Tensor Tycoon
Read full descriptionHide full description
Start with a handful of GPUs. End up mass-producing universes. Tensor Tycoon is an idle game about scaling an AI compute empire from a few graphics cards to infrastructure that spans galaxies. Buy GPUs, generate cash, mine metal, and build increasingly absurd tiers of production: chip foundries, robot factories, orbital rings, dyson swarms, and beyond. The core loop is simple: each tier produces the tier below it. But the numbers get big fast, and figuring out when to invest in a new tier versus when to keep stacking what you have is where the actual decisions live. Buy too early and your production crashes. Wait too long and you're leaving growth on the table. What's in the game: - 15 production tiers, from GPU to Multiverse Node - 4 resource systems that unlock as you progress - Production upgrades, efficiency boosts, and fusion reactors - Offline progress: your empire keeps running while you're gone - Achievements with production bonuses - Strategic reserves to protect your stockpiles This game is based on the fantastic web game SwarmSim https://www.swarmsim.com/

You can't really code. You have an LLM subscription and a dream of passive income. That's enough. VibeCode Simulator is a satirical, pixel-art founder life sim you play with one thumb: one decision card at a time — swipe left or right. Growth bros, crypto idiots, Tesla cultists, TikTok goblins, LinkedIn prophets and one very tired lawyer land on your desk every week; every choice is a temptation with a delayed cost. Five meters on the surface — Runway, Hype, Product, Heat, Sanity — and a deep simulation of fifteen interlocking stats underneath. Dragging a card shows WHICH meters a choice touches, never the numbers: you learn this world by shipping garbage into it. Fully native for iPhone: animated title, living ending scenes, haptic swipe deck. • One-thumb swipe play, haptics, dusty lofi soundtrack made for 2 AM deploys • 645 satirical events across seven phases, from broke bedroom to founder mansion • 14 collectible fates — Real Company, Alpha Bro Empire, Beloved and Broke, Out of Runway… • Daily run: one shared seed for the whole planet, once per day • Home-screen widget: today's seed & your streak. Game Center fates + daily leaderboard. iCloud sync. • Founder Graveyard: every dead startup remembered • Share your ending as a pixel card • Single-player. Offline. No account, no ads, no tracking. Ship garbage. Gain hype. Try not to become a guru.
