It took a while to get a feel for the simulation and see how everything is worked out quite clinically, then pretty simple to pave your path to victory. Has a nice escalation - starts out really minor with just factories and houses and struggling to get a park to stave off defeat, then building up to blocks and blocks of offices and skyscrapers. End game takes a little too long once you can see that you will win until you finally do."},{"author_name":"Tater_hater","author_uid":"21618","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 1:19am","epoch":1367457240,"text":"Wow, this is a super fun city build game.

I felt the fame limit to be too easy to reach, though; if you just keep building plenty of parks (without bothering with the higher-level buildings) you can reach it very quickly. This also caps your city growth; I played the sandbox expecting to be able to make an uber-town, only to win (and be unable to continue) because I had too much fame. Kind of defeats the purpose of a sandbox."},{"author_name":"sP0CkEr2","author_uid":"7135","time":"May 10, 2013 @ 4:50am","epoch":1368161100,"text":"nice try to do a sim game -- works pretty well -- nice job"}],"images":["ld26\/13751-5e45036b71b0d46536f9f48c15f51c88.jpg","ld26\/13751-0eb7809e85c2b0591477bb9281a1d61b.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/no-wa-ck.de\/LD\/LD26\/LD26_mini_city.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/no-wa-ck.de\/LD\/LD26\/LD26_mini_city.zip","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/no-wa-ck.de\/LD\/LD26\/LD26_mini_city.zip","text":"Linux"},{"url":"http:\/\/no-wa-ck.de\/LD\/LD26\/src.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"25288","g_author":"13751","g_event":"LD26","g_eventkey":"16","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"25318","g_title":"mini-city","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"7","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/233892\/13751-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/233892\/13751-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"My submission for Ludum Dare 26.\r\n\r\nI coundn't test on Linux and OS\/X, so I am not sure whether it works or not.\r\n\r\nIn this game you can build a minimalist city.\r\nThe goal is to make the inhabitants satisfied.\r\n\r\nI included a sandbox, in which you can not lose the game.","title":"mini-city"}
