Project overview: Vultures is a desktop single-player game that combines the elements of an economic simulator with those of a manufacturing simulator such as Factorio. The game takes place in real time, with players put in charge of a manufacturing corporate empire. Players are responsible for buying plant and equipment, hiring labor, and buying and selling raw materials and finished goods.

What makes Vultures more than a Factorio clone is its economic simulation aspects. A basic economy and stock market simulation runs in the background in parallel with the manufacturing simulator. Players will be able to use money earned from their manufacturing operations to play as a day trader to earn some extra money, and use that extra money to invest in expansion. All of this is accompanied by cheerful cartoony aesthetics.

The ultimate goal of the player in Vultures is to be the last company in business (buying out or bankrupting competitors) or at least the biggest by the end of the game. Achieving this will require mastery of both factory management and stock trading, and being able to switch between the two on a moment's notice.

Hey y'all! I am happy to share a sneak peek at some of our new assets for Vultures, a manufacturing simulation game, currently in pre-alpha.

Vultures is a factory based, manufacturing simulation game with a capitalist twist. Build an industrial empire, play the stock market for quick loot, and flood an ever-changing economy with cheap junk to buy, bribe, or bankrupt your way to the highest perch.

Congrats for your first indie project.!
I guess it has some references to Tiberium Secrets?
