Accessing Old Versions and the New Versioning Scheme
With version 1.25 coming out on November 8th, 2019, if you wish to continue to play your version 1.24 SP9 save games, you'll need to switch to "1.24" in the Steam Beta's tab. Directions on how to do this are here: GearCity Wiki. Be sure to switch back to "Default" Build for the latest version after you complete your save game.
We recommend switching to Default build to play the latest version of the game. But if you wish to continue these old saves, you'll need to switch builds in the Beta's tab again. As both Legacy and Stable build will be deleted on November 8th. Legacy Build users need to switch to "1.22" to continue your save games. Stable build users, need to switch to "1.23" to continue your save games.
I have switched "Legacy" and "Stable" Steam Beta builds to just their version names. This is primarily to avoid confusion from people who think "Stable" is more stable than the latest build. Any future save breaking major builds, such as 1.24, will get their own build inside of Steam Beta. With version 1.25 release, both Default and Testing build will be on equal footing again. With no planned save game changes in the future, these two builds will merge back together. If any save game changes occur in the future, such as a crowd-funded expansion, the Testing Build will be relaunched to harbor those changes until v1.26 is released.
Sometime around 1.21, I started releasing Supplemental Patches to major builds to fix bugs before I break save games. This versioning scheme confused some people when the supplemental patch number was higher than the minor build number. For example, several people assumed v1.24 SP9 was a newer build than v1.24.3... Since v1.25 should be the last major build, there are going to be a lot of supplemental patches. To avoid any confusion, I am switching the version scheme to Status.Major.Minor.Patch. This means that a number change after the third dot does not require save game changes. So the next update after v1.25 will be v1.25.0.1, and so forth.

Have you ever dreamed of running your own car company? Do you often find yourself drawing vehicle designs on the margins of your papers? Ever wondered what it would be like to be the next Henry Ford or Enzo Ferrari? Now you can with GearCity.
GearCity is an Automobile Manufacturing Business Simulator. Design chassis, engines, transmissions, and vehicles. Manage production lines, supplies, prices, and employees. Build factories and distribution branches. Set marketing and racing budgets, and most importantly stay profitable. All while hundreds of AI marques attempt to do the same thing.
GearCity offers a wide variety of design choices and near endless amounts of freedom when running your company. Do you want to make a pickup truck marque in Africa? A Russian supercar company? A German luxury brand? Maybe you want to be a generic marque in America? Or a budget car company in China? Let your imagination free and choose your own path.
Armed with a realistic economic simulator with historical purchasing power parity per capita, population, and economic data for over 250 cities, GearCity aims to be a hardcore realistic business simulator. This is not a typical casual tycoon game. Instead GearCity is a modern descendant of the classic 90s management games Detroit and MotorCity. Despite the fidelity of the simulation, once you get the hang of the game it is fairly simple and easy to play. You can choose a more abstract style, or dive deep and micromanage every detail.
GearCity currently offers:
120 Years (1440 Months/Turns) of gameplay.
274 Cities with historical economic and population data.
300 Marques inspired by real companies.
29 Vehicle types
