The media and the public quickly picked up on the irony of the situation, which re-ignited a debate on piracy in games. In 2013, the game was ported to PC, Mac and Linux and gained worldwide attention when the studio reported on our piracy experiment: players who pirated Game Dev Tycoon quickly went bankrupt in-game due to piracy rates, and asked for DRM and other anti-piracy measures to be added to the gameplay. Game Dev Tycoon began development in 2011 as a game development simulation game for the Windows Store, becoming the first simulation game available on the platform in 2012. You will design best-selling games by creating your own game engines, combining the best topics and genres, and choosing their platform and audience for each game - from small games to big publishing deals. Game Dev Tycoon is an isometric business management game putting you in the shoes of an indie game developer - starting from nothing in your garage, increase your skills and knowledge with practice and game reports, and build your studio reputation from the ground up as you manage your team. Relive the early days of game development, build a world-class team, design best-selling games, research new technologies and make your mark on the games industry. Game Dev Tycoon lets you build your game development empire, from a one-person team in your garage in the 80s to major studio in the present day.
