We've got some exciting news for you! Mad Smartphone Tycoon just got a brand-new game mode – Sandbox Mode! In this mode, you can let your creativity run wild with no restrictions and fully enjoy building your own smartphone empire! Plus, we've made a bunch of content optimizations. Here are the details:
Sandbox Mode Highlights:
- Unlimited Resources: Start with infinite money and resources, including staff and items!
- Free Customization: No task pressure, freely design your phones and research hardware!
- Endless Challenges: No fixed goals, but you can keep pushing the limits to create your own tech business kingdom.
Please note, Sandbox Mode needs to be started in a new save file and won't affect your existing progress or data.
Hot Phone Designs 2.0
Based on your feedback, we've optimized the hot phone designs and turned them into a new feature called "Outsourcing Order." Complete these orders in-game to earn funds!
Other Additions & Optimizations
- Added a "Skip" button to the employee inspiration interface.
- Lowered early game difficulty to reduce the chance of bankruptcy.
- You can now freely choose hardware quality when developing your own hardware. The higher the hardware score during development, the lower the cost of the developed hardware.
- When developing a new phone, the name will be based on the previous phone's name.
- When loading a save, the phone development page will automatically load the appearance and configuration of the last phone.
- Increased the maximum level cap in the main menu's "Buy Upgrades".
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where some appearance attributes were not imported when importing historical phone configurations.
- Fixed an issue where the "Veneer" material was not displaying clearly.
