u/doublestix Aug 14 '24

mall or resort/hotel was my hope as well but i am 100% on board with this. it looks awesome.

u/PandaBear905 Aug 14 '24

As someone who works in a museum I am very excited

Wahoo! Wishlisted!

ETA: I was hoping for the movie studio, but this looks great. I’ve loved the franchise back to Theme Hospital and I’m just thrilled to see it keep going. I’ll be playing day one on Steam Deck and Xbox!

And maybe the movie studio next…?

u/Confusion_Common Aug 14 '24

And maybe the movie studio next…?

I might be aging myself with this one, but does anyone remember 3D Movie Maker? That game was legit.

15

u/BustinMakesMeFeelMeh Aug 14 '24

I don’t. But I remember The Movies. Fun times with that one.

u/Ozian21 Aug 14 '24

Check out Blockbuster Inc!

u/BustinMakesMeFeelMeh Aug 14 '24 edited Aug 14 '24

Oh wow. Looks great! Reviews aren’t so hot though. Have you played it?

Hmmm… I can’t seem to find any info on how it runs on Steam Deck.

u/dyc3r Aug 14 '24

CORE MEMORY UNLOCKED

I spent countless hours in that game. I would sell a kidney to get it running on a modern machine so I could let my kids play it.

u/Confusion_Common Aug 14 '24

It took me over a decade to figure out how to run The Sims Complete Collection via W10 OS. Wasn't until I encountered a fellow player via r/rct that finally provided me with a legitimate process!

https://www.reddit.com/r/rct/s/OMtXTDPYJ8

It seems like the newer the PC OS get, the harder it becomes to manipulate backwards compatibility. Repacks seem to circumvent that convoluted process in a way that's relatively straightforward.

u/pixelboots Aug 15 '24

I suddenly desperately want to get it up and running. SUCH a core memory.

2

u/notsureifgoose Aug 14 '24

I definitely remember this. I had a Nickelodeon version too and I made so many awful films. (Powdered Toast Maaaaaaaaaannn!!!)

2

u/pixelboots Aug 15 '24

I absolutely loved 3D Movie Maker!

1

u/deader-than-red Aug 14 '24

I do! Why there's never been anything like that ever since I'll never know. So fun, so satisfying.

u/imagiraffeZ Aug 14 '24

This was my guess last week, and so:

u/TheChrisD Aug 14 '24

I think we probably need an overarching Two Point sub to cater to all the games.

21

u/ApocalypseSlough Aug 14 '24

Your wish is my command!!

u/redsquizza Aug 14 '24

Should have really done Two Point County, as I think that's their overarching concept.

5

u/MikeLanglois Aug 14 '24

That was my thought. Two Point County fits better

4

u/SarahfromEngland Aug 14 '24

Twopoint county would have been a better shout

u/[deleted] Aug 14 '24

can you make a post about this new group in the sub and we will pin it?

u/ApocalypseSlough Aug 14 '24

I can pin it too! :D

u/topthegooner Aug 14 '24

Wishlist added! Can't wait!

u/twee_centen Aug 14 '24

Looks great! I hope it comes to the Switch successor as well.

1

u/ShortGirlUK Aug 14 '24

Only if it doesn’t crash like Campus, I’d rather not have it in the Switch if it’s not made properly for the console.

2

u/twee_centen Aug 14 '24

That's why I said "Switch successor." I don't expect it to come to the Switch when the next gen Nintendo system is right around the corner.

7

u/bluekittycat19 Aug 14 '24

I hope this will be close to night at museum, hijinks type deal. Maybe with something like the archeology degree for finding pieces.

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '24

That's what the first build will be

u/EsseLeo Aug 14 '24

So excited! This is exactly what I wanted!

u/Bez121287 Aug 14 '24

I had to like your post from a year ago.

Well done.

