VENTURED 2.0, the biggest update yet. • A living 3D street: your shop with seasons, weather and a real day. Step inside and see every hire at work. • The books are paper: every month is a receipt with a stamp, every decision an index card, and every run ends in a final statement you can share. • Honest money: borrow from the Federal Development Corporation. Take a Runway Loan with a year of interest only, or Seasonal Credit that follows your sales. It checks two real ratios and shows you why it said yes or no. • Keep your day job: start on a steady paycheque, save up, and see what a job would have paid next to what your business makes. • Ten years to play: founder skills, big ambitions, an inheritance for your next founder, branches, trades that help each other, and a showroom of cars, homes and jewellery whose values move. • Vee in 3D, new sounds, a calmer look, and a redesigned Settings. VENTURED is made by one person in Canada, as a hobby. Thanks for playing.
