Television Programming

The Television Game is a computer gaming simulation of programming a television station. Each player manages their own television schedule in competition with the others. The simulation sets the ground rules and keeps track of everything that everyone does -- purchases, expirations, schedules, ratings, and budgets. What happens is entirely up to you.

Can you make a million dollars in the first thirteen weeks? Or will you go bust?

The simulation is written in Visual Basic. It runs in Windows and needs VBRUN100.DLL.
