Description

A cozy tycoon game about growing a tiny warehouse into a logistics empire. Land bigger deals until trucks, trains and ships bring work to your door. When money gets tight, a crime syndicate pays big for a few unmarked crates. Just hope the driver isn't an undercover cop.

Shelf-Made Tycoon is a cozy tycoon game about growing a tiny warehouse into a logistics empire. You start with one small building and not much money and every good deal you land turns into more space more clients and bigger ones, until trucks and trains and ships are all bringing work to your door. When money gets tight a local crime syndicate starts calling with big cash for a few unmarked crates *cough cough* but any one of their vans could be driven by an undercover cop and getting caught means losing everything. Even when it all runs smoothly it is oddly relaxing to just zoom in and watch it work.

Guaranteed next day delivery. Somehow.

Summer midday: trucks at the dock doors and an open contract card from Lumen Textiles that fits. The feeder ship alongside the quay, three cranes working her. A close-up of stocked racks with forklifts working in the aisle. Snow on the warehouse roof and a full lot of trucks at the doors. The siding train at the rail dock, a wagon of pallets being unloaded. An autumn afternoon with trucks lined up at the dock doors. The goals list after opening the second warehouse. A winter night: the warehouse hall lit up and headlights on the road. Both warehouses and the siding train seen from above.

How it was made

The game's AI disclosure, as published on its Steam page:

Shelf-Made Tycoon was created under our own creative direction: the ideas and vision behind it are ours, and AI was one of the production tools we used to build it. The game's code, text, 3D models and icons were created using AI tools, with the imported models built in Blender from concept sheets we briefed and approved, and the rest of the world built in code. Its music, sound effects, ambient sound and translations into 13 languages were generated with AI, as were parts of our store page and marketing materials, including the trailer's music. Nothing in the game is generated by AI while you play.
