Rongyu's "Cities Skylines" Gallery

Story with Cities: Skylines

7 years ago, I registered my first Steam account and tried to find something for fun. Then, I spotted this city building game. Although I spent 3 months of pocket money in buying the game and a few DLCs, I fell in love with it.



While spending the first few hundreds of hours discovering the gameplay and the intricacies of modding with Steam Workshop, I stroke a balance between being efficient and being visually appealing on my city works. After the 1,000th hour spent on the game, I started to collaborate with other players in Steam Workshop assets contributions and city works in studios.

Road to Urban Technology

When working on the cities, I also developed an instinct of observing the urban textures that I experience every day. This developed my sensation to how technology works to solve urban challenges.



As a result, I selected Urban Tech at Michigan among many undergrad urban planning programs because it features the foster of ideologies across disciplinaries, which suits the need of nowaday's job market towards the future of our urban environments.
