Making the News | Above The Fold (Early Access)
54Above the Fold is a game where we take on the role as Editor in Chief of a local newspaper in 1998 and attempt to take our media empire to new heights!
After struggling to hire reporters, we hit the ground running and begin covering some news stories. We also invest in our newspaper operation, adding things like a crossword puzzle to our paper to increase subscribers who love a good puzzle.
But how do we get on? Do we earn a readership of thousands? Or are our papers destined for the dump?
NOTE: This is the Early Access version of the game.

The year is 1998 and in the small town of Goodbury, a mysterious business man just bought the local newspaper. He fired everyone already working there, and hired you to rebuild the paper as the new Editor-in-Chief.
Above the Fold is a newspaper simulation game, where you grow and manage a newspaper. Hire the right reporters, assign them stories they like to write, and make sure to please advertisers, subscribers and the paper's owner. You also need to upgrade your paper and balance the finances - make sure to save a bit of cash in case you need to bail a reporter out of jail, or fix a plumbing issue.
