Now that 24 hours have passed we have our winner!
A huge thanks to @frezik@midwest.social for suggesting this awesome idea!
A survival crafting game where the tech tree goes backwards. You start in a prepper hole with working water filtration, food sources, etc, and everything is nice. Then something breaks and maybe you fix it. Something else breaks and maybe you fix that. Three things break at once, and at least one of them is going to stay broken. Have to do something more primitive and time consuming.
Eventually, enough things break that it’s no longer sustainable and you die. Game ranks you based on how long you last.
I would also like to thank every person in the comments for making their wonderful suggestions! I’ve read through every single one of them and all of them are really good!
You can view the game’s code at https://github.com/SamLeeway/project-196, which is currently empty at the time of writing this, but every day from now I will contribute code there.
The game currently does not have any name other than “Project 196”, so I will probably host a poll when we have at least something playable.
When the game would be playable? Making games ain’t easy so it’s pretty hard to estimate. I would say in around a week or so I should have a rough prototype if things go right.
A platformer where the characters have powers based on every fetish ever. All of them.
Make sure your game includes a large amount of crypto-only micro transactions
Meh, still a better greenlight process than most major publishers.
I’m thinking an RPG Maker style game. You play as Morpheus, the god of dreams. Each level is a different person’s dream. When you arrive the dream is a nightmare fueled by past experiences and internal feelings. You have to journey through the dreamscape and find these factors and resolve them to heal the psyche of the dreamer and turn the nightmare into a good dream.
An example would be a dream where the dreamer is delivering a presentation in front of a classroom naked while the other kids and teacher make fun of them. As that scene plays out, you walk around the school and discover little tidbits about the dreamer. Some of these tidbits are external factors that led to the dream, like memories of people making the dreamer embarrassed for being themselves. You could resolve these by fighting and defeating them in the form of nightmare creatures. And some of the tidbits will be internal factors, like feelings of insecurity and defense mechanisms like reinforcing ideas, that give power to the twisted logic of the dream. These, you have to heal by pointing out the flawed logic and encouraging the dreamer to accept themselves. Once you do everything, you go back to the classroom and find the dreamer giving a TED talk to an enraptured and admiring crowd.
That’s “Psychonauts”.
Fucking really?
Yep
… Not that I’d mind another psychonauts
Okay this one sounds sick
Ah ADHD: the only way I can hold myself accountable and do something is if random people on the Internet holds me accountable
Looking at that character; I’m thinking Cell-Shaded 3D Platforming with a spinning move like a helicopter.
Sorry to ruin your fun but that character is Hatsune Miku (well known creator of Minecraft and the Harry Potter series). I’m guessing OP just put her there to have some sort of art.
That’s Hatsune Miku, a vocaloid pop star

I think we’re asking for a bit much here…
The
Legally Different BethesdaGame Creation GameYou are
!Todd_Howardand have been tasked with making the best game ever. Allocate resources between the following points: Bug Fixing, Marketing, Writing, New Features, Re-re-re-releasing Skyrim, Shifting goalsCan your next masterpiece be the most successful buggy feature-filled game ever?
As for a game I’d actually love to make/collaborate in making, a FOSS variant of Earth Defense Force 5. EXPLOSIONS! GIANT MONSTERS! OVERPOWERED WEAPONS! EXPLOSIONS! RAZING CITIES! ALIEN ROBOTS! BLEEDING ALIENS! MORE EXPLOSIONS!
A digital card game where players can trade cards with each other. No big digital card game does this for fear of loss of profits.
I miss trading cards with my friends.
A Steamboat Willie rhythm game where the animals make the music
A game that is only perceivable through electric motors on your body
“Save the Lemmyverse” - a game where you are a lemming and each level is one Lemmy community, with insider memes and problems unique to that community which you need to fix. It has dialogue-based sequences where you need to investigate what’s wrong with the community, and then a random minigame to finish each level.
There are shops where you can spend upvotes to buy stuff.
There are collectible memes scattered around the game and you can post them to c/196 to gain upvote currency.
If you accidentally visit without posting anything new, you lose currency.I could go on and on with this :D
awesome idea Survival crafting game
Something ain’t adding up here
Third person or top down shooter but you push around a shopping card with all your weapon and ammunition.
You can only switch weapons at the cart but if it gets hit it explodes.
This creates a balancing act of having it near enough to run back for a different weapon or more ammo but not to near so it doesn’t get looted of blown up. You obviously can’t take it up ladders or into ventilation shafts, meaning you have to fight your way back to where you left it with limited resources.You could have areas where the trolley wheel lock engages, halving movement speed.
