This game is so addictive. As a townplanner myself it's both great that the city grows organically and presents a challenge but also frustrating that I can't add some sanity to the layout.
yeah, the fact that theres no zoning rules is a pain in the ass. The only thing you really can do is try and lay out roads ahead of time, lets say if you wanted a gridded city for example. There are two problems with that, though: firstly, you usually don't get enough tiles, especially if you ever take motorways. Second, the game doesn't alert you when the playing area expands, so a house could come along and plant itself right where you needed a road to go, and from that point on there is nothing you can do about it. So you have to really watch the expansion closely.
You can, to a small degree, block malls from spawning in certain areas by filling a space or part of the space with roads. You can easily build 2 square roads in a space. Malls never remove roads
I was going to say: City Planner Plays and Real Civil Engineer need to do something together. It's really interesting too, seeing the difference in road designs between a brit and an american.
I feel like it ruins the game doing it like that. But I don't think the game is going off anything more than a puzzle in the first place. I just like it to look natural. Including adding those useless game ending stop lights.
@@itsyourenotyour9101 I am confused. You feel it ruins the game by applying logic to a puzzle game to survive longer and acheive a higher score? Is that not the point of playing a puzzle game
@@calvingreen1215 Not how they play it. I agree, I dislike watching and playing that way, the fun for me is making roads that flow traffic in cycles keeping things moving without segregation or an overreliance on motorways.
@@calvingreen1215 I said it ruins it making it look segregated. It's stupid, yet I acknowledged it is a puzzle game and you are basically forced to do it. If the cars were smarter you wouldn't have to manipulate it. Instead they always take the shorter path, instead of taking into consideration the actual best route.
Same as you, I intended this game to build a city with lots of connectivity, so each house has access to a variety of amenities (color). Apparently, that's not the case, our residents here only go to work and return home, or they are so patriotic that they visit only one type of mall.
The biggest problem I'm seeing is the development. You've got businesses and homes popping up in random places, one at a time. Without the ability to plat out full neighborhoods and districts, you're stuck with these weird roadways that are either underutilized or overcrowded.
You can place roads to stop things from spawning where you don't want them to. For example, if you don't want a large building somewhere make sure there is only room for a house to pop up in that area. It's difficult with the limited roads, but can be done to an extent, especially early on in the game.
I feel like that's what really makes the game a lot of fun, because it gets exponentially more difficult as time goes on. That's why so many people end up losing at around 1200-1400 trips on the first few maps, because by that point if you have a remotely bad road design you've already lost. (I feel like a really big thing to watch out for is having to change roads around when there's already a traffic jam, because even if the change you made would be good in the long term it could completely screw you over before traffic gets the chance to clear up again)
This reminds me of trying to play with a much younger sibling; just as you start to be able to craft a narrative out of whatever random toys they've put down, they pull out the next box and start putting more toys everywhere. I love it! As a side note, I don't know what you could really do to fix it, but I find it a little difficult to track when you're talking about a specific area, because the cursor blends in so well to the largely light-colored game.
@@Rosiepedia I wouldn't keep my hopes up, the game's been released for almost 2 years and it still operates this way. I don't see it changing much from what it currently is, other than bug fixes.
@@lucasgonzales4260 the game has only just general released on steam so there will be a lot more players noticing bugs in this version. They’ve already tried to improve traffic lights although only by offering two instead of one. If they want people to use their optional features they need to make them actually useful. So far only bridges, motorways and tunnels actually aid gameplay.
@@pedromartinez2347 dark theme would make everything better. Even ony phone I had to turn off auto brightness cause this barf of whiteness theme has bad contrast
So, this was fun! I don‘t think I have ever heard you this stressed, you usually have such a calming effect on me… A technical info: the mouse arrow is really hard to see, so it was difficult to follow which „this“ you were talking about. Not much you can do about that, though.
This gameplay is so aesthetically pleasing. Everything's connected and I love the colors interact. It feels much more alive! I get that the most efficient way is diagonals and by segregating roads by colors and/or making subdivided neighborhoods to avoid long and diverted travels; but that's just if you're grinding for scores. This layout is more fun and I enjoy it better than stressing out strategies to shorten travels and efficiently supplying the demand. It's calm, peaceful, and stress-free. It really gives you the "feels" of playing a game rather than participating in a competition. ❤️
Other small hints though. Use diagonal roads when possible. It saves road tiles as it lets you move on both the X and Y axis with just one tile. Buildings summon the closest available car by route and will take that route regardless of traffic.
4:04 you're redirecting that house to the right, but you should know that houses can have their driveways diagonal, so you could connect it down and to the left, forming a single light blue neighborhood connecting to a single point on the main road
I can't believe it, you are cheating on Verde Beach with this where nothing can burn?? Nono Sir, that is not good. Ahh nice to see you trying this out as well, it is a fun game for sure
I think the first domino to start toppling everything else was Dark Blue being unable to access their super building very easily. instead of connecting the two houses in the middle with the motorway, you probably would've had way less traffic if you connected to somewhere near the six dark blue houses to the north and left them off your artery and the connected roundabout entirely.
Small tips Houses do not need to be connected. When a house appears on a bad spot, I will not connect them. You can also use road tiles to block hous spawning in a certain areas. Try to avoid intersections. Red houses only need to go to the red buildings. When a blue houses spawn, I try to get them around and make small areas of Houses-Building. Use diagonals. It saves a lot of road tiles.
You may not play the most optimally, without diagonal roads and whatnot, but I have to say, your builds are by far the most satisfying out of anyone I’ve watched play this. :) I could totally imagine something close to that road network in a real city
LOVE the video, but it would've been helpful if you could highlight your cursor somehow. It gets lost on the roads and a few times I didn't know where on the map you were working.
Glad you are branching out! Been a fan of the channel since Bluffside, and I really love your Cities skylines series, but I was worried that you might not branch into many other games or that they wouldn't be as fun or entertaining. I'm glad to be proven wrong as you've kept uploading quality videos consistently. Cheers!
I just became a subscriber! you are so nice to listen to, talking technical about traffic, both in this game and CS. I already learned so much from you!! TYSM
I managed to WRECK my friends' scores on my first tries just by prioritizing road hierarchy almost to the exclusion of everything else. It is really hard to avoid culdesacs everywhere though, that just gets worse and worse.
I find the one thing this game needs, is that wherever there is a T-section or a crossroad, having the ability to choose whether certain directions have priority, basically choosing a 4-way stop or a T section stop rather than all having to be either lights/roundabouts or nothing.
I heard more of Phil's soul and life-force leave his body here than all of the times the Verde Beach Arsonist burned down his school and forest preserve+zoo
Love the video!!! I'm going to make one suggestion though... It's hard to see your mouse point at what you are talking about, you should do something to highlight where your mouse is, maybe circle where you're talking about or sort of zoom in on the mouse a little bit to get us looking in the right direction, other than that your editing is perfect!!
Turns out the civil engineer beat the city planner at the game, but we all know it's best when you work together. I'd love to see a collab between you and RealCivilEngineer
It's easier to use diagonal merges rather than having perpendicular roads, and to unfortunately encouraging segregation, gets you a better score. But you've got a calming, charming voice to listen to while watching you play!
one thing I learned. Cars will always slow down at a 4 way junctoin even if no other cars are there - but if it's only a 3 way, they will not slow down. So if you take a 4th road at a 4 way intersection and just move it over one tile, you'll have 2 3-ways, and no slow down.
Hello there CPP! This was a really great surprise and I'm so happy about it. The artwork of this game looks so peaceful and makes me remember about the TV show "Bob the Builder". I appreciate that you tried this game. ☺️☺️☺️
I'm completely addicted to this game and I haven't even played it yet. The marketing for this game for sure is working. I asked for it for my birthday ;3
I spent this entire episode starting aimlessly at the screen because the mouse pointer was entirely too small to see and blended in with the road, but I was still entertained
Idk why, but I've been recently introduced to people who play games that relate to their work, first a cibil engineer and now a city planner! I'm not complaining lol
One of the things that always gets me is once buildings are upgraded to circles cars can't seem to get in and out of the three parking spots fast enought to satisfy the trip requirements. It seems like it would make more sense that if a building gets upgraded then it would get more parking or at least another entrance/exit.
I bought this game yesterday and I am obsessed. Switching to dark mode makes it easier on the eye. I love the challenge not being able to plan fully brings, though when I have enough roads I will draw in where i want main roads so nothing grows there
Its super interesting youvstart out playing in a city planner way, quite different from any other player i have seen, but as the difficulty increases you naturaly start to optimize and arrive at the same conclusions as the other players, even though it goes against your city planner experiences.
Really great video! This is my first time here and will be coming back for more for sure :) It might just be a me problem but I struggle with finding the mouse when you are talking about an area because the mouse is light and the background is light. Playing on nightmode (I think) will help people like me with keeping up :) Great vid again
This reminds me of Minami Lane, hyper simple and something you can play casually when you don’t have brain space or time for something as busy and big as city skylines. Its like a road planning version of Tetris.
Watching you play this is therapeutic, hoping to see more. And don't be scared of branching out from Cities Skylines, you're entertaining enough to make up for it😊 why not even Twitch 😌
The mean thing about this game: It looks like a traffic management game, but it's really a puzzle-game with a traffic management "theme", so to say. I found it's actually far more effective to build direct connections between a cluster of homes and a single destination, only using roads for multiple routes when I there is no other way and aggressively using highways to avoid junctions. My highscores almost tripled when I stopped trying to manage traffic and moved to basically segregating colors to their respective own road network.
I keep loosing where you're pointing to, your mouse is so small it blends right in! Other than that I really enjoyed watching you try to make sense of mini motorways xD
I've taken your feedback and given it another go! th-cam.com/video/0OcuFWoHgjw/w-d-xo.html

