The maker of this beautiful retro city builder wants to include events like bank robberies, police chases, and zombie outbreaks

A retro pixelated city builder in isometric view.

When I first saw isometric city builder Metropolis 1998 back in January, it shot to the top of my wishlist because it lets you design and decorate every single building in your town. That's awesome. It's also oozing with pixelated charm thanks to the chunky retro graphics, making it feel like a nostalgic throwback but with modern features.

In exciting news for city builder fans, the demo for Metropolis 1998 was just updated to include five whole months of new features, so there's lots more to play with. What's got me especially interested is the development roadmap packed with features that are planned for the 1.0 launch, and some really interesting "aspirations" developer Yesbox Games hopes to include post-1.0.
