TLD Snowglobes For Sale

[Bill Tarling]

Going back through the backer perks, I suddenly realized there's a novelty merchandising item for the future to consider (that it seemed so appropriate for the first TLD game)...

I wonder if there's any chance we might eventually be able to buy a TLD Snowglobe?

[ it would make a great promo piece too ] :oP

[Dalec]

Yes, to this

(Maybe a TLD themed pancake mix and strap on beard as well?)

I'd love to have the cabin scene in a snowglobe.

[robdoar]

I would love the cabin snowglobe. Brilliant.

I have no idea what it would cost to make, but I'd pay $25 without blinking.

Definitely love that idea!!!

[mousewings]

The cabin in a snowglobe would be cool.

[TattooedMac]

Put me down for 2 . . . . .

Something like this really epitomises what this game is all about. Will be looking for the "store" over on the TLD site

This is a neat idea, perhaps once TLD becomes a hit and sells millions of copies the team can look at producing some items like this.

Or even for promo releases and giveaways just for the media when TLD gets its official public release date

I wonder if you could add a bit of color swirl/wave to the top of the glass to mimic the aurora borealis.

Also, I feel like the base shouldn't be some polished/painted wood. But rather something more "found" or handmade.

ummmm.... like a pancake? *jk*

The Aurorae effect is easy enough to do in a snow globe (could even really enhance it with an on/off button or tap switch to shine a green LED onto a clear inner wall -- that way it would also have a glowing effect at night. You could even use a few glow in the dark highlights on the cabin or snow

Actually, as a promo giveaway for media or tradeshows (if that's what's done), keeping manufacturing costs down would likely be priority... For selling, a merchandise version could be upped and customized a bit more.

@Bill @ArrayKnight You are talking like it would be already made. hahaha

[JetroKoro]

I would buy that snowglobe in a heart beat! And the way that @BillTarling described it is amazing. Can already see that if I close my eyes...

Haha. Looks amazing!

[robdoar]

I love you Bill.

[Bill Tarling]

I love you Bill.

*rotfl* You just want my snowglobes... tell the truth *lol*

[Bill Tarling]

When TLD comes out, I have a feeling we'll all be so immersed in the game that we'll feel like we're living in the snow globe :oP

[Guest emily_hinterland]

I totally want one of @BillTarling's TLD snowglobes!

[JetroKoro]

Chocolate, salty snowglobes. Bwahahah.

[robdoar]

I see what you did there Jetro.

[Guest emily_hinterland]

@BillTarling @robdoar @JetroKoro, did you see the snowglobe on the Steam holiday sale page? All that's missing is the aurora http://store.steampowered.com/

Cool -- looks better than my snowglobe... although you're right: it really does need the aurora in the background )
