Zen Landscape Editor
A great game, relaxing and creative just like how it was promised. But there are some things that can be worked on to make it so much more amazing. For example, placing objects like bridges is really hard to get it where you want, but placing things like people is very smooth and easy. Trees are on sand like platform which kinda ruins the green of many islands. Most objects like the villages are red, but would be cool if you can customize the colors of the ships, people, and structures. Customized controls would be AMAZING, it allows everyone to have their own style. Finally, it is a bit hard to rotate the screen for me. M for mute does not work either.

Lake Resort Flipper
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1108750/Timerunner/
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1489310/NecroCity/
Start your adventure in Lake Resort Flipper by finding a run-down resort that used to be a place filled with happy tourists. Find the perfect place, set a purchase price and take on the challenge. Start with basic repairs, hire staff and consistently improve your management skills. Learn what the entertainment industry is all about and expand into new areas.
Buy a devastated resort and start your renovation with basic repairs, such as: cleaning, repainting walls, repairing utility elements of the building and much more. Watch your funds closely, make sure you plan your spendings wisely. Your limited budget won’t let you hire professional workers every time, sometimes you’ll have to handle some difficult repairs by yourself. Before you start repairing the electrical system make sure you read the instructions on how to connect the wires - safety first! Do as much work as possible by yourself in order to save money and gain vital experience as a real handyman.
When the first guests finally arrive at your resort, you won’t be able to be everywhere at the same time. That’s the time when you’re gonna need to rely more on your staff. Check carefully qualifications and hourly rate of each employee you take onboard. A sophisticated hotel management system will let you monitor all the HR matters - if your employees are satisfied with their positions, when their contracts end, do they expect to get a pay raise? Pay close attention to your employees’ satisfaction, the competition is just waiting to poach your best people.
A nice room with direct access to the beach may not be enough to encourage tourists to choose your resort. You have to invest in a variety of attractions! How about… kayaks, motorboats, jet skis, wakeboarding, water bikes, windsurfing, sauna and many other water and beach activities you can offer to your guests in Lake Resort Flipper! Don’t forget to expand your indoor facilities as well. Offer your guests additional services of a masseur or a trainer and let them spend some time in one of your restaurants and bars.
Remember that Lake Resort Flipper is not only hard work but also heaps of fun! Enjoy the attractions offered by your resort - try motor boats or jet skis by yourself. Your business is your passion, so have fun!
The more money you earn, the more expansion opportunities will become available to you. Manage your resorts wisely in order to maximise their profits. It will allow you to acquire bigger properties that offer a broader range of attractions. The path to building your lake empire will surely be a bumpy ride. Buckle up and hold on tight.
NewCity
11/25/2020 update:
Hey look I used the edit button! The performance updates have significantly improved performance. Doing CCullingAlgo 1 appears to help, but also causes the rendering of the tiles to be a little wonky when you zoom in. Setting it to CCullingAlgo 2 appears to just cause the game to crash for some reason. With the largest map setting (125x125) and a population of around 600k I have still been unable to get the game to run at max speed consistently and will typically cap out at speed.

NewCity is a little different than similar titles in the genre: you aren’t going to be lord of the trash collectors, or worrying about how to fund your next power generator, or the fact that your water and sewage systems can’t handle the growth you have planned.
Believe me, when I first fired up the game and saw the player had none of these responsibilities, I did a little bit of head scratching and I wondered exactly how much content the game had and how difficult it was.
Well, I say to the skeptic: fear not!

FlowScape
My favorite purchase all year.
If you’re wondering what I’ve been able to do with FlowScape that led to my review, you can take a look at all of my projects here .
I knew the moment I laid eyes on this, I would most likely love it. It exceeded my expectations as a casual design & illustration tool that just about anyone can use. I have spent many hours putting together village & macro background scenes. The Sculpting tool allow you to create mountains, hills, lakes, rivers, as I see fit. The Painting tool allows you to create walkways. I can construct anything from realistic waterfalls to lost ruins with the Transformation tool to manipulate just about any object.

Wow, it’s difficult to say in words how impressive and relatively deep this instant gratification “game” is! Marketed as a game, but used by many as a 3D design tool. Oh, it’s not Maya, or Lightwave, or even Bryce or Blender, which is cool because we already have those. This is something different, and special, and FAST, and easy! And for all its limitations, what IS here is a lot deeper and impressive than you might imagine!
I’ve made a nice living from building scenes in 3D software for many decades, and I’ve spent countless hours working with wire-frames and pallets of textures and bump maps and lighting devices, and scratching my head over each new entries' exploration into the 3D modeling' procedures. It doesn’t replace those high-end spreads for many projects, but this WILL be replacing the high-rollers on a few projects and making my life so much easier!

Townscaper
Just an honest to goodness chill time. It’s definitely not a game, as the description itself even admits, but it excels as a tool to fulfill myriad purposes, be that of a creative outlet or simply a way to unwind for a few minutes. No time commitments, no goals and no real mechanics make Townscaper one of the purest sandboxes I’ve ever had the pleasure to spend some time in.
There is honest joy in placing random blocks on the grid and seeing them develop into houses, buildings, towns and discovering new shapes in the process, new special interactions between blocks.

It speaks volumes that most of the admittedly positive reviews of this game were made by people who clocked around 5-10 hours total. Townscaper is cute and fun for a day or two, but is severely lacking in features and diversity of content to be anything more than that. I was excited to explore it during Early Access, in the expectation that more features were on the way for the full release. A few months ago, however, the project exited Early Access, as the dev revealed that he has no plans to keep working on the project. This is extremely disappointing, as the project does have potential, but as it stands, it is extremely barebones, akin to an alpha build (sans the bugs), and with nothing on the horizon to turn this into an actual fully-fledged game, I unfortunately don’t recommend spending any money on it.

MOENTO - Modular Environment Toolkit
Let me start by saying that this is one of my favorite games at the moment.
I think we all have times when we just don’t know what to play, or you just want to relax and not play CS:GO against spinbotter… This is the game that fills this gap.
I randomly saw this game and instantly fell in love with the assets.
In the beginning it was a little hard to get an overview of all the buttons, but they were all pretty self understanding. After I played a little around I started working on a house. And let me tell… it is SO SATISFYING to do build anything in this game… the animations are on spot 3 I posted it on the Discord of bblessed Gamestudios and the Developer loved it… so sweet.

This is really, really awesome. Once you get used to the controls and how to work things, you can throw together pretty much anything. I give this game a 10/10
