I just came across this game and thought I'd share since I was caught off guard. It looks pretty good and is pretty far along. The creator plans to have it done this year. It was already on the wish list, so if you like the looks of it then give it a vote.

Wishlist: Banished

Does the wishlist matter for indie games now that they can submit on their own?

Looks very interesting. I might check this out when it eventually ships.
I thought I remembered reading about this here earlier. Apparently it was back in March.

But, yes, I agree with oldschool, it does look interesting. And thank you for bringing it to attention again.
Pretty funny name for a city building game. But I like what I saw though, so vote given. Also since this is one man work and the game looks complicated I hope he doesn't mess up much.
Looks like a very cool game. Looks fun how it's set in the wilderness and you actually have to harvest your wood building and do farming to survive. I've never heard of the developer but I'll definitely wishlist this game.
Looking foward to it since a time... Looks very promising. A city builder with no combat worries.
Wow, I didn't know about this one. Voted!
Thanks for reminding me the title of this little wonder, i was struggling to remember it just two days ago. ;)
Seems interesting. Maybe I'll try this one day.

It could matter if GOG is on the fence about the game. I thought there was one game that was released here, after being rejected, because of the wishlist.

Reading the developer's diary, I'd say he shares the exact same concerns. But the game does look appealing.
I have been eyeing Banished since it appeared on RPS (I think). I have been craving a city builder without combat parts and this looks like one hella tasty canapé.

Thanks for puting up the wishlist's entry. Voted.

I believe it was The Cat Lady. It hadn't gathered many votes but there have been many mentions and discussions about it. I'd say it's still important to cast a vote for a game people are interested in buying. It raises its chances because it reflects a certain interest of GOG userbase.

It does look like it has a lot of potential. It looks pretty far a long as far as being playable, hoping the bugs mentioned in the Devlog can be straightened out.
