How does your game fit the theme?
The train loops around the track. The gameplay "loop" (pun intended) remains the same, but the player is able to optimise the loop by purchasing upgrades that increase the efficiency of different aspects of the station.

This game reminds me so much of the games I used to play as a kid. I would see myself trying to beat this as fast as possible. Really Really well done.

Well executed, and plenty of room for expansion. Particularly liked the artstyle!

i apricate the fireworks at the end, great concept i think this is a really good base of a game.

I love the aesthetic - reminds me of OpenTTD A simple gameplay loop, but very satisfying. I do agree with a previous comment about the button colours being reversed, though :)

Simple but really addictive, I love the aesthetic and the final, I thought it would have no end. Well done!

Thank you very much!

After the jam is over, I was thinking I might have a go at optimisation, and make it go on for longer. The early limit is there for 2 reasons: game starts breaking with lots of people, so I had to cap it. The other reason is I felt the game should be completeable in under 15 minutes for the jam, but if I end up still working on it my plan is to expand it into a proper incremental :)

Fun and addictive! At first glance reminded me of Chris Sawyer's games.

Thank you! That was the idea - it was graphically very much inspired by Rollercoaster Tycoon :)

this retro viiiiibe! really love the look and feel of this - my only negative is that the "you can buy" and "you can't buy" colors are, in my opinion, reversed - the gray color feels like a "disabled" color to me! great work though!!

Yeah I kind of rushed the UI out - I got similar feedback from a friend of mine who was playtesting prior to submission but didn't have enough time to fiddle with it enough. If I end up working on it more, I'll try to fix that!

The aesthetics are awesome! Well done.

Audio and graphics gave such a nice retro vibe. Would be cool to see where the game goes from here to expand the gameplay!

I do not have windows, but i would play if I could. From what I saw on the stream it sounded like a fun clicker game

Absolutely beautiful game. I wish others tried to emulate the Roller Coaster Tycoon style but its not too common nowadays. Gameplay is a tad limited though, there is very little actual gameplay besides waiting and clicking on an upgrade. Overall the presentation more than made up for it though, and I really enjoyed it!

Loved the game! trying to speedrun and get the right upgrades was really fun, audio was awesome, and the graphics reminded me of rollercoaster tycoon or simcity which gave me a good nostalgia feel!
