Pixel-Art Tycoon Game Development

I’m ready to start work on a fresh tycoon game that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the big names in the genre yet still feel original. The plan is to launch simultaneously on PC and mobile, so every technical and design decision—from engine choice to UI flow—must translate smoothly across desktop and touch interfaces.

Visual direction is firmly set on pixel art. I want crisp, charming sprites and environments that evoke classic management sims without looking dated or generic. Animation cycles should feel lively and responsive; tiny visual rewards for player actions are key to driving engagement.

At the heart of the experience will be deep character progression. Players shouldn’t merely upgrade buildings or resources; they should nurture staff or avatars whose evolving skills directly affect profits, efficiency, and late-game strategies. Balancing this progression loop so it feels meaningful yet intuitive will be a core focus.

What I need from you:
• A working prototype that proves out the main economic loop and character-leveling system
• Final builds for PC (Windows) and mobile (iOS & Android), each optimized for its platform
• All pixel-art assets, animations, and layered source files
• Clean, well-commented project files plus a short doc explaining architecture and balancing formulas

I’m open to Unity, Godot, or another engine you can justify for cross-platform deployment, and I’m happy to discuss analytics hooks and monetization once the core loop feels right. If this sounds like a challenge you’re ready to own end-to-end, let’s talk details and milestones.
Literally similar to others tycoons please, can me almost, its roblox game
