Town 9 - Radiating Paths in a Garden

If I recall correctly, if four or more paths meet in a garden then the game will place a large garden ornament, a sphere on a pedestal, at the intersection. In this first view the game hasn't added any props or windows to the buildings. De…

Town 8 - Expanded Version of The Original Town

Somewhere at the bottom of this mess one can spot the original game default town.... I suspect the noodle-like mess above was added after the town and the bottom floater were constructed. The town at the bottom surprising doesn't have any …

Town 7 - Plenty of Gardens

This one features a large covered over floating town with a town underneath that has been built up to the maximum size. Looking up from sea level. An up tight look at one of the towers with a pulley and hook. The red and yellow buildings i…

Town 6 - Adding to a Floater

First off, here is the town as I had left it in my archives.... I've turned on the grid but it isn't aligned visually with the town floating above it. I added a tracing of the outside perimeter of the floating town on the grid. I then adde…

Town 5 - Floating Town Sandwich

Today's entry features a sandwich like town opened up to reveal three floating structures. Had a bit of fun topping off the top layer with a castle-like structure.... A look at what's underneath. Pathways in the garden. Plenty of arches do…

Town 4 - Not Much Shakin' Going On

This town simply has had a colour change applied to parts of it.... One odd ball situation I encountered withing the game; towns which I deleted would reappear when I restarted the game after shutting down. I tracked down the folder where …

Town 3 - Sort of Like a Coliseum

The following town has the appearance of single grand structure; plenty of arches, a ceiling uncluttered by black beams, and a lattice style covering that lets in light. A view of the central area and a few feathered visitors.... A viewpoi…

Town 2 - Starting on Floating Towns

The previous two entries sport rings of floating towns but if my memory serves me well they probably weren't the first successful attempts I took at making such structures. In all likelihood, this or the following entry were the first ones…

Town 1 - A Subtle Difference

It took a few good looks to spot the difference between this one and the previous one. Having spotted the difference I think there is a possibility this town was built before the one posted yesterday; I probably corrected the colour differ…

Town 0

...Being a series on Townscaper projects I've undertaken over the years... ** Town 0 ** The game starts you off with a small town consisting of two buildings; one red and one yellow. It's wedge shaped and features a staircase down to water…