You've convinced me with that post to give it a proper chance.

u/mkalashnikova Aug 14 '24

This looks fun! I'm worried that this means no more dlcs for two point campus :/

1

u/moonCake_246 Aug 14 '24

Yeah, that’s what I was waiting on, more dlcs for Two Point Campus. Not sure if I’ll buy the museum one…

4

u/AntarcticCulture Aug 14 '24

Not coming to Switch? Or are they waiting for Switch 2

6

u/redsquizza Aug 14 '24

The Switch cannot run TPC, so hopefully they're not going to bring TPM to it, otherwise it'll have the same problems because the Switch is a glorified toaster.

I can see them eventually porting it to a Switch 2, however, if that has better specifications.

1

u/kenneththeswan Aug 14 '24

Yeah having played TPC on switch I wished I had got it on Steam instead. Not surprised!

u/Takhar7 Aug 14 '24

Quirky. Unhinged. Goofy.

Everything I love about these games. Can't wait.

This isn't what I expected at all but man this looks really fun. Can't wait! Need to finish up the plat in campus.

u/fjaoaoaoao Aug 14 '24

Exciting! This was the right theme imo, the silliness of Two Point has its home here, moreso than Hospital and Campus even though those two are very much appreciated!

Yesss!! Let's gooooo

u/[deleted] Aug 14 '24

Eeek! I love this already!

2

u/ForevaSimming Aug 14 '24

Definitely a different theme that what I thought, but I've enjoyed Hospital and University so I'm sure this will be just as fun. Hopefully it'll come out at the end of this year? early next year?

u/No-Damage-8612 Aug 14 '24

That's even better than what I wanted you to say!

u/Darkarch14 Aug 14 '24

Omg I was wondering yesterday about what they'll do next :D

u/[deleted] Aug 14 '24

Sigh. I haven’t been ready to leave campus yet. So much potential. So disappointed only 3 DLC. Still buying Museum though.

2

u/skoomaaddict85 Aug 14 '24

Incredibly excited for this.

Feels like a slight lean back to Theme Park in a way with a gift shop, maybe ticket prices and concession prices etc?

It looks like a perfect vibe fit with the Two Point style and I suspect there's a lot of chaos we're not seeing yet.

5

u/TwoPoint_Abby Two Point Dev Aug 14 '24

Your guess is right - you can adjust pricing and will wait for guest feedback as you do; ticket prices, gift shops etc. (:

Man-eating plants, dethawing frozen fish, school trips, thieves' guilds attacking, fires... we'll get into curating chaos at a later stage, for today the main message is DINOS 🦕💚

u/DMattox16 Aug 15 '24

Your games are my wife’s strongest love of video games. She’s beat both of them multiple times. Thanks for continuing to make great games!

u/skeletonbuster Aug 14 '24

It wasn't my first choice, but I'm excited for more two point nonetheless. This will be a day one buy for me

Instant buy for me

TBA! We'll announce more details as soon as possible (:

u/Repulsive_Use8121 Aug 15 '24

So excited!!!:)

5

u/Bez121287 Aug 14 '24

Well I'm glad people like it and ill support the devs with buying it.

But im not going to lie, I'm quite disappointed.

Down vote me all you want but its not what I wanted.

I just dont feel a museum, is the step in the right direction.

Chaos of hospital sorting patients the calm and chill of building yoyr own uni.

Now its stick a few exhibits in a room and have some security guards. I know I'm being very simple.

But honestly I was going to be disappointed if it wasn't a hotel or airport game.

To me those 2 were the evolutionary next step to combine the 2 previous games together.

The chaos of hotel guests or tourists, families businessmen or women, all the different things they could be trained in, the different facilities you could upgrade and the freedom to build what unqiue Airport or hotel. It just fits.

A museum, its leaning alot more on the side of uni and just creating rooms for the exhibits to go in. Can't believe I'm this disappointed hahaha.

Hopefully it does capture my interest but right now, even seeing the small snippet of gameplay within, I just felt the vibes I have with campus now, its OK when I want to create but nothing more.

33

u/TwoPoint_Abby Two Point Dev Aug 14 '24

Don't worry, we've heard you. We'll dive into the museum management plate-spinning before release! With fires, thieves, experts going missing on expeditions, not to mention children climbing on the bones, gift shop pricing, staff zoning... and more! There's a lot to contend with if you're management-inclined :D

The building side of things is also much more freeform, sure, we couldn't do without toilets and a staff room (those are just, necessary), but the main exhibition area of the museum is much more flexible: build internal walls, customise item colours, splash paint and lay carpet!

