Unfortunately, doesn't work on Chrome macOS, shame looks like an interesting entry.
This game have potential. Not very intuitive in controls.

This is a pretty interesting game , it is pretty cute and there seems to be a lot of details going in, I am not a huge fan of management sims in general but this one was not too bad, I would probably remove the whistle mechanic as using the arrows on the ground was already complicated enough imo, maybe they could go back to being red after a train has passed? probably not how it works IRL but i'm just saying from a game perspective. Either that or make the icons bigger so they are easier to click. Anyways, nice job
Actually irl it is as you sad. Light turns red when train pass it (at least in modern networks) but I thought it would be much easier with it, so I never add it. About the whistle- it's actually useful on middle tracks. Without it trains would start and stop on switches, with whistle you can pass a train first and then start the train.
You pulled off a lot here in a short time. Having the passengers get off and move around. Game is complicated I will admit but there is a whole fanbase who enjoys these management sims. I had fun sending people to wrong destinations and crashing trains!
I think the art style works well. I know you were asking about it prior to submission date but I think this turned out pretty well executed given the complexity of it.
I found this difficult to get into at first, but once I figured out how to play it properly, I really liked it. I'm impressed by how much you managed to get done because there's so much going on in this game and none of it seems to be broken! I would have liked the option to zoom in/out, but I know that's easier said than done and the minimap is already useful. Nice work :)
Actually no zoom is my choice, time spent on moving a camera is a gameplay feature 😉
My personal favorite and winner so far. A lot of tiny details like the people, and the cars in the background. Suggestions may be better controls, like for example camera movement with A and D keys, or being able to press the train icon when they are about to spawn and jump right to its camera view. Maybe the trains don't contrast too much from the environment so it is not excessively readable.
