StudioGamePlan (SGP) vs CRUNCH

StudioGamePlan is a mobile-first production workspace for indie video game creators, studios, and teams. Instead of working from disconnected task lists and scattered files, teams can organize a game project as a digital studio. Each production area works like its own office: Product, Design, Narrative, Art, Characters, Programming, Audio, Levels, QA, Builds, Assets, Marketing, and Finance. Owners can create a workspace, set up a project, assign area leads, generate internal office passes, and manage access. Members can enter their assigned office, review their tasks, follow the GDD, upload files, comment, approve shared work, and track progress with the rest of the team. StudioGamePlan includes: - Workspace and project setup - Owner and member flows - Private area offices - Internal office passes - Area leads and role assignment - GDD and production guide - Tasks by area - Shared and office files - Comments and approvals - Recent activity - Account deletion and support tools The app is free to use. Office passes are only for internal collaboration and project permissions. They are not paid unlocks, license keys, premium access codes, or external purchase mechanisms.

Build the empire. Keep the receipts. CRUNCH is a dark, cutthroat studio-management tycoon. You start alone in a 1982 garage with a little cash and a lot of nerve — and claw your way to a game-industry empire across fifty brutal years. Make games. Make money. Make enemies. DESIGN GAMES THAT MATTER (OR SELL) Pick a topic, a genre, and a platform, then steer three stages of development across nine craft fields. Balance design against technology, match your focus to what the genre demands, squash the bugs you can afford to, and ship it — then watch four critics decide your fate in real time. BUILD A TEAM. THEN MIND IT. Hire programmers, artists, designers, and writers, each with their own talent, traits, and breaking point. Crunch buys speed and costs souls. Push too hard and your best people burn out and walk — straight into a rival's open door. SURVIVE THE INDUSTRY Predatory publishers. A venture capitalist whose money is a leash. Lawsuits, leaks, scandals, console wars, and a charismatic rival who considers your existence a rounding error. Eighty-plus events force real trade-offs: money or morale, reputation or quality, your integrity or your survival. GROW AN EMPIRE Research new genres and engine features. Move out of the garage, into a studio floor, a tower, a campus. Build your own console. Launch a live-service operation the players never leave. Forty fictional platforms rise and fall across six eras of an industry that eats its own. EVERY CHOICE IS A TRADE An authored story with a cast you'll grow attached to — and multiple endings. The empire. The acquisition. The cult legend. The reckoning. The landfill. How you get there is up to you, and it costs something either way. - 14 genres, 44 topics, 40 platforms across 6 eras - A deep research tree, your own console, and live-service late game - 80+ branching events and a multi-act story with several endings - Sign in with Apple to sync your studio across devices via iCloud — or play as a guest - Designed for iPhone and iPad, with a clean, dark, native interface - No ads.
