living the Dream


Manage your time as a bedroom programmer. Pick projects, contract-work and vacation days to get by, then start to build some passive income through your startup.
Beware though: Once you start hiring your first employees and upgrading your office, you'll attract the attention of competing businesses...

don't Panic!

  • You decide how each project goes and what to focus on
  • Spend a week training your staff, or earning money, or building features... but choose wisely!
  • Upgrade your company in the skill tree: Will you take longer vacations or cheaper air-co?
  • Hunt for new employees and hire the ones that fit your style: Social butterfly? Marketing expert? Lone Wolf?
  • Compete with rival CEOs for new users in your region, and then expand out by building new headquarters on a world map!
  • Hurting for cash? You can take out a loan or search for investors, but don't think it'll come for free...
