Om denne demo

This demo lets you discover the foundations of the game through a playable slice set between 1906 and 1914, during the early rise of movie theaters in Paris. You’ll play as a young theater owner, guided step-by-step by a complete tutorial teaching you the game’s core systems: film scheduling, reel purchasing, pricing strategy, room layout, revenue management, and technical upgrades.

Once the tutorial is complete, you’ll be free to develop your cinema as you wish. Whether you dream of an early-day multiplex or a refined arthouse venue, the demo gives you full freedom up to 1914, with no time limit or artificial restriction. Estimated playtime: 2 to 4 hours.

Meddelelse om AI-genereret indhold

Udviklerne beskriver spillets brug af AI-genereret indhold sådan her:

The game includes over 1,000 movie posters that were converted into pixel-art using an AI tool and then manually retouched by the team. This approach was chosen because pixeling each poster entirely by hand would have been too time-consuming for a small team. All other visuals and animations in the game were drawn and animated entirely by hand.

In the long run, the team plans to gradually replace these posters with original, hand-drawn artwork after the game’s release.
