Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I am a solo developer. To create not just "my game", but a project that truly captivates the audience, your feedback is vital. Early Access is the best tool for open communication with the community, allowing us to find great solutions and develop the game together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I estimate the game will be in Early Access for roughly 10 - 12 months, though I do not have an exact release date. The potential for new mechanics is huge, so I will be watching closely to see how much the game engages you. The main goal is to release a complete and high-quality product, so I won't rush the 1.0 release until I feel the game is fully ready.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I plan to significantly expand the arsenal of mechanics to make the simulation of a project manager's work even deeper, more realistic, and more fun. My goal is to develop the game both in the direction of workflow simulation and global management.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core loop (early game) and all basic project management mechanics are already implemented. At the moment, the version offers a stable and engaging experience that provides about 4+ hours of solid gameplay.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, the price will increase as new content and major features are added, and as we get closer to the full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Exactly the same way I did during the early playtests. I carefully read all discussions on Steam and social media, try to reply to every message, and gather your ideas. If players' suggestions fit the spirit and vision of the project, I gladly integrate them into the development roadmap.”

About This Game

Congratulations, you're hired! Take on the role of a Project Manager and navigate the challenging path from managing a couple of freelancers to running a massive development department. Discover firsthand why perfect plans fall apart, deadlines are missed, and the biggest threat to your release is a broken coffee machine in the kitchen. And most importantly: YOU ARE NOT THE BIG BOSS!

WASD Controls:

This is not a classic top-down tycoon. The project manager is you! Walk around the office, catch the boss at work, run the processes from your own desk, drink coffee, clean up trash and talk to colleagues using active skills. Level up your project and people management skills to become an irreplaceable specialist.

Projects Are Everything:

Get projects from the boss, plan the team's workload, hire the specialists you need, handle unplanned customer support tickets and keep a close eye on deadlines. Nobody pays for an overdue project here! And once you've grown enough, sign agile contracts: a team with a lead works on its own, all you have to do is assemble it and keep the client happy.

People: The Hardest Resource:

Every analyst, developer or tester is a person with unique traits and interests. Build your dream team: make sure geeks don't sit next to jocks, and toxic employees don't poison the rest. Watch burnout and loyalty: the one you refused a raise will sooner or later hand in their notice.

The PM has a life too:

You have energy and mood, and they affect everything. A tired PM doesn't run and doesn't motivate, and a gloomy PM drags down the whole office. In the evening you go back to your rented apartment: dinner, a shower, freelancing, a TV show or an early night. Furnish your home, plan your weekends, save up for a car. Above all, get enough sleep.

Learn to delegate:

Expand to the big office with a meeting room and new desks. Hire an HR who will find exactly the person you order, a cleaner so you don't have to sweep yourself, and a sales department that brings in fatter projects. Introduce office policies, from free snacks to short Fridays. Short on money? Take a loan from the boss.

Between a rock and a hard place:

Build relationships with clients and grow your reputation. Complete the boss's tasks to earn his trust: it unlocks office upgrades and, of course, a raise for yourself. Dozens of events and multi-step stories will keep you on your toes, from an office romance to the boss asking you to walk his dog.

Can you close them all, keep the team sane and prove to management that you are the perfect Project Manager?
