The Poll

[MiNTO56]

Hey guys

Was looking at "The Style" thread and came up with this list of 5 options to vote for:


Victorian
Biosphere
Steam Punk
1960's The Prisoner
Lovecraft 1920's


However I think these are more themes than actual styles but give me a kick if I am wrong?

Also if I have missed one out that you guys think should get a shout out please leave a comment below.

Thanks

I always thought the themes and styles basically went hand in hand myself :P

[DKK]

yeah you should put them together. Victorian is a very different style from Dark Grimey Victorian, you should use the Posts from the thread as the summaries for the Poll.

[ZacD]

we can pick a theme and them iron out the exact style with another poll...

I like the idea of a biosphere on a post-apocalyptic earth, that is low on CO2 and high in radiation.

Future-ize it a bit to make it a little less boring.

I have my heart set on a Dark Grimey Steampunk Victorian. Go all in folks! You know you want to.

[SaferDan]

[DKK]

[SaferDan]

[telmac]

We can do steampunk victorian though. It would totally make sense...

[Shiv]

steam punk chugging along into the lead :o
come on biosphere! :x

[SaferDan]

I think Biosphere might lose! :(

[MiNTO56]

I was wanting a 1960s style thing :(

[ErichWK]

I'm with you, Mint. Steampunk has been dooooooone tooo deaaaath

[polybeast]

I'm also somewhat tired of steampunk - I'm with the Biosphere - so long as it's not too 'generic sci-fi'.

Edit: You could try an interesting twist on it - it's all too obvious to have a big industrial dome full of foliage. What about something where this is a bit flipped?

Consider global warming going too far in future, creating a fairly global tropical climate - where else to preserve remnants of an Antarctic environment save in a specialised biodome?

[DKK]

Are you guys really that tired of steampunk? I don't think I've ever seen a steampunk game. Bioshock may have been kind of steamy punk, but when I think of steampunk bioshock is not what comes to mind.

[MiNTO56]

Im not tired of steam punk... I just love the 60s :/

[mayaman]

I'm definitely not tired about steampunk! Think it's great style and something original in games... Of course a mix of some "lovecraftish" fantasy stuff with steampunk could be really cool...
Very interesting.

There have been quite a few, some of them recent. The indie and mod space seems a little obsessed with SteamPunk at the moment (although still not as much as the 'realism' or 'zombie' fetishes.

[SaferDan]

No no i love steam punk :)

I just think the biosphere could be cool :)

[MiNTO56]

Well the poll ends tonight at 12 (GMT). If you have not voted yet what are you waiting for? :p

[Eltrex06]

Victorian Disney style would be amazing or like a steam punk Victorian would be cool to

(though i accidentally voted for biosphere rather than Victorian.. way to pay attention lol)

[MiNTO56]

The poll is now closed and the winner is Steam Punk!

[polybeast]

Well, I guess that's probably me out then. Not much for me to do with Steampunk.

[havenisle]

so i guess this is closed... has it occurred to anybody that we might have more fun if we did all five?

i'm serious... five districts, each with a different theme.
