info
Powercity 9000 is the first game that I’m developing (first game that has a demo).
It’s (very) basic right now: you can build a city in “creative” mode, in an isometric world. It’s being developed in Monogame, and I learned a lot with it.

Features

  • Tiles/objects modding support
  • Isometric pixel art
  • Creative mode
  • A minimap
  • Bugged walking people in your city (if the setting is on)
  • Many tiles/objects to choose from

known problems in the latest version:

  • People are bugged in this version. You can disable people in the gameplay menu.
  • No in-game menu yet.
  • Water needs a new texture system. (water is transparent on the edges, but it’s actually only necessary when placed near other tiles that aren’t water.
  • Worlds get glitchy when loading a save after adding tiles/objects in the text file for modding. (Glitching doesn’t happen when adding the new object/tile at the end of the (text) modding file.)

Current version
alpha v1.2.1

Thanks! I know it’s not much yet but I’m trying to polish the game first. I don’t want it to be a game full of content, but glitchy as hell :wink:

Thank you! My goal is to make a “survival”-mode or campaign where you need to manage your resources.

Thanks, you are actually one of the first people to make a comment about the UI, so I didn’t know if it would fit in.
And thank you for the follow!

I updated the game. It’s mostly an update that optimizes the game, so not much. I also added bad/basic controller support and some other things.

It’s mostly an update that fixes some modding bugs/glitches. It also adds connecting objects.
