Visual upgrades in Smoldering city
- Open
 |

For players like me it would be 400% more satisfying to buy upgrades in Smoldering city if:
* Every time you upgrade some building it becomes bigger/prettier/etc
* The upgrade is shown after you close the upgrade menu
* The actual art for building does not look like it was photoshopped into the picture. The starting art is so beautiful it was sad to see that the buildings I add actually make it look worse
It should be relatively cheap to do and would make the city look so much better.

When I upgrade a building in Heroes of Might an Magic (3), I got a bigger Version of the building. The magic academy gets taller and gets a new floor. Something like this for bought upgrades in the city would be nice. Also an animation, how the new building is placed would add more to the atmosphere.

Would be nice to see some visual progression in the smoldering city beyond unlocking all the buildings. The city is supposed to be the thing I spend all game working on improving yet we get 0 visual feedback after the first couple of in game hours. Don't need this to be a per upgrade thing, but at minimum I would expect a change after finishing each track on the upgrade tree. Preferable 2-3 times per track.
Buildings with the exception of a citadel and houses beneath it stand out. They look like stickers slapped on top of a painting. Smoking chimneys look unnatural.

TLDR: Your upgrades at the Citadel should have a visual impact on the Citadel image. As you progress newer and bigger buildings appear on the image.
Unnecessary...yes
Cool? also yes

I would really love it if the smoldering city grew as you upgrade the different buildings, not just when you first buy them. Maybe the buildings themselves could gain additional things (i.e. towers, balconies, additional floors etc.) and maybe it could grow to look more and more like an actual city (i.e. by adding little houses around the valley to show that people moved there). Just a thought, but I always loved stuff like this in games like Heroes of Might ( Magic.

Merged with: Citadel upgrades change building appearance
As you spend resources to upgrade buildings at the citadel, their appearance should change as well. It is nice to see them first appear, but upgrading has no affect on them. It would be cool to see them progress from a crappy little building to a grand area that reflects the resources you’ve put into them.
The art on those buildings is very nice but yes I hope it gets another pass to unify the building art with the backgrounds. The buildings on the right fit nicely into the background but the tower and the building on the left look like stickers on top of the background

The Citadel Upgrade Buildings remind me of one of my favorite old-school games, Heroes of Might and Magic II. It would be even better if their art changed with each level upgrade.

The upgrades are really cool and are separated into different buildings, it'd be cooler if you could see the upgrades of the city getting more and more advanced. These could be banners, bigger buildings, and other cosmetic things.

It would also be nice to see a change in the city art on the world map.
