/v/ - Video Games

That's not a well-formed game idea. The failure of this idea is, of course, in the details of the implementation.

> extremely esoteric hints tell you which rooms are trapped

really? how? exactly? Because when I read this all I hear is a wiki with about 9 entries in it to have open on the second screen.

OK, now then. Here is my bad idea for a video game: It's a sneaking game. It's a 3D game, first person view. You play as a heat resistant jumping cockroach. Your goal is to shit in as many people's tomato soups as possible. The can skitter left/right (strafe), do a fast-dash under napkins and the like, climb spoons and other 3D objects. You submerge in the soup and shit. Then on to the next bowl of soup. Bonus points for shitting on the spoon. Of course you can swim through the soup. Peaking out to check for danger is a key mechanic. Clutching the underside of the spoon for a free ride is a valid tactic. When the action gets hot though you have to dodge hammerfists and run for deep cover.

>>13772514

>really? how? exactly?

start by watching the fucking movie, you dumbshit spaz.

A multiplayer shooter styled like a bargain bin hunting game but the creatures you have to hunt progressively get more and more wild. You start by killing deer, then bears, then you swear you see a fucking chupacabra in the corner of your eye. After baiting and shooting some more bucks, you see a fucking monster suck blood out of one of your fresh kills on your way down the tree stand. You kill that and bag it too. eventually you get enough cash to buy rare bait to hunt sasquatches. It goes good until fucking aliens beam down and you get to headshot their grey faggot faces and bait them with retard brains. Watch out for skinwalkers and wraiths, because the aliens came here to activate a high-tech ancient portal to hell. Now you're hunting demons and craft Mythic Tier overalls out of devil pelts because this game also has an RPG gear system. As all this crazy shit happens, the multiplayer mode lets you shoot other hunters too if you're careful not to get caught, so every server inevitably disintegrates into a sniper bloodbath somewhere in the west coast country. you can even mount your friend's head on your cabin wall in the multiplayer social hub cabin system where you invite people in your friend's list to your tricked out crib and show off all your trophies while downing cheap shitty beer because that's a keybind.

>>13772416

some thing like that already happened

http://store.steampowered.com/app/434730/Half_Dead/

Here is mine.

>Haydee without the memes.

A simple pet raising/battling game that generates a hash based on data from your mobile phone. Something similar to like Megaman BN or Accel World. Google Glasses compatible but not required.

Where my AR monster battling games at?

guys

i have a crazy idea

okay

how about a game

that's fun

>>13772416

Shit OP, I saw a game like you are describing, indie shit, probably will never get out of early access and it's terrible wanky….was on a jewtuber streamnortherlion

Here's the game half dead

The Elder Scrolls, but good.

>>13773170

I would Kickstart this.

>game where you play as a Monster Hunter Blacksmith/Chef.

>Basic synopsis is that monsters open a portal to their world post death, with the only non-living material getting through the portal being made out of said monsters.

>You need to handcraft each weapon, piece of armor, and ration the adventurers take with them on their adventure.

>In depth cooking and smithing system, with each item being crafted realistic techniques (chiseling for boneware, tanning for leather, etc) somewhat like a CAD interface.

>different monster worlds require new equipment, with varying levels of difficulty to butcher and manufacture

>go from chiseling dinosaur bones to using dark magic to cut apart dead gods your adventurers bring back.

A game that's like Zelda, except it controls like God Hand when you lock on to enemy.

>>13773106

Sorry anon, that wouldn't be very profitable in this market.

>>13772416

There's a few maps in Sven Co-op that are based on this idea, although they aren't as well designed.

>>13772416

Detective game that starts out seemingly normal but weird and unexplained stuff starts happening. Game opens with what seems to be a typical murder case but evidence and witness testimony you collect starts to get weird. Suddenly you're reassigned to a different case and the case you were on gets shelved, or handed to somebody you don't' trust. You have to go under the radar and continue the investigation yourself. Over time it gradually turns into X-Files/DeusEx-style conspiracy game where you uncover all sorts of secret shit, try to infiltrate government facilities, get contacted by shadowy figures who feed you bits of information, etc. Gameplay has some combat but focuses mostly on stealth, deduction and problem-solving.

>>13772789

I'd play this

>>13773993

That'd be rad.

