Looks cool. Would be nice with a YouTube video about it for those of us on mobile.
Please note that this is an old demo that has since grown into a full-blown game: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1291340 (Says Windows-only, but has a working Beta for Mac)
Here's a talk by Oskar on how generating such worlds work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bcZb-SsnrA

That looks like a great creative app. I wonder how much work it would be to build realistic-looking replicas of modern cities using this - I guess it would need almost as many styles as there are buildings.
And already a subreddit where people showcase some pretty impressive creations: https://www.reddit.com/r/Townscaper/
“This community is available in the app”
Looks like Reddit is not part of the internet anymore.

He is also one of the developers of Bad North, where islands are procedurally generated, much similar with this demo.
This is a really cool project, I particularly like how well thought out the possible connections are between tiers. The only 'issue' I can see is that rooftops are often left inaccessible! Automatically adding some ladders or steps to adjacent would be a simple solution but I'm sure there are more imaginative and architecturally inclined people than me with better ideas!

Quick solution could be to just add one wooden door/trap/plank per "terrace", on the floor of it, to symbolize entrance from within
Very polished!
lovely! i recommend visiting also his beautiful tumblr: https://oskarstalberg.tumblr.com/
This is awesome. I ended up just removing random bits to make it look wrong, but somehow it always ended up looking pretty stunning. I think the shadows also add a lot to the scene.
I also made a pretty good-looking two layered structure with it: (pic https://ibb.co/vVbtG52)

I just want to say, Oskar's twitter is a goldmine: https://twitter.com/OskSta. It was fantastic to see his work on Townscaper over the past year.

Oppose the tyranny of colour as well?
Your creation reminds of the work of M. C. Escher

Like the touch where if you remove all connections to the ground, the building will float up & down
This was even more amazing to me http://oskarstalberg.com/game/planet/planet.html
There is also Atrira[0,1] project by Blender Ukraine.[2]

"You need a browser which supports WebGL to run this content. Try installing Firefox."
Oddly, I get this when attempting to load this website on Firefox (macOS)

I loaded it on Firefox on macOS without any problem. Maybe you block the use of WebGL by Firefox?
Firefox 78.01 on macOS Mojave: works fine.
I'm on 80.0a1 on macOS Big Sur
Betas on betas, so I don't think your experience is "odd" but probably to be expected.
Seeing that oepning the website on Firefox prompts a message for me to try opening the website on Friebfox, I'd say odd is a good adjecive for this experience. It won't be odd if I was opening it on Safari or if this version of Firefox was causing issues with multiple websites (so far, I only had an issue with this one and, yes, I did try other websites that use WebGL).
Found a similar thing but with a planet on his blog: http://oskarstalberg.com/game/planet/planet.html
I'm in awe of the attention to detail. This guy is a real artist, cool to see such a skilled mix of creativity, art, and software.

the YIMBY game
This is so simple and so enjoyable.
Pro tip: right-click to remove blocks.
That looks like Archmatrix.[1]
Archmatrix is a full constraint system. Stretch a wall, you get more windows, not bigger ones. Stretch a chair, get a couch.
