Highrise City News

Work continues. And we are making some good progress. Right now we are focusing on improving the way you can build streets (finetuning to be exact). Also we are right now focusing on finishing a Demo for the game which will be unlocked during this years gamescom.

Of course, these are things you cannot really show off very well. So what did our artists work on recently? Well, they started replacing the cars. And we have prepared some examples for you.



Yet another small thing: If you want to chat with us, drop some ideas or nerd around about city builders, you can hang out with us on Discord as well.

Last week we announced Highrise City and it already has been a wild ride. While we did expect that it would cause a few reactions, we were seriously not prepared for the amount of requests we got after the reveal. If you read this and you are a member of the press or an influencer, please give us some time to get back to you - it can take a while right now, we're a very small team after all.

Having that said, we wanted to show off some progress from this week. While a lot is happening underneath, whenever we can show new stuff, we will try to do so. This week one of the two artists has been working on the lighting system a bit, tweaking it and improving the overall atmosphere.

We have prepared a shot, showing the current state of how the light looks at day and during a sunset. The building on the screen is by the way one of the largest skyscrappers which can appear in certain districts. It is roughly 200 meters high (in game metrics).
