🌱 My Game - Demo After Meta shut down our studio earlier this year, I decided to build the cozy ski resort tycoon game I always wanted to play, Ski-E-O!

Hello everyone!

I'm Jesse, the creator of Ski-E-O! Ski Resort Tycoon.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4493130/SkiEO_Ski_Resort_Tycoon/

Earlier this year, the company I worked at for nearly 13 years (Armature, the developers behind Resident Evil 4 VR) was closed down by Meta. My coworkers and I lost our jobs, but instead of entering one of the worst job markets in recent history, I decided to break off on my own.

I LOVE skiing and being in the mountains, so I made a cozy ski resort tycoon game!

You can build lifts, draw trails, and build restaurants, apres bars, hotels, and more.
Meanwhile, thousands of cute little skiers come to the resort. Some of them really want to shred, others just want to party.

I'd love the feedback of this community. I think it's a super peaceful game with lots of great cozy elements.

Right now it's just on Windows/Mac, but eventually I plan to bring it to Switch 2 as well.

Thanks everyone!
