Candy Land Tycoon: Game Design Doc

A Tycoon game set in a Candy Land world focused on Pet Collecting, where you play as the villain.

Core loop

Droppers earn cash, cash buys upgrades that earn more cash, and pet collecting unlocks a second income stream; rebirth resets the plot for a permanent multiplier.

Monetization plan (suggested prices)

• Automatic Upgrader: R$249–599
• Golden Tycoon Tool: R$99–299
• Mega Tycoon Badge: R$49–199
• Cash Pack (large): R$199–399
• 30-minute 2x Income Boost: R$49–99
• Cash Pack (small): R$25–49

Retention hook

Offline earnings that pile up while players are away (capped at a few hours), plus friend bonuses (extra rewards when playing with friends).

Scope

A few weeks. Expect a few weeks of solo work (or a weekend with a small team) to reach a playable, monetized v1.
