I had an idea where there could be a two player game where one person plays a Mini Metro playthrough while the other person plays Mini Motorways but they both play the same map simultaneously. Both players need to be on their toes as they will need to strategize on what the best way to place track and road as each store and station pop up in succession. I feel like this could get too complicated and hectic but I feel like it could be fun for the strategists out there.

they may go fairly unnoticed but the zoom edits are absolutely crucial to the video's quality. thank you so much, editors.

I wonder if they’ll add overpasses now that trains are a thing. Removing level crossings helps both the roads and trains go faster, so it would be interesting

an underrated aspect of what makes this game so anxiety inducing to watch is the slow constant zoomout

The trains are mechanically different because instead of slowly accumulating pins, the trains infrequently drop a bunch of pins at once

I didn't see it mentionned in the comments: the "double business" is actually a train station (makes sense that the pins appear when the train passes)

Obligatory "I like trains" comment

My main strat for mini-motorways has always been a main road that everyone connects to. It works just fine as long as you know how to manage and you dont constantly have to think “oh i have to keep the different colors separated”

Crossing Mini Metro over to Mini Motorways is so obvious that I am shocked that they didn't do it earlier. Definitely gonna pick this back up after a long hiatus!

so grateful im able to watch tyler run a train on his city's residents

Learning about the segregation stuff absolutely ruined this game for me, oddly enough. I was in it for the traffic management, and realizing that the game incentivizes keeping your network as disconnected as possible just killed my interest in an instant, because it turns it into a different kind of puzzle than the one I wanted to solve. There's a very similar game that gets a lot closer to what I want called "All Quiet Roads", where buildings of a certain type spawn traffic headed for every other building type, but some types are more common than others. So your residential districts have different traffic requirements than the single airport servicing the whole city. In that way it feels a lot like a cross between Mini Motorways and Mini Metro. It's not nearly as pretty, but the subtle changes to the mechanics really improve things for me.

Now imagine a 2 player co op version where one player is playing motor ways and the other is playing metro and they have to do their best to not screw each other on like a 2-3x size map

I can't help but wonder if some traffic lights off the motorway exits would've helped your blue businesses toward the end there. Those areas were the main areas of slowdown, and maybe more efficient traffic would've saved you.

This is the best edited Mini Motorways video I have ever seen in my life. Give that guy a raise. -Definitely not the editors alt account

18:07 "Another motorway is a lifesaver" -every american city planner, ever

Finally, mini motorways is based! We can have public transportation.

Could have used your new roundabout at the center blue to alleviate all the congestion of multiple roads.

I feel like the blue got stuck at the exit of motorways. When they merge, they go 1 for 1 which is way suboptimal. Traffic lights should help there

Mini motorways + Mini Metro. Love it!

So happy you came back to mini motorways, love watching you play this game

I forgot the satisfaction of seeing Tyler optimize roadways. Like putting the final piece of the puzzle in. Everything just fits… until it doesn’t.

I don't know how I haven't seen this till now, but this was one of my favorite series to watch back in the day!

9:28 This is why I cover the places where I do not want stuff to spawn with dummy roads

you do a really good job of reintroducing us back to the game w/o making it mundane / boring for regulars -- even ur editor highlighted when a business updates to a circle via a smol zoom in as u were talking about it. really appreciated but also super smart 👍

15:37 I love how in the top right there was a blue car that went into a pink cars house.

the "tom cruise in a mission impossible film" bit on the edit is so fire lmao

Hey Tyler, I'm visiting my grandparents, and I'm finally getting these videos at midnight!

I love watching late night train videos

I feel like just connecting more houses to a building isnt enough, you also need to make sure the traffic flow is able to come in and out in a single direction. At the end, the blues seemed congested just trying to enter the parking lot with cars coming in on both sides, and coming out turning on both sides, which causes pauses every time

Not gonna lie, seeing you with over 100 roads and not using them to business block made my head throb.

