Game Dev Story

You need to hire the 'Kairobot' employee. To unlock it, you need to have won 5 GOTY awards which will give you a news paper popup that says something about a robot wanting to code. After that, do an employee hire search using 'Hollywood Agent' (unlocked in final office space).

This one will take a while as you need around 39 review score for a game to win GOTY; then getting to the point of being able to do it consistently.

You'll get this when you have an employee that has reached level 5 on all careers.

Every employee can be a coder, writer, designer, or sound engineer. These are the 'basic' jobs.

• To unlock the 'Director' career, you need that employee to be a level 5 coder and writer.
• To unlock the 'Producer' career, you need that employee to be a level 5 designer and sound engineer.
• To unlock the 'Hardware Engineer' career, you need that employee to be a level 5 director and producer.
• To unlock the final 'Hacker' career, you need that employee to be a level 5 hardware engineer.

The biggest 'gatekeep' by far is having all of the career change manuals to make this happen since you can only buy 3 per year at most.

Do note that this type of employee is incredibly expensive to retain (my fully mastered 'Chimpan Z-Force' costs 39.7M yearly) but their high stats will pay off in spades if you utilize them effectively.

To get this one, you need to win the 'Game Awards' that occur at the end of every year.

I've only won these with games that reached 39+ score in reviews; the games that do that consistently are at least 900+ total score (somewhat balanced) and 90+ hype from advertising before release. 'Lopsided games' with a crap ton of one stat and not much in the others tend to not get higher than about 37 for me.
