Launched this week
Run a software startup from a garage to an IPO. Ship features, squash bugs, hire a team (and a dog), survive the burn rate, and learn real SaaS metrics inc. MRR, churn, LTV, CAC, while a dry announcer narrates your every mistake. Free, in your browser, no signup required.
How does the burn rate actually change based on hiring and shipping speed, or is it mostly on a fixed curve as you progress?
How deep does the simulation go with real SaaS metrics? Like, does it actually pull in formulas for LTV/CAC or is it more of a vibe check on the numbers you see in the dashboard?
How deep does the simulation actually go on the metrics side - does CAC factor in real conversion funnels or is it just a flat input number? Curious whether this teaches actual unit economics intuition or just the vocabulary.
Does the gameplay actually reflect realistic SaaS math, like churn compounding on MRR over time, or is it more of a vibes-based simulation with loose numbers attached?
Does the dry announcer comment get harsher as you near runway zero, or is the narration basically the same on every run?
How realistic are the SaaS metrics, like does the churn actually model real retention curves or is it more arcade-style randomness?
How does the dry announcer actually know when you're making a mistake? Is it reacting to real gameplay decisions or just narrating scripted scenarios based on which metric tanks?
