I'm working (by public demand) on limited availability of actors, directors and writers. AI movies now keep people busy for a certain amount of weeks and people might be unwilling to participate in a project, depending on the persons stats and your studios reputation and the movies budget, genre, quality, etc. I will probably post a blog update about this either this weekend or the weekend after that.

I really can't wait since I love tycoon games especially the ones that are in depth like your own

Is the demo dead?

No? You have to give me a bit of time to get it ready. Even if it's just a alpha version demo it still needs to be stable and cleaned up. My work schedule is stuffed with night shifts and weekend shifts for the next two weeks, but I should have a bit more free time during late March and early April so I'm aiming for a early or mid April release of the demo.
