NEW FEATURES
Randomized starting troup
When starting a new game player's troupe will be composed randomly within predefined criteria, in both tutorial and no tutorial modes.
Artist’s stress effect
After every encounter based on the encounter's outcome one of the performing artists has the chance to receive the ‘Stressed’ effect.
‘Stress’ makes the artist not able to participate in the show, until effect is not removed from the artist.
‘Stress’ is removed for the artist owning the effect after 1 encounter is completed.
Ability to play shows in the 3 star cities
After acquiring 3 stars in any city, player should be able to play shows in such cities on a normal basis (including cooldown between shows), except the amount of revenue and experience given.
FEEDBACK
The key is to check whether the features meet your expectations or not. We’ve studied the detailed requests and analized what would be the best options to implement into the gameplay to differentiate the experience. Hence the new functionalities above.
