A Bob Ross Game?

Remember Bob Ross? The afro-sproutin', oh-so mellow host of Joy of Painting was a fixture on public television in the 1980s. Sadly, he left this world for that great easel in the sky, but his "happy little trees" and "fluffy little clouds" will live on in a new video game. A company is developing the painting game for the new Nintendo system. It looks like it will be similar to the game Doom, except you'll be holding a virtual paintbrush and there won't be any blood.

The game might suck, but as Bob himself used to say: "We don't make mistakes here, we just have happy accidents."

A Bob Ross video game? Can they do this?

Please clarify what you mean by "Can they do this?".

In the absence of more information, I assume you mean "Is modern technology capable of such a thing?" and I must answer with a resounding yes. They have these games now where instead of the man looking like a bunch of squares, he looks like a man! It's a marvel of modern science!
