Could you build this?
Partial While the tycoon game loop and persistent backend are straightforward, building an optimized in-browser 3D low-poly globe/map simulation that runs smoothly on mobile requires specialized game development expertise.
What it would actually take: Requires Three.js / WebGL or Babylon.js for rendering a multi-country 3D map with low-poly route meshes, spatial indexing (like H3 or S2 geometry) for real-time pathfinding, and a persistent backend (Node.js/Go with Redis and PostgreSQL) to tick idle job states across disconnected sessions. Game optimization, asset compression, and mobile GPU performance tuning are the primary engineering hurdles.
