Paint is my Sims

Post by Stinkywigfiddle »

I've been doing this sort of thing for years, making little Paint worlds, building them up and destroying them.
I just destroyed a whole civilazation and now they're starting over from scratch:

There are mutants and robots now.

Wow... I do that on old-connected printer paper with pencils and erasers... I thought I was alone in that... :D

I used to do something like that in an old macintosh program, some sort of photopaint or something. I'd fill in the whole document and then make the top area white and make giant underground complexes in the rest.

Do what where?

Do you mean in the paint world thing? I simply have the little pixel people build a civilization, and they become more and more andvanced. Then I'll cause a war or some natural disaster to change things around.

See, they're starting to rebuild:

This reminds me of a game I used to play with pencil and paper. I'd either build a society and then blow it up a bit at a time, or inject a poison and have them try to build away from it in time.

Daamn.. I used to do that with crayons and dot-matrix paper too.
Except our people were polka dots, and there was always a boundary at one end with signs on either side reading "Polka-Dot Land" and "Stick-Man Land".

We were eight. :D

I no longer feel special. Not sure if that's good or bad.

I'm sure I've done something like this on paper before. But MS Paint is infinitely reusable.

Me, I made dolls out of yarn and then built them houses out of cardboard, and made little pieces of furniture out of more cardboard, and musical instruments out of paper towel rolls, and blankets out of tissue, and ladders out of string...

And then my brother sat on my doll house and crushed it.

It's nice to see that throughout everthing from major disasters to the uprising of the robot rebellion, your fishing community has continued to thrive.
