Hausbau
A downloadable game
Hausbau is a tiny puzzle game for the playdate.
The concept is simple: Build modernist cityscapes by place random tiles while listening to jazzy tunes.
This game was inspired by a visit at the Bauhaus-Museum in Weimar.

Me and my wife have dumped a surprising amount of time into this in the last couple days. It is so meditative and delightful.
Are you done developing it? A few more features and I feel like you have one of the best things on the Playdate. I would love an undo or a mode where you could dump a tile you didn't like. Maybe like in Tetris where you can store a piece or two for later?
It would also be fun to have a mode where, when you overlap, the overlapped bit of the new tile doesn't place or gets placed behind the previous tile. It would make it so you could combine tiles in new and interesting ways.
That said, keep the base mode just the way it is. It's perfect. Love the game!
Thank you so much for your feedback (and for giving me some ideas!). I’m definitely not done with the game and have some new ideas in mind. I just need to find the time to work on them. But comments like this really help boost my motivation :D
Really glad you enjoy the game!
I would love a way to undo moves. Otherwise this is a really cool relaxing little creative game.
Thank you for playing! I definitely see the potential for an undo functionality in the future.
great game, though I did spot that if you use the pause menu options on the main menu, the game crashes. that said, it's a very niche complaint that's easily avoided
Thank you so much for playing and letting me know about the menu issue! Not sure how this got past me, but I fixed it and uploaded the new version (v1.0.1).
