Ideas Reference
General look
- Has to be simple, hundreds of frames of different plants in stages of growth/decay needed.
- Has to work with an isometric view (but it's all flat planes overlayed with transparency)
- Not too hippy, need to move away from games like http://apps.facebook.com/treetopia
- Perhaps more monochromatic/schematic is a good approach
Player character
Thinking of a mandrake, but is the first thought.
Perhaps all characters should be plants?
Companion character
Quite taken with the worms idea - who would know more about permaculture than worms? It's possible a “wise old” character or hive mind would work well too.
I really like the style of this:
