Hello all! The public version has just released. Before jumping into the game, I like to share a few thoughts. First, sorry for the public release being much much later than as I claimed. That is mostly due to the long review process and of course, my bad timing. As for the future of this game, I plan to continue updating this game, bringing some major feature updates, the updates are now month…
Hello all! I would like to confirm the exact date of release of Pixel City: July 31st That is the last day of July, because I need some more time to polish the game into a ready state, so for now, no more demo version updates, instead the public release version is having 2x to 3x the content of a regular demo update. I am focusing on the development of a car shop, a racing club, a racing circui…
The next update of the demo version will be car&racing. A second-handed car retail store, a racing club, and a racing circuit is expected to show up in the next update. This is the preview of one of the cars that are purchasable once updated. Stay tuned!

Hello, This week I have worked on adding a dialogue to the receptionist on the ground floor of the hotel. In the future, I aim to make at least 1 series of dialogue for every NPC character.

However…

Hi all, I just want to share with you the progress I made this week. During the beginning of the week, I tried to revamp the moving display mechanism, that when player moves to the middle of the background and moves further in a direction, the background moves in the opposite direction, instead of the character. However, this mechanism is doable, but saw significant flickers of the moving backg…
