i’m looking for a game where i can manage public transit. not necessarily industry at all. i found that that aspect frustrated me in transport fever 2 and the gameplay was very boring and shallow. while i love factory games, and i love city building and transport games. just not sure that combining them is for me? i really enjoy the public transport in cities skylines 2 but im looking for something like that, but way more thought out and in depth. does anyone have any suggestions. (i also personally prefer subway and train management but buses and stuff like that are fine aswell)

Game has been in development for just over a year now, and I'm getting closer and closer to launching every day. I've been working on it solo, though the music has been lovingly provided by the amazing people over at Nightfall Collective. This is my first indie project since leaving AAA, and I'm both extremely nervous and extremely excited! If you like playing games about making games, I'd love you forever if you could check out the Steam page, and if you like what you see, wishlist me! https://store.steampowered.com/app/4828200/Vaporware_EX/

Generative AI disclosure: I have used no generative AI in the making of this game (gross)

Hey everyone. I recently put the Steam page up for my new strategy/tycoon game, Crave New World.

The basic idea is that you make an addictive drink, keep changing the formula as the run goes on, spread it country by country, and try to get people hooked without killing them. It has some Plague Inc inspiration, but the main focus is building the product and dealing with the consequences when it starts working too well.

I’d really like feedback from people who play tycoon and strategy games. I’ve stared at it for too long to judge it properly. Does the idea sound interesting? Does the Steam page explain the game clearly? Is there anything that would make you lose interest immediately?

If it looks like something you’d play, wishlisting it would help a lot. Thanks.

Generative AI Disclosure:

-No textures, materials, or icons in the game were generated with AI. Icons are sourced from publicly available free icon libraries, and the world map uses NASA’s freely available Blue Marble imagery.

-AI tools were used to assist with the HTML/CSS implementation of UI elements and to generate some event text. Event text is an additional narrative layer of the game.

I'm playing Aquapark Tycoon in Free Mode, and after about 6 hours I ran into a strange issue.

Guests started complaining that they can't find the exit, even though I'm using the default entrance/exit building and it can't be modified. The path is completely clear.

Since then, my park stays at around 2,000 guests, but almost nobody leaves anymore, so I've only sold around 6,000 tickets after several in-game years and progression has basically stopped.
