Art RPGs

[lieutenant]

So an Art RPG is similar to a video game, but instead of using a controller as input for what the characters do, you draw your characters in various situations to earn points and upgrades. (You can of course, draw your character with any upgrade without earning it, but that's just called drawing, lol)

So I've been playing one of these (not as much recently, but enough that I built up a little stockpile of drawings.)

The little grey dog is Guilo, the brown dog is Seneca, and the pig is Boris. The blue/green one is Tlailo. Then there are a couple others, mostly other people's characters that I drew because drawing other people's characters earns points.

One of the prompts was draw your characters as dinosaurs/prehistoric creatures. I loved this one so much I did a bunch of them. Tlailo as the Cameroceras is sexxxxxy.




Interestingly the creature Guilo is holding onto the back of in the picture where they are diving down to tour the wreck of the Titanic is my friend's creature, who, as she earned upgrades, actually developed into a Dunkleosteus. Guilo in the last picture is pictured as a prehistoric creature dunkleosteus, not because of upgrades, just because of the prehistoric challenge. They're fun to draw!

In another challenge, I did the characters on vacation.

They choose to go on a trading mission. (Boris likes to trade things) He chose to trade things with other people's characters. I looked into the characters' profiles for details.



Here they are bringing a present to the site mascot, Bot.



Here they are in a ruined library collecting ancient manuscripts.



While Seneca worries about Guilo climbing the sea stones, Boris trades a hayberry for a toy robot that this other character found while cleaning pollution off the sea floor.



They explore a mall and trade a hair bead for a map to the mall's food court. Guilo as always, climbs ontop of something dangerous.



This sphinx lives in fancy tents, and would rather have a tiara than the plain blue hat. Seneca and Guilo dig for treasure (earning the possibility for the claws upgrade)



On the way out of the desert, the dogs pick up some galaxy flowers that glow with internal light, and Boris trades a fidget box for (the beautifully designed) Set's scales, with which this Egyptian inspired creature weighs the souls of the dead. (I loooooved this person's development of this character, with the white crocodile hind end and the Bast looking front end. I felt really happy with my interpretation of their drawing, too. Not really my usual style, clearly.



And finally they get home and Boris makes his last trade of the trip.
