IsoMetro™

Inspired by '90s simulation games, IsoMetro™ captures the essence of old-school city-builders in a tile-based world, sporting a minimalist aesthetic powered by an intricate simulation engine, plus a rich multiplayer experience! Try before you buy -- play the Free Edition as long as you want before making a decision on whether to purchase the Gold Edition. Useful info for new mayors can be found in the game guide. There is also an interactive tutorial. Tech IsoMetro™ avoids actually doing any 3D rendering on player systems, by instead shipping with already-rendered perspectives of all in-world assets. This enforces both a nostalgic look-and-feel, and a smoother experience on nostalgic hardware. Despite the minimalist visuals, the underlying simulation engine is very granular -- all economic influences affect each tile differently, so if you want to grow your economy, then you'll have to think carefully about how to move people and goods from one place to another. Making your own buildings for IsoMetro™ is fairly straightforward with the asset exporter tool which supports placing externally created 3D models for advanced artists. The UI is also controlled by human-editable files in case you want to adjust its appearance or layout. Editions IsoMetro™ Free Edition contains enough buildings to let you experience each aspect of the economic simulation. Although it serves mainly as a demo, it's still a full game on its own and continues to receive code updates right alongside the Gold Edition. It can even join multiplayer servers, just not with the help of the Grimesoft infrastructure (i.e. port forwarding etc. is required for direct connections). IsoMetro™ Gold Edition ships with a much greater variety of higher-quality buildings so that you can utilize both the simulation engine and your urban planning skills to their fullest extent. Build bigger and more intricate cities with more intricate transit facilities at your disposal, more options to choose from in regards to utilities and civic services, and citizens who can construct much more impressive buildings if you provide just the right environment for strong economic growth. The Gold Edition also unlocks the full capabilities of the Grimesoft multiplayer infrastructure -- server browsers, the ability to host servers inside a network without port forwarding, and Steam+itch.io profile information from other authenticated users.
