DesignerCity : City Building game app

[IL. 1,043]

Hi,

 

I have been making a city building game app with someone for months, I'm making the graphics.

It's now launched, play it, and let me know what do you think

 

It's like a mini Simcity, it have game stats that shows you the desirability of the zones, happiness (the less happy the less revenues), simple terraforming, and other features...

Oh, and if you have buildings' suggestions for the game let me know and I'll try to make it

The screenshots looks very good. I won't be playing, unfortunately, I'm an Apple guy!    Can I expect an iOS version?

Yeah many of my friends are on iOS too, it won't be available on it soon, it costs money to have a developer account on iOS and many other things, while Google is free  

You can play it on pc though using this: http://www.andyroid.net/

It will be available for iOS if it is successful on android

Looks very cool! How many GBs of memory does it cost, though?

Looks great.. about to download it and try it out!

I downloaded it. It is fun for a game on my phone but I pretty much stopped playing games on my phone a while ago. I like the futuristic theme.

Not catchy I guess, I always thought that such games are better played on pc (or tablet), a big screen basically, but it's tool late for that

I'm glad that you liked it, feel free to leave a feedback and rate it

Any advices to make it better would be great too

I have tested it today and the models look so great! The only thing I don't really like is that every house gets more expensive when you've already built one before. But I guess that's the only way to make some money with the app. Has someone really bought something with real money yet?

Thanks, yes it's as you said.

There aren't many people playing it yet, just few people that I know, and maybe the few here on Simtropolis, it takes time to get known, maybe monthes

I like the game more than most others I played on my phone. I reached level 17 and have almost 1,500 population without having to spend real money yet.

Cool

What's your city name? I'll take a look  

I made a small one, it's the one called Ayed

You can play a lot without paying anything, but later you have to use gold to buy many of the cool buildings, you also get some gold when you pass levels and in some achievements

I was rather unoriginal. I named my city Marcopolis.

Is this the first app you ever made? Or do you have some more experience? It looks pretty awesome for non professionals.

I just did the graphics, the programmer made other two games https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Sphere+Game+Studios

But I'm intending to learn some programming too

Well Ayed is my last name, so.. I was not creative either, haha

It looks like a nice town

For upgrade later I guess I'll make the buildings' upgrades' graphics, and maybe some more roads types

Wow this is neat! Just Installed it on my ASUS eee pad and it works with no hitches at all

 

Only played it for a short while but I am impressed. Keen to see where you go with this. Hopefully finally a city building game that can be played on a tablet without all the DRM that are in other games... Hopefully!

 

Will users be able to make custom content for this game?

Hey there,

 

I'm glad that you liked it, I enjoy playing it too actually.

I don't think users will be able to make custom content for the game, it's an app after all, but I'll be glad to make the buildings that you suggest some time.

[Dazzyls 576]

I named my city Rave City BTW. Same as my Minecraft city.

Marcopolis is doing very well. Since I last posted, I realized that the price of buildings eventually go from cash to gold as you build a certain amount. In order to maximize population at only level 25, I had to spend some of my gold reserves on high capacity housing. However, I have yet to run out of gold so I should run into no problems for at least a week. I don't have much money to spend on in-app purchases but I might spend up to $20 over the lifetime of any app. Once I hit the $20 mark, I usually change play style or stop playing the game.

That's true, but there's still plenty to play without gold, it would just take longer.

Btw, there are some buildings that you can buy with gold, and will later keep generating gold instead of cash, there are some commercial buildings that does that, and the gold mine, also upgrading them is free (but it costs alot if you want to make the building upgrade instantly), so the difference is time.

Later on when you can't play without gold or the game is too slow, you can get a gold mine and it wil generate gold over time, it will also give more gold when you upgrade it.

For now, if a building costs gold instead of cash, you can just build the other ones available, there will also be new buildings unlocked at each level, so that will give you plenty to work with for your city The best is unlocked at the higher levels

I have taken a look on your city btw, it's cool

My city is called Nowhere 

We're still going to change and add some graphics, like changing the water, maybe allow to make canals for the city, new road types, etc.. Maybe more than 2x2 tiles buildings' too later.

I may had broke your game. Dyharrasburg is now the largest city on your game now. Quite a lot of things to say, but I'll prefer to do my own review on some place at a time soon.

hey, u guys made a designer city 2 right? ITs been awesome. Just saying, I kinda want unlimeted space, and keep on expanding, like once you runned out of room, on a map, u add a second map expanding. Like a big expansion, with small expansions in between. Pls replie, I really like ur graphics and hills and stuff, but I really want this wonderful game to be unlimted. And in designer city 1, had monorrail. My city in designer city 2 they have trains. And now my trains have train tracks on roads. LOL. Oh, and add highways pls. I end up making loop a loops trying 2 make highways. Thx

I named my city Sparktlon Hills. BTW Pls Reply

BTW, on the first picture at the top, it looks like the city has a bridge highway. How did that happen? And pls bring back the police and fire Headquarters back from Designer City 1 to Designer City 2. I missed having 2 types of fire stations.
