Hey! I really love the game, even if my computer can't handle it too well (which is something I know you're working on so thank you so much). I really enjoyed trying a few things, including making a bunch of small settlements that traded items in one game, and a few games where I just let one settlement become massive.

My question is, how different will the "feel" of 2.0 be from the original? Will I still be able to have the satisfaction of doing city building and being able to have somewhat organically growing cities?

I would also like to mention that in 1.4.2, having to place a house for every single person got really tedious, and also trying to set up trade routes between different settlements started to get overwhelming because I would have to set the import/export for every good for every city going to every other city. Maybe you could abstract the trading system as well?

In any case: The game is really good and once I'm not on public wifi I'll send you some money because hey this is a really fun game (my most played game on itch by far)

I'm trying to keep the same feel from 1.42, you'll have to be the judge of that however. The emphasis is still on city building, if anything the growth is more organic than before. The new way population works requires it. You can only build structures if you have a free pop, and you can only get free pops from having enough food, and enough spare housing for your settlement to grow, so it's a balance of securing enough food and housing to support everything else.

The change from individual people to abstract "pops" means that you'll be placing a lot fewer houses. The trade settings are very similar to 1.4, but I'd like to revisit them in the future.

Thanks for playing!

Also, I sent $25 like I said I would. I really hope that helps! If there's anything I could do to help (other than bothering you with suggestions or sending money), please let me know! I have plenty of time on my hands these days, so I wouldn't mind helping out if at all possible.

Wow, that's really generous of you. I appreciate the offer of help, but right now I just need time (so if you have a time machine, hit me up).
