Clockpunk is a setting aesthetic related to Steampunk and [[Dieselpunk], but even older. Like its kinfolk, it runs on the premise of using archaic technology - in this case clockwork - to achieve feats equal or superior to modern technology. Clockpunk is undoubtedly one of the cooler-looking forms of aesthetic-punk, with its emphasis on shiny gears and springs and levers, making it popular particularly for more magitek type settings. The problem is that, even more so than the other aesthetic-punk styles, it runs into the whole "that's scientifically impossible!" protest. After all, the generative motion for all that clockwork has to come from somewhere.
