Curious if folks here would be into a city sim that's not about sprawling outwards and making giant megalopolises, but taking an existing city and fixing its problems - unsnarling traffic, helping businesses grow, so people have jobs and then are more satisfied living there? And yes, there will no doubt be some natural disasters in the way. Does this fixing/protecting feel similar enough or is the building and growing really key for you to the enjoyment of the game?

Here's more info on the game I'm working on, Neighborhoods: Neighborhoods on Steam

I'm working on a cozy city sim called Neighborhoods - so instead of starting with nothing and sprawling outward like other games in the genre, this is more a city fixer than a city builder.

So you're still spinning a lot of plates, but instead of production pipelines, you're trying to make sure people are (and there stay in the neighborhood) because the business economy is providing what they need (like groceries, and jobs, etc).

But most tycoon games obsess about growing bigger, better, faster - what about just making something as good as it can be, where all your residents and happy and your community is even more connected?

Here's the steam page for more info: Neighborhoods on Steam

Just officially announced my game, Neighborhoods, which is a city sim that goes in a different direction from traditional games in the genre - instead of shaping a skyline you're crafting a community. I feel like I see regularly see posts looking for recommendations in this vein, like either fixing up a city, or more modern urbanism (mixed use omg), so I'm very curious what people think.

Any upvotes/shares/wishlists greatly appreciated!
