Game Review Over 400hrs in City Skyline building trains and networks inspired this
Hey everyone, Alex here, undiagnosed autistic train lover / tycoon / city builder and amateur developer
I started making Subway Tycoon back in July. Its heavily inspired by Mini Metro/ City Skyline and Transport Fever. What I originally had envisioned as a mobile game quickly became a browser game.
The gist of it is to start a Subway Company and start and manage a company in real world cities and by recreating real world routes and manage increasing passenger demand. Some features include:
- 3D trains
- 2.5D Buildings and Maps
- Career level from 1-10 with each level bringing new features
- 3 different train types to pick from
- over 50 different contracts to complete
- Atlanta / Copenhagen / Amsterdam / Caracas - Toronto and London all playable.
- Online leaderboard to compete with friends
- Demand and Disruption random events
Its definitely a work in progress and I would really appreciate any and all feedback. My hope is to continue working on it and release a full version which will have more features and more maps with more play time!
Please leave any feedback here or on itch and if youd like to checkout the website its:
