Dan: Puts down a roundabout to ease congestion at an intersection Also Dan: Moves one of the connecting roads off the roundabout to make a new intersection, undoing all progress
21:04 was so fucking lucky. Tha bottom yellow thing upgraded as it was about to lose the game, which gave it a higher storage and started reversing the timer.
one thing that is very unpleasant is the moving kick. you can pan around almost all sounds but not the low frequencies of a kick/click. it's super distracting on my DT 1990's. but love the little bleb and blops. very modular synth sounding.
@@dinopoloclub is there any chance you’d consider having the motorways be a bit more opaque and marked by dashed lines; effectively have them be underground instead of bridges? Not sure if it’s intentional or not but it’s quite bloody hard to make any changes under them, or see if a building is filling.
It's just occurred this would translate into a physical boards game relatively easily, and that I also really want a selection of little pastel coloured houses and businesses to build a lovely world with.
Islanders is one my favorites, just a nice chill puzzle game, and this strikes a lot of the same notes as Islanders - the way you get new components and such. I think my wallet will understand.
45:25 bananas. Honestly, I'll probably put it on a wishlist and maybe pick it up if it goes on sale. I like the idea that it's Mini Metro with slightly more complicated mechanics. However, like how Mini Metro has an issue where it spawns too many of one shape station too often, this one needs a little more randomness in the placement of houses of the same color after the initial cluster (which I understand, as it is like a new neighborhood due to the new "pull factors" in the area). I also see that it takes longer for changes to take place since the number & frequency of cars using the roads is higher (Dan changed the motorway on the Tokyo map that took nearly 1.5 minutes to change because one car would keep turning on it before the other one got off, less likely to happen in Mini Metro unless you stacked a line).
Nice thing about this having been out for months already, there’s vids of people doing really really well on UA-cam already. 2 takeaways, 1)never ever ever let two colors share a road or intersect. 2) use spare roads to block buildings from appearing where you don’t want them
I can’t be the only one who’s genuinely upset by the way Dan does his roads, not only does it look bad but it’s also inefficient so there’s zero upside, there’s a reason roads aren’t like that in real life Daniel
@@Nunofurbiznus the only reason i think it'd be a little hard is because you'd have to wait for all your cars to go home, or get to their destination, and they're all stuck there. so from the time the roads start deleting to full deleting, and then the time it takes after replacing the roads, you might lose due to not enough attention at an attraction, but thats just a theory, I've not played the game myself.
You should be picking bridges before roundabouts as bridges are essential, roundabouts are luxuries/refinements. Not picking bridges before roundabouts screwed more than one game in this stream.
Picked it up so I had something quiet to do in my puppies down time. Couldn't stop screaming why did you spawn that there. Was a louder game then I thought
If you mean "immediately demand a refund" then: yes, you're right. Cars keep driving on removed roads without any way to remove them means this game is infinitely worse than mini metro, which was quite fun.
They stop driving on regular roads once the cars that need the road no longer do. And motorways seem to be similar but usually takes longer in my experience. Which in practice means you often need a few extra roads on hand in order to effectively be able to reorganize roads. What I didn't like was that I paused and deleted everything because I wanted to try a different strategy but all the remaining roads and motorways were still visible and I couldn't place many of them in new places before they had all gone.

Thanks so much for streaming, Dan! Glad to see you putting those purple houses in their place.
i love you
me: I can be strong, I can be strong
steam: Thank you for your purchase
The in-game "ping" noises for when people spawn or are picked up change pitch to match the background music and I love it ❤️

this game like sounds really good... its so clicky and plonky and lovely

You're embarrassing
@@adammonk27 ha, what the fuck? okay dude sure
@@adammonk27 you’re just saying words. How is he cringe?
I remember getting mini metro after your video! I'll get this too!
me too
Same, about to buy it right now
Gonna go play Mini Metro now!
@@henriklarsen8193 I did yesterday
same! I have been so impatient with mini morotways' release, I bought it thr second it came to steam
The entire video is just
Beeps - 10%
Nerd talking - 25%
Reading donations/subscriptions - 20%
"THATS A YEAR!!" - 45%
But in the end, it's 100% "is this by the people that made Mini Metro?"
I’d like to apologise for continuing with all the jokes after being asked to stop.
It was very road of me.
Your existence pleases me...
I thought you were funny. But then you began to *turn lane*
It's always your way or the highway with you...
I’m expresswaylingly Pleased with your jokes
@@khagemann7462 I am less pleased with your existence...
I'm hoping there's going to be a more chill option. Like a slower demand or something
i do too. Mini Metro had an efficiency mode, and it was my favorite
We plan on rolling out all sorts of extra game modes, just like we have on Mini Metro. :D Definitely in the cards!