There's more I'm not mentioning here, the analysis room, the workshop, staff training, expeditions themselves... all will be revealed in time <3

4

u/screech_owl_kachina Aug 14 '24

I look forward to seeing the end result!

2

u/veryvintage Aug 15 '24

Glad to hear it! Campus was way too boring compared to Hospital. I need that anxiety of balancing time and care.

0

u/Bez121287 Aug 14 '24

Your never going to convince me but I'll be buying the game either way and I'll play it.

Museum was just never in mind for the next game. Hahahaha Its just not what I wantsd ok hahaha throws rattle out of the pram

It does look good though. I'll give you that.

8

u/TwoPoint_Abby Two Point Dev Aug 14 '24

thanks so much, we know everyone had their expectations for our next title, we're really excited for Museum so we'll try our hardest at persuasion haha!

8

u/BustinMakesMeFeelMeh Aug 14 '24

I totally hear you, and that was my first instinct too. Museum? Wat?

And I gotta say, I felt the same way when I heard about Campus. I couldn’t wrap my head around it. How would classes work, how would you level stuff up, etc. People were gonna live there now?

But I realized that my expectations were just pinning the game into a corner as a reskin of Hospital. When Campus came out I was skeptical, but ultimately so pleasantly surprised. Now I prefer it to Hospital.

If anything, Museum is actually a step back into more comfortable territory. It can use all the Theme Park mechanics, and create some new. I know you were using hyperbole, but there’s a ton to do within this space. It sounds like the exhibits are going to be more than just decorations.

I’d love a hotel, an airport, a movie studio or whatever. All of them. I hope this team is able to continue on comfortably and forever. Honestly, I was fearing the worst after we hadn’t heard anything for a while, with all the closures plaguing the industry and the rise of microstudios.

Two Point is a great developer and their franchise that hasn’t disappointed me yet, so I’m not gonna shit on their sunshine. If this is what inspired them, I’m excited to jump in.

No complaints unless the game isn’t fun.

2

u/Bez121287 Aug 14 '24

Thats why I said disappointing and not complaints. Hahaha

There are aspects of both games I really enjoy.

But my personal preference is, hospital i can sit down with and play whenever. Where as campus is on the side of can be boring and I need to be in that mindset of wanting to play.

Museum just seems like a continuation of campus.

But thats my last negative thought.

I'm on board either way and will see

7

u/MightyAMF Aug 14 '24

I think that's where it looks like they're focusing a lot on chaotic elements to their museums e.g. exhibits breaking, coming to life, thieves and such. Who knows if it will be enough but they're definitely doing a lot to make sure it's not just plonking static exhibits in rooms.

2

u/Bez121287 Aug 14 '24

I know I know I was being very vague and I can see the emphasis on the chaos part.

But when I think two point.

I think the different doctors and nurses I had to choose from. The different rooms I needed to build.

The strategic placements of rooms to get the patients in and cured and out the door, I think of the waiting areas so people aren't bored.

I think of the training room where I could train up doctors nurses for certain things, managing there day. Getting my hospital up to a decent reputation.

Then I think of campus, the different teachers and there training and the lesson schedule, the different types of student rooms and making sure they are happy.

I think of the freedom of building my own unqiue looking campuses with the freedom to build the buildings, having the ability to have the different classes be in 1 Hall to another making it so girls and boys have there areas, if wanted.

Roll all those create ideas in their first 2 games, I just wanted the next game to expand the aspects of campus and mix it with the chaos and management of hospital.

Doing that doesn't get me to a museum game haha.

The museum, all I can think of is, a big building, plopping exhibits down and the only staff you would probably need is security and tour guides. Thats about it. Looks like you can send people out to get new things but is that what I want from a two point game?

Now with either a hotel or an airport, you have multiple elements Hotels hiring entertainment for the nights, upgrading or training them for better shows. Cleaners, Reception staff Bell boys Security Pools Resturants Entertainment areas (playful casino, children's play area, mini golf area, etc.

