    Wait I'm sure I saw a very similar game in KDE Discover once. Are there 2 similar games being developed at the same time? Anyways great to see more FOSS games and I love the programming language choice.

      Possibly OpenTTD?

      Same developer but different games, from what I can tell he released Transport Tycoon first, then Locomotion which had ?better graphics and less complexity?

      I'll have to try openloco, I've only ever played OpenTTD and it's pretty good

        https://www.reddit.com/r/openttd/comments/y5afez/openloco_vs_openttd/ would be nice to know where the exact difference between the two is.

    To retain the look and feel of the original game, we use the original game data for graphics and audio. This means it is required for players to have installed their own copy of Locomotion for OpenLoco to work. It can be bought on e.g. Steam or GOG.com.

    Will OpenLoco ever become a standalone and independent game?
