Update: v0.5.0
Hello,
With this update, more resource types and mechanics are added. You have more control over the late game. And, overall game difficulty is easier now.
The most notable changes are:
Mining feature; Removed "Material Industry" and added "Mine" instead. Now there are new types of building material resources; "Stone", "Coal" and "Cement". Mines extract natural resources that can be seen using the "Biome and Natural Resources" view mode. Natural resources are limited, when all resources are extracted, mines shut down. Also, you should keep in mind, mines cannot be demolished.
Seaport; Added new zone type - Seaport, and added a new UI panel to manage seaports. Seaports can only be built adjacent to the sea. You can trade any resources/products using seaports.
New management panel - "Manage Workers". You can limit or shut down an industry.
New management panel - "Manage Buildings". You can allow or avoid new buildings to be built over any zone type. So you can save or manage building materials. Also, It makes managing employment and population easier.
Tier system is removed. It was unnecessarily complicating the management. Now all kinds of people are able to work at any workplace.
All details are below.
Thank you for your support and playing early access! Have fun!

On some platforms, the mouse cursor position update rate is low and when you move or rotate the camera, the frame rate looks also low. Now camera controls are smooth regardless of mouse cursor update rate.
Changelog
- Platform; Camera controls are smooth now.
Update: v0.4.1
Hello,
This update is mostly about some critical bugs that occur on some platforms. This also includes some improvements from the next update.
The most notable changes are:
Roads can be demolished now. However, if people can't access the workplaces, they leave the job.
Randomly given operations are smarter now to avoid recurring operations.
Added macOS support experimentally.
Actually, these features would be published along with a greater update but some critical bugs are found. So they are published early along with this update. And this update is not compatible with the previous game save but gives you an opportunity to downgrade the game if you want to keep playing your old saved state.
Now, I'm working on new content and game mechanics. Thank you for your understanding, and support. Have fun!
