Related Games / Theme Parkitect, new RCT-based game

wow I gotta say this game has some serious potential to become my new favorite rollercoaster simulation. Even though the amount of objects to decorate the park with are very limited at the moment, it was absolutely worth buying it.

This is what I got after 5hours of playing:

It takes some time to get used to the coaster-building mechanics but I think I did a decent job for my first time playing

 

Does anyone else have problems with the scenary tab? Every tab is adjustable but this one is literally stuck 

in the middle of my screen while decorating.

That sounds like a bug. Mines movable and adjustable. 

its just annoying there is only 2 scenery tabs at the moment.

On a separate note its been a whole year since i got to use this graphic.

 

Since the rather crap 1 entry i got running this here last year I've moved it on from NE and have now offered up the same prize list to a Christmas competition over at Parkitect Nexus (I did originally want to run it here but we still don't have a forum)

 

The competition has taken the form of a Christmas Bobsled build off with all the usual crappy theme park prizes and the chance to have your track in the game.

And its only a few days old and there are 2 entries already. Huzzah.

Merry Christmas

 

 

Since we don't have a Parkitect forum and I'm going to be a dick and plug my own park;

 

[Yes, I color corrected in Photoshop because I can.]

Suck it Kumba I do what I want

Holy shit. Best screens of this game I think I've seen yet. Foliage is incredible and I love that architecture.

Great stuff, all of you.

looks great

hmm.  Probably a decade of staring at RCT screens has informed this, but I feel like things are slightly out of scale in a bunch of weird ways that are messing with me.

Could be the view? Can you elaborate a bit more?

This is looking better and better with every screen. I'm still not totally sold on the aesthetic. A simple, abstracted style can be beautiful but they really need to do something about the palette. That combination of bright green grass, orange paths and weird purpley-greys is hideous.

Oh damn I really like that wooden coaster

Anyone got any tips for custom bezier curves on coasters? Is it possible?

 

Ive been attempting to build a custom drop on a layout,but after editing the ride it doesnt want to connect up,even though the track pieces are at the right height.

 

Do i need to build the custom drop and then build the coaster traditionally from there?

Can you send the file so I can take a look. Tough to understand quite what you mean.

Heres the default layout

 

Im trying to make the first drop steeper.Something like an additional 1 unit down on the drop curve.

Since the rather crap 1 entry i got running this here last year 

 

RRP that layout is beautiful.

Great looking layout there RRP. I shall have a look at it properly when i get off shift
 
Latest update on the dev blog is more various misc stuff for the game
 
 

Update 75

It’s been a bit of a slow week, with a mix of smaller stuff and some non-development related tasks getting done.
The color picker has been completed for now:

Recoloring objects received a quick transition effect:

Gordon put sounds for the Bobsled Coaster and Vertical Drop Coaster into the game.
We’re testing some new rain:

(The animation is very fluent in the game, choppiness is due to GIF)
Guests don’t have to wait until their coaster car is at the front of the station anymore before they can leave. This allowed us to give rides a “wait until full” setting, which also means that the Alpine Coaster cars won’t run empty anymore.
And you can let your guests take a bath now:

We don’t show stuff that doesn’t make it into the game here very often, but here’s a little something - we thought it would be fun if a claw from a claw crane machine grabbed the guest when you pick him up, including rope physics:

It didn’t work as well as expected. The swinging made putting the guest down exactly where you wanted pretty annoying, so it got scrapped.[/size]

Oh and outside of that update Sebioff posted this on their forums. For those who didnt like the colour scale. There will be soon a tool to allow you to change that to one you do like

 

 

You can thank In:Cities for that little gem being developed

Can't wait to get my hands on the recolouring tool and cheers roomie. Love how you can save hacked ride layouts and share them.

I have an idea which i want to try out which could make it quite easy. I'll let you know tomorrow
