Silicon City v0.34 "Hopfenkse" update log

Hey Mayor, We just released a new update, Silicon City v0.34! Discover the new features of this last version since the early access one.

Click click - Ah! powers back on!

Due to bugs encountered recently by players, we were able to find a way to improve the energy distribution in Silicon City! The small energy balls that can be seen sailing around the city in the energy view are now independent of the game speed. The consumption and production of energy of all the buildings is now consistant and avoids the slowdowns linked to a high game speed.

Houses abandoned by their inhabitants?

When a house or an apartment is no longer occupied by any silizen for a while, they become abandoned and need to be razed by the mayor in order to renew the residential area and avoid the negative effects of an abandoned building. As a mayor you must ensure that the residences remain attractive to your citizens. If they become derelict, the surrounding area is probably not attractive enough.

The award of the most beautiful garden!

The houses of our dear silizens are embellished with new trees! The higher the land value, the more the variety of gardens will vary. Look at these apartments of the most beautiful effect!

A Blocksy terrain editor

To expand the possibilities of the city editor in sandbox mode, and to give you more opportunities to create the city of your dreams, we have added a terrain editor mode, giving you the possibility to change the type of soil.

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.
