I built a browser game that teaches café economics

Hi, my name is Stefan and I keep daydreaming about opening a café and wondering if the numbers would actually work.
So I built Café Empire, a business simulation where you run a café, set prices, hire staff, manage stock and suppliers, take loans, and all your decisions generate real financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow).

There's a Student Mode aimed at people learning accounting or entrepreneurship, where it adds quizzes built from your own numbers, "explain this" tips on every line, and CSV export for Excel/Power BI, but also Tycoon mode for more advanced functionalities like franchising, opening a roastery, rivals, market share, reviews & reputation, seasons, etc.

Would love feedback from anyone who's thought about opening a coffee business or teaches business/finance. Happy to give free access to educators.
