Animation Studio Manager

Animation Studio Manager puts you in charge of an animation studio. You hire staff and produce web-shorts, TV episodes, full TV seasons and feature films, while building a reputation and competing for awards. Your mother, a major figure in the animation industry, gives you a studio and starting money but doubts your ability. Prove her wrong, earn her respect and eventually challenge her at an award show duel.

Build your studio

Hire writers, animators, storyboard artists and other production crew members to make web-shorts and TV episodes that pay the bills. As the studio grows, bring in corporate staff such as H.R., I.T. and Marketing. You will also need an executive and a producer to expand into full TV seasons and feature films; they help keep the crew happy and improve your Rotted Potatoes Score with critics.

Choose your path

You can follow a Pure or Corrupt pathway. Corruption offers more perks but makes employees and fans sad. You can also earn studio perks by playing and winning minigames, upgrading the coffee machine, hiring a barista to brew different coffee flavors or selling your soul for Soul Perks. Earn XP to upgrade your crew further.

Compete for awards

Once the corporate side of the studio is established, you can compete for film awards. Your mother is a rival, but you must first progress through lower award tiers. Win Best Picture at the Sell-Out Awards and the Space Rock Awards to earn a place at the Golden T-Pose Awards, where you can face your mother for the top award.
