I was wondering about an earlier type of steampunk. Say late 18th, early 19th...before steam engines became non-atmospheric in terms of pressure.
You could have hot air balloons, massive batteries, visual signaling, windmills, clockwork time bombs...
But there would be some very inefficient steam engines around.
Maybe the genre could be called "Inefficient Steampunk"
or "Atmospheric Steam Pump Punk" or just "Steam Pump Punk"...
