Show HN: Skyline Co-op is like SimTower, but built around democratic socialism
What this is — SimTower was a game about being a landlord: build floors, charge rent, watch the money come in. This is the same building run on democratic socialism instead — the people who live and work here own it together and decide what happens to it. You are the steward the residents elected, and you hold the treasury in trust.
