Getting started building a "Manager" simulator style game

knockoff · 2023-01-24T10:23:41

Hello, I want to build a ‘manager’ style game. A bit like Football Manager but for business. It would be 2D with limited graphics but the game needs to simulate how variables evolve (i.e. money made) as the player takes actions. I have no game development experience. I have downloaded Unity and a, looking at their tutorials but I don't even know what ‘type’ of things to learn. I have no interest in learning about 3D graphics, shooters or anything like that. Can anyone give me some keywords to search for so I can learn the skills I need to make this game? Thanks, KO

Thank you @m_waddams , @yannik and @flodihn .

This Godot thing looks particularly promising (it actually has simulator games showcased!) and the Feathers UI could be good too. I appreciate your suggestions.
