• Build 22.03.13a - 13 March 2022

  Build 22.03.13a Note: Showbiz Tycoon is still in development. If you don't like any updates, please give me feedback. New Feature: Automatic purchase of movies for streaming. You will need to choose the minimum amount (must be at least $10m) and maximum amount (up to $150m) that will be spent on movie purchases per month. Note that movie choices will be made randomly (good or bad) and no movie will be bought if you don't have enough money. This is a good option so you don't lose too many subscribers constantly, but it doesn't replace the need to check what's happening with your streaming service. You can still lose money. Change: The new game menu is a little different. Change: Sadly, the actors and directors will eventually pass away. Added: New Awards - 'The Silver Circle Awards' - This award will be a thermometer for the main award, which is now called 'The Showbiz'. Being nominated…
