Pushed out a update today. Fixes some late game issues. Some issues with the research screen and the game settings. The game settings where crazy low by default. Which made the game look horrible. I never seen it that way as I had always selected options at some point. If you never went into the options screen the game settings where set to way too low by default. I'm still supporting this game even as I work on my next game. Positive reviews really help a lot. Even if its just a "Good game" thumbs up is fine. This game took 3 years of full time work to make. Anyway if you have any questions leave them in the community hub. Any bugs you find report them in the hub. I'll be sure to get to it.
Final planned update. This game has gone on for 4 years. I'd like to thank everyone for playing the game. The best way you can support an indie dev is by leaving a positive review. Even if that review is just "good thumbs up". The more positive reviews the game gets the more people Steam will show to the game to. Minor bug fixes and a major performance upgrade. New trees too that are much better looking. Thank you everyone for everything. Dev vlog in the game. If you find any bugs in the game report them to the community hub. I'm still supporting this game. So while I might be done with planned updates an unplanned update could happen at any time.
Planning an update for Epic City Builder 4. This should greatly improve performance on the larger maps such as the capital. Should take a few days. I haven't stopped supporting this game. The problem with the larger maps is CPU not GPU. I came up with an optimization but its going to take a few days to develop. Wish me luck.
Got a review that reported a bug and spelling mistakes. I ran the whole games text though a spell checker and fixed the terrain editing bug. I should have used the spell checker on the games text a long time ago. I am still supporting this game. If you find anything wrong with it post in the community hub and I'll get on it. Update was pushed out in about 12 hours after the report.
Did a round up of minor bugs in the game that have been found to date. I am still supporting this game with updates. I posted a dev Vlog in the game. I smoke a rather nice cigar in the video. Thank you all for playing the game. If you really want to help please leave a review. That will insure Steam shows the game to more people.
Version 1.1.1 is now out. A number of bug fixes. I've also updates the glass shader on the buildings and adjusted the lighting. There has also been a big engine update. Post any bug reports in the community hub. Any suggestions are welcome. The game is in a real good state now. Go try the update.
Version 1.1.0 is now live and the hotfixes are finished. This is the last update of the year. Enjoy the soundtrack in the game folder and start getting those achievements. Get the details in the dev vlog. I'm also smoking a huge cigar again! [previewyoutube=z5Gc-wUwtHc;full][/previewyoutube]
There where a couple bugs in the release version that have now been fixed. Also the game should give you a better idea as to why you can't build something. Tool tips will give reasons now. Thank you all. If you enjoyed the game Please leave a review. That does more good than anything. Working on Version 1.1.0. Lots of quality of life improvements on the way.
Version 1.0.0 is now live. The war system is in the game now. Voice acting for the tutorial. All buildings have now been replaced. New sound track. This is the biggest update I've done. Finally the game is finished. I will be leaving early access soon.
If you have followed this game this long think of leaving a review. It would mean so much.
Thank you all for the support, the bug reports and advice. It has been a blast.
All of the old buildings have now been replaced. The war system is finished. All that is left is a new trailer and voice over work to be done.
Big update soon. War system will be in the next update. New sound track. All the buildings are finished. Bug fixes. I think I got them all now. Voice over work will be done very soon.
City streets have more items added to them. Street lights, trash bins, benches, fire hydrants, ect.
Its been almost 3 years working on this game. I'm feeling anxiety having it almost finished.
Wish me well.
What I've been working on for the past few weeks. The war system is almost finished up. I have to replace the rest of the buildings and a few minor things and the game should be ready to go gold. Tell me what you all think. Also remember there is nothing you can do to show support more then leaving a review. Thank you all for enjoying my game. I'm going to have this all finished up hopefully by the middle of next month. [previewyoutube=NPyu9DYzY-0;full][/previewyoutube]
Second last update before leaving early access. The game is in a great state now. Full release in a month or two. Get the details in the dev vlog. [previewyoutube=YnW8dptlJiA;full][/previewyoutube]
Lots new in this update. 1: Cloud save. 2: Blimp, jet plane, sail boat going around the city. 3: UI over haul (Drop down menu rather then tool bar) 4: New terrain system. 5: volumetric light and fog. 6: All 31 placeable buildings have been replaced 7: you can rotate buildings 8: Many minor improvements.

If you enjoyed the game please leave a review. The game needs 3 more English language reviews to receive a rating on the store page. This is really important for the games success. I know its a lot to ask of the players. It would mean a lot. Thank you all for playing my game. I've put 2 and a half years into the game so far. Got a few more months left to finish it off.
Next update is going to be a big one. UI is being reworked and a new tileset for the terrian is being done.
On top of that the buildings in the game are being redone by a much better artist then me.
Here are the first two in the game now.
Major update is live.
1: Tutorial improvements.
2: Nuclear war
3: Interface improvements
4: Major performance increase.
5: Almost all bugs out of the game.
First major update is live. Disasters have been added. They are only triggered by the player and the undo feature works with them. Some interface improvements have been made. Some quality of life improvements. Language support is back as is. Some of the translations are bad so I'm not posted them as supported at this time. They will be replaced later. There where very few bugs to fix as the game was in a good state at release. Get nuking your city. Remember you can always undo.
The game is now in early access. I have a very long todo list of things I plan on adding to the game over the next few months. I'd like people to comment and tell me what you want me to work on next. Let me hear it.