>>13774692

>You literally just described deus ex.

Yes I guess I did. In my head it was more like Paranormal LA Noire but then I kept adding shit and didn't stop to realize it was just Deus Ex again.

>a knight and squire armed with a rocket launcher and laser cannon

WH40k?

>Master of magic clone

>except cultural development and religion are an important aspect too

>like Civ V, your culture slowly gains new traits. You can speed this progress up which risks you gaining negative traits

>culture has periods of golden ages and periods of decline, you can extend golden ages or make them start earlier at the risk of taking negative traits

>religion is the other important aspect

>people can become demigods and ascend to true godhood through achievements

>a warrior can turn into the demigod of combat by killing enough people for example

>gods with negative effects can appear too, someone who dies of starvation could turn into the god of famine

>can choose to keep these gods on your pantheon which means you get a malus of some sort, or you can kick them out, which turns them into a free agent who can create cults, ally with your enemies, and generally be a pain in the ass.

A few

>Open world stealth

>Either a Thief like setting in a city or perhaps more like MGSV, behind enemy lines, gather intel, sabotage etc.

>Wanted posters all over the place if the first, city is in martial law perhaps so the streets are closed and full of guards

>Thief light/dark meter, sound on different surfaces, guards will be persistent, no running around a corner and waiting two minutes for them to reset, guards will change their patterns upon discovery

>Witcher like game, practically just a Witcher game really

>More in depth hunting however

>Mission based, some take place in small villages, others in big chunks of a city

>Have to really investigate and leave no stone unturned in some missions

>Missions range from sending a ghost on its way, to fighting werewolves, solving murder mysteries, leading expeditions etc.

>Wrestling focused beat 'em up, but crossed with Platinum style combat

>Essentially just a Platinum game, but with full on punches, kicks, suplexes, powerbombs, wrestling holds

>Just want to run around dropping dragons on their heads or punching goblins into little pieces

>Could also be an All Might game I guess, just a fun, fast paced beat 'em up

Cube 2 and 3 sucked ass

If it were based on cube 1 the retarded math genius is a must.

horror game that has nothing that can harm you at first, but little things change over time in a relatively large environment you are at (let's say a neighborhood with several accessible houses), sometimes lights go on and off, mannequins appear in windows and change positions, creepy sounds from unaccessible areas and the player is expected to complete some hard puzzle. THe longer you take to complete the puzzle, the game starts changing in more drastic ways until eventually you start taking damage by ie. a random plate hitting you from the back. This goes on until some monsters manifest and begin loosely following you like slenderman.

>>13775037

>yfw Cabin In The Woods is a rip off of Cube 0

>>13775046

and a significantly shittier one too at that

>>13773170

A Ubisoft game

>hey hey guys here's my idea!

>what if this game is THAT YOU DIE because fuck if I know

>it's gonna be sooo hardcsouls

You wasted pools of semen, what we need is fun gameplay. Updating graphics with stale gameplay and fad difficulties are killing gaming.

>>13774981

I've only seen Cube 2, is it really that bad in comparison to the first?

>>13775119

>Old Testament

It's another jews game

Well closest thing I know to cube is this. It captured being locked up in some fucked up testing.

Now I think about it Portal could have been excellent cube game if not for the fact they went with "lol so random".

>>13775106

Yes it is basically Saw movies. First one had idea for itself and managed to do it well. Rest are shitty horror movies.

an actual open-level detective game without any handholding

>>13775140

That mod is pretty good

You play a monster hunter sent from the church

except instead of using swords, or blessed spells, or whatever the fuck

You wrap your hands in two crucifixes and punch/kick/wrestle the shit out of monsters and demons

The game ends on piledriving Satan after a brutal hand to hand fight

>>13775871

So like reverse bayonetta an instead of guns on your hands and feet it's crosss?

>>13772416

There's a source mod with a cube inspired map OP, it has almost everything you describe. I think it was either on synergy or obsidian conflict.

>>13775892

I just want a DMC-like where you punch and wrestle people around.

>>13775893

Came here to post this. I could never get it working though.

>>13775826

Honestly I thought you were going for a superhero origin story until that last bit. I kind of wish there was a game that had you doing real gritty detective work until the last fifth of the game where it flips the script and turns into a superhero beat em up when you've finally had enough bullshit.

