If you're a person who * loves drawing but has artist's block, * is trying to get better at drawing by creating something new every day, * is bored and wants to play a game, or any combination of the above, then this skill is for you!
Drawspiration gives you an almost unlimited amount of drawing ideas! In other words, if you ever need creative inspiration, just say, "Alexa, open drawing inspiration!"
Some generated examples: * A jittery, frightened, 3-winged kangaroo * A cow * A 1-armed, 6-legged, playful platypus
Didn't understand what Alexa said? Don't worry, just follow the instructions Alexa says after the idea and Alexa will repeat it for you, this time slowly!
Want a fun party idea?? Turn Drawspiration into a game! * Step 1: Gather some friends. * Step 2: Get some drawing materials (pens and paper). * Step 3: Get a timer and determine how long each person gets to make a drawing (1 or 2 minutes is a good, stressfully-funny amount of time). * Step 4: Have someone say, "Alexa, open Drawspiration." Once everyone understands what Alexa said, start the timer, and have everyone start drawing! * Step 5: Once the time is up, the players have to stop drawing. * Step 6: Have the players vote on whose drawing is best. The one with the highest vote wins the round and gets a point! * Step 7: Repeat steps 4-6 three or more times (however much you want). The person with the highest score at the end wins! * In the case of a tie, have a draw off! Have all of the tied players draw a new idea. The one with the highest score wins! (repeat if there is another tie).
Want more/better stuff? Here's a list of planned improvements: * ☑ Alexa show integration. * ☐ Better pronunciations of words. * ☐ Remembering your last prompt so you can exit the skill. * ☐ Daily prompts (so you can compare with others!). * ☐ Daily visit counter (if you visit a few days in a row, Drawspiration will have a surprise!). * ☐ Drawspiration - Challenge Mode (basically the game but with built in timers).
