It's a good management game. Some SoundFX would be great ! The possibility to see and build one tiles that are behind buildings is necessary.
The gameplay is cool, I love that !

@trystan-sarrade Thanks for playing and commenting. You can orbit camera with right click.
Pretty fun game. I played through a couple of times: (1) first time I tried building the roads as things popped up... bad idea. (2) I built essentially a loop highway where everything could be touched, worked out much better.
Good job. I wish there was audio, and the trucks were fluid animations.
Pretty nice entry, it was relaxing to look at the city growing by itself. Some sound would have been nice. But otherwise this was a pretty solid management game.

Nice work, I love the blocky, simplistic art style. Like others have said, sound would be nice (I could just have youtube playing some chiptune music in the background I suppose) , but over all it is a very fun and addictive game. I will probably be playing this one again!
Had fun! Was able to see most of the combined buildings (combines 4 times I think), though it was hard to get the same buildings next to each other without some other building spawning where you wanted to place the next one (seemed to happen a lot for me). Perhaps you could remove buildings to get some gold back, and so you could arrange the city as you want (though I guess the buildings spawning add some variation). Nice building models, good job!
Wow... Thank you all for your kind comments and to-the-point advice. Feels like I need to polish more (like truck position lerp) @aeveis @bloc97 @niccolas-suprik @squabbler
@aeveis removing function is actually made at first but somehow I hide it... Cuz the original idea was you can't add buildings on your own, but just wait for spawning and remove those not working well. I should reveal this functionality back though, with like 5 gold blocks needed for removing(after my vacation lol
The combining mechanic is neat, but imo could use some tweaks to allow the player to control where the combined building goes, or at least see where they will combine to. It seems like it always combines on the position of the oldest building, but that wasn't obvious in the gameplay. Also it seems that buildings that combine lose their blocks.
@the-icy-one Yeah as you go deeper, definitely there's more details to fix and tweak. Thanks for pointing out
I just adore the little animations and visual style. I can see a bigger game here! Great job guys!
Oh how I love the animations and the building designs. Gameplay-wise, could not really follow and didn't really feel challenged. But really liked the style. I think with better feedback to the player and clearer goals, there is something special here!
@carlos-giraldo The design tries to make you properly deploy builds and roads so that each type(color) of block can be produced at their fastest speed. But clearly the production speed is far from getting finely tweaked to make it very challenging, you are fucking damn correct about this lol
@shrekshao I loved the animations and the art style of ur game, liked playing ur game. would like to play the full version of the game.
Cool game! I played it for quite a while, it's definitely addicting. It's impressive how many different building models you were able to create in such a short time. It would be nice if there was an option to speed up the game. Great job :)
I like this game a lot. It could definitely be better with some better balancing, but it is already a ton of fun as it is.
Awesome game! really enjoyed the mood and graphics for this entry!
Really fun game! I definitely played a lot longer than I was expecting lol.
One thing that I noticed though that got a bit frustrating was that the trucks never seemed to bring the red blocks to my businesses.
They seemed to always prioritize the factories, so the cycle would end up like: - Truck brings Red to Factory - Factory makes Black and Purple - Truck brings Black to Apartment and Purple to Business - Apartment makes Red - Repeat
This ended up with my businesses having tons of purple, but rarely got the reds they needed to make the "good stuff."

I also kind of wish you could destroy/rebuild roads since I kind of messed up some placements towards the beginning. Agree with other comments that sound effects/audio would be a nice touch too.
Really fun and addicting game though!
@laurim Wow! Thanks for this feedback. Honestly I never played this long to discover this bug. (The deliver task actually push to a queue. it might be because when business task ask for red there's always nothing left?) But certainly a valuable feedback. And thanks for playing this game!
Really fun! I like city building games so this is right up my alley!
