Build a living city on rails in Steel Artery: Train City Builder

Set in a steampunk fantasy world with many different races, Steel Artery: Train City Builder is an interesting looking take on a city-builder. Based on rails, your city will be constantly moving which comes with its own challenges.

It's not just the constant movement that makes it a challenge, Steel Artery doesn’t give you direct control over citizens either. They act on their own economy-driven needs—choosing jobs, resting, spending money, forming families, and shaping their own stories, you're just there to provide the opportunities they take.

More about it: "Once a symbol of the Empire’s technological dominance, the legendary Steelpolis has been revived in desperate times. As its newly appointed mayor, you must turn this colossal train into a living city, ensuring prosperity for your citizens while keeping the Empire alive."

Developer SoulAge23 recently announced they've partnered up with publisher Crytivo to help with it. And, the first official trailer has been released to get a good look at it:
