CEO Simulator

Game flow

1. The player performs an action;
2. States are updated based on the chosen action;
3. A daily event is triggered:
   a. First, events that match the action taken and the current states are filtered. If there’s more than one, one is chosen at random;
   b. If no event passes the filter, a neutral or global event is chosen at random;
4. The player chooses how to respond to the current event;
5. States are updated based on the response to the event;
6. End the current day;
7. Check whether the game fits any endgame condition (bankruptcy, bad reputation, company took off, day 20, etc.).
