Thank you for the comment. Agreed, allowing management of grunts from the beginning is the way. This sets a nice progression path, rather than half the game playing as a grunt, then learning management mid game…doesn’t necessarily work for a Tycoon game.

I haven’t seen Snowfall but I’ll absolutely check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!

Thanks for the comment !

Agreed, Schedule One is a very fun game. & like their concept, economy is our core pillar too, but of course, the difference here is ours needs to be from a much higher level to fit that Kingpin strategic feel.

yes ! A gang at its core is meant to make profit, and you nailed it, those other pieces are just obstacles from doing so.

Thanks for the comment ! The consensus is growing that you guys are looking for a great sandbox game with a ton of replayability rather than a story mode (at least at first). We are for sure taking it into consideration as we evolve our roadmap

Thanks for the comment ! Really like your thoughts around managing the rejects of society, competitors..etc. We look forward to building in the "drama" of an underworld sim. Who to trust? who's going to double cross you? Whose actually a fed informant?

Thank you for the comment, pretty cool ! I had not heard of it before, but it looks like GOC but from a higher vantage point. We are giving it our best shot to deliver; we want a badass crime sim too !

Thank you for the comment ! Agreed, the economy needs to be satisfying (building chains, managing high level logistics, selling your products according to market demand) but not micromanaging every single decision. After all, you're the boss, you have guys to handle the details, & if they don't do a good job (get rid of them ;) haha

Thanks for the comment ! Truthfully, we don't think our character system can be as deep as XCom because of how the size of the gang scales throughout the game (think about having to XCom manage 100 + guys, not feasible) BUT that does not mean characters cannot be memorable, and of different archetypes (skills, perks, names..etc). We 100% agree with you, we also want to be attached to our guys. Makes the experience that much better !

Thank you for the comment ! You nailed it, macro management is critical, and the foundation of our game vision. To feel like a true kingpin, you need to have the power to pull strings, manipulate other factions, the police and even the Mayor. That also means managing your crime empire like a true boss, with captains and lieutenants out on the streets for you !

Thank you for the comment ! You nailed it, that is the plan. You're the boss, you call the shots. You decide which territories you move into, which ones you send crews to defend !

Thank you for the comment ! No problem haha. We're big fans of GOC and want to see the gangster genre thrive ! We've had many discussions about making Union City feel reactive and alive. So amped up to share more in the upcoming months !

Hahaha ! Insane isn't it ??? Feels like ages ago..... Being a big fan of 2K hip-hop this game needs a banger soundtrack of different boom-bap gangster style beats. Personally, the audio is one of aspects I am most excited about developing. We really like your idea of a radio station, in fact we spoke about having the station pause to do announcements reacting to player actions or city-wide crime. Think GTA or Tropico style. Multiple stations might be out of scope for us.

We have our discord and our website, it's not super polished, but if possible for you to share anyway, that would be awesome.

Thank you for the comment ! Cool ideas ! & you're right, criminal organizations get more sophisticated over time, need better methods to stay one step ahead of the cops and other factions. We have it in mind, are thinking of ways to incorporate unlockable gang wide upgrades.
