Game Overview
Manage a game development company, grow its revenue, and create popular games.
The basic gameplay period is 20 years, with Year 21, April, marking a natural stopping point.
Game Goals (Objectives)
The game offers a high degree of freedom, allowing players to set their own goals, such as creating unconventional games or producing a masterpiece with a single developer. However, for those aiming for challenging objectives, the following are generally considered major goals:
- Win the Grand Prize at the Japan Game Development Awards, held annually.
- Unlock Kairo-kun, the hidden character.
- Achieve a perfect review score (maximum of 40 points).
- Create the ultimate in-house console.
This article focuses on strategy for achieving goal #4: creating the ultimate in-house console.
How to Create the Ultimate In-House Console
Conclusion: Assign six employees as hardware engineers and develop your console.
By hiring more than six employees and assigning at least six of them as hardware engineers, you can create the ultimate in-house console.
How to Assemble Six Hardware Engineers
In the late game, within the final large office, you can hire up to eight employees. Out of these, six must be hardware engineers. Developing hardware takes considerable time, so it’s crucial to select employees with the highest possible stats.
Why?
If hardware development takes too long, you won’t be able to develop games during that period, which could harm your company’s reputation. To avoid this, ensure the hardware engineers are as capable as possible.
Ideally, prepare six employees who have maxed out all professions, with their final profession being hardware engineer at the maximum level, before starting hardware development.
However, assembling six max-level hardware engineers across all professions can be time- and money-consuming. If you’re not overly concerned about a drop in reputation, simply gathering six hardware engineers and starting development will suffice.
Recommended Employees for Hardware Engineers
- Mr. X
- Gaddem Nyuyama
- King Abufara
- Steve Jobbin
- Chimpan G-Force
- Morino Kumax
To be honest, any hardware engineer will do, but these six are particularly recommended due to their high stats.
How to Create the Ultimate In-House Console
Assemble six hardware engineers and select hardware development.
For the components, choose the following:
- CPU: “Potato Chip”
- Media: “Punch Card”
- Type: “Console”
Begin development with these settings.
Developing the ultimate hardware is divided into two phases: early and late stages. Each phase requires an immense workload, as shown below.
Both the early and late stages demand 799 development points, making it an extremely challenging process.
The Ultimate Console: Kairo-kun? Completed
And the Ultimate Console is Complete!
To be honest, since this is a hidden feature, there’s no need to create it if you don’t want to.
However, for those who enjoy diving deep into the game, why not try creating the ultimate console?
Summary: How to Create the Ultimate In-House Console
- Assign six employees as hardware engineers.
- Select “Develop Hardware” and configure the specifications as follows:
- CPU: “Potato Chip”
- Media: “Punch Card”
- Type: “Console”
- Complete the hardware development process, and your ultimate in-house console will be finished!
