Townscaper’s Rendering Style in WebGL
You know what's mindblowing to me?<p>I remember seeing the creator of the source material here posting tech demos experimenting with this technique <i>years ago</i>.<p>Like some googling shows it was probably a demo from <i>at least</i> 6 years ago!<p>But the style was so distinct that within moments of reading the title, it clicked that it was going be that tech demo I had seen, and that the tech demo had become a game called "Townscaper"<p>It brought back a lot of memories, and it's amazing to see that he turned it into what looks like a very successful game years later.<p>It's also a testament to how unique it was, I could not think of a single "town related" rendering I had seen that was worth an entire article replicating besides his after half a decade.<p>I never have time for games anymore, but I'm buying a copy just as a kind of memento. It's crazy how much has changed since those days.