>>13772416

This thread is on /pol/, anon

stop making me want to watch this leaf film again

>>13775914

So a more literal god hand?

>>13775871

isn't this basically castlevania lords of shadow, you don't punch people but you have a cross shaped whip

>Four-player action RPG for Switch.

>Can play alone with AI partners or with up to four friends, online and off.

>Dungeons are loaded into one screen.

>Game's 3D with an overhead perspective like A Link between worlds.

>Controls are designed around one joycon, including clickie, side bumper, and trigger.

>Face buttons are for action (context), jump/dodge, weapon, and selected magic/item and are customizeable to face buttons.

>SL and SR are for block and quick select belt items/magic and are swapable.

>Only one section charges at a time.

>Bars are burned to cast screen nukes or healing spells.

>Burned mana bars do not recharge without ethers or mana pots.

>Consumeable/throwable items will need to be taken off belt with one hand to hold before use, so most weapons sheathe.

>If belt is full you can still pick up pot/bomb in hand and drop or use it then, but not store.

>Some lost HP can heal via red bar naturally.

>Recovering HP and MP needs items/magic or food if resting at camps/checkpoints.

That's all I got for now. Haven't decided if I'm going to use a traditional leveling system or use artifacts for temporary stat boosts and perks you sell at the end of adventure a la Crystal Chronicles.

Mine would be a twist on the stale FPS genre.

>Cheap, amateurish web cartoon artstyle

>movement keys default to ESDF.

>playing through the tutorial is highly encouraged because of an overwhelming amount of esoteric design choices like this and that I want people to check out the origin of the game's quirky central protagonist.

>A Metroidvania hybrid in the vein of PowerSlave with tools that allow for creative puzzle solving like jet boots that allow you to float in mid-air and a hologram projector that can confuse enemies and security sensors.

>Instead of collecting ammo from fallen enemies weapons: you have "mana pools" for your guns, explosives, and melee weapon special abilities that you recharge by switching between them,

>collecting diegetic icons of weapons from fallen enemies (in the context of the story: it's a popular fad among the terrorists you fight to collect them like pogs) gives you copies of weapons you already have, allowing you to New York Reload your guns rather than actually reload them which is useful when you're dual-wielding.

>multiple ammo types.

>The SPAS-12 can be dual-wielded thanks to the hooks that comes its stock but it can only use lethal ammunition and non-lethal rounds like pepper spray can only be used with a single shotgun.

>At first, the story is about taking down a terrorist organization and it's gradually revealed that they're funded by the United States government, which is run by a cabal of powerful and highly-influential satanists which includes the president and the patriarch of the richest family in the world, and meant to be a diversion to the protagonist while they summon their Lord and Master Satan and he turns out to be real. However, after Satan is summoned and defeated: he reveals that he really is an alien and flees to his home planet and the protagonist realizes that the threat is much bigger than he anticipated so he decides he needs help and opts to wait for one of his descendants to go back in time and help him since, he figures, only somebody as awesome as him could help him. Which brings us to…

>The second episode that takes place 250 years into the future with a new protagonist who's practically the opposite of the first one in her personality and gameplay style.

>While the first one is a speedster who can dual-wield: this new one much more of a heavy-hitter with a huge cyborg arm that she lunges at enemies with and guns that have slower fire-rates and reload times but do an average 3.5 times more damage.

>the tone of this episode is a much darker Western set in the future like Cherry 2000.

>When she goes back in time to help the first protagonist: the next episode is a co-op campaign of sorts that takes place on Satan's homeworld.

>rather than have the player deal with bad AI pathing: your inactive character will usually stay behind you and is invincible until you tag him/her in like in Donkey Kong Country.

>Their tools can synergise so, with the man using his jet boots to float in place while holding a baton for the girl to grab with her extending robot arm: she can reach another grappling point that would, otherwise be inaccessible to her.

>The game will even take advantage of the fact that they both have flamethrowers (that are actually fun to use) and by having both of them be the keys to a puzzle's solution.

>>13773106

Could be the idea that would net you more money and recognition than you can handle

>>13772789

That's great!

>>13773170

Will it have melee combat that's as good as Hotline Miami's? That game's essentially Grand Theft Auto 2 with no driving or open world.

