Come up with a game idea of your own
« on: May 17, 2008, 04:27:32 AM »
Reading the Dead Space thread gave me an idea. Since there's no EVIL DEVELOPERS here to steal our ideas, let's post any concepts that pop into our heads.


Here's my idea for a REALLY scary game: A game where you wake up unarmed, deep within in the Catacombs of Paris or a similar area, with a flashlight and ten hours worth of batteries. You have to find your way out, whether your batteries run out or not. Think about having to stop to change them every so often, especially if you just saw something move. It could be black-and-white and grainy, to enforce the sense of darkness and to emulate the night-vision on cameras.

That'd be terrifying.

I know what Sadness is. I think you stole their idea!
No, their idea had to do with Victorian stuff and leading some blind kid around a train and monsters with toothed vagina stomachs.

While interesting, it would mainly involve sitting in some ancient castle/dungeon/cave waiting for a group of heroes to find you. Even if you actually beat them, though, they'd just come back later with better equipment and higher stats.

But seriously, games like Overlord and Dungeon Keeper had some pretty good takes on this concept.

My game would be a combination of free-roaming RPGs and The Sims/Simcity. On the one hand, you fight monsters in dungeons and find treasure. On the other, you purchase your own castle, raise a family, and entice merchants to your burgeoning empire.

i'd create a sims-esque community game where you could chat, play minigames, hook up, build/buy houses/apartments, etc. but the twist is that you can also decide to be a serial killer and stalk people in real time. you can only do it at night, and there'd be a mgs espionage system for sneaking up behind people and slitting their throats.

or you could drag them back to your fully customizable dungeon and dismember them using any torture style you like, from the inquisition to water boarding fun.

imagine being in a virtual reality house party when the lights go out and people start screaming (mic support included).

So it's like one of those Mario rom-hacks where the game purposefully keeps you from winning?

I want a Gundam game running on the ZOE2 engine, with lots of levels in massive cityscapes. If that ever gets made, I'd die a happy man.

yes please same.

it's a shame that all the older 70s anime mecha are relegated to things like super robot wars.

i'd love a real Combattler V game

A RTS game based on this:


[youtube=425,350]<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>[/youtube]

You can play as the US and try to suppress the Mexican revolt. Many Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and Californian cities would be claimed as Mexican strongholds at the start. This gives the Mexicans US weaponry seized from these cities to use to defend themselves and expand Aztlan borders.

Play as Mexico and take back what was taken from you. Use US military technology against the US including nukes. Try and persuade other ethnic groups to help your cause. Use Mexicans that hold high ranking positions in the US military and government to gather intelligence. Playing as Mexico would give you a few extra turns to start out with and get organized. The initial revolt would be a surprise to Americans and cities would be easy to take over at first since most Americans are pussies and would flee. It would also take a few turns for the US to decide how it would approach and offensive on mostly its own people.

There so much more I can add but this is a start.

my game would involve a lot of diapers and gorillas and stuff. It would basically be a 3-D action/sandbox game with some stategic elements like Battalion Wars. Basically youve got various gorillas walking around and you issue them commands like shit their diapers or poop in a garbage can etc. Or you can send them down the street to put a cock in someones ass or something. You can customise the gorillas with masks/ different coloured diapers and stuff with the intuitive character creation system

I'd like to see an alt-history grand strategy game where the CSA had managed a sort of white peace with the Union in Jan/Feb 1863 (under pressure from France and England), before the fall of Vicksburg.  Mormon separatists managed to negotiate with the Union afterwards and form their own independent state of Deseret out west. From there, it's sort of an open history/sandboxy game with events happening in a pseudo-historical manner with loosely coupled real history events and ficitional alt-history events, all the way up and through World War 2.

I know that this can be set up via Victoria/Hearts of Iron 2 but I really am not too keen on doing that.

I'd also like to see a game like Larry Bond's Harpoon, but instead of modern day naval warfare, big awesome interstellar space campaigns with their own rules and technologies.  Just as detailed, though!

I've posted it dozens of times on GAF .. but a Wild West MMORPG. If you think about the typical MMORPG mechanics and apply it to Wild West lore, it would be a natural fit.
