01 · The problem
A player-to-player trading game dies if there's nobody to trade with at the start, or if the economy inflates.
02 · The decisions
- Declared trading houses that guarantee someone to trade with from day one.
- Sealed lots and a public appraiser who rates every piece.
- The economy was tested first in a prototype, so it doesn't inflate.
- Four visual directions tested; tycoon won, vibrant but polished.
03 · The result
In progress, with the economy already tested before coding it.
