Every have been on Facebook? Ever asked yourself how it is to manage one of the biggest services in history?

Try it out!

Help people around the whole world to be connected with each other. Help them to share interests and ethnics. Help them to send messages from home, take pictures on the way.
The more users you have the more features they will request.
But whatch out! Running a service costs money and with money there always comes stress...

There are no specific controls. Everything can (has to be) be done with mouse.

Instructions are avaliable ingame but skippable.

Music can be turned of in options.

There is a Highscore list at the end.

Good look and enjoy gaming :)

Cool game with original concept, but it seems to me it bugged. In example I can't buy a server when I restart a game. Strange. Thank you ++

@Geckoo1337 I upload while developing. The new version has some cleanup und restart and I don´t have any problems with buying anymore :)

This is amazing! How did you do this so quick?
breskin200024 Aug 2014, 08:35
I don't know how do you did that, but game is awesome.
ViliX24 Aug 2014, 09:41
Nice idea :)

It's Original, Love It!

This game is really original. I love this new gameplay. You are one of my favorites. Thank you for your contribution ++
xbmdavross24 Aug 2014, 15:39
the problem is more people doesnt - more income, so it gets hard to keep people / servers happy when you buy everything and then it starts going down
Silveryardauthor24 Aug 2014, 16:12
@xbmdavross: Currently I'm working on some new Features you can buy but you're right at some point there is an end as you can' t buy infinite Features. But my goal is to see you loosing before you've bought the last ;)

Good game, why did I die?
Silveryardauthor24 Aug 2014, 16:50
@vogon101: If your money or your users satisfaction becomes 0 the game is over :)

This is cool. Simple and clever.
maxkm5st124 Aug 2014, 18:40
really cool but i had all of the features and a few servers in minutes
nonetheless25 Aug 2014, 06:57
That's a nice game. Would like some more colours :)... and I feel music doesn't fit (although big thunmbs up for making the music :) ) All in all quite enjoyable!

Nice to see something on theme that didn't involve planets.
ViliX25 Aug 2014, 12:32
One of my favourites. You should do some post-compo version.
Slooowpoke25 Aug 2014, 12:36
Was having great fun, then I bought servers all around the world and something must have gone wrong like my server costs exceeding my income. It would be nice to have some kind of game over message telling me how I lost because I felt a bit cheated. Game is quite easy, but I really liked the features that you can add to the servers. I think more of those and some way of servers crashing if you exceed users(might already happen and I didn't realise). I'd like to see more from this game, nice one!

Good take on the theme! Interesting little management game.
Pantelis Petsopoulos25 Aug 2014, 12:40
Epic game! It's lacking a bit of clarity on the graphics though. I'd love to play it again. 9/10

Interesting/awesome idea, also reminded me of Plague.inc (and friends). Liked the homemade music.

Think the gameplay could be a bit better balanced. Graphics were a bit too bland for my taste.

Interesting board game-y game. Felt like I was watching a real analytics dashboard

Cool concept. Thought at first it would go on to infinite, but then I realized the troubles of gaining a larger user base. Well done and very interesting! Creds for the instructions and the ability to turn of the music. Great learning curve.
McFood25 Aug 2014, 12:51
Really enjoyable social network clicker/sim type thing =)
I'm glad noone is dissatisfied by all the servers being full all the time, that might make it even harder.
Great Work!

Intriguing
A lot of thing to understand to can play.
De sounds is a little repetitive, but is a good sound.
Gameplay interesting.
A little more feedback about the actions of player would be nice.

But overall gameplay is nice. I like it!
