- Townscaper is a game about creating an island city with a magic building paintbrush, and it's possibly one of the most relaxing games I've ever played.

Start of the episode: And no matter what it will always just be these same birds, and that's lovely
End of the episode: I just realized more birds have appeared as the town grows. That's lovely
You say "tinker toy" i hear "map builder for tabletop rpgs"
I legitimately made one for our group almost entirely in it. With the right patterns, you can have stairs and alleys and parks and walls which is PERFECT for map creation.
that... is ingenious!
@@kendromeda42 hmmmmmmmmm
This isn't a game. This is an art project.
And I love it.
I bought this a couple weeks ago. 6 dollars well spent. 20-ish hours in just a few days.
The designer calls it a toy, not a game. It is lovely l.
"I'm not sure this belongs on the channel as it isn't a game" says the man with an Excell Livestream...
Jon made that in half an hour. I'm honestly a little afraid of how much would happen in a full livestream of this game.
I feel the creativity overcome me! It is a good pain!
Wait I saw the creator on twitter sharing gifs and talking about creating hundreds of individual pieces and checking that every possible combination had a corresponding visual but I couldn’t remember his name or what the game was called. It looks so good
Oskar Stålberg
LordHengun it’s so weird how he essentially went viral blogging about his development process. Good for him, the game deserves all the attention it’s getting. Shame there’s no mobile version, because it looks like it could be a perfect bonsai town on your phone.
@@everwhatever no mobile version *yet*
Oskar Stålberg omg are you real lol. Good luck with early access, I’ll be the first to buy it when it comes out on iOS
If Jon ever has a house built, I pity his general contractor.
“You want to do WHAT in the gazebo??”
Jon on Grand Designs, that'd be awsome and horrible
@@ZumbaMarx The less said about what Jon does in the privacy of his gazebo, the better
This game is an architect's dream and an engineer's nightmare.
That pretty much describes the game perfectly
You do not want a house that can only be accessed via ladder, especially not a straight up vertical ladder. Don't worry dear I'll carry in the groceries! Proceeds to stare at ladder, looks at groceries in hand, looks back at ladder, looks back to groceries in hands.
Jon is not limited by your puny "practicality"
R A I N B O W T O W E R CARES NAUGHT OF YOUR PRACTICALITY PRAISE THE CULT OF THE RAINBOW
That moment when you realize Jon is making less Venice and more Kowloon walled city on water.
I was wondering when Jon would feature this.
Watching it, I think it could definitely benefit from weather functions and possibly a paint tool to change colours of small features. Something really appealing about looking at that town in rain.
This would be perfect livestream material. A town made by the viewers.
Rt game's next stream idea
TL;DR for Jon's "what is a game": It's his channel and he'll put whatever he wants on it.
Jon (in Palpatine voice) " I love democracy"
Coming next week: Jon plays with fridge magnets
@@ManyATrueNerd I would watch that.
@@nachoolo as would I
@@nathanielspohn3004 oh yeah I'd love it
This needs to be a livestream. It's a perfect example of a livestream-able game.
That's a great idea, it would be very, very chilled out.
Yessssss
@@the_Book_778 yeah, I know right? It would be like nerd3's tiny town stream.
I found myself getting far more excited in Jon's plans as the video went on.
Like, weirdly emotionally invested in the building of this little town.
Oh, it's a Miazaki/Studio Ghibli town building simulator.
Cool.
MY GOD! Jon’s found townscaper! I love this game so much
I've held off on getting it but dang would like to fiddle around in it for a while, it just looks such chill fun.
It's like Game of Thrones meets Balamory
That made me chuckle. Has the BBC sold balamory abroad? I think this reference may not get the appreciation it deserves
Wouldn’t you like to know?
How? There aren't any battles, or armies or even kings.
@@BauthorFowler do you k ow what balamory is?
@@joylessdave Apparently not but I'm pretty sure Game of Thrones was about armies and battles and knights.
If there were people in the cities with crowd simulations, this game would be legit perfect
Jon proving the superiority of Red as a people, looking down upon its tertiary underlying people.
Down with the color hierarchy! All colors for all levels!!!
@@BuzzCut-uf3un Preach it ! ! Polychromatic or nothing!
Red is the clearly superior colour.
18:35 LGBTQ People after coming out
That’s too real. @Axel Erlandsson
Watching Jon play with this is as chill as watching Bob Ross paint...
As an architect these are the things I love seeing you play.
*LOVE IT*
0:57 - "There's just a bit of stone in an ocean"
I feel like there's a certain reference here...
Silly Jojo fan, Part 6 is just a myth
Petition for Jon to play more games where he can just talk to us
Love this game, so good to pick up for a little while to chill out with.
This is definitely the game that I need in life right now.
This is therapeutic to watch Jon, thank you.
I need this on a stream in the future I would happily watch 3+ hours of jon playin this
That "plop" sound is heaven itself. It's just what we need at the moment.
The best part of this game is that it works on designing the world with you. You may have a plan but the way things mix and fit together your views may greatly change. Like the pyramid idea was cool but the way it turned out at the end was fantastic
i love how just deliciously Cornish this looks
F in chat for colourblind people.
That's not how colorblindness works.
@@TigerXGame It's actually kinda how it works
oh cmon, they're only missing out on like, 2 colors if I understand red-green colorblindness correctly.
didn't know you would play this but on second thought, hell yeah this is right up your alley
Claire comes home next week after buying groceries, only to find Jon has elevated their house and you now have to climb a ladder to get in.
Great timing Jon, I just found this game at some online store and was intrigued enough to decide some research was needed and bam, you upload this. This is not the first time you've posted an interesting game right when I first discovered it for myself.
I’ve been followed this toy/tech/game for a while, it’s super impressive!
