Interesting gaming concept. I will be looking forward to and tracking this game. Glad to see a game that isn't just "combat" focused.
Used this one, but there was also one on Massively earlier.
...I just got this one first.

"When people tell me designing a game is easy, I try to get them to design a board game. Most people don't last 5 minutes, the rest rarely last more then a day. The final few realize it's neither fun nor easy."
Kotaku had a code as well.
The concept is very interesting, I hope it delivers.
Woot, improved chances!
I'm intrigued. The original SimCity was my first "real" computer game. I tried a couple of the later editions but none had quite the magic of the first.
I'm specifically curious about the pacing of the game: Can I log in and let it run in the background while I go about other business, or do I have to give it my undivided attention? Sims was a little too much of an attention-whore for my tastes.
Also, does anything happen with/to your city while you're offline?
Bah, I wish I 1) weren't at work and 2) weren't going out of town this weekend.

The less you expect, the more you'll be surprised. Hopefully, pleasantly so.
I remember hearing stuff along the lines of: Single player everything you'd expect along with adjustable time, cheats, or whatever. Online "slow time" even when you're not online, economic bonuses, social networking tools(big part), and similar.
I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.
Been following this one for about a month now. Game seems very refreshing from our usual combat games. I think this and the one NASA is putting out, might turn out to be great alternatives.

"Hey, if Activision liked it, then they should have put a ring on it," Double Fine President Tim Schafer said. "Oh great, now Beyonce is going to sue me too."
Very interested in this one. Great to see a code for it.
Perhaps you should add a note that the beta seams to be full since the beta-app page no longer are available?
