Install Fee Tycoon skewers the real-world Unity pricing controversy by letting you profit from reinstalling games while a greedy engine company charges developers per install. This idle clicker rewards you with unlocks, absurdist humor, and constant surprises as you climb the wealth ladder and watch the industry collapse. Perfect for fans of incremental games who appreciate sharp, topical satire delivered with genuine charm.

Really fun little parody kinda game, taking a straight shot at the Unity drama.

Charming humour. Normally the premise would've been seen as unrealistic, but gotta hand it to unity, reality is stranger than fiction

This game is fun, it's cheap, and it forced the CEO of Unity to resign in shame (not really)!

You unlock new things all the time, your Grandma emails you, and Moonstruck's logo is a butt. You literally cannot go wrong.

A masterpiece. The height of 21st Century gamedev, at a price you can afford. Memes, tropes, and callbacks galore. Proof that it does not take a multinational conglomerate to produce a quality game, or a proprietary closed-sourced platform to build it on.

A full rebrand! Install-Fee Tycoon is now "AI Tycoon"

110 days ago
Well, folks, the Unity install fee fiasco is now a distant memory. It's almost certainly already the case that 99.99% of people who see this steam page will have no idea what on earth we were even talking about. However this game, we think, is still fun! So we took the time to re-write and re-brand. But how to do it? What fits? Well, AI mania, of course! It's a perfect fit. Install-Fee Tycoon has now be transformed into AI Tycoon - to have a fun, loving poke at the current ongoing unpredictable insanity that is the expansion of AI in our economy. If you're an old player and that sounds interesting, boot the game back up and give it a shot, I'd love to hear what you think.
