I've been drawing a few of these whimsical fantasy-ish contraption type things lately. They're a fun change from mandalas. Hope to turn the idea into a game of some-sort eventually. :)

Some progress shots of the first 'contraption' I drew. Was trying to come up with a style I felt comfortable drawing that I could apply to world-building doodles - it started off as a random collection of mushroom houses & plants until I decided to turn them into the airship-type-thing you see in the last picture ^.^

@WelshPixie great stuff! I can see this contraption becoming much, much bigger, a universe of its own...

@zwollywood I see it as being a part of some flotilla - I've drawn four (I think?) so far, all around this scope, all slightly different, and like thinking of them trundling along the forest floor in a little flotilla parade :D

@WelshPixie great! You could try to find a writer to work together with and try to make this into a book, maybe?

@zwollywood I'm a writer too. :D But I'm planning on making it into a casual Machinarium-type videogame with @warpgate9 , who is, conveniently, a coder \o/

@WelshPixie @warpgate9 I'm reading a lot of children's books lately (to my daughters), hence the suggestion ;-) But a game would be awesome as well.

@zwollywood @warpgate9 Ah! The game will def. be child-friendly too ^.^

@WelshPixie @warpgate9 Well, if you need any betatesters, I've got two of them right here at home ;-)

@zwollywood @WelshPixie Have you tried them on Botanicula and Pan Pan?
Show threadZwollywoodApr 27, 2017
@warpgate9 @WelshPixie No, so far I've just been playing educative games with them that worked in a browser. But Botanicula in particular looks really interesting for them. (Age 4 and 6)

@zwollywood @WelshPixie Neither game is voiced, so suited to any age. Puzzles are mechanical, and well suited to solving in a group.

@warpgate9 Thanks for pointing me to these games!

@WelshPixie beautiful!! It makes me think of Machinarium, so I know I'd love whatever game you'd come up with in this style :3
Show threadDelApr 26, 2017
@eurasierboy We're thinking something very Machinarium like, slow-paced casual thing with puzzles n' stuff :)

@WelshPixie love it! 💕

@WelshPixie they remind me of Daniel Mroz's illustrations for Lem's Cyberiad
