Some floating islands have more methods to collect water than others, or they are positioned at different elevations (which influence humidity and air quality), ultimately influencing geography and culture.

How does water source work?

Option 1: There are geographical features similar to reservoirs or lakes that float. Most water can be extracted from healthy fruits and plants. Rainfall is more common.

Option 2: Water falls off the side of the islands, but as it gets closer to the center of the planet, it evaporates into the air again but rises into the other hemisphere. Humidity is high closer to the center of the planet.

Option 3: Combination of both Option 1 and Option 2

Option 4: Water is scarce in some communities and only found thru rainfall.

Long time no see. One word for yall: college! 💀💀💀

Anyway.

3 large islands, 1 medium size, 15 or 20 small islands. You guys tied again, so let's say 15 small islands, and 5 even smaller islands. 🫣😂

Finally learned how to do character turnaround in my character design class, so we'll be starting on character design sometime. I'm thinking I'll put a few iterations down, then you guys can choose which you like best for each of the main characters and antagonists. Then we can go forward with final adjustments.

I also want to start designing the environment as well... but I need to learn environmental design / how to draw outside and architecture hahaha

Haven't forgot about the tumblr community either. That's going to be set up hopefully right before I post the first chara design poll. I also need to put everything on this account into a Google docs or something to keep better track.

Based on the characters we have and the way the story is set up, I want to tell a heartfelt story about the bond between creator and creation, or perhaps the development of two best friends. Specifically we have Tailan and her robot, and how they go on adventure. The psychological aspect is primarily in world building and environmental setting (similar to "Children of the Whales" 12ep anime, where psychological aspects were part of how the navigated and operated within their world.)

While the relationship development between Tailan and her friend could be the focus, I think the story could also have a tinge of regret or dark notes to supplement mystery genre and psychological as well (but ofc it would still retain comedy in certain places).

I like shows like "ArtisWitch" mini series, "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" (1st season only), "Fairy Ranmaru" (Disliked the romance/ecchi/yaoi jumpscare though), "Children of the Whales", "Irodzuku Sekai My World In Color" for chara dev, its an obscure anime, "Gargantia on the verduous planet" for environmental dev, and lots of Studio Ghibli for architectural design.

The solar punk genre is very nice as well. I feel this fits perfectly with the idea. You guys are cooking straight 🔥🔥 rn honestly.

Based on the aesthetic we have going on so far, that's what I'm thinking about 🤔

Feel free to send your thoughts in comment, tags, asks, etc. 🙂

Small oops

Was looking back thru the posts and realized you guys wanted to vote on world events (things that happen to the characters), not necessarily what characters do.

For example, a rainstorm would be a world event. And then how the characters react to that would be what the characters do.

Whoops! Will adjust that for future votes

Tailan and her robot companion temporarily stay at a farm on the outskirts of the city. At this farm, mysterious things happen.

Is there any differences in aging between race types in our project?
