Inspired by:
-Transport tycoon
-Different railroad simulators

Engine:
-Unity

Platforms:
-Android/IOS/Web/Windows/MacOS

Beta version:
android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ekindiegames.ElectricTrains

I plan to post here some technical and gameplay videos.

Seems like a pretty large scope for your first experience in game development! Good luck though, screenshot looks great already! I just finished spending way too much time playing Transport Fever and loved the visuals of the game.

Hope to see some updates soon!

Thank you. You are right. I'm trying to make the game simpler in some aspects.
I like visual part of Transport Fever too. It's a good example of how the game might look like

Some technical demonstrations.  Optimizations behind main camera.

Wow, that's pretty neat! Did you do everything yourself?

[m_iden]

JobLeonard, thank you.

I did almost everything myself with help of forums .
I bought some models of people.

[JobLeonard]

Impressive!

Sounds like a good call regarding the train models - they must be quite lot of work to do accurately, and there's nothing wrong with letting experts do that for you

[m_iden]

Thanks Sorry, but i forget about sound design. It's not my work too