I would be perfectly fine with videos of Jon and/or Claire playing with toys, regarding that intro debate.
Videos *
@@shatteredvfx6499 C'mon dude.
I mean. Thanks, and I've fixed it, but come on. You've got better things to do
Leave Jon and Claire out of your fantasies...
@@myrddinemrys1332 Look, if I can't wish for a Jon Reviews Lego series, what's even the point anymore
Finally you have covered this game
Yay! I was hoping you'd do this! I know it's not really a game, but it's so pleasant to watch. Thank you!
I could’ve watched this all day
this feels like a Bob Ross video game.
God, if it only had little people walking around and hanging laundry…
I kept seeing this on Twitter every now and then so I am extremely excited that it's out.
Make this a series and we will watch I promise this is amazing
I hope they keep updating this game
Having little people wandering around would make it feel much more alive and I would love to walk around the village in a first person mode
watching videos like this is exactly why I started my youtube channel! Cool stuff :)
I was so secretly hoping that you could explore what you've built by walking around first person.
this game is an absolute delight
This was wonderful and chill! Thanks for this!
It looks like Llandudno during Pride Month. And in the middle of the sea.
I wanna go there.
I can see this game being used by artists to help design built up ocean world landscapes.
@James R Very true. Basically if someone wants to create a water world with buildings, then this is the game to play.
People are sharing some fantastic paintovers on Twitter where they base it off screenshots of this, it's amazing! I'm thinking about making maps for RPG towns and drawing over them as well.
I've been using it to rebuild my dnd city map in 3D. It's awesome (though the grid is a bit odd and the max size is too small, which I hope will be fixed soon)
@@CesarTheKingVA I find the grid to be weird, it's intimate until you start placing bits, then it locks to a certain size. You can scroll around until you find an area you like.
Watched this for 10 minutes, went straight to Steam and bought it. Think I've found my new favourite waste of time, it's so relaxing to play.
I could watch you stream this for days
Awesome! Love this.
Also notice the interesting conformal geometry.
This is gorgeous.
The way I would define a game is you're *extrinsically* rewarded or punished for certain specific actions performed in the game itself.
In walking sims you get more story or maybe different content, in sandbox tycoon games you get or lose money, in puzzle games you get more puzzles.
Townscaper doesn't have rewards or punishments. You don't get anything other than an *intrinsic* satisfaction of having made something, much like a toy (like LEGO).
this feels like a Ghibli-Anime-Town-Building Simulator-thingy and I love it for that!
I got the same vibe playing with the Tracks game on Xbone. Basically building with kids wooden train set in bedroom/living room and building little towns, whatever; very relaxing and eats the hours.
Imagine being the person living in a house only accessible via ladder and having to bring groceries in. I mean I'd still do it if it meant I got to live in such a perfectly whimsical town but it would be pretty inconvenient.
I’d been wondering how long I’d have to wait for Jon to play this 😅 made myself a quaint little desktop background with it 👌🏼
This would be wild with a mode to go down and walk around
I want a never-ending stream of Jon playing this.
0:21 What is a game, A miserable little collection of codes.
This would be an amazing chill stream
The pyramid OCD is one of the best things of 2020
This is weird, I just bought this game and played it for about 2 hours, finished playing, opened youtube and there's a video on it from MATN. I am spooked.
This would make a really fun vr game if you could drop into it
Congratulations John, you have created a massive rainbow slums XD
This game is fantastic and I hope the developer adds more
Sim City, Venice edition
Wish I was this confident with things I create.
Jon please god do a chill out livestream with this
So Jon, you know how you couldn't get your pyramid to work? I just got the game 20 minutes ago, and I got one to work. It might just be how the star is shaped that caused you problems
I'd love to see you and Claire play this during your next stream!
I loved this!
Even as towers go, that is a little phallic.
You can make a stripey tower, you just need to make the stripes 2 levels tall, so 2 white, 2 red, etc. Then it should give you a spire roof at the top.
FPV camera. Day/night cycle. Various backgrounds. That way you can create a town, walk around it, find a nice view, and have that view (animated with day/night and maybe birds and other small creatures) as the live background for your desktop... just saying :)
This reminds me of some of the cities in the Dragon Quest games.
If it's not in the game already I'd love to see a mode where you can explore your creations as a person in the world
My man over here building Balamory
In this video, Jon discovers Lego.
Gotta love a concrete garden.
8:02 towers just have to be two blocks above anything else on their building. If you put another block on top, that would make another tower.
OMG, I need this game... toy... thing!
I literally just found this game about 24 hours ago, and this video was released about 4 hours after i found it.
Of course Jon puts food production into townscaper.
"When you're walking down here and you see all of this..." you begin to wonder if a giant clown vomited on your town.
I would like whoever designed this game to be architects for all the new apartments (Jon can participate too)
In this episode, Jon creates Mont St. Michel.
yes its so good
This is quite nice
In this episone john creates the tower of babbel and *speaks in greek*
Yeah it was weird when I couldn’t understand him halfway through, it’s quite weird, 对不对？Mein Gott...merde!
If this game was available for my Android tablet I'd loose hours and hours to it. Oh, and Jon most definitely made a phallus building.
John created his own balamory
"I would love a house you have to climb a ladder to get into" . Wait a few years Jon until your knees start to go, you'll think that was the dumbest idea in the history of human thought. I'm only 10 years older than you and I already don't even want to live in a house that has stairs.
This is getting more and more popular, I hope it will be developed more, maybe with some proper game modes
Btw, I recently started playing Witcher 1 and also watched your series about it. I was sceptical initially, so many negative things about it, but it turned out pretty nice. I would love to see you come back to Witcher series, maybe on livestreams or something
I did felt like Bad North!
Also, next time try spreading the colours horizontally, not vertically, it gives a more organized feel and pops up the buildings better.
