Dream men

In dark caves, you may find paintings on the wall from builders long ago, telling stories from the Dreamtime. While they remain stagnant now, you can awaken these paintings yourself by bringing a jukebox down to the deep labyrinths.

Each disc played in front of these paintings results in a different reaction, a different story. They could be simple dances portraying the building of structures like the desert and jungle temples, or maybe even elaborating on what happened in the mysterious discs 11 and 13. 

These creatures are based on the Aboriginal dreamtime and dreamtime art, and while I don't imagine that they'd leave their blocks that they're painted on, I'd imagine that they'd dance or move around the painted blocks around them, and maybe certain songs require certain paintings.

I know this is a really out there suggestion, but it could be really amazing to see these little guys in the game. It would really give Jukeboxes and the Music Discs a whole new use.

    I really like the idea. It would be cool for the jukebox to have a use like that, but might be complicated to implement.

    There could be Cave Drawings which would go well with the other Archaeological stuff.

    I'm not sure jukeboxes should be used in this. Perhaps there are just different Cave Paintings that do different things when activated

    When player is near these paintings, a some kind of mysterious soundtrack should start playing, because jukeboxes don't fit in those caves. Just my opinion ;).
