01 / Hex tiles / Miniature town building
拼个小镇 · TIDEHAVEN
Build a town tile by tile, connecting roads, rivers and places to live.


The idea
Inspired by the tile placement of Dorfromantik and Carcassonne, this experiment brings miniature town building to a portrait screen. Rotate and place hexagonal tiles to connect settlements, woods and water, then extend roads, railways and rivers.
The practice
Exploring how simple placement rules can support small, lasting goals, with repeated work on touch controls, transport connections, resident feedback and visual clarity.
A record of this stage of development. Transport connections and resident mechanics have continued to evolve.
