My method for creating fictional world maps:
1) go for a walk after rain
2) take photos of drying spots on the sidewalk
3) draw over them ✨

Photo I took of the surface of a wet sidewalk that has dry spots in it and a second image that's the same photo but with the edges of the spots outlined.

As part of my art project 'Sub Orbital Machine', I have started a new account to post only the little #worldbuilding #sketches I do to keep things ticking over; and sharing some of it here. If you are interested in this evolving universe, please feel free to follow the account and repost this 🙂

Bioengineering human-wolf chimeras to their final genome layout, K84.F1, was the life's work of Dr. Salma Esfahani and two whole generations of scientists.

Incubation at scale finally began in 2279.

By that time, the average global temperature on Earth had exceeded 19°C for three consecutive years.

Over 300 years later, the Wolves of Callisto thrive! Crater Metropolis Asgard is the oldest colony in the Jupiter system, famed for its shipwrights and navigator academy.

Okay I am hearing your RESOUNDING SILENCE
so I wrote a README and I encourage you to follow Egbert's lead as a hashtag game on the mastodon, tagged with #lispmoo2jam ; in which case I will add you to the honorary jam roll and your constructions to the git, and update the current map, like I did for Egbert.

Questions solicited but tbh construct something as well here or there plz

The graphviz dot graph of the world, but now with EGBERTS addition to it. Thank you Egbert, firing on all cylinders. Egbert connected Egbert's GARDEN to screwtape's MOUNTAIN-TRAIL, attaching to the directed graph only there. Egbert's Garden is also connected to EGBERTS-HOUSE.

A graphviz dot graph (idk, ask some bell labs people) having three separate clusters: SCREWTAPES, GAME0 and GAME1 filled with various rooms, and directed edges connecting both within and between clusters. It's grayscale and a bit messy. Edge sources are speculatively labelled with compass directions, that were not enforced.

Your world's economic system is horribly broken. How is that made apparent?

#WorldBuilding #writing #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #ttrpg #dnd #GameDev

Economics: "Humans only value things monetarily."

Sociology: "Uh, | don't..."

Economics: "Humans are always rational and value is calculated by complex internal calculus."

Sociology: "Uhhh, Psy, can you help?"

Psychology: "That's not how humans..."

Economics: "ALSO MY SYSTEM WILL GROW EXPONENTIALLY FOREVER!"

Physics: *drops teacup*

My son's becoming a true master with #WorldPainter & #WorldMachine and has been creating some stunning and super detailed landscapes (not just alpines ones) for #Minecraft/Ardacraft/Conquest Reforged... Btw. He's also accepting commissions, wink, wink...
