πŸ“ Name Lists

Expand the game's title generator with more names

🎲 What does this do? Mad Television Tycoon can randomly generate new fictional movies and shows in-game over time. To come up with names for them, it pulls from these name lists β€” one list per genre. If you add names here for a genre (e.g. "Action"), the game may use them when generating new content of that type. Think of it as feeding the game more creative fuel. If you don't care about randomly generated content, you can safely skip this section.

βš™οΈ Base Variables

Core game balance values β€” viewers, pricing, penalties and debug flags

🚨 Warning β€” Editing these values can crash or break your game. These settings are largely untested and use at your own risk. Setting incorrect values will cause crashes, softlocks, or broken saves that may be difficult to recover from. Only edit values you fully understand. If in doubt, leave the field blank β€” blank fields are not exported and the game's default is used instead.
πŸ’‘ Tip: test changes on a new save before using them on a real playthrough.
