Build Your Empire
Start with a lemonade stand. End with a space corporation. Business Empire is an idle tycoon that grows with you across ten tiers of progression, each unlocking new mechanics and challenges.
Your businesses need employees, inventory, and space to operate. Hire workers to boost efficiency, but watch the payroll. Stock inventory before it runs out, or watch your income dry up. Rent commercial properties or face space penalties that eat into your margins. Random events will test your resilience: fires, theft, lawsuits, product recalls, and employee drama all chip away at poorly-managed empires. Insurance exists for a reason.
Developed by a solo-developer, this game is going more for realism than anything else. As an economic game enjoy-er, I have always wanted to make stocks FEEL good to trade, and I think I have come up with a system that is satisfying and allows for various play styles! Take a look at all the cool features:
55 unique business types across 10 tiers, ranging from Lemonade Stands to Space Corporations
Buy, sell, and upgrade franchises of each type
Stock inventory items and watch them decay over time if not sold

Set restock thresholds so managers buy inventory at the right time
