But I play games to escape reality.
From their Steam page:
Per-person behavior simulation: Each person is different, except they’re all bald.
Fuckin lol 😂
The dev being from the Netherlands adds a little sting to it, looks great
Does this allow you to bulldoze poor/minority neighborhoods in order to build a new highway? If I’m gonna parking lot sim, I want to be able to fully RP as Robert Moses
I hope they allow us to cut funding to trains and other public transport.
Don’t forget about being able to build overpasses too low for buses to fit.
I do like the thought of Moses rolling in his grave over the fact that they eventually started building lower buses.
Imagine 30 years later when they eventually just build really long limousines to transport all the people. Also don’t forget to design the roads with smaller curve radii so only short cars can fit trough, thus eliminating the limousine problem
Nah, at that point you just need articulated limos!
Have you just invented the bendy bus limo?
Whenever you don’t have enough resources for something you just open the pause menu and threaten to quit the game.
Nah, just issue bonds. Surely this suburban development pattern will be profitable enough to pay back your debts in a couple of decades
You have to walk through a parking lot to get to and from the car. The bigger the lot the more walkable the city. Checkmate.
Step 1: declare the whole city a car park.
Step 2: declare all spots within a 5 mile radius disabled parking only.
It’s pretty rough around the edges but man, I love this visual style already. Color me interested!
If you’re talking about the visual style, it borrows pretty heavily from SimCity 2000 and Roller Coaster Tycoon 2. You might like those as well.
Thanks a bunch for these recommendations. :-). I think SC2000 was my first real love. RCT a close second. I guess it’s just genetics 😂
We are kindred spirits, then!
I’ve seen 3 major highways built around Detroit while I’ve lived here. There was very little choice among normal citizens who live in the line of “progress”. 375 ruined some dynamic neighborhoods because those people lacked the power to force a change in the proposals. 696 spent significant additional money accommodating the citizens who had the power to modify the proposals. Highways make cities very unwalkable as well as taking space that could be better used
To be fair, no one wants to live next to a factory, so the highways become a necessity at some point.
The screenshot is fake. Everybody knows that massive parking lots are almost always nearly empty! /s
Spiff does this with Cities Skylines.
Don’t tell him I drink coffee 🙊
Deplorable bean juice quaffer!
I wonder if it has the feature of being able to introduce bad public transport options where you can stick a train station in the middle of some busy road lanes on each side, put Parkway on the end of the name and call it a day.

the link doesn’t seem to be working
I was on my phone so I decided to just assume that lemmy would auto link it for me, but it didn’t. So I’ve added it manually now for you.
Cities Skylines?
Cities Skylines will punish you pretty badly if you don’t have good public transportation and bicycle roads
Maybe it’s changed since I played it, but I disagree with that statement. They punish you if you don’t have many public transport and bicycle roads. But they also railroad or force you to make bad cities with bad car-centric layouts.
