| − | {{Game Dev Story}} |
||
| − | There are a total of 8 different careers, with different pros and cons. Some require specific unlock conditions, but all employees start of with some job. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Changing Careers== |
||
| − | <div class="messagebox">When changing careers, all that matters is the levels of the '''specific''' employee; having 1 employee with level 5 in one career while having a separate employee in another '''does not work'''. '''It must be the <u>same employee</u> who has level 5 in all the necessary careers.''' Think of it like real life; your friend being a good artist doesn't make you a good artist, and their skills wouldn't help you when trying to get a job where you had to be good at art and music.</div> |
||
| − | To switch careers, take a '''single chosen employee''' and use Research Points to promote him or her to Level 5 in his or her current career. Next, use a '''Career Change Manual''' to move that employee into a new career. You can repeat this several times. To unlock some careers, you must have level 5 in multiple careers '''on the same employee'''; having 2 separate employees with different careers at level 5 '''does not''' count. Career Change Manuals are sold by the Salesman who visits once a year. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Even if you hire someone with a good career, such as a hacker, they do not necessarily have level 5 in all lower careers, so if you want them to have high stats, you may wish to go back to a lower career and train it. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Hardware Engineer=== |
||
| − | Creating a Hardware Engineer requires one '''single''' employee (of any type) and several Career Change Manuals (see above for details on how to change careers, and below on what careers are needed to make a hardware engineer). |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''Hardware Engineers''' have a special bonus that unlock certain console parts when you have a certain number of them in your team: |
||
| − | :'''Potato Chip''' (CPU) - must have 4 hardware engineers on your team. |
||
| − | :'''Punch Card''' - (Media) - must have 6 hardware engineers on your team. |
||
| − | You can find more about making a console [[Consoles (Game Dev Story)#Making Consoles|here]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Career List== |
||
| − | Start careers are do not always meet prerequisite conditions listed below. Except for the hardware engineer, every career below can be a possible start career (the career an employee has when hired). |
