So to kick off the beginning of Parkitect's life I want to begin this thread for all. For those of you who do not know about Parkitect it is a game that stems from the love in our hearts for the old Roller Coaster Tycoon game style currently being created by Sebastian Mayer, Garret Randell and Gordon McGladdery. It has one of the best gameplays from a roller coaster game I've personally experienced since RCT2 with a unique art style and very active developers eager to improve every aspect of the game! In this megathread you can discuss any and all things Parkitect! I will do my best to post each Devlog here every time one is released as well as giving you the link to view them yourself here.
I'm going to take a little bit of info from their website http://www.themeparkitect.com/ and post it here:

"Parkitect is a business simulation game that charges you with the construction and management of theme parks!
Simply put, you build the rides and manage the parks, and management is key! The parks need planning, more planning than just where to put that crazy rollercoaster. Lay down the infrastructure to remove trash and deliver supplies to the shops quickly and efficiently. Hire staff to run your shops, rides and attractions, and be sure to keep them happy.
This game is still in active development, so you should expect to stumble across some bugs. Content is fairly limited and there's no goal or challenge yet. You should already get a couple hours of entertainment out of it though.
If that doesn't scare you we'd be happy if you join!

Also to kick this off I will be livestreaming gameplay of it on Monday November 9th, 2015 at 1pm PST! I'm even considering a giveaway for the game for the viewers
Alright, without further ado here is the latest Devlog! I'll do my best to keep you guys up to date every single week.
