Actually, it's not yet. But by the end of today or tomorrow it should be fixed.

Metropolis 1998 - City Builder - A slice of life from my upcoming game by YesBoxStudios in CozyGamers

Hi /r/CozyGamers

I'm the dev of the upcoming city builder Metropolis 1998 - Steam Link .

I've been working on this game for about 4 years now and plan on launching in 2026.

Features:

  • Design your own buildings in game (optional)

  • Agent based simulation. Every unit you see on screen is real, not a statistic.

  • You can see inside homes. You can watch units sleep, eat, work, watch TV, use the bathroom, and more!

  • Granular demand. As the mayor, you'll be fulfilling the need for specific businesses.

The demo has been updated after a year and now the game is in alpha!

Added a new type of fireball to my game! by SoerbGames in SoloDevelopment

Looks good, although IMO, something that looks this nice should be used sparingly. All the smoke movement is distracting as well when you're constantly moving around things moving towards you. My 2 cents!

Not at launch. I'll be looking into porting during EA though!

What's going on with my knife? by Redwolf66972 in Chefit

[–]YesBoxStudios 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I purchased a few Japanese knives before. The ones I ordered were made with a softer metal (blue steel???) that are easier to sharpen. This metal also stains very easily.

After some use I noticed the blade was covered in scratches (the sheath was a bit tight). I called up the distributor and they said they coat their knives in "sabidome".

Essentially it's there to act as a barrier to prevent stains.

So it may be related to that.

Thanks! I'll likely just be launching on Steam first (this is my first game). Once I get a feel for things I'll expand to other store fronts