>>13777632

Cool shit, anon. There aren't enough games where the player becomes stronger through experimentation instead of just buying skills. TES games with their spellmaking/enchanting systems probably come closest.

>Any time there is a major social interaction it changes to a battle map, and you try to build trust/alleviate mistrust with the person you are interacting with.

>You can pickpocket someone while in the battle map by getting close to them in a way that seems trustworthy, directing their attention away from the object you are trying to take from them, then taking the object.

>You can research the organization you are trying to infiltrate so you can preform hot reading, name dropping, badge flashing, and all around better manipulate the people inside. Some battle map options don't show up unless you have done your research.

>You can wear disguises to build more trust, like the IT guy babbling away about how he needs to plug in this USB into your computer to test something, and he needs your ID card, password, pin, and last four digits of your social security number to run a diagnostic of the network.

I had a similar idea

>otherwise you spend all day brewing sobering potions for drunks, healing poultices for the hospital, diagnose various poisonings or diseases, create bombs for adventurers, hire adventurers or teenagers to collect ingredients(depending on rarity), open up an alchemy shop and various other alchemy related adventures

>can also sell recipes online to either help those who really have trouble with certain puzzles, or to come up with a more effective potion of some sort

>>13773099

A problem is the battle mechanics, with pokemon go you could just walk around town and pick up monsters in less than a minute. A turn based battle would only be able to happen when you’re idle.

>>13773548

sounds basically like monster hunter, but emphasis on crafting? It might work if you could get a team to kill monsters for you.

>>13774993

Interesting, but, puzzles aren’t always suspenseful. Doing a crossword while getting beaned in the head isn’t exactly fun. So you would have to emphasize puzzles that deal with mobility and awareness.

>>13777562

So Four Swords but with actual wireless coop now. Online matchmaking would probably be frustrating, so the game would probably just be a dungeon rush. Good idea though.

>>13777712

A metroidvania fps would be interesting, but complicating a game for the sake of complicity just seems needlessly antagonistic. It’s better to invite players with things they are comfortable with, then surprise them with difficult gameplay.

>>13781369

You should include an alternate mode where a North Korean assasin has to fight through America to kill the devil president.

An RTS where you are allowed to fail and has a completely dynamic campaign with storyline.

>>13772638

That's actually really bad game design, if the clues are obscure to the point you need to use autistic calculus to crack the code then nobody is going to play it.

>>13783652

Sounds sorta similar to FFXII. I would suggest all characters sharing a pool of actions, and you can only perform so many actions in a turn. So you would want inexpensive, reactionary characters on reserve, and would have to wait a few turns for expensive character combos.

>>13783712

The beauty is that only one person has to be good at solving the clues. In fact that person might not even be the one who notices how to solve them. Even if you are completely useless, your group can use you as bait for the next room.

>>13783775

>Sounds sorta similar to FFXII. I would suggest all characters sharing a pool of actions, and you can only perform so many actions in a turn. So you would want inexpensive, reactionary characters on reserve, and would have to wait a few turns for expensive character combos.

The idea was to avoid turn-based combat (thus the side-scrolling combat) and instead make the combos more time or resource consuming. So a mage casting a levitate spell strong enough to lift a human up to where he needed to go would not only use a large amount of stamina, but also leave them open to attack while the spell is out. Each character would have to have a stamina bar that drains quick enough to require swapping out characters at least once per notable encounter, even for a skilled player. There would also have to be enemies that are weak to certain types of weapons that only specific characters are skilled with.

>>13783775

>The beauty is that only one person has to be good at solving the clues. In fact that person might not even be the one who notices how to solve them. Even if you are completely useless, your group can use you as bait for the next room.

So you've never played any team based multiplayer games whatsoever, it's dead in the water.

>>13783214

>Many guys can relate to this. a lot of us perform very difficult jobs, just so we can financially provide for the one we love most. using the money to take em to fancy restaurants and other things like that.

So it's a game about being a retard?

Alright, mine is nothing special but it's something that l believe would be worthy of trying out

>based off christian mythology, mostly low fantasy

>game takes place in a decaying apocalyptic world, after the black death reduced the population considerably

>the remnants of society embraced religion in zealous ways, making rampant occultism and mass hysteria to spread everywhere

>soulsborne-esque mechanics and minimal storytelling

>the player takes the role of a survivor from an occult ritual who lived in captivity his entire life and knows nothing of the outside world

That's pretty much what l had in mind, a soulsborne clone done the right way

>>13784035

>and knows nothing of the outside world

How is that going to work in the game? Are you making the character voiced? Can they even speak?

