MicroTown

MicroTown has been in Early Access since August 30, 2019 and remains actively developed by solo developer Snowy Ash Games. The game has received a steady stream of substantial updates over the years — EA Update #27 shipped on April 19, 2026, adding new livestock (goats, geese), new production chains (feathers, pillows), new buildings, and a variety of UI and visual improvements. In a detailed developer post from February 28, 2024 (EA Update #25), the developer was candid about the game's trajectory: they explicitly named three major features still required before the game is considered complete — endgame trading and resource sinks, monument expansion to world wonders, and a scenario or campaign mode. The developer noted these represent "several posts worth of details" and described them as the "primary future tasks." They also acknowledged a need to take a motivational break before returning to push toward 1.0. That break appears to have ended productively: EA Update #26 shipped in May 2025 and EA Update #27 in April 2026, demonstrating continued active development. The April 2026 update also contains forward-looking statements, such as plans to add chickens for egg production and further animal feeding mechanics. The game is clearly unfinished by the developer's own admission, with named features still on the roadmap. Anyone waiting for a complete 1.0 experience should expect further development before the game reaches that milestone.
