[ph101]

Hiya,

After 4 years' work by myself (code) and my girlfriend Sarah (artwork), i'm hyped to say Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up is launching today into Early Access on Steam.

Description:
Design and build the most efficient metro stations known to man! Excavate. Expand. Set staff priorities. And manage the commuter flow. Overcrowd is a management/tycoon/simulator set below the bustling city of Lubdon Town.

Congrats on shipping!!!

Great to see a GM project go from WIP to release. Hope early access goes well for you guys

Might buy if it was on sale. Interesting concept though, might be useful if politicians see that random gamers are actually better city managers than the current tyrannical senile old farts in charge.

Hiya,

After 4 years' work by myself (code) and my girlfriend Sarah (artwork), i'm hyped to say Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up is launching today into Early Access on Steam.

Description:
Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up is a tactical management sim set on the metro of bustling city Lubdon Town. It blends base-building, pausable real-time strategy, and spatial puzzling.

I remember seing this a while ago when it was earlier in development, maybe on Twitter?
Did you have a devlog anywhere?

Looks great, congrats on the release!

Hey all - just a quick note/beg for votes. Overcrowd is in the top 100 of the indie DB "Indie of the Year" ! If you can spare a moment to give me a vote, it would be awesome if we made it into the top 10 (I think we might be the only Gamemaker game in the top 100? But apologies if there are others there I didn't sport!) You van vote here: https://www.indiedb.com/groups/2019-indie-of-the-year-awards/top100#vote43523

Hey man, great job with the isometric engine! I have a problem with the depth sorting and wonder how did you deal with sprites that occupy multiple tiles?
