Tiny Glade & Dystopika - A Tale of Two City-Builders

Ойындар

Tiny Glade & Dystopika are two city-building games that are simultaneously incredibly similar and vastly distinct, so let's jump into both at the same time, and see how different the results end up...

    There are a couple of free games released on Steam recently, I reckon you'd like. The Werecleaner: You play as a cleaner, who's a werewolf, forced to work night shifts at the office in wolf form. You have to get in, clean up & get out without being seen, otherwise you'll have more messes to clean... Indigo Park: Explore an abandoned theme park to find out what went wrong.

    Jon! Definitely give Dystopika a bit more of a look-see too, because even in the demo there are a few really cool features I think you might have missed. Like grabbing the top of towers and dragging up /down with the mouse will make them taller / shorter BUT as you do that, more / fewer buildings of varying sizes will spawn around them; it adds a lot to the atmosphere when trying to add density. You can also overlap buildings, and sometimes that results in new, even cooler buildings.

    Is the deep lore of this video that Tiny Glade is actually the idyllic childhood the CEO of Omega Corp has burned out over a dozen indentured neurotechs to recreate in the executive VR suite; or do the sheep ruminate on dark and terrible things as they amble about in the sunshine?

    Whilst I enjoy pretty much all MATN content, this is a superb video. The editing of the two games together in one video is seamless and a brilliant idea. So much better than simply showing us one and then the other. Really shows off why you two have so many fans out there, this was entertaining the whole way through. Keep up the good work Team MATN!

    Even though these types of games are not my cup of tea (I don't know why but I like games with a sense of "progression" and "consequence" like RPGs), what a masterpiece is Tiny Glade. It works so well, it's simple but everything in it is top notch. You could make maps for RPGs with the tools it gives you.
