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.

I feel like comparing OTTD to OpenLoco is a bit similar to comparing Freeciv to Freecol. OTTD and Freeciv just had so much more popularity and development. But OpenLoco and Freecol are still nice to try.
