Vibe Code Tycoon

FREE DEMO — full game coming to Steam March 2027
Pick up where your dad left off and run a vibe coding centre. The business model: point AI at a problem,ship whatever falls out, sell it before the cracks show.
Start broke in a bedroom. Overdue bills, a free AI model that hallucinates,and your mum walking in with sandwiches and opinions.
Hire your crew:
Prompt Monkeys who fear the terminal, Vibe Coders who never read the diff,10x Influencers who can't code but post through it, and QA Engineers nobodylistens to. Pick an AI model and cover the bill. Then ship at volume.
Cheap operators on weak models churn out slop, and slop bleeds your revenue.
Push too hard and slop compounds. Push too little and you can't make rent.
Go viral and rival startups clone your app off your own build-in-public thread, then eat your market.
Upgrade from bedroom to dad's garage, warehouse, office, glass HQ. Placedesks, arrange decor for adjacency bonuses, build a product portfolio that pays MRR. Pick perk cards, fuse pairs for synergies, spend research points on a deterministic upgrade tree. Between runs, buy permanent Power Ups and chase achievements.
Three ways out. Get acquired. Stay ramen profitable. Or IPO and outgrow the acquirers. Payday lands whether you can cover it or not. Miss it threetimes and you're done.
