A few words about our latest project - Espresso Tycoon

Our work on the Dreamjob: Programmer game is in full swing, however, today we want to show you something different.

You decide in which area you want to open your coffee shop, it is you who choose your target group of customers, you create the coffee, you set prices, working hours, hire employees, take care of the supply chain... making a long story short - everything is in your hand! Imagine all this surrounded by beautiful, realistic graphics, pleasant sound effects, music, and a transparent UI - this is Espresso Tycoon.

What tasks are waiting for the best devs?

Earlier, we wrote about things like your first job in the game or the basics of coding itself. However, Dream Job: Programmer has much more to offer. You will soon become fluent in programming and discover all the secrets of visual coding - after all, that's what our game is all about! But wait, there's more...

Space agency needs you!

In addition to many exciting missions, such as helping the local police to catch a hacker gang, you will be asked to help the space agency! This is a real test of your skills. You will not only have to code all the technical aspects of the rocket launch, but also plan its start sequence and take care of the safety of astronauts.

Actual Python coding skills

To do this, you will have to use a coding language known as Python. You sure heard about it. No more blocks and no more lines to connect them - just pure coding. Make use of your knowledge, learn one of the most popular coding languages and help the space agency achieve its goal!

Experience points

We are sure you know XP system from many other games in which character development is one of the main features. In most of them, you earn experience points by hitting milestones, completing tasks, or getting achievements. In Dreamjob: Programmer, you will be rewarded with them (in addition to cash and prestige!) after completing the jobs you signed for. Thanks to this, you will feel that as the game progresses, your character becomes a true master of coding. But is it only him/her?

Skill tree

Why is it worth developing your character's skill tree at all? Well, in addition to acquiring cool skills, it will make new kinds of tasks appear on your job board. For example, if you unlock the loops, the employers will find out about it, and commission you to work in this area. But there's more! In Dreamjob: Programmer, we've improved the skill tree system, and we find it very exciting. In our game, you do the tasks. It is you who learn new things. And it is you who benefit from developing the skill tree the most. Unlock the most interesting skills and learn to use them along with your character!

What is Visual Coding and how does it work?

Visual Coding is a simple yet powerful tool that will help you understand the basics of programming. The whole thing is very transparent and easy to use even for people who have never written a line of the code in their lives. Ok - but how does it work? Let's see! [olist]

Start by getting to know the properties of each block in your toolkit.

Place the blocks in the right places and in the right order.

Connect the blocks, so they can work together.

Test your code and see if it works! [/olist]

Why Visual Coding is an ideal way to start?

You don't need any code writing skills. You will create your first programs mainly using the mouse and your own mind. Simple tasks at the beginning of the game will make you get the basics in no time! If you want to understand the idea behind coding in languages like Python, C ++, C #, Java, or JavaScript, then Visual Coding will be the perfect way to start!

The main task of Dreamjob: Programmer game is to teach you coding, but let's not forget about other aspects! After all, this is a game that, in addition to learning, is meant to keep you entertained. And what's more fun in sim games than buying new properties?

Humble beginnings - garage or cozy room

Nobody was born with amazing programming skills. It's something you have to learn. Therefore, your first office will be your garage or attic room. But don't worry! You can spend the money you earn on completing tasks on changing or improving it.
You can learn about the features of selected properties and their prices in a dedicated panel. At some point (as long as you learn to program well!) you will be able to buy your own yacht and work while sailing across the open seas.

Let's make some money!

Are you ready to accept your first job? Sure you are! Fortunately, programmers cannot complain about the lack of interesting offers. Of course, you will start with something easy. Very easy. After all, we want you to get the basics.

Job Board

There are always some interesting announcements on your job board. Choose a task that matches your skills and financial requirements - it's time test your skills. Each completed job will increase your pool of experience points and will give you some cash. You can spend them on developing your career... but that's a topic for another time!

Hey future programmers! Today we want to stress our important feature which is: Special Missions. While playing Dreamjob: Programmer, you will encounter many custom-tailored missions: help regional police catching thieves with your programs, send the first rocket with female crew to the moon and many, many more! Below you can see screenshots from some of our Special Missions.

P.S. We plan to write a separate post on each Special Mission. Stay tuned for next updates!

Hey! Today we'd like to highlight our core feature: learning how to code. We currently want to support two programming techniques: visual programming and using Python programming language. The Visual Programming is a perfect way for people that have completely no idea on how to start their journey of programming. It's easy to use, easy to find problems and simply: visual. You start the game with just two blocks that you can use; with time you unlock more programming blocks and enrich the arsenal of possibilities as a programmer. In depth explanation: Let's imagine we want to write a program that shows number 13 to a monitor and you have two blocks available: Number and Monitor. You set the number to 13 in the Number block and connect its output to Monitor block. Then the Number block sends the signal to the Monitor block that shows the correct number - it's that simple! Soon we will be highlighting the Job Board with types of jobs you can execute in Dreamjob: Programmer. Till then, if you want to test our game faster - ask all of your friends to Add it to Wishlist. The faster we grow a very substantial community, the faster we will be able to release the game. And since you read this news, you are already in the first 3000 people awaiting the game! Let others know about it, too!
