Hey, Mayors! We've have a really cool update this week alongside a juicy 90% discount.
If you've always wanted to visit the cloudiest and most supersonic city in the USA, now it's time to get your copy of BalanCity and try the new Seattle Scenario! Build the Space Needle and Columbia Center among other contemporary landmarks such as the Eagle statue and the 60s Monorail System.
If you lose, maybe you could start your own garage band and grunge about it!

Hey there BalanCity fans and players!
It's been a while since I the last update but here comes a very solicited scenario: Shanghai, China!
Lot's of supertall skyscrapers for you to build and try to balance in these uneven platforms!
Also you must beware of building too many Coal Power Plants, as smog will obscure your view! Time to plan on green energy (sorry Don).
In other news, a plague of pigeons seems to have arrived to BalanCity, so please ignore the pesky birds as you build.
Last but not least, the game is 90% off this Steam Summer Sale! So it's your chance to get your BalanCity today (or get it as a gift for that special someone!).

Dear players,
I have updated the resident block sprite so that it will show it's current population and quality of life level.
If a block population is below 9, or if it's not powered or without jobs, smog stains will appear.
If population is between 9 and 10, the block will show clean, as it always did.
And if the population is over 10, nice little plants will appear on the balconies meaning that block can upgrade to a Mega Block.
I also increased the trees effect, so that you won't need so many of them for blocks to rise over 10 residents.
Finally, a quick fix on "Power to the people" mission, now you will not lose if a power plant falls off the screen.
Hope you enjoy these changes!
Have fun!
Fernando

Hey! Just wanted you to know that the last update fixes a couple of bugs like: - Fixed Peppy from appearing randomly during the game after beating Nightmare Scenario. - Removed height limit after you complete scenarios so that you can build as high as you can. - Fixed planes not aligning properly with the airports. p.s. Couldn't fix Don being elected mayor :( Hope to have a Holiday update up soon! Keep sending bugs and feedback! regards Fernando

Hey! After some reviews and comments by players I made a couple of fixes and changes to the game mechanics. Some of the changes in the game are: - Block merging now is more tolerant. It is easier to make mega blocks now. - Emergency helicopters now do not need to go back to their headquarters. In a future update I will add the option to build several stations, but now you can place your helis wherever you want and they won't return back home leaving far away from a disaster zone. - When you unlock a Special Building, you are not forced anymore to place it. Now you can continue building whatever you were building and choose when you want to build the Special Building in order to raise your height limit. - Mission "Towered Blocks" is the most difficult one and was moved to the last spot in the list. Also, the inspector is now available as well as trees and terraces that will make that mission a lot easier (some players might find that their progress is messed up, as the last mission will be unlocked and the second and third not, just play mission "Power to the People" again in order to unlock the "Rich & Poor" mission). I'm glad to read more feedback from players to make BalanCity a better and more enjoyable game! yours truly, Fernando Cordoba

Hi!
I've been working all day to implement the promised Leaderboard feature. You can check out the Top 10 Free Mode players and their heights in the Settings Menu.
BalanCity is releasing in two days and that's something to be very ansious about! Please report any bugs you may encounter in order to keep them away from the final release!
Note: On Mac, Steam features such as Achievements and Leaderboards are not implemented yet. A few weeks after launch, these features will be available on Mac.
Have fun!
Fernando
Hey! If you happen to own Linux, now you can play BalanCity on it! It should work on any Linux 64bit operating system and was tested on Ubuntu. In other news, there is a new achievement named "Matreon", it will be unlocked to anyone who plays the game during Early Access before launch next week. After release, the achievement will be removed from the game so it is an ephemeral token, just to see how many people will unlock it. Working on leaderboards right now, hope to have a Top 10 Builders list by launch! Fernando
Hey there!
Did you know that the final version of BalanCity will be released on September 21? So If you encounter any bug please report it so as to fix it before launch!
Today's update features Steam Achievements!
20 achievements for you to achieve! More to be added soon!
Have fun!
Fernando
Hey! A new update is available, what's new?
Hey! It's been a while but I have been working hard to complete the game. Today's release includes new missions and game configurations. I have also implemented a progression system, so you may see a couple of features locked (don't worry, you can unlock the whole game in the Settings Menu!) Here's what has been updated:
Hey! I've just uploaded a Mac OSX version of BalanCity for all the Mac users to enjoy the game. Please report any bugs and issues you may encounter. See you! Fernando
Hi! A new version has been uploaded that fixed a bug that made you build the major's house every time you loaded a game! Also a couple of new missions were added! Don't forget to send feedback!
Hey! A new update is live! In this update you will find a new section on the intro menu: Missions. This seccion will hold all the missions that will be available in the final release. Righ now there are only three missions available but new ones will be added in the next days. Completing missions will eventually unlock new blocks to use in Free Mode. Now you have all blocks unlocked by default, but in the final game some blocks will be unlocked by finishing missions.
Hey guys! There was a really annoying bug that made monsters invincible. Now it has been (should be) fixed! Here is the list of changes in today's update: • Fixed immortal monster bug • When building Power Plants and Offices, you will see an "influence halo" around the block to preview the block's effect radius. • Added new music to some scenarios and a couple of extra sound effects. Remember that you can access a "test" mission by pressing "m" on the main menu. Don't forget to send feedback and bug reports!
Hey everybody! Just a quick update after some feedback I've received.
Hey! The game has been updated with a couple of tweaks to disaster spawn rates. I've seen many people having trouble with monsters or meteors suddenly destroying their precious work, so I reduced the number of disasters you will face in the first minutes of gameplay. There is also a new settings screen in the intro menu. From there you will be able to switch between full screen and windowed mode (does not seem to work properly the first time you click, gotta check on that), mute sound and set the disaster spawn ratio for every type of disaster. Let me know how this work for you and if you think the settings need a little bit of tweaking. In an upcoming update I will add missions and more tutorial that will cover the things that the regular tutorial does not. For example, mega blocks and skyscrapers. Don't forget to keep posting feedback! See you in the next update!
The last update broke the tutorial! Hope nobody got mad about this and quickly fixed the issue. Have a nice day!
Hey! A quick update (7/29) to a couple of major bugs and a bit of new content added.
Hey there! It's been a good first day for early access as I got reports of many bugs plaguing the game. Overall, I hope you can enjoy the game core mechanic as the game gets finished and polished during the coming weeks. Tomorrow friday 7/29 I will update the game solving a couple of annoying bugs and adding a new London scenario for you to try. Keep reporting any bugs or features that didn't suit you or that you would like to be added to the game. Mission Mode will be added next week. Stay tuned!
