  • Townscaper's developer on how its 'radically casual' design is inspiring a new wave of low-stress builders to adapt the blueprint - 18 January 2024

    Townscaper is one of those small snatches of joy I heavily associate with the Covid-19 lockdowns of 2020. The stress-free city builder was a tiny game that became a huge sensation that summer. Like other collective obsessions of that year, it inspired a trend that's only now truly coming to fruition. Although Townscaper's developer Oskar Stålberg tells me he doesn't spend time tracking gaming trends these days, he's aware of the wave of Townscaper-like projects in the works and often reshares their dev updates. He also tells me he thinks the new games in this style are getting more complex... Read more.

  • Patch notes v.1.20 - 11 July 2023

    UPDATE: July 14 Dear Townscaper community, We recently deployed an update which contained a number of optimization improvements that were developed while bringing Townscaper to additional platforms. Unfortunately, we've discovered some new issues caused by these changes and have temporarily reverted to an older version of the game. We hope to get these issues patched soon so that we can deploy the optimization improvements once more. On behalf of the team I'd like to apologize for these issues and ask for your patience as we get things sorted as soon as we can. Thank you for your continued support for Townscaper, we really appreciate it. --- Hi there, townscapers! Here is a small little update that addresses a couple of issues that some of you have had: Screenshots turn out blank Parts of older towns don't fully render, such as having missing windows or no doves on top of the buildings…

  • Townscaper Showcase - 11 February 2022

    Greetings, dear Townscapers. What a year it has been, and it’s only February! I think we all deserve a moment to rest and feast our eyes upon some showcased Townscaper builds. TWITTER 1. Busy Town by @Toucan68754325 This bustling town is masterfully sectioned with tall walls, making it especially interesting to observe from a bird's eye view. 2. Porous by @DTownscaper This perfectly portioned porous building is a delight to look at, and we’d imagine, a delight to sit in. STEAM 1. Small Boat by Ash18Kethup It’s a cosy little boat! What more is there to say? 2. Little Island by ✟Vocaloid-60✟ It’s a cosy little island! Looks like cosy is king this week. Thanks as always for your endless kindness and support of Townscaper, and please do continue sharing your towns on Twitter and Steam. See you soon!

  • Townscaper Showcase - 28 January 2022

    Nice to see you again, Townscapers! Let’s spend the last days of January looking at a few of your brilliant builds from Twitter and Steam! TWITTER 1. Networks by @ kalasangan_ This Twitter user discovered that an entire floating network can be built when you place on the right patches on the grid. This discovery unlocks so many possibilities! 2. Red & White by @latundafortnite This immaculate build looks like a perfectly formed lollipop. STEAM 1. Clover by Geerld What happens when you find a 6-leaf clover? We're hoping that it's good luck! 2. Island Citadel City by Dr. Oetker This Citadel’s clean lines make it a pleasure to look at. Thanks as always for your support and kindness, and please do continue sharing your towns on Twitter and Steam. See you next month!

  • Townscaper Showcase - 14 January 2022

    Happy new year, all! After a (hopefully) restful festive period, we think there’s no better way to kick off the year than with a Townscaper Showcase. Let’s kick our January blues by looking some of your most creative builds from the past few weeks! TWITTER 1. Invisible cities by @FLuccisano Inspired by Calvino's 1972 novel by Italian writer Italo Calvino, this dreamy build creates a town out of floating structures. 2. Buttresses by @Acanthisittidae Safe to say this town has structural support covered. STEAM 1. 25 Hour Town by sqatzo fox What's most exciting about this impressive town is that it took 25 hours to perfect! 2. Travel to Wonderland by P_DROXP This breathtaking screenshot provides a small glimpse into a colorful wonderland we'd love to visit. TIKTOK 1. Watch & Learn by @alea_ty It's delightful to watch people discover new and unique town features. 2. Statue Garden by @townsca…

  • Townscaper Showcase - 17 December 2021

    'Twas the week before Christmas, when posted on Steam, A Townscaper Showcase displaying builds supreme... Today marks our last Townscaper Showcase of 2021. Where did the time go? Thank you for your time spent supporting Townscaper both in and out of game, and for those that take the time to look at other builds and support the community; thank you. Truly. TWITTER 1. Garden of Pathways by @miniver Take in the serene sights of this town shared by miniver on Twitter and imagine the peace that would come from a stroll through one of the elaborate pathways carving out the greenery 2. Big Town’s Harbour by @Acanthisittidae With the addition of a carefully constructed harbour, Acanthisttidae diversifies an already complex, packed town. We love seeing your more realistic builds. STEAM There seems to be a shape theme on Steam this week! 1. Circle City by Sotya How many times do you think Sotya c…

  • Townscaper Showcase - 6 December 2021

    It’s December, dear Townscaper lovers, and ‘tis the season to be building. As usual, we are taking a moment to highlight some of your best builds from the past couple of weeks. Let these towns from Twitter, TikTok and Steam inspire you! TWITTER 1. Tentacles by @ScaperofTowns This tentacle-type town fashioned out of arches is a sight to behold! 2. Liminal Spaces by @ViOliveiraArt0 I get the feeling I’ve been here before... Perhaps in a nightmare? STEAM 1. Texas by Faramir’s Rangers It is, quite literally, a town the shape of Texas. Videogames are amazing. 2. Townshell by HegemonJoy This monstrous creation is seemingly structurally sound, but I don’t think I'd survive the trek up that incline. TIKTOK 1. G by @jeff._.101 Yet another exciting challenge from the community; a house in the shape of a letter G. Yet another build I’d dread climbing to the top of. 2. Haunted Mansion by @townscape…

  • Townscaper is the latest surprise addition to Xbox Game Pass - 2 December 2021

    Townscaper , a chill and very aesthetically-pleasing city-builder from Oskar Stalberg (whom you may know as the developer behind Bad North) is now available to play on Xbox Game Pass . Townscaper has long been something of a social media darling; if you mooch about games Twitter like me, you'll have seen it crop up often as other indie devs share little snippets of the towns and villages they've made. Buildings appear with a very satisfying 'pop' and the whole thing is more like a toybox experience than a traditional game. I urge you to give it a go if you've got the time, it's honestly a delight. "Build quaint island towns with curvy streets, small hamlets, soaring cathedrals, canal networks, or sky cities on stilts. Build the town your dreams, block by block," reads a little blurb for the game. "No goal. No real gameplay. Just plenty of building and plenty of beauty. That's it." Read…

  • Nominate Townscaper for the Sit Back and Relax Award! - 24 November 2021

    Some games, like Townscaper, can be simultaneously gentle and impactful. There are no high stakes, and there is nothing that needs to be done. Townscaper doesn't seek to change the world. Instead, it seeks to change a town, a town that can belong entirely to you. With Townscaper, the hours melt away, no matter when or where. After a long day, hours spent at the PC or on the couch can become hours spent unwinding, creating something uniquely beautiful. And did we mention, there are tiny, tiny birds? With the 2021 Steam Awards fast approaching, we really hope you'd consider nominating us for the Sit Back and Relax award. If you, like us, have found yourself lost, and relaxed, building your own town, we hope you can find the time to check out the Steam Awards and vote for us.
