Project Ideas – Bang, Drip Drip

The two ideas I had sprang from a common thread of following the paths of molecules/atoms.  Bang is about the first atom to escape into space after the Big Bang.  Drip Drip follows a water droplet from a leaky faucet all the way through many uses of water and its power on our planet.

Bang

Emptiness, nothing and everything at once.  You decide to break the silence.  It all began…with you.

Bang

BANG – Accelerating as fast as possible, the brink of light, time stops around you as your journey begins.

Alone                                    Collision Course

ALONE – The edge, surrounding particles speed farther and farther away.  You can see it now all set in motion.  You won’t be part of it.  Their brilliant light fades to a dim and then darkness.  Can you find something new…you wont see any of them again.

COLLISION COURSE – Fusion, together with a counter part.  Mass times two and growing exponentially.  Transforming from gas to solid.  Growing to a new energy state.

Internal                        External

The idea I am exploring here is the possible journey of the very first atom out of the big bang.  Does your atom fly into nothingness or can you grow into a devouring black hole, resetting the events that you began.  There is always the option to stay small.  Maybe initiate life on a new planet or spend your eons radiating as a giant red dwarf.  Choose your path.  Combine with your surroundings.  Slow down or keep your energy up.

 

Drip Drip

The sink is leaking again.  Drip drip.  Where do you fall?

Down the Drain                        Onto the Floor

DOWN THE DRAIN Thru the pipe works and out the house.  You are swept away into the filthy sewer system churning.  The stream diverts.

I smell salt                        I smell chlorine

ONTO THE FLOOR – You splash there resting for hours.  Slowly you loose weight and eventually drift upwards and out the window.  The suns warm rays pulling you higher.

Into the Stratosphere                        Caught in the breeze

The life of a water molecule.  Think about it, water does not have one life, it is versatile.  Liquid form, gassy clouds, frozen polar caps.  Or it can be filthy, fresh or salty.  Water can be destructive, corrosive and erosive.  While also nourishing and beneficial.  Water is a powerful element that could potentially have many narrative elements if applied to a game structure.
