It’s exactly like that right now! The starter film only drops 'Street' and 'Urban' tags, which provide a 15% bonus. However, more expensive films can unlock synergies like 'Abstract' that gives 50% more likes but require more photos to complete. You can see which tags a film drops via the prestige upgrade. But I’ve decided to hide the synergy filters until you discover a photo with that tag to prevent information overload after your feedback:)
I'm also considering better progression systems, like hiding certain films initially. Balancing the economy is tough but I’ll keep refining it until the Steam demo!
Thanks for all the feedback!
