A really nice and clever logic implemented into the jam entry. Really this game seems having clever mindset and creativity by its developer. A little more additional features can make the game standout.


Best of luck:D

It will be a pleasure if you play my game as well.

Cool game! Even though it's a lot to remember (I had to check info every second cause my memory is bad) everything gets introduced really well!

Quite an interesting little game! Made me have to think pretty hard about where to place new infrastructure to meet the restrictions.

If you decide to expand this game more after the jam, I think it’d be cool to have a final score depending on how everything has been developed (like whether transport hubs are well spaced-out, residential areas are compacted, etc.), and perhaps even a free-build survival-like mode, where you just need to keep expanding as much as you can.

I’ve attached an image for my final city layout too. Well done on the game!

That's beautiful!

Easy to underestand and if you dont you just try buildings till you do underestand, a pretty nice game, good job ^^

Really enjoyed this! Adding a nice big image of the finished city at the end was a nice touch. I'd love it if you expanded this with different districts/buildings giving bonuses to adjacent tiles, like schools and parks adding bonuses to houses.

Developer(+1)

nice idea! Originally when building this game I also wanted certain tiles must be next to each other along with the "disallowed adjacency" but I'm worried it might be too complicated for the players. But having it optional could be good way to do this.

Nice relaxing puzzle game

I really enjoyed this game! Thanks for providing the info in game. It'd be nice to have something that visuals previews where you can and can't place a tile once you've selected it, but that's minor thing. The game is really well polished and enjoyable. Nicely done!

It's a bit harder than excepted but it's nice to build your little city! It's just a bit hard to remember every restrictions.

Very fun and relaxing city builder game I like it!

Neat and easy-to-pick-up puzzler. I liked building the city and seeing the zoom-out at the end.

It looks like we both had the same idea to go for a city builder, although yours is a lot more puzzle heavy. I'd love to see what you think of mine though! I think you did a great job in sticking to the theme and making a fun puzzle game while you were at it. Nicely done!

A very neat little city builder. Reminds me of puzzle games. It's quite an elegant use of the theme.

Submitted(+1)

It's cool to see this different kind of city builder. It's almost like a puzzle game, I really enjoyed it! Also the sound in combination with this art style is really nice! Good job!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun and relaxing game. It was a pleasure de see the city grow in this puzzle game looking like a city builder. Well done

Submitted(+1)

Great concept! I love the way you have to think in advance (which I didn't) to be able to actually create a decent city. also kind of a puzzle game if you don't think far ahead!

Submitted(+1)

Wow, I really enjoyed your game! I think your application of the theme was very creative, and the ruleset for your tiles was quite elegant. These puzzles were fun to solve!
