Dojo Tycoon

What is Dojo Tycoon?

Dojo Tycoon is a management simulation game where you build a martial arts school from nothing. Hire instructors, unlock disciplines, keep students happy, and grow your reputation belt by belt.

Balance cash flow, student satisfaction, and dojo reputation as you navigate unexpected events — rival schools, equipment crises, championship opportunities, and media coverage offers.

Think Game Dev Tycoon meets Punch Club — strategy depth, martial arts soul.

Features

Everything a Sensei Needs

A complete business simulation loop — from daily tick economics to belt ceremonies and rival drama.

📈

Tick-Based Economy

Every in-game day your dojo generates leads, bills students, pays rent, and chips away at reputation — all in a pure simulation you can pause or fast-forward.

🥋

5 Martial Arts Styles

Karate, Muay Thai, BJJ, Judo, and Taekwondo — each with unique tuition rates, churn profiles, and belt progression speeds. Mix styles to build the perfect class roster.

👨‍🏫

Instructor Hiring

Hire instructors with skills in technique, discipline, and charisma. A style-matched instructor gives every student a daily satisfaction bonus — or watch retention collapse if classes get overcrowded.

🎭

Narrative Events

A rival opens nearby. A TV crew shows up. Your instructor asks for a raise. 30+ story events — each with multiple choices and real trade-offs.

🏆

Belt Ceremonies

Every promotion triggers a ripple-ring animation and toast notification. Track students from white belt all the way to black, and earn renown with every milestone.

🎵

Procedural Music

Ambient dojo atmosphere generated in real time — no loops, no repeat. One-shot SFX for joins, belt promotions, churn events, and payday.

🛠️

Equipment Shop

Invest in your dojo — heavy bags, floor mirrors, a sound system, sparring gear, video analysis rigs. Each item gives a daily satisfaction or churn reduction buff that stacks with everything else.

🏅

Quarterly Tournaments

Every three months a local tournament fires. Your roster's average belt rank determines the prize tier — a white-belt dojo scrapes bronze; a black-belt academy can take gold and a reputation surge.

🎯

Monthly Challenges

Each month a fresh goal appears — enroll 10 students, earn $3K in tuition, go 20 days without a dropout. Complete it to claim a cash and renown reward.

⭐

Student Milestones

Your students stick around. At 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year of training, a personal milestone toast fires — a small reminder that real people are showing up to your dojo.

👋

Welcome Back Summary

Been away for 6+ hours? The game greets you with a recap — cash balance, renown level, at-risk students, and monthly tuition — so you're back in context before the first tick fires.
