Vertical Slice: A Game Dev Story

Vertical Slice: A Game Dev Story is an engaging life simulation and management game that immerses you in the world of game development. Begin your journey as a solo developer in a one-man studio, and strive to become a successful game producer over the course of three exciting years. Face the challenges of the gaming industry while managing a small team, where your leadership and organizational skills are vital to success.

As the studio leader—perhaps even portrayed as a whimsical talking cat—you’ll not only need to oversee game development but also ensure your well-being and the health of your team. Balancing the demands of work and personal life, you'll need to keep your developer nourished, rested, and mentally engaged.

Make critical decisions regarding art styles, music, and gameplay mechanics as you develop your dream game. Enhance your skills in various aspects of game design, programming, and more. Manage your budget wisely, handling expenses while seeking opportunities for funding through outsourcing or successful game releases. Build a talented team within budget constraints, and network after hours to form valuable connections.

With the addition of Endless Mode, continue the legacy of your studio, creating groundbreaking games long after completing the story mode!
