Long description
Venturebound is a tycoon game about building a technology company from nothing.
You start alone in a garage in a modern city. You choose a sector (AI, cloud infrastructure or hardware), hire your first people, research technology and build your first product. Then you have to price it, sell it, and keep enough cash in the bank to make the next one.
How you grow is your decision. You can take contracts and grow on your own revenue, or raise money from investors and move faster with less control. You can stay focused on one kind of product or spread into the other sectors.
You are not alone in the city. Rival companies hire from the same pool of people, sell into the same markets and raise from the same investors. They play by the same rules as you, so they can beat you, and you can beat them.
As the company grows you move out of the garage into bigger offices, furnish them, and watch the city change around you.
Features
- Three sectors to start in. AI, Cloud infrastructure and Hardware.
- Hire and keep people. Every employee has skills, traits and goals of their own. Rivals will try to hire your best ones.
- Research and build. Research technology, then turn it into products. Decide how big to build and when it is good enough to ship.
- Price and sell. Set your prices, watch the market and take contracts to pay the bills between launches.
- Raise money or bootstrap. Investors bring cash and opinions. Growing on your own revenue is slower, and the company stays yours.
- Furnish your office. Move from the garage to real offices and set them up for the people who work there.
- Rivals that play fair. Competing companies hire, build, price and raise money by the same rules you do. Nothing is scripted.
