Building A Giant Floating Kingdom - The Ultimate Castle Builder - Townscaper

Today I'm taking a look at Townscaper. Build quaint island towns with curvy streets. Build small hamlets, soaring cathedrals, canal networks, or sky cities on stilts. Block by block. No goal. No real gameplay. Just plenty of building and plenty of beauty. That's it.
Townscaper is an experimental passion project. More of a toy than a game. Pick colors from the palette, plop down colored blocks of house on the irregular grid, and watch Townscaper's underlying algorithm automatically turn those blocks into cute little houses, arches, stairways, bridges and lush backyards, depending on their configuration.

Drae: This will be the courtyard. Me: Are you making a prison or a castle? Drae: I blame the game if it doesn't look like a castle.

[@gdlifesteal5824]

Hahahahahahaha

[@EvelynnWinters2000]

Yeah, it just looks like a town with a massive prison

[@olenhol2przez4]

Ive seen dozens of castles... some older ones look like that.

[@sayexavier4457]

@@olenhol2przez4 Many old castles have been turned into prisons.

I didnt realize it looked like a prison ahaha

This game is great and im happy your'e bringing attention to it

When this comes out, there are going to be some people who make some INSANE designs lol.

Well the algorithm will make some interesting things lol

This is basically 16 minutes of a grow ass man just having as much fun as he can have using his imagination. I guess we all have a inner child in us

[@Therealjdrizkill]

If you like that; check out Angory Tom. He use to make stuff like this all the time; he’s super chillaxed too!

[@darkkiller5861]

This games amazing, please do more of it. But yes it should have a "building lock" for building specific houses like Churches. And it really needs some npc's wich would just ADD so much to the game by bringing life to it.

[@mowermen1762]

I think it should have a copy and paste

[@thanglalsangguite6205]

The NPC idea is awesome but it would be hard to develop. Especially the pathfinding, but the building idea is good though.

Drae: building a castle Prisoner of Alcatraz: sees the outline of the castle "those where the dark times"

[@what_is_thisdude1893]

Man play more of this game please. So subtle yet so imaginative. Really satisfying to watch and you always make it humorous. Plus you could try a park? You could also just make it a bunch of island of Doctor Sues housing

The goal was to entertain us and you carried out your purpose in a tremendously eloquent beautiful way.

This housing perfectly represents LA housing in a nutshell

I was gonna say New York instead, but I see it.

Seems more like a Greek island simulator.

Alternative title: Drae creates the hierarchy

[@mrchackerify]

Wow, this is so insanly pretty... It should act as a tech demo imho, imagine a city builder buildt around this... Thanks Drae!

[@pl0x278]

The dev should definitely add a camera mode that lets us walk through the town we made,

[@olenhol2przez4]

Also, Dae, your music additions are top notch... They bring emotions of game they come from, bringing back memories, sneakly enhancing game you play :p

[@psychoxkillgaming5408]

i love drae cause he is supporting indie game developers

[@sammythefox1057]

[@cole2526]

The only way to make this better would be to have little people wandering around the structures

[@fleestack8819]

Very satisfying to watch

[@oli3645]

You could try to build your version of the city of Carcassonne. It is a huge medieval city in France.

[@xXjvibbXx5]

This is such a unique builder I love it! It would be cool if you could walk through your town in first person to check out what you build! Just an idea for the developer

[@SylviaRustyFae]

Bonus pts if the walking thing also lets you swap to noclip mode to fly around a bit thru your city

[@PrinceJance]

I love this! It'd be cool to see progress every so often even if it's not a popular video series
