What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“While we are still working on some additions, we would already like to hear your honest feedback so we can immediately work on anything that still needs improvement. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“December 2025”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“After many requests for deeper gameplay, I’m now adding better game mechanics. The final version will feature a society system with social groups that influence how districts look. Also I will add a more comfortable way to place streets, railway and bridges (click and drag). Besides this, there will also be a short tutorial within the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“You can build a city-scape, increase the population and earn special buildings as rewards. Please do not expect more at this point.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“I will slightly increase the price once the game is more complex.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“You can contact me with any suggestions you may have or any problems you encounter. I will answer all and try to implement whatever is possible.”

About This Game

Welcome to Pixelpolis Neon, a playful retro city-building experience inspired by classics like SimCity 2000, reimagined in a neon-lit cyberpunk setting. Step into a glowing synthwave world, where creativity is the key to shaping your very own pixel metropolis.

Build across 10 handcrafted maps (100x100 tiles each), each offering a fresh canvas for your ideas. With more than 400 unique buildings, all lovingly drawn by hand — no AI shortcuts here — you can design dazzling skylines, bustling districts, and neon-soaked streets that feel alive.

While the focus is on creative placement and visual storytelling, there’s just enough challenge to keep you engaged: balance your population and goods, unlock bonus buildings, and advance through levels as your city thrives.

Every corner of Pixelpolis Neon is infused with personality: from its vibrant pink-teal synthwave palette contrasting against the dark futuristic backdrop, to its immersive synthwave and dreamwave soundtrack, designed to keep you in the flow while your city expands.

So grab your grid, place your first block, and watch your Pixelpolis Neon come alive in a world where retro charm and cyberpunk vibes collide.

NOTE: The current Pixelpolis Neon version is not much more than a simple city-scape builder (like Dystopika). But after many requests for deeper gameplay, I’m now adding game mechanics. The coming version will feature a society system with social groups that influence how districts look. So far, there will be the Punks (Pink), the Cyborgs (Blue), and the Traditionals (Yellow). You will be able to support (or ignore) the needs of each group to shape your city-scape.
