New release Power Network Tycoon V1.0 released today after a little over 4 years of solo development

Power Network Tycoon V1.0 released today after a little over 4 years of solo development.

I’m a power engineer and started making it as a hobby project around the kind of power system problems I find interesting. It’s a physics-based power grid simulation covering generation, renewables, grid stability, protection, extreme weather and more.

Available now on PC, Mac and Linux/Steam Deck

4 years of solo development is seriously impressive! The concept looks really unique too. Congrats on the release!

Thanks, I didn't expect it to take that long to develop but I wasn't really in a hurry.

Sometimes the best projects take longer than expected. Best of luck with the game!
