Your aim is to build and control the system of railroads and help the trains reach their destination points without any problems. It is tycoon game for people who like trains.

sorry

it is an okay idea but could be improved like are the drivers of the trains suicidal? i mean there is a train about to crash into them and they keep going straight forward like nothings happening

PS why did you remove this from hacked arcade games?

Nice Idea BUT!!!

So you ripped of Railroad Tycoon, actaully jus being melodramatic. I am wondering if you have played your own game? If you had you should have seen that it was horribly flawed and not even playable. The instructions are worthless. The idea while interesting, I like these types of games, is lacking forethought into the actaul gameplay. Here is my suggestion, before you submit a game, play it, and have people who do not know how to play the game, play it. Then take their comments and revise your game.

I have made closed beta-testing and actually we have fixed a lot of issues. So lets say now we have open beta testing for coming RV2. Will work more over difficulty balance. Thanks for your comment!

excellent concept... BUT

MAJOR gameplay flaws... Only on easy, the trains come way too fast for, let's say I did an error, a little trajectory tweak... So as soon as you mess up just a tiny bit once, you're essentially effed.

Also, you should know what type of train is leaving the station BEFORE the train is actually out on the tracks... At the second era (1910 or something) you couldn't see the type of train before the train actually hit the built tracks...

Also, if you don't want to tweak things so that they are a little slower, then make it so that : if there is a civilian train going out, then there shouldn't be another train going out of the city if, let's say, the civilian train has been the last train to exit its station...

In my opinion, your "easy" difficulty is actually pretty hard.

Excellent concept, but some gameplay flaws that really make this game a lot too hard to be enjoyable. I hope you make it a tiny bit "easier" so that this becomes less of a frustration and more of a train collector's wet-dream...

Thanks! Very useful comment!

Ugh...

I was just about to rate you a 3, you need to explain the switches better and how you create a switch, I couldnt work out why the trains would just crash into each other no matter what i did. Not a bad game overall, could use some work. Better keyboard shortcuts for example

Thanks for comment, will work more over instructions in RV2!

Good Vs. Bad

The Good: Graphics, BGM, SFX, Gameplay, etc.

The Bad: 1) Have a way to stop the game for a while in order to build without having trains going. 2) Have the trains a conductor with a brain who will ****ing stop when they see a train coming towards them. 3) Money is a bit of a problem. Have a better way of gaining it.

Thanks for your comment! Will think about construction while pause.
