Let’s make a game in World Builder! Cover Sketching – Part 43
Working on the cover art for my game—today I'll work out shadows and start inking it? Originally streamed May 31, 2024.
In 1984, William C. Appleton created one of the first point-and-click adventure games ever made, Enchanted Scepters, for the original Macintosh. To help build it, he created World Builder, a multimedia authoring tool, which was later published by Silicon Beach Software in 1986. It allowed anyone with a Mac to create adventure games with simple RPG elements. I experimented with it when I was younger, and I wanted to share this piece of gaming history with more people. I had intended to make something small, but I had so much fun working on it that I spent over a year creating my game, Transfer Point.
This part of the series is focused on painting the game's box cover. I wanted to create something that looked appropriate for a game made in the 80s, so I drew an illustration by hand and learned how to paint it with acrylics. My primary inspiration was the original Enchanted Scepters box art, painted by Joe Ferrara.