>>13783458

(in regards to >>13773548)

You don't fight the monsters at all. You only make the gear.

>>13773548

I actually like this idea a lot, I might actually take a stab at making a game like this!

>>13784335

If you do, post about it here. I'd love to see it in action.

>>13783458

Well not so much Four Swords, just a deeper couch co-op game. However I haven't thought much about online match making because I'm still focusing on combat. The game has no PVP at all. So I'm not worried about matchmaking. For online a lobby could work (and most likely using the Switch Online App for voice chat).

As for leveleling up it could be like Monster Hunter and Crystal Chronicles where your stats are mostly determined by gear or artifacts you win at the end of each mission. In this kind of game I don't see experience points being as useful since it's action based. Having points that determine rank with every dungeon you complete or fail could be how you unlock more missions.

Speaking of Switch online app, I want to make that thing useful for once. Not for voice chat, but for managing in-game mail boxes, inventory back stock, crafting, trades, etc. with those in the lobby and with friends outside.

And lastly I want to make a mercenary system where you can hire other people's avatars who have locked equipment to go on missions for you to harvest materials temporarily in offline mode like hired hunters with Street Pass. You can also hire mercs as NPCs for offline games as well. Though their ranks and gear could lock them out of certain difficulties of missions.

>>13784347

For gameplay, I'm imagining Cooking Mama-esque minigames for the various parts of forging weapons and armor.

Too bad something like this needs a strong art style and direction to do well probably.

>>13784374

I was hoping for more realistic craftsworking/ butchery, but I'd still be interested. As long as it isn't one of those idle games everyone keeps making.

Why are idea man threads a complete fucking joke? there aren't any good ideas here. Why are so much of these ideas story first, or x plus y? even for idea guys you are fucking trash.

>>13784475

I'd go for it, especially if there's no "select a class" screen before the game starts.

Metroidvania with random items like binding of isaac

>>13784509

New Game from the menu would take you straight to the intro and then into the game itself. No classes as such, but class archetypes would loosely exist within the chassis/parts combos available to you. For example, you could make a 'tank' build by going for one of the heavy chassis and using hardpoints for mounting extra armor and shield modules. You can spec for crowd control or single target damage by mounting appropriate weapon types. You would start the game with nothing and acquire everything as you go.

>>13784475

Sounds like fun. It's a shame nothing where you play as a non human looking (ex. Megaman) robot sells well since normalfags can't project themselves onto the robot.

>>13775923

It wasn't very good anyways.

>>13772416

The cube would make a good game. I imagine it would play kinda like The Thing where some people are traitors or insane and others can't really help you much.

>>13784475

I like this. Character death/resurrection could be adequately explained by the story, too.

Different types of chassis could also open up different routes/locations/interactions. A hovercraft chassis could take you over a swamp or quicksand safely, a standard humanoid chassis could gain trust of a purist faction, a heavy duty manipulator could open jammed doors, etc.

>>13784946

>Solar system has a large gas giant with multiple habitable moons populated with sub ftl civilizations with space flight.

This is one of the coolest sci-fi settings ever. I love it.

>>13784657

You mean like this?

>>13773170

I would buy it.

Chapter 1: Game starts as typical WWII shooter. Nazis are the bad guys. You're doing Allied soldier things in Europe, using historically accurate weaponry to fight nazis and shit. Over the course of 8-10 hours, you fight your way across Europe, into Germany, and right into the Fuhrer bunker where you personally kill Hitler.

The credits roll in an unskippable cutscene. The protagonist goes home to the girl of his dreams. In snapshots and short cinematics we see them get married, move into a new house, have 2 kids with a third on the way. This all happens over about 3 or 4 years. Then, at the very end of the credits, we see a zombified hand reach out of the ground as Chapter 2 fades in.

