Starting in the gold but it will make its way through the different tiers as usual.
Currently, only the Windows build is supported. Android is not functioning yet, and Mac/iOS builds would require a Mac for development, so I’m still evaluating whether that’s worth pursuing.
This is primarily a tech demo, focusing on the character creator and core mechanics rather than full gameplay. However, now that the foundation is in place, the focus will shift toward reintroducing and expanding the story. Everything you see here will continue to improve through smaller updates alongside major story releases. Your feedback will also help shape future content, including new assets like clothing or hair styles.
Features & Limitations:
The UI is still basic but should be mostly self-explanatory.
You can create and save your character, allowing you to carry them into the future story mode.
You can spawn and remove characters via the UI and interact with them by clicking on them.
Known issues: Sound scaling isn’t quite right yet, so large crowds may be too loud.
Map & Future Improvements:
The map is a direct import from the old version and will undergo reworks for better lighting and file size optimization due to the transition to 3D. It’s not at its best visually yet, but improvements are planned.
In story mode, you'll be able to choose where story events happen and control the camera, meaning some adjustments to the map and building design are necessary.
Please report any issues you encounter. I’ll work on fixes as quickly as possible to refine and improve the experience. Looking forward to your feedback on this journey!
