Like madman said you can do plat related businesses such as rentals (like setk). You could even open a town specifically for something such as a zoo which uses fee doors or something else which may involve a fee door to generate gold.

seems as if there are 3 possibilities for businesses...

for me: check check and check

gotta find something new to get into the biz i think hippo :P

 

(minigame business has been done by me also.. you could try and set a good one up if you can think of lots of good minigame, but this would also mean prizes would have to be given out)


Never forget the friends you've made, and the memories you've had.

Like madman said building businesses are risky and can end up with the idea not catching on and all you see is tumbleweed. If you enjoy building and you would have built the buildings anyway then I guess it's not a risk as no loss... and what you said about a kissing booth sounds creepy lol (remember there isn't even a gender for 8bits). :P

 

Madman I also want a Steak King™ franchise in both my main towns if possible? I want a regular one like yours in Hell and then maybe a glass one in tele rare? Only if you don't mind and I have enough glass to make the one at rare if you're wondering...

Adding on to this subject, I run the Bank of Spades (One-time membership fee) and the 8Bit Historical Museum (Nonprofit), both of which cost me quite a bit to make, but barely bring in any gold. As far as businesses go, what business you go with depends on if you're seeking to make a profit. A long time ago, I had a block shop that sold any gold item at a reduced price to help out new players and builders. Needless to say, I was losing gold on that shop. Honestly, in my opinion, the most profitable business right now would be a glass or road factory.

Bank of Spades doesn't make much profit but the keys are still 1k... just like membership to my museum/farm(s) (one day) lol

 

Glass Factory™ lol yeah I basically have that corp. :P

I have attempted to make a glass factory and it did work but it doesn't bring in much dough (but still making profit). but only value bought from me :( the glass business is not the best. also helping others build isn't exactly a good business as not many people need help building these days (unless it is pixel art) i tried the building business and only made about 500gold profit :(

Madman, could you perhaps build a Steak King ™ branch in Scratlantis?

 

... There's so many empty plots.

I wish there was a business stone :D. You can establish a business name, and I dunno it will do other magical things!

Advertising wouldn't exactly be the best thing to add into the game cuz it might spam chat if it is advertised in chat. there should be a government as well that can TM company's and stuff

It isn't exactly the best money making business. I have opened up steak king in many different towns but i still haven't earned back enough money to pay for the ovens. Farming gold is a good business. apart from plat you can't really get rich from business's unless 8bitmmo made a stock market
