Project Rally

A semi-city-building game where you move a character around a small neighborhood, establish buildings and do other activities.

Rally version 0.01 (first prototype) linux build is available for play and download now. Web version has been prepared but the screen-size is too small and there is performance issue. To properly play this build, download the file "rally_v0p01_linux.x86_64" and double-click on the executable to launch the game.

Currently only available on Linux machine. Windows build will be available as time goes on.

How to Play

It uses point-and-click control to choose an object/place where your character is going. After moving close to the object/place, click on the object/place again to display the available activities. Empty lots have "establish", Utility posts have "Activate", etc.

Utility Post

Like city-building games, you must activate the zoning before you can build buildings.

First, walk to an un-activated utility post (a road with an electric sign) and activate it. Beware that you need to pay some money to do so. 

After that, empty lots will be available to be built upon.

Zoning Types

Green Tile	Residential
Blue Tile	Commercial
Yellow Tile	Facility
Pink Tile	Logistic

Move your character near an empty lot, and then click on it again to enable the "Establish" interaction option. You will see another menu to choose which building to establish.

Ratings

Building commercials, facilities, and transport buildings to attract potential residence. There is rating and demand meter for population as shown in the top-right of the game UI.

As you build different facilities, each rating will go up and thus population demand will also grow. When there is some population demand, build some residentials so they can move in!

Energy

Energy is expended as you move about and do interactions. When it's out, you will not be able to execute any interactions (with some exceptions that build back energy) and your movement will be sluggish!

Go back to your room and rest to replenish.

Gates

There are several gates scattered around the neighborhood which prevent you from using the road.

So, go to these outposts and use your rally-points to rally it and gain passage!

Competition

 You will be playing against BigRealty to gain the residence's support. BigRealty will dispatch their agents (purple car as shown below) to build residentials or rally support for their own gain.

Your goal is to rally enough support (in the following screenshot on the left) by voting day to drive out BigRealty from your neighborhood and win the game!
