Parkitect



Dec 30, 2018

Parkitect is an indie simulation game made by Texel Raptor. Deform the terrain, place water, build structures! With a huge selection of deco objects from various themes you can design your park however you want. And for more you can get custom scenery from the Steam Workshop or mod in your own! Parkitect does a great job of delivering where Planet Coaster did not. The former is more oriented towards the management side of theme park design, while the latter was a creative playground that.


Some notes about my expierences in managing decoration and llusion score.

Motivation


ParkitectAfter playning some scenarios I tried to determine, how to design the park to get the best illusion. All I this information was discovered by experimentation and observation. There might be other aspects and elements implemented. Also this is observed with version 1.2.

Observations about Decoration Score


What decreases the score for a place:
  • Infrastructure visibile.
  • Demolished furniture (benches, trash cans, lamps).
  • Junk on the pathes.
  • Border fence.

Decoration elements increase the score but:
  • There must be elements of decoration to any direction of a place.
  • Just painted terrain does not count.
  • Terraforming can help to hide bad elements.

Observations about Illusion Score


  • The most customers start with neutral or bad illusion score.
  • The score rises when customers are at places with good decoration score.
  • The score drops when customers are are places with bad decoration score.
  • The score drops when customers see staff that is carrying stuff.
  • It takes some time to build up a good illusion score.
  • To forge illusion a slow moving ride in decorated environment is helpful (e.g. Old Cars Ride).
