Author Topic: Civitas - DRM free, moddable, community-driven SimCity clone, on Kickstarter.  (Read 2321 times)



Since the absolutely horrible SimCity release, a SimCity clone, named "Civitas", is in the making. They need to your help to make a realistic 3d city-building game without any DRM's, with mod support, offline support, and much more features which were left out of SimCity. It will work on Linux, Mac, and Windows-based systems, too.

looks cool, but these kickstarter projects never finish D:

loving kickstarter

op please put kickstarter in the thread title so people like me aren't disappointed

Why is the door so big compared to the road in the last picture.

This game seems like it's trying to cash in on the stuffty launch of SimCity. I doubt it's going to be anywhere near what they're promising by the time it comes out.

This is the worst idea I've seen today. EA will be up with the SimCity patch and everyone will be playing this game, while EA prepares their lawyers to rip this game apart.

Looked somewhat promising, up to this point.

We will even help you create unique natural disasters as well. I mean you never know when you might want a giant lizard to attack your city right?
That's just TRYING to get EA to sue them of SOMETHING.


also I can't help but wonder
250$ backer reward is a monument in their honor in the game
there's 28+9 of those backers
that's a lot of loving monuments

Oh wow. First,
This is the worst idea I've seen today. EA will be up with the SimCity patch and everyone will be playing this game, while EA prepares their lawyers to rip this game apart.
Second, it seems like they're just trying to poke Simcity with a 5 inch, pointy stick. Really. They just seem to be mocking Simcity's launch failure.


Looks like my type of game, definitely not gonna buy SimCity, it's 60$, not loving worth it.

It looks successful, but like I said in the megathread: this is riding off of the launch failure and the fact that people are looking for an alternative. As soon as the game becomes fully playable, people will forget all about this game. This wouldn't seem so suspect if they had started this before SimCity released.
