Townscaper : a procedural building game

Hello there :slight_smile:

It appears that the search “Townscaper” on the forum gives no result, so I guess I’m not creating a double here :grin: . Just wanted to share this game :

What I love about it, is the work on procedural modeling. I spoke a bit in other posts about my passion for procedural modeling, and I think this game is very inspirationnal. Have a look and try different patterns. It’s very well designed, the way a roof may or may not transform into rooftop, etc, etc… Wow.

I think I want to re do it from scratch using BabylonJS. Who wants to start a common project ? :grin: Ahah

Here is something to start with : GitHub - CedricGuillemet/HexagridRelaxing: hexagonal grid relaxing
It’s a redo, after discussions with the author, of the base grid/connection.

And where is your Babylon-Based Townscaper ? What do you mean you started to code the grid and didn’t finish the game, ahah :joy: Nice !

Interesting visuals but it’s AI based :stuck_out_tongue: (Which I love as well for sure ! I’ve been working on GANs & DL for years :see_no_evil: )

But I prefer pure geometry procedural modeling :grin:

This is the idea behind such procedural models. Even the AIs work with this principle. We can talk later more about and stumble into spiritual issues…

Oooh nice, reminds of Phantom Brigade. What I find difficult is to author the individual pieces that fit together eventually. I mean coming up with this?

Maybe you could write a cool Lighting effect class (like the one seen on the video) which could use GreasedLine if you are into the procedural stuff. I have it on my list but unfortunately there are many more tasks with higher priority on it… :see_no_evil:
