Rollercoaster Tycoon World was indefinitely delayed after poor reactions to the beta. Meanwhile every update makes this game look better and better.

Made by the same people who made RCT3.

Yeah this game looks so good. I've given up on all other theme park games and I'm hyped for this one now. I hope they can get it out fairly soon.

It's a similar release strategy to Elite Dangerous. You can pay extra when pre ordering to get alpha access.

This alpha starts next month and is updated till release day.

Wow crowds are impressive. They use a flow simulation so people don't pass through each other. With very wide paths they fill them naturally while with very narrow paths they go single file.

That's pretty dang cool! You're making me really want to play it but I don't want to spend the money...

How many features are the right now?

Yeah I wish I had it.

They are using the alpha for feedback so it only has things in a mostly finished state. You can make paths, make buildings, and place flatrides in sandbox.

However by entering the code "underconstruction" in the search bar it unlocks the unpolished coaster making tools. Next alpha update will focus on these.
