PASSPARTOUT THE STARVING ARTIST FREE ONLINE SIMULATOR
Passpartout: The Starving Artist is a very realistic artist simulator in one sense. This game started out feeling good for my soul. The game music puts you in the right mood to feel loose and creative. Despite the necessary cheesiness of the art produced using the primitive artistic tools provided to the player by the game’s user interface, I found the game to be extremely relaxing as I was able to lose myself in the production of art from deep within my being. Incredibly in my time playing, Passpartout: The Starving Artist helped me get in touch with my stream of consciousness as I let my whims guide the brush to produce meaningful colors and shapes to the canvas. Once a player is satisfied with their painting, there is a button to take a screenshot of it in Steam and another button to tweet it out on Twitter for those who are so inclined. I figured I must be a natural painter born with the innate talent to produce masterpieces, so I began my next work. Surprising to me, it sold rather quickly for 127 dollars. I titled my work and placed it out for the attention of the waiting public. I began my time playing Passpartout: The Starving Artist drawing my old favorite, a simple bunny.

I assume this means that there are multiple acts and settings to play through to the game’s completion. When beginning a new game, a screen greets the player with the words Act I. This might make this the world’s first arcade painting simulation. As the title “The Starving Artist” seems to suggest, as the game mounts in challenge it may be harder to sell paintings and pay the rent. Starting with one brush, the player must paint something worthy enough to sell to her critics in order to pay her bills.

The player paints on an easel in a manner that appears similar to the Microsoft Paint user interface. In Passpartout: The Starving Artist the player plays the part of an artistic painter. It was released in 2017 for the Steam platform and runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Passpartout: The Starving Artist is an artistic painter simulator with money management elements developed and published by Flamebait Games. Passpartout: The Starving Artist Title Screen
