IsoTower Pre-Alpha Version
This game is initially a isometric (2.5d) remake of the game Sim Tower by Maxis/Yoot, released in 1994.  Only the basic elements of building empty flooring and rooms are in place, along with a simple economy system that collects rent.  Buttons are along the top of the screen.  There are only two types of hotel rooms and the ability to build offices.  A lobby is required before any other room can be built.  Elevators are limited to a single car per shaft, and sort of move slowly, but they're in development at this time so whatever.  Elevators do NOTHING right now.  You can build them (for too much money), and hit 'd' to test the animation, but that's about it at the moment. (also, no one can move between floors, all people movement is purely done on the first floor).

Other useful tips: rooms must have at least one square with a clear path to the lobby to be considered 'connected' to the lobby.  If they aren't connected, then they will never recieve people in them.  This doesn't really matter since you get rent payment anyway, but it'll make a difference in the near future.  There's a few other things I probably forget, but I'm kind of rushing this out so any additional notes will be added as time goes on.

Any graphic that is actually good is made by KiddyGrinder.  Everything else is made by me.

Customization is possible via the config.xml file, see that file for notes on how to make changes.
