It was weirder than Katamari. It involves an invisible lumberjack who has to restore colour to the world. And he can get the Billy Dee Williams look on the way.

Ever had any good game ideas?

A somewhat realistic multiplayer game where one player is a serial killer and the other players have to catch the killer, with points given for various goals completed.

Ever had any good game ideas?
What kind of games?
Board games? Made one.
Computer games? Designed a couple...

I had this awesome idea for a game once where you control a nation and make political decisions in order to shape it's policies and qualities.

But that'd never get made...

That's not half bad...

Oh yes, I have one! You replace Bush's brain with a bag of cement, and then you go around trying to find anyone who notices any difference :D

Grand Thef Camel: Jerico

A free form bibilical game where you can accept missions from competing factions, Romans, Jewish Orthodoxy, Satan, and God. You can kill rape and pillage till your hearts content. See a baby, stick it on a spear. See a family, kill the males, rape the daughters, or the other way around. What could possibly be more family values than brining the bible to life.

You must sex with as many people as possible in order to save the world from the Omega-77 Jesus Gerbil who will destroy the humanity devour all of earth's resources.

GTC: Jericho! That's hilarious!

Post #4, that's pretty damn quick.

Once while playing Age of Kings, I imagined a game where the damn pikemen actually stayed in formation and fought like a block, and tactics worked. Then I found that the Creative Assembley got there first.

No, but the other day a friend of mine had a wicked idea for a band name:

Shiphalitic Leprachaun

Oh god. X-X MAY THIS NEVER COME TO PASS!

That sounds like an STD.

Not very original, but I´ld like to see a 7th Sea (http://www.swashbucklingadv.com/) multiplayer game, with nice graphics and a good, and with that I mean excellent, Gamemaster mode, allowing for good story-telling and real roleplaying, not merely slaying monsters WoW-style.

That sounds like an STD.
It is! :p That's what's so awesome! :p

Grand Theft Popemobile: Vatican City

Now that, would be awesome

I've designed a boardgame for what I think is more realistic space combat. Sorta submarines in space, but with an elegant balance of complexity and simplicity. I'd love to see that in code.

So many... a better version of the Heaven Versus Hell game that's coming out soon, with a redesigned strategic paradigm. An RPG based upon my NS nation/planet.

Oh yeah - a game where you have to program a spaceship. Ya know how in star trek they're always talking bullcrap about re-routing command functions through various auxiliary nodes and whatever... something along those lines. You'd have to write programs to re-route power, control energy flow to weapons and program missile seeker warheads in 20 lines or less. All the components on the ship would have different behaviours commanded by the system, so you could really customise and tune the interface to do all sorts of things with vessel functionality. You could also design starships and eventually make the whole thing MMO. I even know what engine I'd use.

I'd like to see the Steve Jackson classic "Car Wars" be brought to a console. Not just autos with weapons, but complete control of design from the chassis and wheels to the armaments and armor and engine and computers with details like weight and placement affecting handling, acceleration and everything else. Missions, free roaming, building up of stats and reputation, arenas for amateur night and league combat, factions, the whole ball of wax. Sort of like Gran Turismo meets Armored Core meets Roadkill meets Twisted Metal Black meets WoW.

RoboRally was close to that. Programming robots turn-by-turn to navigate through hazardous arenas. Great board game.