The Nazis have risen as zombies and are rapidly retaking Europe. Being the premier Allied soldier who personally murdered Hitler, you're sent back into battle, and the nazis were really looking forward to that. Their new, zombified constitution makes them more difficult to kill with bullets, but their fervent bloodlust and undead rage has caused many to resort to close range combat and melee weaponry. You're still using historically appropriate weaponry, but the game has more focus on running and shooting since most of the nazi zombies are using long knives. You make your way to historical Auschwitz (remember the 6 million btw) through hordes of zombies, to reach a secret Fuhrer bunker believed to be beneath Auschwitz. You actually find a gladiatorial pit, with nazi zombies in the crowd and Zombie Hitler presiding over the arena. You fight some nazis in the pit, respawning in smaller numbers through gates and in the crowd. The player is expected to take a potshot at Hitler amidst the battles. This pisses Hitler off, and he jumps into the fray to fight you while the nazis all get frenzied. Large amounts of nazi zombies are constantly spawning and you have to fight your way over, under, and through them while Hitler is mingling in the crowd, occasionally leaping out to stab you and shrink back.

Upon killing zombie Hitler, a horrible screech is heard. Demonic limbs reach out from the ground to grab Hitler and the Nazi Zombies. In his rage, Hitler rips open a portal to Hell and sucks you in with him and his followers. There is horrible screeching, burning, and other hellish noise as the screen fades to black with you sinking into hell. Chapter 3 is displayed.

Arriving to Hell you discover that the nazis have taken over the place. While you spent the last 3-4 years fuckin your lovely wife, the Nazis were busy conquering Hell and subjugating the demons and Satan himself. At this point you have to go full Doomguy with 1949 weapons, emptying absurd amounts of human rage as you fight your way through the nein circles of Nazi Hell. The final circle is another battle pit, with the final boss immobile in the center. He is frozen from the waist down like in dante's inferno or whoever it was that came up with the circles and Satan being frozen in the bottom of hell. Nazis, Demons, and Nazi Demons swarm you while you are locked in final combat with the ultimate Hitlucifer, with his spinning, burning swastikas and other shit. Also most of the demons look like Jews. This is because the nazis have imprisoned the demons not because Jews are demons, okay? I'm just remembering the 6 million, that's all.

You defeat Hitlucifer, put an end to the nazis once and for all, and are ejected from the now completely normal Satan-controlled Hell. This time the credits start rolling, and they are skippable. But these are the real credits where you get to see like 500 fucking names of useless shitters you won't remember over 15 like minutes. The Chapter 1 credits were abridged and only contained important people, so it was a reasonable cutscene but long enough to fake you out as being real, but now you get to see special thanks about cats and other shit.

There is no Chapter 4.

Thanks fam.

>Character death/resurrection could be adequately explained by the story, too.

Yep, that's the idea.

>Different types of chassis could also open up different routes/locations/interactions. A hovercraft chassis could take you over a swamp or quicksand safely, a standard humanoid chassis could gain trust of a purist faction, a heavy duty manipulator could

I hadn't considered this but I really like it. Thanks anon!

>>13783458

Thanks for the insight. I think it's auspicious of you to say that, particularly the needlessly antagonistic part, because it would complement the tone of the game's story as well.

But I wouldn't go so far as to call it that because that's precisely what the tutorial is for anyway: to ease people into its unconventional game-play; I mean, I make it sound bad but I don't expect people to play through the tutorial every time they start a new game. In fact, that's why the tutorial is optional in the first place and why this game would have an arcade mode, unlocked after beating the game, with abridged cutscenes that has the characters quickly relay the most pertinent information so they know what's going on and why: so that it's easier for second time players.

Don't get me wrong: your method is good but it's not the right fit for my game.

The last pie in the sky idea I have for this is a dungeon builder where you can make and build dungeons via simplified level editor. There are some AND/OR/XOR/ statements you can use for switches and certain variables like enemies remaining in room/floor. You can also customize a mob's stats and actions/perks as well as behaviors related to some variables to make them like mini bosses. You can have boss rooms in place of floor exits, invisible/destroyable walls, etc. Again, pie in the sky.

As for custom dungeons you'll be restricted who and what equipment you can have relative to dungeon. There's a mode you can play other player's random dungeons to earn cash. ompleting other player's dungeons you earn currency once per day per difficulty. Or you can search dungeons yourself. You can also get friends to co-edit your dungeons where you both become builders on the level.

>Survival Horror Game

>You have to travel from procedurally generated town to town in your old Buick convertible.

