LEGO Town Builder

My entry for the first LEGO Ideas Microgame contest. I'd consider it a proof of concept at most, but it got featured on the Twitch stream and got an honorable mention, so I'm pretty happy with it.

I've also compiled standalone builds for Windows/Mac/Linux:

They're nearly the same as the WebGL build, I just did a few minor fixes/tweaks, added one new "special" (non-randomized) minifigure, and added (automatic) saving of your town. I wasn't able to personally test the Mac/Linux builds but they should work fine.

 

More misc details:

• Krysto did most of the minifigure textures and many of the LEGO models
• In the standalone builds, Alt + Enter can be used to enter/exit fullscreen
• The code is by far the worst I've ever written
• But it works
• I'd have liked to include more train track pieces but those were the only ones LEGO officially had in the Microgame's part library
• Seriously though the code is awful
• But it works

LEGO Creator, but in Unity. And not totally broken. I love it.

So happy I came across this!! Please continue the project, looks great!

 

So, I've been playing around with this... I love it! I am no developer, but perhaps you could edit things around so minifigures have a priority / preference to walk on paths rather than road? I was just thinking if you were to implement cars and vehicles some day, they would need the road ways.
