The Chairman is now available for Playtest on Steam.

If you've been following the game and want to try it before Early Access launches, now's your chance. Playtest access is free request it from the Steam page and I'll approve you manually.

What's in the Playtest:

  • Two-division league with promotion, relegation, and playoffs

  • National Cup

  • Summer and winter transfer windows

  • Contract negotiations and wage management

  • Full economy with bankruptcy risk

  • 30-season Challenge Mode with global leaderboard

  • Compact widget mode for second-screen use

I built this to run in the background while you work or study, configurable simulation timer from 1 to 20 minutes, two natural pause points per season, no constant interruptions.

Looking specifically for feedback on: first impressions, economy balance, and whether the second-screen experience actually works.

Thanks for following the game, your feedback directly shapes what goes into Early Access.
