Great game so far! After a few attempts at it I decided to try create a really big city. I started off by trying to make sure I had many villagers and food but I expanded fast and ended up 10,000 in debt. I then decided to close all my buildings and use the remaining resources to build buildings that would raise the happiness of my people so I could raise the tax and get enough money to get back into the positives. After that, I built slower (learning from my previous mistake) and I ended up making this:
(I couldn't capture the other two thirds of the city so it doesn't look that big)
Had a lot of fun playing this and can't wait to see how you develop this moving forward! One thing I'd like to ask about however is I don't quite get how city hall levelling works nor do I get how you get different types of residents. At one point one of my huts turned into a medieval house looking thing but then reverted back after being unhappy. It was a little unclear how the city hall levelled up (maybe I forgot something from the tutorial) or how the huts upgraded so how exactly does that work?
