Tiny Skyline

Tiny Skyline is a relaxing idle city builder. You start with one little hut on a tiny stone island floating above the clouds, high over a planet. Tap to collect rent, build more, and watch your island grow, plot by plot, into a glittering skyline.

Close the game and your city keeps working: when you come back, it has been earning while you were away.

Features

• 🏙️ 20 kinds of buildings, each with its own shape and colour: huts and cottages, bakeries and cafes, workshops and factories, schools and hospitals, hotels, malls, stadiums, skyscrapers, twin towers, a Sky Needle and the Crystal Arcology at the very top.
• 📈 Every building levels up to 5, and gets taller as it does.
• 🏝️ A floating island that grows from 4×4 to 50×50 plots. Buy more land whenever you are ready.
• ♻️ Demolish and replace. Pull a building down for a partial refund and put something better in its place.
• 🌍 Drift among the clouds. Your island floats over a planet, with soft smoke drifting past and small rocks floating by. Drag to orbit around it, zoom in to see the details, or let it slowly turn by itself.
• 💤 It plays while you are away. Your city earns while the game is closed (up to 8 hours, at half speed), so there is always something to come back to.
• 🎵 Calm music and gentle sounds. Three original tracks, with separate volume controls, plus a mute button.
• 💾 Saves automatically. No account, no internet connection needed. Start over any time with Reset world.
• 🖥️ Fullscreen (F11) and a clean, simple interface.

How to play

1. Pick a building on the right, then click a free plot to build it.
2. Press Collect rent (or the space bar) to earn a little extra, especially at the start.
3. Click a building to upgrade it. Each level earns twice as much.
4. New buildings unlock as you earn more. Higher ones cost more and take longer to pay back, but there is no hurry.
5. Buy land when the island is full, and swap early buildings for better ones with the Demolish tool.

System requirements (Windows)

Good to know

• This is an early version (0.1.0). The game is playable from start to finish, but more is planned: a prestige system (restart your city for a permanent bonus), city events and more things to build. No promises on dates.
• The Windows download is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may say "unknown publisher". Choose More info → Run anyway.
• The browser version saves in your browser's storage. If you clear your site data, the city is cleared too.
• Linux and Mac versions are not available yet.
