Some computers that are some years old, laptops in particular, does not have an XNA HiDef Profile compatible graphics card, which was a requirement to be able to run Smooth Operators: Call Center Chaos.

Going up to version 1.1, this update rids the requirement of having an XNA HiDef Profile compatible graphics card, and also implements error handling during initialization.

Idea is really cool, but UI and game design really need more work.

With a small call center (30 employes), it's ok, but after, it's really too repetitive and not funny.
Progression is too slow too.

It's not a strategy game, it's just a management game.

A shift click to buy multiple staff would be neat.

This is a great game and I can't wait for it to be feature complete.

That said, starting at about day 42, I basically spend all my time looking for thieves. As soon as I find and fire one, another one pops up.

A way to page through employees would be amazing.

The need for L2 agents really needs to be more clearly articulated. I basically have no idea how many I need, unless I'm looking at all my employees thoughts, and even then it's hard to tell what they do.

The filter list is good, but it should be sortable by the various columns.

SimCity style color coded overlays to tell where your most productive pods are would be great.

If your l2 agents are working then they sit leaned back in their chair. If they never sit straight in their chair then you probably need more. I'll think about a way to make it more clear what those needs are.

Thanks for your suggestions and feedback, i appreciate it!

There shouldn't be. There's no communication with the outside world from the game.
This is just... weird.
What's the name of the exe file you are clicking to launch?

Well.. then there must be something else that conflicts with it somehow. try to download the demo from heydeckgames.com, install and run that. If that dont work, then i'm all out of options, tbh.

At first I thought it didnt look like much, but right when you start it up it sets the atmosphere right.
It's obvious that the devs put a lot of ♥ into this game, theres a ton of little details and for the price it's really delivering all of its promises.

Even if its just for the sake of getting more of this, seeing the revival of classics like SimTower, I'd say buy it.
