Ah, Mayor again! Let's just see how the city has been doing since I last
oh shitOkay. Um. Hm.
The first order of business is to add two more hospitals and five crematoriums.
Don't forget to keep the parking brake on.
It looks like time for some of my patented Interesting traffic solutions!
Yes, much better! Not only does the traffic flow, but it looks patently absurd. Just the way I like it.
Large scale abandonment is still a problem. Between that and significant health/death care expansions, our weekly budget is far in the red. The mines are suffering especially.
Soon the skies will grow dark with the smoke of the dead. At least, I hope that happens soon, because out buildings are
full of corpses. Thanks, Karlito.
It only took three months, but the death problem is mostly taken care of. We've un-forbidden all the socks lying about the abandoned buildings, and it's only a matter of time until they are reclaimed.
Now it's time to address that worthless forestry district. Every building there is either operated entirely by overeducated workers, or abandoned. I told you guys chopping wood was unfit work! I'm de-zoning the entire thing to make way for residential areas.
Hey, was Elitist Island always misspelled?
It's come to my attention that this city has a terrible lack of parks. Time to knock down houses and place a few!
Now that we have a bouncy castle, people will move in for sure.
There's a ton of traffic coming out of Elitist Island that's backed up. The intersections are way too dense.
This, uh, seems to be better. Maybe.
Now citizens are flying between the sidewalk and elevated bridge. Huh.
Huzzah! About a million dollars later, I have undone what Karlitos has done! The city grows again! With monuments unlocked, it's time to plop down some more Unique buildings.
Yes, Unique! This is the most unique looking mall.
Restoring normal tax rates after Karlito's desperate bid to keep people from moving out sees my income jump from about 2,500 a week to about 50,000 a week. Megaprojects, here we come!
In preparation for large new zoning, I move the power plant that supports the sewage pumps out into its own secluded corner of nowhere.
I've begun a large expansion north of the old forestry area. Because the mines and even fully upgraded forge district are all full of over-educated workers, I've decided to build a large office area.
Since offices thrive on services, I add a small metro line in addition to a bus route.
Traffic circles for the traffic god! Making this took like ten minutes, the road tools can be
uncooperative sometimes.
The Heights are getting a stadium! They didn't ask for it, but they're getting it. This unlocks the Space Elevator! Sadly, that costs one and a half million dollars.
Months later, the Heights also get a university. Yes, we've finally reached the need for two!
After a few iterations, I've come upon the design for this traffic
circle lemniscate squid monster. It might be ugly, but it certainly gets traffic
where it needs to go somewhere.
It is December now. Soon I will retire to my shack in the mountains next to the power plant, with my red sports car, and wait until some other mayor fucks it up again. Wait- that's not my sports car! It belongs to Willow Miller, who lives in the houses next to the gold mines, and works on Working Joe Island!
Why the hell is he parked there?Yes, it says he's at home. You can just see the dirt road up to the power plant where he's parked, way out in the distance.
Well, I've made a lot of traffic improvements, and I've grown the city to 78,000 people. I was struggling for space, it may be time to expand into the wide flat zones into the south or west. There is still ample power, water, civic services and education, and the city is bringing in money enough for the next mayor to build a Space Elevator. Lastly, I would like to say that while I have not always been efficient in designing roadways, allegations that I spend city street funds on some kind of personality vanity project are
completely spurious. Oh yeah, and just FYI, I turned off a bunch of crematoriums so we can fill up three graveyards to unlock some unique building or another. I think that's the last thing we need for a fusion reactor.
