game dev tycoon how to get hardware lab
Alright, so I wanted to get that sweet Hardware Lab in Game Dev Tycoon. I’d heard it was the key to making some seriously cool stuff, but I couldn’t figure out how to unlock it. I mean, I was churning out games, making money, but no Hardware Lab option was popping up.
First, I made sure my team was leveled up.You need a good team, folks! It’s not just about cranking out games; it’s about having skilled people. So, I focused on training them up, making sure their skills were pretty balanced.
I hired new employees to raise the overall level of my team.
Then, I started researching. I was researching like a madman, clicking on everything I could. I figured there had to be a research project that would unlock it. I kept hitting roadblocks, though. Either I didn’t have enough research points, or the topic I needed just wasn’t showing up.
I remember thinking, “There’s gotta be something I’m missing!” So, I began the process that I need to move to a new, bigger office. I don’t know why I think it’s * I still did it!
Get into the Level 3 office
- Develop some games to earn enough money
- keep researching new topics
- Move to Level 3 office
After moving to bigger office, I finally realized it was all about R&D! You need to have a team that can handle Research and Development projects.I built up a solid R&D department.
I also need to develop my own game engine.
Develop your own game engine
- Researched to the “Custom Engine” topic.
- Developed a new game engine.
- Keep developing games with this engine.
After these hard work, I tried to start a R&D project, and Boom! The Hardware Lab option was finally there! It was a bit of a grind, but totally worth it. Now I can start working on consoles and all that awesome stuff. The key takeaway? Patience, research, and a strong R&D team. Don’t give up, even if it takes a while!
