Game Dev Dynasty follows one studio across a connected career from 1995 to 2019. The goal is not to reset the interesting decisions after every launch, but to make each release change the conditions of the next one.
Your team carries its skills, personalities, working relationships, and development history forward. Technology accumulates through custom engine research and hardware investment, while larger offices create room for a more specialized studio.
The market remembers too. Audiences, regions, platforms, rivals, reputation, and genre standing affect where opportunities appear and how ambitious the next project can sensibly become.
That continuity is the spine of the game: every project leaves evidence, consequences, and new possibilities. A disappointing launch can still teach the studio something valuable, while a major success creates pressure to decide what kind of dynasty to build.
