  1. If the dev is watching this, I really like the UI design. Everything you need is displayed, it stays at the screen sides, allowing for a clean interaction surface, definitely a good start.
    In terms of negatives, I immediately noticed the lack of life signs. The roads basically project a generic, linear stream of cars that despawn at any corner, and the buildings itself have no people or other moving parts animated around them. It doesn't need to end up with [anno 2205]-tier details of life, which did an really awesome job in bringing its buildings to life, but the complete lack of it is immersion breaking, and makes this "city" more look like a sterile collection of blocks that even feel way smaller than what they're supposed to represent. Currently it feels like I'm looking on a motherboard, instead of a vibrant, breathing city, and the absence of any visual feedback on what is going on in the city, leaves me with nothing but notifications, numbers and spreadsheets to interact with its simulation.
    A demo should give me a glimpse on what I could expect of the final product, and from what I can see, I'd grow bored of it pretty quickly, even if it could convince with unique game mechanics, which it currently doesn't. Good luck with the development, and I genuinely hope for you to turn a profit with this, but currently I don't feel like putting it on my wishlist, or even keeping an eye out for it. It simply is too generic, and the disconnect between its visual and mechanical game simulation is immersion breaking. Maybe that will change in the coming months or years.
