The game is unplayable and as I understood, the developer can't/won't update it or fix it. In fact he started a sequel for it :/
Vor gefühlt zwei Jahren groß angekündigt und jetzt, 2021 NICHTS, aber absolut NICHTS neues. Seit dem ich das Speil (2019) besitze, gab es KEIN Update. Diesen Hersteller werde ich definitiv nicht mehr unterstützen und auch dieses Spiel nicht empfehlen. Andererseits besitzt dieses Spiel so viele Bugs und Co.
Wurde leider niemals fertiggestellt, seit 2 Jahren keine Veränderungen.
Игра очень интересная, но заставляет следить за игровой валютой
Hallo, das Spiel E-Startup befindet sich noch in der gezielten Entwicklung, bitte bewerten sie es daher nicht schlecht. 2018: Early Access 2019: Kleines Update 2020: Nichts 2021: Nichts 2022: Nichts 2023: Nichts 2024: Nichts (E-Startup 2 jetzt verfügbar) 2025: Nichts 2026: Nichts [b]Betrugsmaschen sollten auf Steam verboten werden![/b] Mittlerweile kostet es nur noch 1,99€ und der Early Access Status ist seit 2024 so verschwunden, wie die Versprechungen, dass man sich auf die gezielte Entwicklung konzentriert.

E-Startup is a severely badly made low poly 3D rendered "tycoon game". What kind of tycoon game, you ask? Well, you're wrong. This tycoon game is so painfully generic [i]it doesn't have any type!!![/i]. Seriously, this "tycoon" game has you run a generic manufacturing tool to manufacture a variety of objects that you need to make to fulfill contracts... like, there's one thing that does all the work. You can buy multiples of them... but there's no factory flow at all here, no deep production lines or meaningful business optimisation decisions, this is just so generic, flat and lame. It's also slapped together badly... the numbers don't add up, some things cost more in materials than you get paid for selling them. In fact the office layout component of the game is richer and deeper than the actual tycoon component... which makes me wonder if perhaps elements of this game have been built from a template or game asset package/kit. The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the 1990s. It's unclear why the developers weren't able to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets for the game, and also irrelevant... what matters is that this looks bad as a result of their decisions, a compromise PC gamers shouldn't have to put up with. E-Startup is relatively cheap at $2 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. If this is the kind of game you are looking for, while you're barking up the wrong tree with this one, you might be able to scratch the itch with Factorio or Satisfactory (for a deep, rich construction/production line simulator), or games like Little Big Workshop, which does basically the same thing, only while being fun, interesting and charming all at the same time. Leave this painfully generic shovelware in the painfully generic shovelware bargain bin it belongs in.
--ATTENTION PLEASE-- --ACHTUNG BITTE-- Guys, save your money. Save it. Do not buy this. Graphics? Terrible. It looks like a crappy roblox game where the walls are plastic, the music sucks, and the people look like strange baby tv show monsters. Here comes the important part... It is a rip-off. Here is what it says on the steam page here- "..create products AND COMPLETE CONTRACTS.." There are no contracts now and I bought it thinking there was. The reviews are "mixed" for a reason. Notice, how none of the photos, not the videos, show the people. Thats because they look terrible. Honestly, this game feels like you are playing 'welcome to bloxburg' on roblox. Guess what fellow steam users- I refunded the game within 26 minutes. Don't be the guy like me who thought, "eh.. reviews say it is bad.. Lets just give it a shot." I hope you read this and thought this review was helpful.
Imagine - this game never got update after 0.5 version. Instead, developer released E-Startup 2 in 2024 (6 years after this game came out). I don't know what how everyone sees it, but for me - it seems developer abandoned 1st game to pursue 2nd one instead. I like premise of this game, it has lots of potential, but I will not buy 2nd part, because I don't think I can trust same developer again.
Nice game for the starting phase. Still a lot of place improvements and extensions. Very easy to play.
