Project Description
TubeStar is a casual sim/management game where you manage channels on a YouTube-type site - try create a viral hit!
The game is made with Silverlight/WPF.

Play online here (or download the desktop version from the download page):

It takes place in an alternative universe, where video sharing became popular in the 90s (hence the archaic interface look I tried to replicate) - but it's still early days so there are only 1 million people whose hearts you can try charm to become the first TubeStar!

Try become a viral sensation, earn enough from ad income to quit your job, or pollute the internet with videos so bad they have to be shared!

Cheated the system to get this, but it shows the ultimate point of the game - lots of views, lots of money! ;-)

On a development note, this game started out as a project of interest in trying to simulate the conditions for a video to go viral. It changed quite a bit to cater for the "gameplay" aspect, but the core concepts might be of interest to others.
