Thanks for featuring my game, World Turtles!

[coreffectinteractive]

Thank you so much for mentioning my game Roman Triumph... As a solo student dev it means so much :)). Fyi you can expect a demo very soon in the next Steam Festival!

Thanks for the great video! I'd also recommend Cardboard Town as an upcoming city builder :)

Really glad to see Cartel Tycoon seeing some love - such a fun game with a novel setting / story / gameplay around the management of your bosses!

[hoabinh]

Nice. Very nice to have a collected list of all the upcoming games.

3:25 WHAT THE HECK!?
That was my genuine reaction when I saw a massive spaceship suddenly appears out of nowhere lol 😂

As a long-time fan of this genre, what a time to be alive! From your list I'm really excited about Laysara, such a gorgeous and unique take, hope it lives up to its hype. One you should keep an eye out for is Nivalis, which takes place in the incredible Cloudpunk universe -- there's no release date or anything to see yet, but I'm hoping it'll be really immersive and atmospheric as the original game is. Super appreciate the effort you put into the list, thank you so much! <3

A lot of these city-building games are being developed and released these days. Whilst this gives players variety and keeps the genre alive, I feel that most of these projects are just cash-grabbing projects flooding the market with half-baked games that get boring very fast due to lack of content not to mention bugs and poorly developed mechanics. I look forward to Manor Lords though because I feel the developers are genuinely trying to give us something great.

Enjoyed watching all the versions of city builders out there. Hoping one day my game will be on your list

[subhumanity]

Laysara looks super intriguing! Definitely wishlisting along with CyberTown. Thank you for such a great list!

Really helpful video, being a city builder nut this has opened my eyes to the games that fell through the cracks, Sweet Transit is an amazing game and deserves to be here as much of it is about growing your city to level up and increase infrastructure. Cybertown, although not my favourite genre, seems like it is breaking the mold, I've had enough of post apocolypse now thanks!

I love city builders. I'm currently playing Settlement Survival and I'm soooo very hook on it. I'm surprised you didn't add this in the Bonus section at least, it has been released in October 2022.

[henrychang]

Thank you for your time and effort in putting together so many great upcoming city builders as well as the bonus games which have been released this year. But you may have missed some games such as "Post-Apo Builder", "Colonize", etc. Please go and take a look at them. :)

[kloon]

Thank you for the time and effort you put into this list. Ballads of Hongye is another intriguing city-building game that will be released soon.

[eggins]

Youve litteraly made my life of cityless pain into a city of heaven

[aaronmurphy]

Hey Orbital Potato! Great list and your presentation and narration is fantastic. Newly found you and loving it so far. A video recommendation that I would love to see you do is a list of automation type games (ie. Factorio-esque).

Another suggestion that would work for me personally is also making some more content that isn't ~1 hour in length. Just some shorter videos that are easier to digest while focusing on other tasks. Love your stuff anyway so keep up the good work :D

[bluephoenix]

City of Robots looks amazing. Look forward to see a playthings of this game.

[that_colin.michell]

That is a ton of work. Thank you potato!

[naythanstonge]

So many games here that are practically Ages of Empire. That game is so old, no idea how any of these game developers will be successful compared to so many really good ones available.
