The Golden Age of Developing (Reboot/OOC/Business RP/Open)

Main '80s Theme

OPs - Marsisian
Co-OPs - Nobody

It is the year 1989. You are a person that just got out of college and has a passion for electronics, or in the case of other businesses, has a passion for what they do as well. You founded a small business anywhere in the world, and in the next decades to come, Video Games will become an extremely popular enjoyment for children and young adults. It... is the Golden Age of Developing.

Hey, It's Mars here, and this is a reboot of a game developing/console making (Though you can only create your first console in 1998) RP. Basically, you create games on pre-set consoles that I get from a game called Game Dev Tycoon (really great names there).

Costs of making a video game: 5,000 dollars, increases by 5,000 dollars every year
Costs of paying employees: 500 dollars (You start with one other employee, your friend)

NOTE: ONCE YOU GET ENOUGH MONEY FROM YOUR VIDEO GAMES (500 million dollars), YOU CAN BECOME A VIDEO GAME PUBLISHER

ALSO, NO BIG GAME COMPANIES CAN BE PLAYED EXCEPT ME AND THE CO-OPS

Name of Game Developing Company: Chaos Studios

Year Founded (Obvious): if it's so obvious, why is it here? Nevermind, 1989

Country in: Ireland

Name of Founder: Aedan Coningham

City in: Dublin

Starting money (Cannot be over 10,000 dollars): For the sake of humor, 9,999.9

History (Optional): Aedan was what many people would have called a nerd back then, glasses, never really was interesting in athletics, rather, he was interested in programming as it began to grow and grow in the early and mid 1980's until it exploded in the latter years of that very decade, even before then it was clear what Aedan had wanted to do with his life. So in order to conserve funds he dropped out of his college to pursue his true interests. Only one tiny problem, Aedan had virtually (pun not intended) no experience in creating whole new worlds, through the years of 1986-1989 he had been relentless in teaching himself programming, keeping himself alive by selling hacked Ninvento and Venga games to the market. He barely made a living like this, moving from place to place until he had saved up enough money to purchase proper equipment and open his own gaming studio with a few good ol' buddies who shared a similar interest in gaming. And so, Chaos Studios was opened for business.
