Hello mayors ! Were happy to release this new version of Silicon City, 0.27 . We worked on many improvements to make the game easier to play. We did also a lot of work to prepare the next version we will release next month : the Abondance update. This version will bring a lot of very exciting new features, such as the Story mode for beginners and advanced players to understand better the game mechanics. Other features and more missions will be added too.

TWEET, TWEET AND TWEET

We improved the readability of the Population interface. The window is smaller and contains less data. Its a new small step towards the UI of tomorrow! Before

After

Tweets are longer displayed from the main population interface but contextually when a Silizen is selected. Before

After

LOOK UP IN THE SKY !

Planes are now randomly flying across the sky above your city. Look how cute they look!

WE NEED MORE MONEY

You can now manage the budget of the different public departments of your city. Increasing them will make the related jobs more attractive and will ensure your city will be more protected. In the other hand, lowering them will save your money to build new infrastructure. It's up to you !

THIS IS THE END OF THE WORLD !

Are you ready to manage danger and crisis in your city ? With this new update, big fires can start and potentially a very huge rock coming from space could crash into your city. As soon as something big happens in your city, the local news will cover the event.

We implemented the natural disaster engine in the game. The meteor is the first one of a surprising list of disasters that could happen to your city. Who said mayor lifes easy?

UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVITY

We redesigned the map generator with a more realistic and more efficient random generator. We also increased the map size possibilities from 32x32 (extra small) to 256x256 (big). You can now generate up to 17,592,186,044,416 different map so it will be a huge challenge to play them all

MISC IMPROVEMENTS

Firemen jobs are more easily filled in
The game difficulty has been adjusted regarding the budget
Pressing F will select the bulldozer and pressing F again will select back the previous tool
Silizens can now walk on tree alleys

BUGS FIX

The game do not pause anymore when a fire starts
The water disappears as well as the ground when the distance is too far
Silizens who where looking for a job were not visible when the Work map layer was enabled
Game is not resumed anymore when the objective window is closed (if the game was paused before)

Retro city building!

Silicon City uses old game design and revisit the genre of city simulation. If you've already played to the earliest versions of Sim City©, you will find here tribute to the original game from the 90's. Your city is here based on a classic squared grid, ready for good old urban planning techniques.

Welcome Mayor!
You've been elected as the new mayor of a city. Start with a procedurally-generated land and build your city from empty plains and forests to a concrete jungle with hundreds of thousands of citizens.
Build residential areas to allow new citizens to move in. Provide them electricity and a place to work. Watch out their own needs and financial situation to adapt your urban layout.

A citizen's life

Your decisions will impact every of your citizen's life. Lay a smart road grid to help them commute to work faster. Build schools to boost their skills and motivation for better jobs and to raise new limits.
Your citizens will wake up early with the sun and spend their day between work, entertainment and social activities. Fulfill their wishes and get enough followers before the next mayor elections.

Traffic jams
The worst enemy of every city building players is back. Due to the squared grid, the navigation used by your citizen is more understandable and its optimization is deeply customizable. Most of the jobs have different shifts times, but beware of critical rush hour times or your citizens might lose their job if they get stuck on the road every day.
Each workplace's productivity is affected by the skills of your citizens and their ability to reach work on time. Place your commercial and industrial zones carefully.
