The Magic Paintbrush: Xbox Game Design, VR

Brief: Create a game from a book you loved as a child

My favourite book was the Ladybird book 'The Magic Paintbrush', I loved the artwork as well as the story itself. I thought it would make a beautiful VR game for the Xbox. I thought it would be incredible to walk around a stunning village in China, whilst using a paintbrush to help villagers fix carts, or even paint them a horse to help in the fields. Using a special handheld VR paintbrush alongside the headset, you have the freedom to paint your own beautiful home and garden, clothing and various customisable items.

The game would include:
- Customisable characters
- Customisable clothing, hair colour, hairstyle and eye colour
- linear storyline goals as well as side quests to extend gameplay
- In-game, upgradeable paintbrush imagery
