Description:

Once upon the time, I was travelling over the Internet, and I found a city simulator under linux called FreeReign at SourceForge. But it isn't maintained any more. I decided to push the game up so I had a look at the FreeReign sources. However, its codes were not obvious to me, and in addition the game design didn't fit my programming style. Finally, I decided to write my own free 3D city simulator, based on the original ideas of the FreeReign project. Few months later, OpenCity was born.
OpenCity is a full 3D city simulator game project. Contrary to popular on-line games such as roulette and flash games, you have to download it to your computer before playing. OpenCity is written in standard C++ with OpenGL and SDL from scratch. It is not intended to be a clone of any famous city simulator from Max*s. So, if you are looking to download a free SimCity 4 like, please forget OpenCity. I work on it at my spare time, and I really meant it "my spare time" !
OpenCity is also an OpenGL/SDL/C++ game programming tutorial. In the resources section, you can find the micro simulators' algorithm, design document, UML diagram and information about other issues. The UML diagram is edited with Umbrello, the free UML diagram editor for KDE.

Additional Info

Here is Open City, a (early indeveloppement) City simulation game.

The game use glshim. I changed a few controls, so {A}/{B} now rotate the view, and {X}/{Y} zoom.

The game is at it's early stage of developpement, so things are not perfect (for example, you cannot have road and electric line crossing!)

v0.6.4.01

The real author can be seen only in the "package content", that is hidden by default... I suppose this is a thing that should be improved in the repo. Anyway I like "unfinished" projects too, so please continue porting :)

@edgex004..so let us agree to disagree and squash this conversation because I grow tired of it. Have a nice day :)

@edgex004..Whether free or paid a game or app should be completed unless one is just trying to appeal to developers.Which I think from a mass consumer standpoint is not wise at all for many reasons.

v0.6.4.01

@CCF.. Oh, well I meant I just did not understand what you were saying about repo/repossession. It is fine that you disagree. It think if we had a focus on commercial apps, it would be more to your liking. We have more in common with the F-Droid open source Android repo rather than the Play Store.

@edgex004..i was not joking. I see your point but totally disagree. I am glad Android does not follow your thinking :)
