Hello urbekites

I am preparing a free update related with water



With new constructions and rain and snow effects:

• Rain and snow effects
  
• More bridges
  
• Coastal parks
  

I've been testing with the effects, but for now I can show you the progress on the promenades, I hope you like it and that you feel you can personalize and make your cities more beautiful.

If you have pictures of promenades or bridges that you like, please leave the link to add them, thanks

Also, if you find a cool name for the update, it would be cool!

Stay tuned!

Hello Urbekitas,

We are working on a new game Rebel Roar, this time it's a roguelike card game where you control anthropomorphic animals in a cyberpunk world, fighting against humans: Rebel Roar. What's new, is that you can mix decks by making your character, so if you have a ninja cat, you have the feline deck and the ninja deck. You can make anything from a hacker possum to a gunner rhino.

Anecdotally, we almost called it "against the sapiens" or "No more pets!!"



Also, we changed the name of the studio from Estudios Kremlinois to Fridus Studio.

It was called Kremlinois Studios because with a friend we started making games in a neighbourhood in Paris called Kremlin-Bicêtre (quite Urbeky!), the people there were called Kremlinois. And "studios" with an E because in Spanish we can't pronounce "studios". But after the war, many people thought that Kremlinois was an apology for the war! Nothing could be further from the truth! So we decided to name it Fridus Studio.

We have now a cool logo too




Fridus is short for Frida, the name of my cat who appears in many Urbek easter eggs (how many Fridus did you find?). She accompanied me a lot in the development of Urbek, but now she is no longer with us.
