    I saw "Sim Tower" and clicked immediately.
    Time to watch the video and hope it's amazing.

    • @Ycekhold
      @Ycekhold 8 лет назад +5

      I concur. I was a big fan of _SimTower_ back in the day, and having a spiritual successor to it being available now is quite cool.

    • @JegoEXP
      @JegoEXP 8 лет назад

      I completely forgot about SimTower until I watched this video. Pretty cool, brought back memories from when I was in grade school.

    • @FuriKitten
      @FuriKitten 8 лет назад

      there was also Yoot tower (after the sim tower developer) which was a more refined sim tower.
      I just hope they put uncle reggae in this one

      @blueyesoul3546 8 лет назад

      I was just thinking about simtower the other day wondering why no one makes games like that anymore.

  • @Desrtfox71
    @Desrtfox71 8 лет назад +9

    Just FYI, a "copy center" in a large facility (like a high-rise) is very much still a thing due to it being far more cost efficient than having individual machines on each desk. It's also usually vastly more capable due to the availability of high end devices, and considerably more secure as well.

  • @kungfuchef8500
    @kungfuchef8500 8 лет назад

    Quill, the fact that you knew of Sim Tower makes me incredibly happy

  • @landonkryger
    @landonkryger 8 лет назад

    I loved SimTower. I'm so excited to play what looks like a total makeover and updated version of it.

  • @Cliffdog01
    @Cliffdog01 8 лет назад +1

    I love this. I would absolutely enjoy a full LP series.

  • @HeruKane
    @HeruKane 8 лет назад +1

    This is really cool. So glad you showed it and stuff, probably going to get it as I loved Sim Tower.
    My only graphics commentary is that people walk through each room to get to the back rooms. I wish there was a sort of foreground hallway and a background shops. But this is just an aesthetic thing.

  • @Seriously_Unserious
    @Seriously_Unserious 8 лет назад

    Those phones are so Saved By the Bell! When Quill was looking at that store, I kept expecting to see Zack and Slater to come running in up to some sort of mischief. LOL.
    This definitely does need a full let's play!

  • @tarkjj6043
    @tarkjj6043 8 лет назад +2

    I really want this game. I loved SimTower back in the day and this would help scratch that itch.

  • @SuperRIDDE5
    @SuperRIDDE5 8 лет назад

    I definitely agree with Quill, it's feels like a game you can relax to. I'll be waiting in joy for a series of this!

  • @TheClumsyGeekGaming
    @TheClumsyGeekGaming 8 лет назад +1

    Thanks for showing this man. I loved Sim Tower, and I even made a similar (although really simplistic) game during my college days. Would love to play this as well!

  • @RealLuckless
    @RealLuckless 8 лет назад

    Great memories of SimTower, and this is looking very promising. I do hope that the "Traffic management" aspect for larger towers stays important. Looking forward to seeing some more of this on your channel, and also just added it to my steam Wishlist and will likely pick it up on launch day if it isn't insanely priced.

    @OptimusGnarkill 8 лет назад

    Awesome vid quill! You should definitely make this a series. I used to play SimTower back in the day constantly and this definitely brings back memories. Would love to see you continue this. Do itttttttttttt

  • @Phr34d0m
    @Phr34d0m 8 лет назад

    As a huge fan of SimTower - and sad that the building management sub-genre of simulation games never took off after its release - I cannot wait for this to drop.
    That said, I didn't even know this game existed until this video appeared on my recommended list on YT - thank you, quill, for giving this game some publicity!

  • @ItsGroundhogDay
    @ItsGroundhogDay 8 лет назад

    I'm always glad to see something different. I normally ignore the standard Civ or whatever the latest video is.

  • @NimicNOR
    @NimicNOR 8 лет назад +2

    I'm really missing the elevators from Sim Tower. A very small thing, I know, but it just feels good to watch those elevators run up and down, and not just have people seemingly teleport through them.

  • @SolvedWarrior14
    @SolvedWarrior14 8 лет назад

    Hey Quill. I just saw this video in my recommendations on RUclips and really enjoyed it. I watched the whole thing and subscribed. So glad I found you!

    Jeez, now I have to go back the memory lane and play Sim Tower. Quality game!

  • @drdking0
    @drdking0 8 лет назад

    Sim Tower was one of my favorite sim games as a child. This looks like a great spiritual successor. If you have the in game money you should diversify and build an apartment tower.

  • @danielhamilton5495
    @danielhamilton5495 8 лет назад

    Holy cow. The design of the tower employees (maintenance and the like) are definitely straight out of Sim Tower. So is the non finished floor. I remember having floors filled with ladders like that.
    Sim Tower was the first Sim game I ever played, it is basically why I only play Sims and strategy games on PC while all the action games are on other systems.
    After all of that rambling I hope you do more. It will fill the need I have for this game until it comes out.

    @LeaderofChickens 8 лет назад

    You are one of the most informed youtubers about their games they play while people like DevilDo, not calling him shit, where they jump into a very technical game (HOI4) without knowing what the stats are and ideas that are commonly used by just playing as Germany and playing the first few years

    Reminds me of a mobile game called Tiny Tower

    • @quill18
      @quill18  8 лет назад +53

      Tiny Towers was surprisingly fun -- though it wasn't "really" a Sim Tower clone. Just a similar vibe, plus some really annoying micro/grinding.

    • @Normacly
      @Normacly 8 лет назад +2

      I believe there is also a flash version online for years now. It is not as complicated (for example no building time) as this game, but everything else is very similar. It was fun until the 40th level when game started to lag and I already unlocked everything.

    • @uncle_gispatcho9633
      @uncle_gispatcho9633 8 лет назад +2

    Looks and feels like Sim Tower and Sim Tower 2!
    Thanx for covering this! I spendt to many hours playing Sim Tower on my trusty old Pentium-based computer in the day, nice to see that I can spend even more hours soon! :)

  • @zacwhertvine6765
    @zacwhertvine6765 8 лет назад

    When you started this I was mostly bored and had nothing else to watch, but as you progressed I'm feeling much more intrigued. I'd like to see where this tower you're building goes and the game may have just made my potentials list.

  • @Codan3
    @Codan3 8 лет назад +36

    reminds me of Corporation Inc. a game on armorgames, played it years ago.

    Actually large companies / office buildings still have copy services - that's not an old thing. For example, a college / university usually always has one to print mass quantities of syllabi and notes for professors, or even bound materials like brochures to mail out to prospective students.

    Imagine if you could do things this sensibly in real life, building floors as needed, ensuring a filled building that makes profit.
    While in real life it's like, build a huge complete finished tower, THEN wait and beg for people to move in and rent the space. xD

  • @realifenow4485
    @realifenow4485 8 лет назад

    I grew up on SimTower. I was about 10 the first time I started playing. Those were the good old days... No touch screens or anything like that. You actually had to go outdoors when your eyes started hurting.
