🏠 The House (IC game, closed, see A/N) 🏠

Posted 5 years, 3 months ago (Edited 4 years, 10 months ago) by circlejourney

UPDATE: as of 17 June, this game is closed, in light of stock photo crediting issues and also the fact that it has been very time-consuming to maintain. To everyone who helped create this monstrosity lovely living space, thank you, and thank you for the great art that it has spawned, too! More about it in this post


A game concept that I thought might be fun. Time to put the "house" in Toyhouse??


The House

To start, there's a tiny and rather disappointing house in the middle of the green. Nothing's in it yet; the walls and floors are bare, the grounds are covered in weeds, and it has the bare minimum of facilities.

Your OCs are looking to move into this house. but it's obviously not up to their standards! Before they do, they can make some change to it, big or small. They might build a new room, plant a hedge, take down someone else's ugly decor, or knock a hole in the wall (with their fist!) because they want a better view from the living room. It's all the same house, so you can also make adjustments to others' changes. Sky's the limit!


How to play

  1. Claim to prevent ninjaing.
  2. Respond IC and say what your OC does to the house.
  3. IC commentary is not necessary, but would be fun. And that's it!

Rules

  • You can either make changes in up to two rooms, or add a room and furnish it.
  • Wait 2 posts before posting again.
  • Interacting with and building on others' additions is fun, but try to avoid completely eliminating someone else's addition immediately after.
  • SFW additions only!

Note that it takes me some time to update this plan + list, do read the most recent comments as well! Also, you don't have to do this to play, but it would be really helpful to me if you could link top-view solid-bg images of objects you add to the room, if you're able to find them!


Art of our humble abode

Maxwell Fletcher dogstarlite

"Well, the least we could do is get a bathroom on the second-floor. Maybe make it two, to make up for the nonfunctional one downstairs."

Fresa ParadiseLost

Fresa put a strawberry-scented air freshener into every room. "There, now it's not weird that my room smells like strawberries." She then retired to said room in avoidance of the craziness that would then ensue.

 Nero celestiials

“I’ll try to unclog the bathroom.” Persona said, matter of factly. Before anyone could say anything, they went in; after god knows how long, they came out. “Good news: it’s unclogged. Bad news... ah, there’s actually none. Maybe.”

Jenna MotherRat

"Hmmm nice little garden but we could use a cactus garden," Jenna says, nodding and making a large cactus and succulent garden next to the pool

Lune zinnia

"Fufu... perhaps I'll add a basement to this... house, if I could call it that."

"Perhaps I'll haul in his lab equipment; I'm running out of room anyways, and surely an eccentric bunch such as you would find a use for it~"

(ooc)

celestiials Historia owlprince (sorry for pings ;w; hopefully its alright i uh. doodled ur characters)

Stellar ThatOneWow

"Well, if there's one thing this place needs, it's a good studio! A singing studio, to be exact!"

marcy htespagheti

"HELL YEA!!!! A STUDIO!!!!!!!" marcy fucking. yells before accidentally punching a hole in the wall between the studio and computer room "oh shit it wasnt me. ill just uhhhhh" they scotch tape a sum 41 poster on the wall over the hole "its,,,, fine,,,,,,,," theres still a small dent on the computer room side

Ilios dogheaded

“Oh dear uh..” Ilios just zooms to the movie theater and throws some blankets onto the chairs for other people.

"Hmnm... the movie theatre doesn't look great without a popcorn machine... Oh! I have an idea! I'll place it near the theatre entrance, so that it will make the theatre feel more like a movie theatre!"

Dean Rosakura

Dean looks around the basment. "This place could use a lot more decor in it." He soon gets a whole diner counter complete with stools and a kitchen set up. "Perfect" He says, also putting some baseball bats on racks in the kitchen of the diner area.

(this house is such a fantastic mess I lowkey wanna try and recreate it in the sims)

 Honda ShinyM36

'' I think we need a Garage  With an old Morris minor pick up in it for me to fix up and drive people around in '' *this makes a mess and leaves tiger paw prints all over the garage floor (and one on the ceiling , well how did that get up there ?? ) * 

Tortekyu Mashter-Potato

Tortekyu finds a secluded corner of the garage, one covered in lots of old boxes, They see an opportunity and ( with some help) move some of them around, creating an area that's just concealed enough to hide most of the large RC-controlled disguise in, likely to give it some polishing and a couple small upgrades... If they ever manage to get the parts to do so..

 Phobos and Deimos Swissy

"Boy oh boy, we can have our own headquarter in the basement!!" The two pony-tailed moon was happy of the idea of having their "own" base, specifically a hero base of somesort. "It's bigger than our current one too! I'll put my wardrobe here" Deimos finished the sentence as she put down 2 boxes infront of the stairs. Phobos though, decided it'd be cool to relax for awhile. He observed the lab equipment without realizing what his sister had done, setting fire to the stove, grills, baseball rack, the counters, and chairs. " I uuhh, I tried to cook marshmallow but i was surprised with the big ass fire and threw the stick away!" she said to the very concerned Phobos.
