Title
TV Studio Simulator game
Goal
Replicate the atmosphere of a busy 1960s/1970s TV studio
Description
There are plenty of silly "XYZ simulator" games out there - how about one that simulates the staff of a busy 1960s/1970s TV studio? You could play as a camera operator, vision mixer, producer, boom operator, etc., or play together in multiplayer mode as a team of people trying to make a complex drama or news show work. Disasters would include broken equipment, misbehaving actors, unreasonable time pressure and invasions by visiting schoolchildren. For inspiration, have a look at the ADAPT project (https://www.adapttvhistory.org.uk/) or the stories on the BBC Tech Ops site (http://www.tech-ops.co.uk/next/).
