Become a Software Mogul

In Code Tycoon, you start in 1980 in a garage with nothing but a computer and big dreams. Take on contracts, develop software and work your way up from a one-man operation to a corporate headquarters with 100 employees.

Experience the History of Software Development

Unlock over 20 programming languages – from BASIC and COBOL to Python, JavaScript and Rust. Each language has its strengths and weaknesses. Choose the right technology for every contract.

Manage Your Company

πŸ“‹ Projects – Take on contracts from startups to government agencies. Each client has their own requirements, budgets and deadlines.

πŸ‘₯ Employees – Hire junior developers, seniors, specialists and QA testers. Train them and keep them satisfied.

🏒 Office Upgrades – Expand from the garage to a small office, then to an open-plan office and finally to corporate headquarters.

πŸ’° Finances – Keep track of revenue, salaries, rent and license costs.

Develop Real Software

Each project consists of features you need to implement. Bugs will appear along the way – find and fix them before you deliver. The fewer bugs, the happier the client and the better your reputation.

Grow With Your Clients

Build long-term client relationships. Satisfied clients return with bigger contracts and request migration projects when new technologies become available.
