The product
What it does, and for whom
An idle tycoon with toy-like isometric art: hands-on at first, then increasingly automated, so the game shifts from serving customers to managing a growing business.
Scope The publisher runs the game and its store presence. To keep the client confidential, the game's name is withheld and every image on this page is new artwork recreated for this portfolio, not a screenshot of the delivered game. The street and shops in these illustrations are a fictional setting; the delivered game has its own theme.
Core loop
Running the shop
A shop in full swing: cooks at the grill, a stack of food at the counter, customers at tables and in the queue, and cars waiting at the drive-thru.
Cook and serve
Make the food and bring it to the counter and the drive-thru window.
Collect earnings
Each served order adds to the cash waiting at the counter.
Hire and upgrade
Staff automate the work; upgrades make them and the equipment faster.
