It's not as confusing as it might look. There will be a tutorial window that will helpfully guide you through the process and introduce you to all the different windows. When first starting, it is recommended that you leave your founder's two '''personality''' traits as "Optimistic" and "Generous". The sliders on the bottom left affect the level of skill your founder has in different tasks. Increasing the skill level also increases the speed and quality at which tasks are completed.

It's supposed to be a confusing mess. There will be a tutorial window that will helpfully guide you through the process and introduce you to all the different windows.

A recommended starting build to get a hang for the game is to make your founder's two '''personality''' traits "Optimistic" and "Generous". The sliders on the bottom left can be left untouched for now, those will be explained shortly.  

Now on the right, you should increase starting money to $20,000 or one notch up if you are playing with a different currency (You may change currency through the options menu). The starting year is fine at 1980, but you should change the difficulty to "Easy" while you learn the game.  

On the right, you can take out a loan, this is not necessary for when the difficulty is on easy however if you are playing on medium or hard it will help. It is advised that you set the difficulty to easy when starting out. You can choose which year you start in although 1980 is the default and the earlier you start, the smaller rival companies will be.

Finally, the number of days in a month might seem odd. Simply put, if you leave it at the default 1 day per "Month", every day that goes by will be equivalent to a month on the in-game calendar. You can increase this if you like, most people play with 4 days in a month, but it just affects how quickly time moves and is a matter of preference. Leave it at 1 or 2 for now.

Finally, you can choose the number of days in a month. The game is designed with the one day per month pace in mind but if you feel the time is progressing too quickly you can lengthen the month up to a maximum of eight days. This stands entirely as a matter of preference though. You should leave it at 1 or 2 for now.

Go ahead and customize your founder and put a cool name for your company like "SpaceTech", "ApetureCakeProduction" or "Potato". I chose to name my company Potato. Your screen should now look something like this:

Go ahead and customize your founder and put a cool name for your company like "SpaceTech", "ApetureCakeProduction" or "Potato".
