Comet Tycoon

About

Build and automate your way to cosmic riches in this satirical tycoon sim. Harvest comets, entertain space tourists, recycle the broke ones, and let COMTEC help you replace humanity… one drone at a time.

Storyline

As a freelance Prospector, you’ve chosen COMTEC to supply you with what you need. COMTEC, the galaxy’s #1 comet-coloniser. Your goal? To pick a comet, extract its resources and build a destination for tourists. Grow your humble industrial site into a self-sustaining floating rock of entertainment. All the while, keeping your guests alive and spending their creds.

Land on procedurally generated comets, categorised from Trash to Exotic. Harvest raw materials, process them into valuable products, and keep your production chains running and your workers alive. Keeping visitors alive, optional.

As word spreads of your comet, space tourists and those just passing by may land; seeking shelter, snacks, or perhaps just a place to breathe. Build facilities to keep them alive (while they have creds). Entertain them with facilities like The Arquaid, or satisfy their hunger at your Noodle Joint, or perhaps they desperately need your Oxygen Bar. Careful though, is there enough for your own workers? Or yourself?

Hire workers to haul your goods around for you and when your bottom line calls, replace them entirely with cold, efficient drones. Who needs food and sleep cycles when you have power and steel servos?

Out of oxygen, food, or water? COMTEC offers recycling solution for the guest. Convert them into raw materials and process them into Soylent Peep, COMTEC's patented smoothie. A controversial (but effective!) food source. Don’t worry — the paperwork’s already been filed.

When your current rock has been tapped dry, use your earnings to move on to the next. Higher-tier comets bring more resources, more space and surging crowds of visitors demanding more from you. Who really pays attention to rumours of guests going missing anyway?