I think you should explore using stoplights when you have 2 motorways. It would solve so much of the congestion!

Always like watching this game! Thanks

4:51 "Even if it's the same color, sometimes you wanna still segregate It." I think that's called Segregation+, Deconstructional Revolution™

I can't stop playing Mini Motorways. So grateful for the update!

Ya think blue was panicking because the train holds up the traffic longer at the edge, when changing direction?

still baffles me that people don't see the value of traffic lights. You have 2 segregated lines where the most efficient path makes an X shape, that's what traffic lights are for

The trains(other than slowing cars down) deliver stuff to the stations

At 15:45 a blue car gets lost and drives into a pink house before turning around due to Tyler getting rid of roads.

It’s always so satisfying to watch you play this 🥰

2:22 nice road number

I wonder if they’ll make it so that we can make train lines in the future

I love watching this game. Delightfully unhinged

You know it's been a while when Tyler's forgotten about surge demand :)

I wanna see you do a challenge run where every house must meet up on the same road FIRST, then that one main road goes to every business. You can play it on an easy map because it's an intentionally difficult challenge.

great video!

The crossover of the century mini motorways and mini metro

Mini Motorways: Exists Dinosaur Polo Club: You know, I think I miss playing with trains, add them back in.

mini motorways convergently evolving into mini metro

3:23 Has to be the funniest thing ive seen all week

2:10 We all know the real reason you took that bridge was to get to 69 roads

I'm not sure who your editor is, but the segregation cut had me in stitches

dang mini metro has been out for 10 years, already? wow. I remember playing the free version as a kid.

This is how I spend my hour on my phone before going to bed. Idk what I’d do without it

2 minutes in and he's already thinking of forcing a car to stop on a train track to see what happens

Great game update! Thanks Devs!

I call these long train thingys “GO Train”

Truly, a *public* *transportation* moment

1:08 The fact that Tyler is his nickname

Most ambitious crossover event in history

What a interesting update

Tyler revitalizing my interest for this game once again

I somehow only noticed that the train refills the special double business 17 minutes in

Wow, what my luck. After nearly 2 years of not playing, I decided to literally redownload it today. And of today of all days they released a big update

Wow I can’t believe they added mini metro to mini motorways what an incredible updat

Mini Motorways always getting better!

Omg I love this concfept😊

Can't believe they added mini metro

either my computer is wrong or you posted this at 1 am

This is great mini metro X mini motorways crossover

"I literally just watched the train drop off pins but I have no idea what it does"

It's not a skyscraper, its a imax cinema!

I wasn't able to decide on which one to buy, mini metro or mini motorway. With this incredible update I don't have to choose anymore

"[...]" -Aliens "Tyler" Rocks Can't believe he said that

Next, we need boats and draw bridges!

Oh Tyler, they added an artifact named after you in peglin

Didn't think I'd see this game again.

The new end screen looks great. Any plans to update the channel icon aswell?

Next thing you know they’ll add airplanes

They blended mini metro and mini motorways. genius.

the trains are so difficult man they keep getting in the way

I hope in future they let you use the trains as a method of transit for the people.

Next thing is going to be cars in mini-metro.

Tell you the truth, I thought this game was already about trains, but now that I think about it, it makes sense.

HELL YEAH

I like trains I usually take them when I can

Maybe traffic lights at those locations where 2 motorways feed into the same business would have helped.

oh my gawd mini metro got added to mini motorways

Yess wereback to this gme

waiting for the "walkable neighborhood" update

Nice

Scratches the same part of my brain as Cant Live Without Electricity

Mini motorways and mini metro are made by the same people, so that wasn’t super surprising

The train acually placed down some markers whet it arrived

waiting for them to ad buses and trams and mixed used development

Bro just combined mini motorways and mini metro.

You kinda forgot to use all the things you picked to solve intersection jams

YES YES YES!

nice vid
