Lovely town-building toy Townscaper is out in Early Access – Oskar Stålberg expects to launch the full version in about four months

Here's a presentation Oskar did on procedural generation that's pretty interesting: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0bcZb-SsnrA

I've been following Oskar's twitter for a while now, and he's been posting development updates as he works on this game. Quite a lot of thought went into this! I'm glad to be able to finally play it and have the gameplay feel just as satisfying as it looks.

I bought Townscaper over the weekend and had a nice, relaxing time playing around with it.

It's very much a toy more than a game, as long as you go into it with that mindset you should enjoy it.

That being said, I feel it could use something else, though I don't know what that something would be.
