How the Game Works

• The player must meet the water consumption needs of the city through a turn base game.
  
  • i.e. Water distribution and supply must meet or exceed water consumption needs.
  • Water consumption is dependent upon temperature and population
    • Higher temperature and population means higher water consumption, and vice versa.
  • The player loses a life for each turn this requirement is not fulfilled.
  • After the player loses 10 lives then the game is over.
  • The game is considered won when the player has lasted until turn 50.
• The player can invest in different infrastructure to manipulate Water Distribution:
  
  • Water Tower
    • Investments increases water distribution maximum.
  • Water Sources
    • Investments increases water availability, the maximum ammount to be drawn from each source.
    • Availability cannot exceed the water source's reserve.
  • Water Shipments
    • Investment make available a supply of water that is not refilled by rain.
• Money comes in the form of taxes each turn and varies based on the population amount.
• Different events can occur that affect the flow of gameplay.
  
  • These events affect:
    • Populaion through migration events.
    • Temperature through cold and warm fronts.
    • Rain frequency through droughts and monsoons.
  • Water sources' reserves are replenished slightly on rain events.

Modeling the City

• City was built using two different Low-Poly European City Packs that were free on the Unity Asset Store.
  • Decorations Set
  • Buildings Set
• Everything lies on a terrain with a hole left for the lake.
• Lake water was made using Advanced Water prefab in the unity standard assets package.
• Cloud was a model downloaded off Sketchfab. Cloud Model
• Rain was created using the Unity Particle System.
  
• The Lake moves up and down based on the amount of water in it.
