I loved playing this game so much as a kid. Its inspired me to create my own game using the same aesthetic [1]. Im basically answering the question "what if RCT was a city builder?"

Thanks Chris!

I've had this wishlisted since you put it on steam! Any hints on when it will be available?


Aiming for EA by the end of the year :)


I very well know it might be impossible, but you're in the exact market that is often profitable on Mac. Please consider releasing on our beloved platform if it's at all possible.


I plan on porting at some point during early access. The graphics engine already supports Mac, and the game is C++, so shouldn't be too difficult


If you do port to Mac, do not forget to port your demo as well. Very often demos are Windows-only and that can definitely impair my purchasing choice.


And Linux/SteamOS? If it's Windows it could "just work" with Proton, but a native Linux build would be amazing


I’ve seen this before. Have to admit I’m mostly attracted by the 1998 in the title. Childhood good times were had :)


Looking great! Any chance of having g really tight economics management?

Lots of potential to be an amazing city simulation game


I plan on diving deep into economics at some point, but not immediately.


Looks amazing!


Reminds me of Jagged Alliance 2. They don't make games so good anymore.


Looking forward to this!


Wow I love the look of this. Wish listed!


Love the aesthetic! Good luck!