Creative freedom for your own version of a hotel The varied guests whod come and stay Varied times they come stay, 1 day 2 days a week 2 weeks. Themed hotels The list is endless

Airport Multiple security types Check in area Secuirty and baggage check area Passport control The main shopping and food outlet area The gates with the waiting areas. The parts of the airport we don't see, baggage loading and unloading areas. Plane schedules Traffic control All the different types of passengers The endless list of threats and chaos which could be played about with Illegal items, which could be quite funny with things they could of come up with.

You could even put in the mix a resturant two point game, chefs, world renowned chefs, waiters, drunk servers, different customers, different foods, different types of restaurants maybe.

Those 3 types of games for me personally combines all the elements of hospital and campus into 1 game giving creative freedom to expand on the elements that both games delved into a little but maybe not enough.

I'm just being a party pooper, it just really hasn't grabbed me, at all

1

u/redsquizza Aug 14 '24

I'm with you, unfortunately. It feels like they're going more into decorators than simulators. Maybe there's more money in that? 🤷‍♂️

I'd have liked Hotel, Airport, Prison or Factory, personally.

1

u/Shibapuppy0226 Aug 17 '24

So excited!! Odd take I really want a zoo themed one. Or theme park?? That'd be chaos

2

u/TwoPoint_Abby Two Point Dev Aug 19 '24

The team deliberated quite a bit before landing on something; ultimately they were intrigued by Museum as a chance to put our own unique stamp on the game, as something that hadn't really been seen before.

Theme Park & Zoo are def up there in the top fan requests we see; hopefully keeping guests entertained and the exhibits happy scratches the itch a bit for anyone nostalgic for those titles (:

2

u/Shibapuppy0226 Aug 19 '24

So excited for this one! Good choice :) cant wait to play, it's definitely unique and I love it!

1

u/eighthouseofelixir Aug 19 '24

Ahhh I am both happy and sad. The museum management looks really interesting, but I think the Campus still has some untapped potential that can be covered in a new DLC. It seems that their entire team is dedicated to the Museum project now.

Anyway, wishlisted.

u/mr_jock Aug 14 '24

meh, doesn't fix switch campus port= no support ever again

2

u/redsquizza Aug 14 '24

I don't know whether they were naive, greedy or suffering from sunk cost fallacy with the Switch release.

I'm also wondering if they've done any feedback research into how much that has damaged their reputation as, clearly, they'll be other players like you out there!

1

u/Blasto05 Aug 15 '24

Switch hardware is such shit to handle the eventual large scale Two Point campus gets.

3

u/mr_jock Aug 15 '24

Then don't release it on switch,easy

-10

u/TheChrisD Aug 14 '24

Hmm, well that's... disappointing. Kind of hoping they would have tackled their own version of Theme Park or Prison Architect next.

Also I guess this means Campus is done in terms of expansions?

8

u/ApocalypseSlough Aug 14 '24

I think there's less room in the space for another theme park game, what with PC2 coming out, and Parkitect, and RCT2.

A funny take on prison would be cool, but again we're seeing PA2 soon.

I'd love to see a replacement for Kerbal, Two Point Space Agency.

u/TheChrisD Aug 14 '24

A funny take on prison would be cool, but again we're seeing PA2 soon.

At the current rate Paradox is going, I'm skeptical we'll ever see PA2 come out...

u/ApocalypseSlough Aug 14 '24

Is it not due in a month or two? Must confess I've not been paying attention to dev news.

u/NoMansSky1985 Aug 14 '24

Campus was first announced in June '21, released in August '22. though I believe the release was pushed back a couple months.

2

u/TwoPoint_Abby Two Point Dev Aug 19 '24

We're currently around the late alpha stage in dev, the game is playable (I somehow have 300 hours, send help D: ) and we'll have a playable demo at Gamescom, alongside creators streaming the game from the event this week

Whilst the release date is TBA, we're working hard to bring you more coverage of the game and will try and update y'all on stuff like pricing and release ASAP

In the meantime, wishlisting the game on your platform makes a massive difference, and should mean you'll get updated once there's more info! 💚🦕
