Hello everyone!

First, quick introduction: I'm a Comp. Sci. and Chemistry student in my final (5th) year of university (finally!). I'm not particularly passionate about game development, but I just finished developing and deploying a web app with a friend of mine and thought "Hey, this might be a nice change of pace."

So here I am! I decided to dust off a 3-4 year old game I worked on previously and extend it. Needless to say, it has it's own unique challenges (I'll explain them later). It's a blatant rip-off of one of my favorite games: SimCity 4. I'll go into more detail later, but in the meantime here are a few screenshots (by the way, I'm not an artist so forgive the programmer art) :

First, a nice city being constructed:

I really like that picture for some reason. Next up, a little more destruction:

And finally a recent addition. One thing I never liked about SimCity 4 is the lack of attention to disasters (for one thing, they don't happen automatically). My favorite disaster is the tornado. Here's my attempt:

See you next time!
