The Company takes you on a brutal trip through the business world, simulating every aspect of a company's rise to world domination. Using more than 50 variables, the game's engine can calculate precise growth figures and takes into account a huge amount of factors, from political tensions in neighboring countries to your employee's happiness with their salaries.

The game is currently in pre-alpha stage and we're looking for feedback and ideas! We have no doubt that there is a huge market of potential entrepeneurs who are interested in this genre, so we'd like to know what are your opinions and comments on the game.

The UI is very simple. If you could suggest a general design, what would it be?

We'll launch the pre-alpha version of the game in a couple of days and we're very interested in hearing from you guys on any suggestions!

The link to download it (for free) is: http://gamejolt.com/games/thecompany/243782

A few screenshots:

Select one of four unique industries, weighing every factor before you decide.  



Choose how hardcore of an entrepeneur you are by selecting the continent where you will begin.



Each continent has four different countries to further increase your choice of difficulty. Each country has different factors that are considered in your company's sales success, such as national investment on research or current economic situation.



Use your initial capital and entrepeneurial drive to start building your company from the ground up. Choose from over 80 different upgrades in Logistics, Marketing, Strategy, Motivation and Company Culture to increase your market traction and company's success.



Expect to encounter challenges around every corner as you surpass important milestones during the game. Your strategies will be constantly put at check by unexpected events.

Hi all!

We're happy to announce that we just released our first PRE-ALPHA version!
Download at: http://gamejolt.com/games/thecompany/243782

If you're going to try out the game, please read this:

- The game obviously has no tutorials or objectives, YET.
- We're looking for GENERAL FEEDBACKS as to layout, how easy the interface is and whatever you feel like commenting!
- The ONLY selectable countries are in SOUTH AMERICA!
- The Drive points and the Drive Tab (the head with the question mark) don't work yet. If clicked, the game will respond in unexpected ways.
- It'll be very appreciated, even if you just leave us a "this game is crap!" comment... (we're hoping for something more constructive, though haha)

Please bear in mind that this is an extremely early pre-alpha version.

We're really just looking to get out there and get some feedback.

Thank you!

We’re happy to announce that the new patch, version 0.2.3, is ready!

We’ve added an unconventional easter egg in the game, the first person to find Gary and comment a screenshot of him here will have their name eternalized in the game’s description AND credits as ‘first entrepeneur’!



What’s new:

-All events now have icon pictures!



-Fixed major flaws with the upgrade buttons that would cause the game to spiral out of control
-Added 10 more random events to spice things up

Free download: http://gamejolt.com/games/thecompany/243782

What’s up with Gary, though?

[corpor8creations]

We're very happy to annouce that we've decided to join Steam Concepts and showcase our development there as well.



We would really appreciate all kinds of comments and/or votes, as we're looking to improve our game and offer the best experience we can.

To help us out, just leave a vote or comment at:

In a very near future, we'll be using feedback and support gathered there to move onto Greenlight and officially launch The Company!

See you soon,

After more than 2 months planning this release, studying all metrics and tweaking economic formulas, I'm proud to say that we're finally happy with our release 0.2.4 of The Company!

The game is now very dynamic, challenging and subtle changes or decisions affect the player in very unexpected ways.

The new version adds:

• 50 Unique Events
• Expansion to other continents
• More losing conditions
• Improved game AI, harder to massively increase profits
• Better gameplay (space bar now pauses and unpases the game and esc closes windows)
• Deeper explanations on upgrades
