The Oculus Quest 2 is about to get a fabulous new game
The port will directly translate Townscaper to the VR systems. No more mouse clicking or screen tapping, you’ll be stretching out toy-like buildings, extending roads, and painting cities using your hands.Not so much a game as it is a creative sandbox, Townscaper lets you construct quaint city dioramas. Every building you place will automatically merge and adapt with those around it, as stairs, courtyards, and roads organically spring up in reaction to the architectural developments of your city.
It’s all very placid. With no objectives to complete, citizen requests to fulfill, or traffic to manage, Townscaper is a city builder in the most literal sense. It’s fairly intuitive, too. You can whip up a small floating hamlet in a matter of seconds or spend hours poring over a flying metropolis, carefully tinkering every steeple and alleyway to make it just so.
Developer Oskar Stålberg teased the port back in March this year, sharing a clip of an early VR build on. In the accompanying thread, Stålberg outlined some of the difficulties he was facing in bringing the strategy game to VR systems while making it feel tactile and instinctive. Looking at basic VR design. Current idea is to use a point on a stick for interaction so that you can build in the air. Those points also serve as grabbig points for grab-navigation.