>You chiefly move at night as the monsters actually get more active during daylight hours - gathering supplies and commodities in cities, or driving to the next town in your car (assuming you have enough fuel)

>While driving to the nearest city, you can also stop Innnawoods to find rare and/or useful goods hidden away in log cabins, but the woods also have much nastier monsters than the towns.

>During day, you try to get some sleep, doing what you can to divert the monsters that may come knocking on the door of the motel room you just occupied if they wake you up.

>>13792059

Oh, and god help you if your car runs out of fuel while you're in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. There might be gas cans nearby, but there also might be entirely different things nearby.

You put the benis in the bagina.

>>13792059

Were you in the driving based horror thread a while back?

>>13775140

>'lol so random'

I'm gonna bite the bait

PLEASE FUCKING EXPLAIN TO ME HOW PORTAL IS A BAD GAME!

A sim game where you manage a snuff film studio.

>>13792964

It's not, he's just a reactionary shit head who lets imageboards think for him.

I just want an orc recruiting, commanding and breeding simulator.

>>13801994

The shadow of mordor games have you covered on two of those fronts.

>>13802001

But you don't play as an orc.

Besides, it is filled with jewry.

>>13802026

You never said you wanted to.

>>13802095

Oh sorry, it was implied.

But yeah, I want a game where you start as a low slave orc and slowly rise yourself up, defeating heroes and other orcs and even breeding with the heroes you defeat to make even more powerful orcs.

>>13802102

Defiler wings is like that by with dragons

>>13802125

With that name… I guess is a porn game?

>>13802126

Yes. If it has breeding how would it not be?

Of all my idea guy ideas, I have maybe three that are the silliest and most worth sharing:

>A monster hunting type game where instead of using specific recipes to craft weapons and armor, you build from templates and use any monster part that fits your need

>Like if your spear needs a really sharp pointy end, you could use any monster tooth or claw or whatever you have that has the best stats for your needs

>Extra accessories like eyes or feathers or poison glands etc.give extra buffs, but also weigh down and unbalance your items

<A tower defense tycoon game: you control a company that builds gun towers, and you need to produce and sell weapons around the world to defend against invading forces

<There are four different factions attacking humanity, with different weaknesses, so you need to predict where your guns will be needed along with researching new weapons and defending your own factories

<The object of the game is not to fight off the invasions and save humanity, but more to make the biggest profit and defeat the competing weapon companies

>A mini-roguelike where you play as a constantly growing blob mass in a lab, instead of traditional movement you grow yourself across stages

>You accumulate points passively, getting more from devouring human enemies, and use those points to grow yourself further or grow extra things like acid spitters or solid walls from your mass

>Building walls is useful for defensive purposes, as well as blocking off enemy pathways and sealing off rooms to let gas or fire or shit like that spread

I don't wanna share my other ideas, because I think they actually have potential.

>Idea Man

Have you considered learning the skills required to turn these ideas into reality?

>Escape from New York/L.A. type 3rd person shooter like game

>Main objective: Sent in to retrieve a VIP like character who is in a forbidden zone

>You have a real world time limit to do so (difficulty adjustment could involve adding more/less time)

>Only have a few weapons on you including a automatic gun with limited ammo, would have to either steal weapons off enemies or just use your fists

>Can befriend characters on the inside to be your allies but with others (like with more knowledge or skills like access to vehicles or weapons) you will have fulfill personal objectives for them first.

>Could use and abuse those allies until the brink of death if it allows you to complete your objective

>While your bad history on the outside may lead to other characters who want you dead on sight when they learn you are there

>Medical wise, if your character gets hurt in certain ways, it would permanently fuck them up for the rest of the playthrough (like a limp to leg, or poisoning or accuracy/strength to an arm) or potentially slowly bleed out

>Same thing applies to allies and the VIP, you could complete the objective of bring the VIP back who could be near death or dead, nothing saying the VIP had to be brought back alive just retrieved

Monster Hunter, but Kids Next Door themed. Beat up on beasts like school lunch abominations and closet monsters as well as humanoid enemies like Count Spankula and Father. Run scavenging missions to collect material to build 2x4 weapons and gear with, and incorporate adult parts/tech in as you gather them from defeated enemies. Customize your kid, and have access to a variety of spammable gestures, including the traditional KND team pose from the series.
