I don't know why but it guess i completly suck at this game. The problem is: I just can't figure out why.

I started 3 Companys so far and all went pretty much the same way: I land my first hit game, get out of the garage and keep on making games, slowly i hire 1 to 2 developers and switch from making own products and publisher deals. I stick to the Slider Guidlines and I get good ratings most of the time but overall i keep loosing money and slowly dirft towards bankrupcy (in my best play so far i made it until the mbox release). The problem seems to be that i just dont get enough money from my games. Even if they land top scores i hardly make 1M with then, 2M was the best i could get so far. Anyways thats just not enough with all the development costs + research/training cost and staff salary. Research is another problem since I dont get enough research points to research nearly as much as i want.

I build a new Engin from time to time, but I just cant keep up since I dont have the money to build a new one nor I got enough new technologys to put in the engin.

So as soon as I make 1 or 2 shitty games or I start getting bad reviews cause my engine lacks my company is doomed.

I hope someone can point out what im doing wrong cause by now im pretty much desperated