@@spartan117zm you know you can drag the shield right?
@@itzememario I didn’t know that before I played the game, no, lol. I do know that now after having bought it. Thank you though!

me before the video: "shut up, no I won't."
me 10 minutes in: "oh god, he's right..."
You're the sole purpose I bought this game. I got this recommended and after a few minutes I felt compelled. Thanks!
Islanders is one my favorites, just a nice chill puzzle game, and this strikes a lot of the same notes as Islanders - the way you get new components and such.
I think my wallet will understand.
I like how he is going on about how great Taskmaster New Zealand is while not realising he is playing a game made by a New Zealand studio
it's like managing traffic in a city without city planning.
45:25 bananas.

The one where nerdcubed creates spaghetti junction 2: electric boogaloo

47:50 "24 months, that's a year!" well. not exactly.
Dan is the best game reviewer because now I have to buy it and play it right to show him how it is done even though he will never see or know!
If only these cities had a metro network to help reduce congestion
they should merge the games into one
@@settle180 dan said that too!! 1:42:38
I could watch you do this all day
suffer?
You convinced me to get Mini Metro....grabbing this one too now.
Their next game : Mini Walkways
I'm wondering how long it took Dan to get to bridges and stuff, I play games slow and I felt the pacing was perfect.
Oh you get introduced to those in the tutorial
I can’t be the only one who’s genuinely upset by the way Dan does his roads, not only does it look bad but it’s also inefficient so there’s zero upside, there’s a reason roads aren’t like that in real life Daniel
Was listening while doing hw, I hella smiled when you did PAM PAM! You didn't even have to reference it!!
I’d personally scrape everything at a certain point and organize the roads, I wonder if you’re able to do that
roads don't clear/rebuild until after the cars are off of it, so I don't think so.
@@neverohkay you’d just have to wait for the cars to clear, it’d be pretty easy I think but who knows

You're right, I am definitely going to try this.
I saw Jon play this and immediately re downloaded mini metro and desperately searched for this game. Then I realized it wasn't out yet 😭

I watch almost half of this without skipping so I think I can watch the rest
Just bought this game yesterday absolutely addicted LA is my favorite map
You're right, I will buy it. Why does it release on a Tuesday instead of on a weekend when we can actually play it?
So note to self, when playing this don't try and keep colors seperate
Can’t wait for this game.
It’s on Apple Arcade
This feels kind of like Freeways
Yes. If they make a mobile version!!
It was streams like these that made me want to buy mini metro..
Watched the full stream, was very fun
"I will buy this game"..."ASSIMILATE!!"
Please make a official video on this
1:09:25 wayyyyyyyyy!
Picked it up so I had something quiet to do in my puppies down time. Couldn't stop screaming why did you spawn that there. Was a louder game then I thought
I need this game yesterday.
Every time a pin appears: Bosh
It is currently the 20th and I am spamming refresh in suspense, just let me play already!
the game is releasing at 4pm BST.
~70 days appear to be Dan's downfall
I'd love to see more of this!
i know this will be an entertaining video on nerdcubed
titled confirmed.
Im here because I cant buy it YET
@1:16 Just use logic! You win!
You got it!
Calling out coreross 🤣🤣🤣 “suck it” 1:25:41
Mini Metro crossed with Freeways? Interesting.
I was so bad at mini metro, can't wait to be terrible at this too.
i would buy this game if i have money to buy it with
I'd love to see Dan play the Terra Nil demo if he hasn't yet. I think he'd like it
I will buy this game, yes, question is, when will I have the money?
1:00:45 laughed my ass off. Best moment hands down.
American city planning simulator
If Zen was stressful
100% in on lego build streams
I got 50lbs of Legos are you saying a upload youtube videos of playing with Legos?
Why do I have to wait u til the 20th??
*sad noises*
you were right. I did.
Had a terrible thought. One of the optimum strategies of this game is to play segregation simulator
This is my kind of game
I got 9 seconds in and purchased it.
Has he done Dorfromantik yet???
Made by the same devs as mini metro huh?
Jokes on you I already have!
Very good
Jerrys Game
Can confirm, I have bought this game…
I will buy this game
I did infact buy this game.
I would like to buy but poor

@@Muskar2 No, they don't. They keep turning onto it, at least in the version I bought and returned through Steam yesterday.
haha gottem, my friend bought it for me i didnt buy it
I do have to ask; How much did they pay you to make this vid?
While very pretty, this seems like a more stressful mini metro. Do not want.
No. I won't.
What the heck, mini metro ripoff?
Liar
This seems like a worse version of freeways
You couldn't pY ME TO Play this pile of junk.
