Hey Product Hunt
I built Calcix Empire Simulator as a browser game inspired by real startup economics and SaaS growth mechanics.
Most business games simplify everything into “click to grow.” I wanted something deeper:
• cash runway
• churn rate
• CAC vs LTV
• pricing strategy
• debt & taxes
• AI competitors
• VC funding & IPOs
You start with a tiny garage startup and slowly scale into a massive corporation while managing employees, product features, marketing, and financial survival.
One thing I especially focused on was accessibility:
• no downloads
• no signups
• instant browser gameplay
• automatic saves
I’d genuinely love feedback on:
gameplay balance
UI/UX
progression pacing
what feels confusing or repetitive
Thanks for checking it out ❤️
