Hello everyone, since I am - like most of you - a big fan of the classic SimCity series I thought about creating my own project in that kind of style almost five years ago. I hope it's ok to tell you about my project in here. My project is called Road to your City and is a city building and management game with a heavy emphasis on football. If I might introduce myself: my name is Christian, I am living in Germany, I am 35 years old and work as a senior software developer. In my spare-time I am working on the project for almost 5 years now. I did everything by myself (except for sound & music since I don't have the talent) - the concept, the game engine, all kind of graphics and the gameplay programming of course. I thought to sign up over here because there might be some people being interested in my project. The game already ran through two alpha stages and will be released in 2019. In my Discord channel there is already a small but very nice community with some enthusiasts really loving the game, testing and supporting it. End of January I am going to start a Kickstarter campaign (including a demo version) which is meant to lift the game on another level concerning graphics and audio but it won't have any influence whether the game will be released or not - the game will definitely be released in 2019 as an Early Access (if the Kickstarter works out I will be able to make a full release by the end of the year). Whoever read this post until here - which makes me really happy by the way - might be interested in more information. Here is another short description of the game and its current features. Road to your City is a city building and management game with a heavy emphasis on football. Slipping into the role of mayor, you are tasked with growing your city from a tiny village while simultaneously establishing a successful football club. Meet the wants and needs of your citizens and allow your city to flourish, all the while developing your football club from grassroots to world class powerhouse. Build a city for people to live and work in. Create homes and provide jobs. Found a football club, adding and developing talent as it grows. Install and maintain training facilities to provide your players with the best development environment possible. Enter your club in competition, starting with the district league all the way to the premiere competitions in world football. Construct a football stadium and use your inevitable success on the pitch to attract new supporters. React to security, satisfaction and population developments by upgrading or expanding your city with the buildings it needs. Deal with unpredictable events such as players leaving or hooligans causing trouble in your stadium. Further your city’s financial situation by providing services like TV, fan shops, and banks. Request and acquire funding to develop both your city and club. And much more! Here are some additional screenshots: If you're still reading the post - I have even more information. Since October 2018 I'm also on YouTube releasing devlog videos regularly. In these videos I am talking about the development progress over the last few weeks and the future plans. Here is a link to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiQxQHUVo608vL11_czbiKw Here's the first in that series: I'm also using the following social media: Twitter: https://twitter.com/yheekygames Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yheekygames Discord: https://discord.gg/BwTx373 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yheekygames IndieDB: https://www.indiedb.com/games/road-to-your-city I'd be happy for any kind of feedback and maybe we'll see each other on any platform. Thank you very much for your attention! Cheers, Christian (Yheeky)

CINEMA GOD - A campaign-based simulation game [Dev Blog]
Borrego6165 posted a topic in Strategy Games
Dev Blog link! Hello, please check out my new dev blog series for a game that I am working on. Thankyou! -
Thought it would be interesting to share this upcoming game. Described as a "riot simulator", the game aims to let players experience riots corresponding with real-world events while also educating about how riots themselves work. Players will be able to control both the protesters and the police in each scenario, choosing between a peaceful demonstration or a violent beat-down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jWYCXneCn8 Basic Info ---------------- So, is it "Riot" or "RIOT"? Because the latter is much more badass. RIOT, of course. I think the game looks sick. Therefore, I would like to know a release date. RIOT is in active development, but still at an early stage. It is therefore currently impossible to announce an eventual release date since it depends on multiple factors which we cannot predict. We will announce it as soon as possible, and we also hope to have a demo soon. Stay tuned for that! EDIT: The beta version for tablets is scheduled for November. Will the PC/Mac/Linux version be sold on Steam ? Apparently yes! Besides PC/Mac/Linux, iOS, Android, Ouya, will this game be on PS4, WiiU, Windows phone, Xperia Play, Blackberry Z10, Commodore 64? We are interested in bringing the game to all the possible platforms, whether it makes sense and it's possible (considering specs, controls etc…) but we can only support a certain number with the current budget.
