Constrcuction/Managment game tutorial/advice

Hello there, I have been researching the past couple of days and I am hoping to build a basic management construction type game a bit like simcity, Something where you place buildings, paths and objects onto a tiled grid.

I was wondering if anyone has any advice or tutorials to point me in the right direction and to help get me started??

Many thanks
Tom

 

Well, the first big decision you need to make is: 2.5D (isometric) or 3D?

I would start by browsing the Asset Store. There are some great city assets out there that I used for early prototypes of my High Frontier game. I used 3D, but you can find good 2.5D assets too (also on places like OpenGameArt.org).

Then, just dig right in, and when you run into something you don't know how to do, post here and we'll help!

Good luck,
- Joe
