The docks and beginnings of Cityscape

These are the docks and it’s view on the early stages of my Cityscape world. From here you can see mainly normal buildings except for a good look at the lighthouse.

This is a test of sequential piston action. If you want two sticky pistons on top of each other to work properly you need to have the top one retract before the bottom one or else it will not be pulled down. This mechanism starts or stops a flow of water. In truth the system […]
From this angle you can see more of the fortress at the base of my tower. At the moment there are two “layers” of walls that wrap around the front side of the fortress. There is no real interior at the moment aside from the passage that leads to the base of the tower and […]
Slowly but surely my little town is growing. One by one I add more houses and various other structures. I try to keep it feeling organic the way a real life town would grow into a city. Buildings that have been added since the last one of these views are the library with the black […]
The tower is as tall as it can be. It reaches the very top of the world where it limits you from building any higher. It’s base integrates with a fortress type structure which started out as a test for a hidden door with pistons. Can you see the hidden door? No, because it’s hidden […]
If the Temple of the Sun had a preacher or equivalent than this is the view he or she would have during a service. The wooden benches would be filled with the citizens of the town after entering and washing up in the basis at the other end of the hall.
These updated views on my town provide a good overview of the current progress of this soon-to-be city. From left to right we can see the shipyard, some random houses, the Temple of the Sun, the entrance to the Doom Hole and the town square. In the distance on the right you can see the […]
The town square is built on a piece of land where, to put it lightly, I’ve done some TNT demonstrations. The doom hole is covered up now, but the building on the right is home to the entrance to the doom hole. Visitors enter at their own risk! In the background you can see the […]
Sometimes I like to put up a sign for decorative purposes. In this case I couldn’t think of anything generic so I decided to put up this sign in which apparently the owner of the house on the left wants to broadcast that he thinks his neighbor to be an a-hole. These two houses are […]
Reaching all the way to the top-most buildable block, this tower “towers” above the young Cityscape town. Except for a couple of floors and a central spiral staircase the tower is hollow on the inside, at least for the time being. The view from the top is quite spectacular.
