This page contains plans for future releases of Hardware Tycoon. They are very much subject to change.

0.2.12

Planned release: January 2022

The update is nearly finished, please refer to the changelog.

0.3

Planned beta release: First half of 2022 (a very rough estimate)

Main concepts:

  • CPU Architectures
  • Ability to sell multiple CPUs at the same time
  • Extending the gameplay until at least Y2015
  • Giving the alternative campaign some love
  • Industry milestones giving benefits (e.g. sale & popularity boost)
  • Making competitors' CPUs subject to the same rules as the player's when reviewed (yeah :|)
  • Mod support in browser releases
  • LGA Packages
  • Fixing whatever 0.2.12 broke

Lower priority:

  • Tweaking the role and ways of gaining popularity (probably)
  • Making max. bank loan depend on company's capital/overall performance
  • Unifying the UI a little (e.g. out of place tabs in Bank)
  • Better sliders (especially the R&D budget one)
  • Unifying colors and making theme colors work for every UI element
  • Countdown timer until bankruptcy
  • Industry Milestones icons
  • Sorting industry milestones by date too
  • Sound volume slider in options to replace the toggle switch
  • High popularity giving a starting hype boost to all products/marketing campaigns
  • Sound effect for unlocking milestones
  • Lots of code refactoring
  • Tooltips scaling based on their content
  • Many many more smaller things that I'll bump into later...

Everything beyond 0.3 is a big question mark for the moment.
