Stupid game ideas (Your own)

[General Fuzzy McBitty]

Evolution: World Builder

This would be a god game where you create a world. You choose which species evolve and how they evolve.

Want fish to grow legs and become the dominant species? Fine.

Want Hippos to rule the world? Fine.

Want all the species to grow at equal rates until the world ends in mass animal war? Fine.

I thought it was a good idea, until I realized how difficult it would be to do.

I got a great idea,

you are like this character and you like... can only

express yourself through violent bouts of spiting

and everybody is like trying to talk to you and involve

you in this awesome storyline but you just always kill

everybody with your spit...hmmmm

Did you ever play Postal 2 on Liberman mode?

It would be like an adventure game with the realistic posability of screwing up and failing, but then you can rewind time when you make a mistake like POP. Pair that up with a great story and you got yourself a classic!

[General Fuzzy McBitty]

I think being able to pause time would be interesting in an adventure... think of the humor and puzzle possibilities.

How about a game where you're Al Roker and you have to fight a legion of monkeys that have chainsaws for hands.

[General Fuzzy McBitty]

Now I want a game where I can contol a legion of monkeys...

[Tanukitsune]

How about a game where you take lewd photos of anvils while avoiding a robotic ninja grandpa in a tu-tu, and you also have to prevent midgets in koala kilt suits from stealing all the pink toasters in the world?

In would take place in the years 30XX and the hero would be a dyslexic pirate parakeet named Karl Karlson the 3rd...

Did I mention you'd have a cannon that shoots....NINJA MONKEYS?

You know what I think would be cool? Like, imagine this totally weird, fantasy world where the light of the Moon can turn people insane, right? And there used to be two Moons in the sky but apparently a group of thieving, good-for-nothing gypsies stole the other and hid it somewhere, because that's the kind of shit Gypsies do. And in this world, there are Atronomers, except THIS kind of Astronomy is exciting because they get to explore the highest mountains and the deepest caverns and the most dangerous corners of the Planet in search of clues as to why the Light of the Moon drives people insane. And the main character is an astronomer, and she gets to do cool and exciting things, and it'd be awesome. Oh, and there are these mines, and they are suspicious looking, because they're very high security and nobody knows what they're mining down there. But they get Gypsy Kids to mine them, because they're just the right size to climb down all those mineshafts (and nobody cares about Gypsy Kids). And if they're too young to mine, like if they're Baby Gypsies, they hang them in cages on the beams across the Mines, and use them to detect Methane in the air. Because Baby Gypsies have really delicate lungs and are sensitive to Methane and stuff. So if there's a bunch of dead babies hanging in cages on the ceiling, you know to get out of there pretty snappy.

Oh, and the Protagonist is a Gypsy, but for some reason she was brought up in the settled world. Man, I ALREADY want to play this game!!! I wish it was for real!!!

Hey what about a game where a prince has to rescue a princess and succeeds, only to realize it's not what he wanted because the princess has a terrible personality.

What a shitty idea.

Whoops I actually made that game. I will now kill myself.

[Salka]

And to think that I was really looking forward to Chris' and Marek's ideas.

Well, there's still Chris.

Whoa! And it'd be great if the game was called... say... Luna?

[hermes]

Well this game should be called Vira - and it would be a cross between a biological simulation and a turn-based strategy game....

In this you would fight as vira (viruses?) against all other species on the earth..

The vira should have hive mind and would have to change their abilities to succeed and not die out with the mammut or peniclin - such things.

World war on the DNA scale! Maybe it should be called 'The War of the DNA'..

The feel of the game should be really alien-like ... with a crazy spooky GUI and eerie music.... You should feel as a weird hive-intelligence when you played this game... and oh their should of course be a story that involved the concept that evolution is really on the DNA-plane and humans and all species should just be considered very short-living manifestations of this crazy DNA-intelligence working on a mucher bigger time-scale.... or something.....

I played it and it was completely hyped and overrated. I'm gonna kill myself too I think.

I think I'm part Gypsy...

Anyhow, the only really disterbing thing was the whole using babies insted of birds... that was a bit over morbid.

Another question: How can they study the effects of the moon (and the moon itself) without going insane?

You made GTAIII? I totally didn't know that...

[Marek]

While we're at it, I might as well kill the person who crushed my spirit to such a degree that I willingly and knowingly made this game.

You made GTAIII? I totally didn't know that...

It's what I tell girls in bars.

[Ryam BaCo]

a game about catching pigs in wwII should do it

[MrHoatzin]

It's what I tell girls in bars.

Don't we all. Don't we all.

[General Fuzzy McBitty]

How about a game where you try to take over the world through brand name marketing?

[Marek]

a game about catching pigs in wwII should do it

Ah that reminds me. Someone should make a WWII themed game from the perspective of a war dog. Call of Duty meets A Dog's Life.

[General Fuzzy McBitty]

I want a game called Robin Williams Spazzes Out!

2 player mode would feature Ozzy Osbourne.

i had a similar idea, except with speeded-up continental drift. and realistic physics. and so on.

what's the villain like?

[Salka]

SUPER CRAZY AND EVIL!!!

[Nick]

Call it Pikey Moon

My game would be Sonic the Hedgehog... but First Person... with a treadmill.
