Tycoon/management games are a well-loved genre that the public mostly associates with PC gaming, but does it have to be that way?

I strongly believe this genre has a place on consoles, and it all comes down to an optimized player experience. Revamped menus, enhanced UIs and refreshed gamepad controls are necessary to ensure the best experience possible — and that’s precisely what we tried to achieve (and hopefully succeeded!) with Startup Company Console Edition.

The never-before-seen game engine we adopted optimizes the user experience, especially considering its “menu heavy” game genre. As you progress in the game, the menus will adapt and provide you with the more meaningful actions first, minimizing the need to navigate through endless sub-menus.  Additionally, we’ve adopted a radial menu setup for the Xbox version, so you’ll find navigating through the menus to be an intuitive and easy experience. Less hassle, more fun!

Are you convinced yet? Want to take over the corporate world? Start your journey as a CEO of a humble team and build your own empire!

You will have full control of your journey, so plan things wisely! Hire and train a competent team, while also maintaining their workplace happiness (some CEOs seem to forget this part, don’t let that be you!); Discover and try new marketing strategies (and how to best invest your hard earned profits); Oh, and of course, who doesn’t like a well decorated and inviting work space? Customize your offices and give them a personal touch (your employees and your eyes will thank you).

I hope this short introduction will entice you to give this game genre a try on Xbox, as I truly believe that there’s a lot of potential and creative ways to make these types of games work on consoles, allowing a bigger audience to be able to experience them. Gaming should be for everyone, everywhere! Enjoy Startup Company today on Xbox.

Your company’s success depends on your ability to run and manage a website. You must develop and improve features while increasing hosting capacity and run marketing campaigns.

The city offers you offices in all sizes and shapes. It’s up to you to select the most suitable. It’s your job to organize and decorate the office while keeping your employees happy.

Your employees are a vital part of your success. As you grow, you must continue recruiting more people. Over time, your employees will start demanding more of you and the company. It’s your job to keep them happy, before your competitors send them a job offer they can’t reject!

There’s no website without stable and reliable servers. As your website attracts more traffic, you’ll have to move from virtual servers to your own fully featured hosting center.

The goal is obvious: become the biggest website in the industry. It’s up to you if you want to buy and merge your competitors or outrun them until they go out of business!
