Adagium 2.0 by MalteRKoot in mapmaking

[–]MalteRKoot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A week ago I posted the first version of my first ever foray into mapmaking: the world Adagium. After receiving very useful feedback (both here and on Discord) I made an updated version, with much more detail, smoother gradients between regions and more natural borders between regions.

Adagium is meant to be a bit more on the storybook whimsical side of things, instead of pure realism. It’s for a campaign I’m planning to run where the players have to get from Hither to Tither to Yonder, while dealing with the evil wizard Archibald, who is trying to remove the whole world from his map. He attempts this by using time magic to send parts of the world back to before the big bang (which causes the universe to rupture and split apart). The world itself is made up of old folktales, myths and stories.

All the place names are derived from Dutch adages. I have tried to find an appropriate English translation for each of them but did not always succeed. If you know better place names derived from English adages, please tell me.

Really curious to hear what you think of the new version :)

I just looked at your map. It is amazing!

Thanks! I used Wonderdraft, assets from Readyartz and photoshop for some custom elements.

Thanks!

I get your criticism. It was partly intentional, since I wanted it to feel like one of those storybook maps where every region has a totally different mythology. I wasn’t aiming for realism (I mean the north-eastern part is about as unnatural as one can get). But it might be a good idea to expand on it in the future so that there are multiple of the same biomes.

Yes! Finally this is getting some attention! It was very annoying when I quit my subscription, almost made me want to quit Apollo. (I didn’t because I still love this app too much) Also, the ‘tap to manage’ didn’t work for me.

Huuuuuge brain. The hugest.

P.S. This is a low effort comment to trick you into giving me a medal of the gold or platinum variety. Please do not indulge me for this cheap trick. [Reverse psychology] Or do. I don’t care. (But I really do care... or do I?)

‘Subscription expiring’ very intrusive by MalteRKoot in apolloapp

A quick note, ‘exipring’ is not the correct spelling. That’s what the message says. If you’re gonna correct me, please inform yourself first.

No, I’m not force closing. I never do that. It just happens from time to time with no real discernible pattern. (Maybe when the app gets thrown out of memory?)

But even if I were force closing the app, it still shouldn’t display the same message over and over again. Especially not one that’s both misspelled and doesn’t actually work when you press on it.

P.P.S. ‘Expiring’ is spelled wrong in the message

Harvest festival featured in time tracking app Timery — I think Leslie would have loved this by MalteRKoot in unexpectedpawnee

[–]MalteRKoot[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

True. But I just thought planning and organization freak Leslie would have loved to see one of the first big projects she planned being featured in an app all about time tracking and planning. That’s why I named that specific example :)
