About The Population Must Grow
This is a very simple city builder game with the main purpose of scaling up your population. You can place build orders for your citizens to build new homes, plant food or plant new trees.The more citizens you have the faster the city can grow. For me as the developer of this game, the purpose was to try to write efficient code to see how much a PC can handle before it begins to slow down. So try out and see how many citizens your device can handle.

the game crashes, impossible to grow population to total earth quantity. Was fun until it keeps saying that wasnt responding. The game should be: The Population Must NOT Grow !!
i like much. i made a town that looks like atem bomb. i like doggies. this game goes well with domino pizza. happy 🤩
perfect way to test your pc capabilities! Of course i got every achievement.
Steam crashed while I was grinding toward China. I've put 70 hours into this game over the last several weeks and was at close to 700 million. Now it's showing one citizen even with an entire screen of millions of citizens. Wasted weeks letting my PC implode with the ever increasing demand on my CPU. No response posting about the glitch.
