Following the interest surrounding the first teaser trailer for building sim Project Highrise, Kasedo Games and SomaSim have announced that there is now a way to keep up-to-date with all the new developments in the under construction title.
A regular devblog by developer SomaSim is now available to give fans a sneak-peek into what is going on behind the scenes as they prepare for their summer 2016 release.
In reading the devblogs, you will see that Project Highrise is more than just building upwards. You will have to construct your architectural masterpiece within city rules and regulations as well as giving people what they want, becoming the go-to destination in the city for corporate activities, shopping, restaurants, and more – all while keeping the bank manager off your back of course.
Monthly entries to the devblog will become more frequent as the game nears release and will provide on-going updates on all aspects of development, delving into the games many features and demonstrating Project Highrise’s incredible depth. SomaSim will also answer frequently asked questions in each blog so you can keep up with all things Project Highrise.
Features:

- ● Huge variety of tenants with their own unique characteristics, from restaurants, to offices, retail stores, or residential apartments.
- ● Open sandbox play with several difficulty levels and starting conditions allowing you to build your dream skyscraper towering above the surrounding city.
- ● Campaign mode that tests your skill at building a successful highrise in challenging scenarios.

Your job as the architect and developer is to build world-famous skyscrapers that will be the envy of the entire city, masterpieces of art and engineering. But a skyscraper is more than just steel and glass, it’s an intricate ecosystem, full of people that live and work in the building. They become a complex machine that needs your steady hand to keep it running smoothly and efficiently.
As the architect you must coordinate the construction of everything – every wall and wire, every office and apartment. As the building owner you must keep your tenants happy – and paying rent on time. As a savvy developer you must keep an eye on the bottom line and invest in the future. Succeed and you will reap the rewards of a prestigious address where everyone will clamour to live and work. Fail and you will watch tenants leave in disgust, taking their business elsewhere and leaving your reputation in tatters.
Will you create an exclusive office highrise that attracts business leaders from around the world? Will you construct luxury apartments in the sky, penthouses for the elite and playgrounds for the famous? Perhaps greed will get the better of you and you’ll build a tenement building that trades tenant happiness for loads of cash? All these choices and more are yours. Success is entirely in your hands.
