SimCity Clone

SimCity has always been one of my favorite game franchises. I loved playing the originals growing up and I think it will be a lot of fun creating my own, so here I go! I’m trying to keep the scope really small with this, so no elaborate feature plan, just three steps to start.

• (weekend 1) Render colored buildings and roads.
• (weekend 2) Add a simple simulation for RCI.
  
• (weekend 3) Make some UI to allow real time play.
• (weekend 4) Cool, I have a little game. What should I do with it next?

Work has been busy so my personal big project is on hold. I started this little game so I could spend more time enjoying what I love, programming.

Knowledge acquired so far on project.

• Building and using SharpDX
• Supporting real time window resize in DirectX
• Enabling / Disabling alt-enter support
• DirectX object cleanup through IDisposable
