Seriously, man. As a developer you should know that people like content, or at least the basic ability to tweak their starting conditions, besides some irrelevant facial settings.

I really tried to love this game, i really did. I've played for like 6-7 hours on a pirated copy, then decided to support the game. But the hard coded limits, or the severe lack of pretty much anything, in the game take away all the potential fun. I'm talking about stuff like being able to start with more than 100$K, or the appaling slow pace at which you grow.

Another aspect that disgusts me is the ♥♥♥♥ AI. "x with 3% shares wants to reduce workers from 25 to 16, to prevent overproduction." B*tch what's overproduction? You are an oil company with limitless potential, but noooo let's cut a quarter of the friggin workers to ensure that the player a)never grows b)runs a deficit. This can get pretty out of hand, when you pursue an aggresive growth policy in which you spend every last dime, cause then you'd just lose money when, say your top dividend producing company decides to a) cut workers and reduce profit (WHYYYY) or b) reduce dividend rate from 90% to 50%.

Sigh, this game needs a LOT of HEAVY tweaking. a LOT.
But I'll recommend it cause it's only early access and cheap. A jewel in the making, so to say.