@@mr.smalllegs5725 How many spots away can it spawn from? I had one that was super small that i didn't think would even fit.

What if learned from this game is ignore everything you know and try to keep everything seperate
Segregation, amirite?
@@alohatigers1199 decades of fighting against segregation just to end up segregating again
Just a tip: you don’t need to connect every house immediately or in general, you just need to connect enough to meet the demand
Also motorways do not use road tiles so if you are short on road tiles you can use them
Good tip! So tempting to connect them all!
Gotta connect them all

I like the commitment to just not move Motorway 1 to the Dark Blue neighborhood lmao. You can hear the panic the whole time.
This reminds me of Minami Lane, hyper simple and something you can play casually when you don’t have brain space or time for something as busy and big as city skylines.
Its like a road planning version of Tetris.
Watching you play this is therapeutic, hoping to see more. And don't be scared of branching out from Cities Skylines, you're entertaining enough to make up for it😊 why not even Twitch 😌
I suggest that you collab with not just bikes cause both of you guys seem really educated on Roads.
The mean thing about this game: It looks like a traffic management game, but it's really a puzzle-game with a traffic management "theme", so to say. I found it's actually far more effective to build direct connections between a cluster of homes and a single destination, only using roads for multiple routes when I there is no other way and aggressively using highways to avoid junctions. My highscores almost tripled when I stopped trying to manage traffic and moved to basically segregating colors to their respective own road network.
I keep loosing where you're pointing to, your mouse is so small it blends right in! Other than that I really enjoyed watching you try to make sense of mini motorways xD
I'm amazed at how accurate a portrayal of LA you ended up with!
