0.8 - AI Milestone Reached

The AI milestone has been reached. This should make the market more dynamic and more challenging.

This does not mean work on AI is not done since there are still new features to implement. Also balance tweaks will keep happening.

Here is a quick list of features added between 0.7 and 0.8

• Quick comics creation
• Random names option for player
• Newspaper added to follow industry news
• AI keeps creating competing comics during play
• AI hires workers
• AI companies can go bankrupt
• New AI companies appear during play

Next big milestone is the concepts milestone. This will add a new layer to the comic creation and should be a big change on how the game plays.

After that only the office overhaul is left. The limit on seats and rooms is already bit of a problem so it is possible some of the features planned for it will be implemented sooner.
