FlowScape: Paint 3D Animated Scenes in Seconds

FlowScape is a powerful meld of an art creation tool and a game, providing a zen-like atmosphere as you work to create natural scenes. It uses the Unity game engine to allow physics and animation for the elements used to fill the scene. There are hundreds of unique models including trees, flowers, rocks, buildings, animals, and fantasy creatures, with the option to import your own. It’s a very intuitive system in that you can drop and paint items onto your square of land and quickly create a living 3D landscape!

This community tutorial shows examples of world-building with FlowScape, showing that fascinating sandbox creative experience.
