## What is Traffic Flow?

Traffic Flow is a clean, hypnotic idle game about one thing: moving people into
seats.

Passengers arrive as a glowing queue. They check in at the gate, walk the path,
step through the door and take a seat. Every seat that fills pays you. Fill the
whole vehicle and it departs, then the next one rolls in and the queue starts
again.

YOUR JOB IS THE BOTTLENECK

You never drive anything. You find whatever is slowing the line down and you fix
it. Three upgrade tracks, thirty levels each:

GATE. Faster check in, instant check in, and higher check in income.
TRANSIT. Faster walking, faster boarding, and income at the door.
SEATING. Faster seating, instant seating, and higher income per seat.

Push one track and the queue backs up somewhere else. Balancing all three is the
whole game.

FROM ONE SMALL PLANE TO A GLOBAL NETWORK

You start with a short hop out of Dublin and a plane with a few dozen seats.
Earn enough and you move up to a wide body jet where premium rows pay several
times what economy does, then to entirely new kinds of transit:

Planes. Long routes, big cabins, premium seating up front.
Buses. Short hops that turn over fast.
Trains. Multiple cars filling at the same time.
Ships. Huge twin aisle decks and the longest passenger queues in the game.

Each vehicle type is opened by a one time certificate from the research screen,
so every unlock is a real step change rather than another percentage.

ROUTES AND CITIES

The player hub is a route map for each vehicle type. Pick a city, see its seat
count and its income ceiling, and switch your run to it. Dublin, Singapore,
Cambridge, Brussels, Bilbao and more, each with a different mix of economy and
premium seats.

NUMBERS THAT ACTUALLY GO UP

Your first plane earns a few hundred a minute. Late game ships earn billions a
minute. The jump from hundreds to billions is the point, and you can watch every
step of it happen on one screen.

BUILT TO BE CALM

No timers pressuring you, no lives, no fail state. Pure neon on black, a readable
grid of seats, and a queue you can watch for as long as you like. Play with sound
off. Play one handed. Put it down mid boarding and pick it up later.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-09-12*

Good game, good concept. I have just managed to complete the game within 45 minutes though. I think you may need to implement something to stop people doing what I have just done haha. 
I did enjoy it though

### 3/5 — Fun but…

*2026-09-12*

I love aviation, it’s fun to buildup my “business “, but $15 to remove ads?? I don’t think so… i usually just play a few rounds then close it down. Play a few times a week. Occasionally I’ll watch an ad to boost my income.

### 2/5 — Good idea but super unpolished

*2026-09-11*

The game seems pretty fun but theres lots of gaping holes. First the ad rewards dont work which was annoying cuz the ads are 60 seconds. The coding of the individual people are also really bad and frustrating to watch. And lastly the game starts extremely extremely slow. Normally these games start fast so you can get a taste of the vibe. Ive spent like 4 hours on this game and literally nothing new has happened.

### 1/5 — Sound makes the game spin

*2026-09-10*

Quite a boring game. It should have sounds as the settings has sliders for it, but nothing works. The upgrades are also quite expensive for what they do. For instance spending $222 to make profit go from $1.04 to $1.08
Nobody would expect such a worthless upgrade, and everything is either overpriced or useless.

### 1/5 — Misleading options

*2026-09-09*

What’s the point of offering extra cash in return for watching and ad if you don’t even receive the offered amount.
