Exciting Update for City Game Studio! 🎮

Hey there, fellow game enthusiasts! I'm thrilled to announce the arrival of the much-anticipated v1.14.0 update for City Game Studio! As a one-person team, I've poured my heart and soul into this update, and I can't wait to share all the incredible improvements and new features with you.

Let's dive right in! With the new Game Engine feature, you can now easily assign and unassign studios while developing a game. It's a game-changer, making your development process smoother and more flexible.

But that's not all! The User Interface has undergone a major overhaul, resulting in a cleaner and more polished look. Starting a new game has never been easier, and you'll love the option to use your Steam avatar as your company logo – talk about personalization!

I've also made sure that the game adapts to various resolutions, making fonts bigger on lower resolution settings for improved readability. Your gaming experience will be top-notch, no matter your screen size!

Under the hood, I've optimized the game's loading time, meaning you'll get into City Game Studio faster than ever before. It now loads fewer dependencies when starting up, giving you more time to dive into the gameplay.

Speaking of mods, I've dedicated considerable effort to reworking the Mod panel. With the new "Explore Mods" button in the in-game overlay, you'll have quick access to a treasure trove of mods, enhancing your gameplay experience even further. Plus, mods are now activated by default when starting a new game, so you won't miss out on any exciting content.

To ensure seamless mod integration, the game now checks for disabled mods during loading and kindly warns players if any are found. Your gaming journey is smoother and more enjoyable than ever before.

And of course, this update wouldn't be complete without fixing pesky bugs! I've tackled issues with Leaderboards not scrolling or recognizing players, and I've ironed out mod loader bugs to make sure all mods work like a charm. Say goodbye to crashes while loading mods when Steam is offline or the workshop is unavailable!

As part of our commitment to localization, we've improved the Russian translations, thanks to the invaluable help of SyberiaK.

Thank you for your continuous support, and I hope you enjoy exploring all the exciting changes in v1.14.0 of City Game Studio. Together, we'll build the gaming empire of our dreams! 🏰🎉

Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, happy gaming!

Hello everyone!

It's another productive Saturday for me on City Game Studio! I spent a great part of the week diving into improvements for the mods interface, and I have some exciting news to share with you all!

I revamped the main menu to make it clearer and more intuitive when loading mods. Now, when you start a new game, the mods are automatically activated, saving you precious time. I also made some fixes to enhance the mod loading process and ensure a seamless experience.

For the upcoming week, my focus will be on the mods selection and creation interface. The goal is to make the entire process even more user-friendly, allowing players to easily subscribe to mods and enable/disable them when starting a game. I'm confident that this improvement will make the gameplay experience even more enjoyable for all mod enthusiasts.

Stay tuned for more updates and exciting announcements! I'm thrilled to share this journey with all of you. Together, we'll make City Game Studio the ultimate game for managing your own game development studio!
