We’re building our own venture capital video game!

Our Goals & Inspirations
As Seen On:
Thanks for taking the time to check out our campaign! Allow us to give you a brief rundown of what we’re about and how you can get involved. When creating "Crazy Startup Idea" we reminisced over our fondest gaming experiences and how much we learned from them. When you’re not trying to learn, you usually end up learning SO much more while having a lot of fun doing it!
Our game is an educational full-motion video game, which will be released on Mac, PC and Steam! We have drawn similarities to successful interactive films such as Black Mirror’s Bandersnatch and Telltale games. With the educational prowess of Masterclass or Skillshare, this revolutionary idea means that we can use our plethora of expertise in the startup and venture capital world to create a live-action video game and YOU will get to experience what it’s really like to start your own company (and the many pitfalls along the way).
Over the last 2 years, our team at MeetFounders have talked to hundreds of real venture capitalists and founders who shared keen insights on their personal experiences raising hundreds of millions of dollars. We want to share this knowledge with startups and gamers around the world! This game is the answer, and we spent a long time developing a demo that would show the potential of what we want to create.
Skip the reading & play our 1-hour demo located on Kickstarter!
This is a 1-hour demo to show the type of game we want to make. It took us months to develop and it includes real advice from Venture Capitalists, startup founders, and lots of humour. It gives you a taste of what we'd like to make!
Controls and game features
Select a player and experience their startup
In the full game, you will control 1 of the 5 main characters along their journey to create their very own startup. The playable character in the demo, aptly named The Founder, will be one of many characters you will be able to control in the final game. The aspiring entrepreneur wakes up one day with a newfound motivation to finally fulfil his startup dreams: Your goal is to help him achieve these, but what is a business without a budget? You will need to raise capital in order to keep your company thriving, but money isn’t only for keeping on top of your expenses, it also allows you to take opportunities that you normally couldn’t! Use the money you earn from higher scores to unlock more options, upgrade your business, customise, discover secrets, and much, much more!
