Welcome to channel if you're new here, I'm Orbital Potato and play a bunch of strategy, simulation and sci-fi games here on TH-cam. I usually cover these games in the Lets Play format, but also make videos analysing specific game mechanics and looking at new releases. If you feel so inclined, consider subscribing, I would love to have you along for the ride!
I like the idea of a relatively simple city builder where you're balancing inputs and outputs-I've been looking for one since Block'hood was abandoned-so I was excited when I heard your pitch for this one, but it doesn't really seem to scratch that itch. Sure, you're technically managing resource levels, but your buildings mostly seem to give you onetime bumps, rather than production, which feels weird and the the resources you require aren't really tied to what you're building, since they're mostly determined by the weekly choices, which only seem to drive them up. Those choices also feel like a bit of a let down, since they only drive costs up and unlock new choices. They don't seem to really change how you play or ever improve things.
Overall, it feels like an interesting concept, but I'm not overly enthused by its implementation. I wish the choices had more diverse consequences than picking which rake you're about to step on and I wish your building choices had more of an impact (and required more thought than) just picking which of the four resources you want to boost. You said it was still fairly early in its development, so I'm hoping they add a bit more depth as they go along.
the gameplay we've seen here looks like Dorfromantik in a futuristic coat. Nothing "Management" about it.
@@Paul-vi3on That seems like an apt comparison.
This games has potential, would love to see it realised. Maybe a story with multiple endings depending on which faction u support more or the choices u took ( like the robot is a person event decision leads to detroid become human scenario for the city) or maybe both, where which factions u support & the choices u make during decisions weave together to craft a story & an ending (so u can have high points for one faction, get that faction ending but itll be bad regardless because u took decisions that make the faction take u offline or reprom u or something), u can even have some choices be meaningless in the greater scheme, like agreeing to the request for more parks & fulfilling it simply gains u good pr with the citizens & well more parks & is this an act of virtue, while ignoring also yields no story changing result
Are you like "the guy"? Everyone shows these games to you before anyone else lol
I try to showcase all city builders, automation games and idle games when I get them!
That's right. I don't even get how he's able to know these games exist so quickly. Amazing
That's not Cyberpunk. This is Fritz-Lang-Punk (Metropolis).
Cyberdieselpunk!
I am definitely looking forward to this game! It looks right up my alley. It also reminds me of Fantasy Town Regional Manager.
Somehow .. to me, the art style feels something between "try to look fancy" and "depressing". I like the art deco style =)
20:18 : Builds his one factory by two other active factories... having not noticed the two de-active factories he could've built it next to instead and gotten three times the amount of public points x.x
It happens.
Cyberpunk art deco count me in
The devs have good ideas but this game is still rough and unpolished. I've played through the demo, some bonuses aren't working, the buffs/debuffs from decisions are not properly explained....
It has Metropolis vibes. Very Art Deco feeling.
It's as Russian as it can get, this game - a roguelike Russian puzzle game with Tetris mixed in with city building and kewl graphics.
This looks pretty neat. I might want to check this out when I can! Not sure I understand what's cyberpunk about it. I understand the 'cyber' part, but what part is 'punk'?
Can't wait to place a city like this at the bottom of the ocean. Real utopia, where every person will be entitled to the sweat of their brow. Nothing will go wrong.
Needs more/some diagonals and curves
The only cyberpunks in Potatograd are those that don't want to work 22 hours/day for, "reasons."
Long live Comrade Dictator Potato's republic.
looks like a nice idea of gameplay
That's the name of a book I was writing😢
Is here any winning, or do you play until you lose?
Would you do a part two?
I'd probably l
keep loosing cause I'd keep ignoring the elites xD
i think i would like this game if there were less - MUCH less - or none of the "events" and if they tell you the effect of the the choices BEFORE you make them instead of having it be random.
The style looks like kinda steampunk game, not cyberpunk
ngl it's kind of painful watching someone pick the clearly unethical choice and wonder why the public is getting mad, even to say the game should have told them that they'd hate it. The factions aren't random at all- this game has really consistent themes of class conflict and power struggles, and implements them in such a meaningful way! Just think about these options- wouldn't you be mad if the god-AI covered up a leak for big business? Wouldn't you be upset if you were kicked out of your (low income) house with no money so it could build a park? It's all about considering things from different perspectives:)
`Against the storm` genre
First comment?!?! Did I finally do it??
Yup you definitely did 👍👍
yes
congrats on wasting everyone's time.
The game looked cool until you said that you play as an AI. These developers must hate money...
Why is playing as an AI supposed to be a bad thing?
That's just the "story", the explanation to why you are designing a whole city like that. In other city builders you're either god or an autocratic mayor, not better or worse than an AI.
