DAILY REMINDER YOU ARE ONCE A NODEV YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A NODEV

YOU CAN'T GET OUT OF THIS ETERNAL IDEAGUY HELL

>Type:

2D platformer, a la the early Vanias, only less claustrophobic.

>Feel/Inspirations:

It's like Mega Man meets Castlevania, with an industrial techno soundtrack. Inspirations are the early platformers I played, specifically Astyanax, 8Eyes, and (dare I mention it) Sonic 2 (The only one I had on Genesis back in the day.) Also a bunch of 80's-90's anime.

>Description:

My idea is for a platformer where you, the player, grow progressively more powerful as the game goes on. Every boss you defeat permanently modifies your abilities in some minor (or major) way. By the final level, you are akin to a Death God, slaughtering your way through the armies your foes have assembled.

>In-depth:

The setting I have in my head is a post-humanity future. You are an android who activates on top of a roof, surrounded by broken machinery. The game's final boss is flying over you. He says something about taking over the world, and flies away. He's arrayed his generals against you, 11 in all. He's designated Control Unit 13, they are Control Units 2-12. There are twelve levels in all, each one ends with a boss battle (1-11 generals, 12 big baddie himself). You start out with only a basic attack, a punch. The damage it does is low, and it is a slow attack. Each Control Unit you defeat gives you an upgrade (Some upgrades I am adamant about are in permanents)

The point of the game isn't a simple victory. As you progress, the upgrades change the playstyle drastically. Within a few levels, the most basic enemies can't even harm you unless you are very, very stupid. With each upgrade, you move farther and farther away from the basic humanoid form you started with, until in the final level you resemble nothing so much as a robotic angel of death, with rocket wings, a laser sword, and a glowing aura. You even gain an overclock mode, which grants you a temporary bullet time effect.

The world in which this game takes place is controlled by robots. To the player, it would resemble human society run amok. Each level Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

A dating sim / RPG game where you play as a woman, and must improve yourself enough for men to consider you over robot waifus.

You must improve stats such as beauty, loyality, charm, intelligence, health, and various skills like cooking and cleaning and other stuff that robowaifus do.

If you score yourself a man, you get to do things in their house and use some of their money. And of course, the better man you get, the better the house will be. But if you abuse their stuff, your "value" will lower and they may dump you for a robowaifu.

I NEED YOUR ENLIGHTENING INSIGHT!

calling all the edge masters!

i am bored of this casual shit that plauged the game industry… even manhunt & postal are shit!

agree? then what do? i want to design a retro-pixel-like game (cuz fuck you retro rockz lol), and to be named "most fucked game ever existed!" in short MFUGEE: the happening lol

requirements:

1.every given idea will be blended to the game, DUBS-ONLY ARE CONSIDERED.

1.2.if an idea gets three shout-outs, its also considered.

3. cocaine helps flurish the mind.

i am putting my whole life from this point on on creating this game… any edge master willing to help the cause?

pic showing how the art will be.

GO!

Political simulator

Democracy 3 and that ol' game Hidden Agenda

Be the next Stalin.

>In depth

You would play a member of the Soviet Central Committee circa 1921 through 1952. You would play as a member of a faction - either Orthodox Marxist, Authoritarian, Syndicalist or Dem. Soc.

You would start at the committee and work your way up through bribes, (metaphorical) dick sucking and intimidation to the Politburo. This part would have a time limit of two in-game years.

At the Politburo stage you vie for influence and popularity among the populace by making proposals, making speeches, dirty tricks etc. and would have to appeal to various other sections of the government such as the Cheka with the ultimate goal of succeeding Lenin. Once Lenin dies there is a power struggle. If no faction has more than 50% popularity/strength then the power struggle continues. Eventually the favorite of the Cheka is installed.

From there the player must lead the country compromising to stay in power with the opposition factions, trying to build a dictatorship or democracy and trying not to be killed or overthrown.

Historical events would happen influenced by decisions you take. Supporting the German communists by providing arms etc. may create a civil war in Germany, World War II may break out, the Soviets may discover the Atomic bomb etc.

>permanent

It being largely a political game.

>Help & brainstorming

I am inept at computers because I am a bloody moron.

I'm working on a small text sex game in javascript.

I've done basic code, what really is stumping me are ideas for events and writing them.

I would love some suggestions of events from you idea guys. Already written events would be great too.

You're a 16 to 18 years old girl, that's the only guideline. Please no furry or futas.

You can go as wild as you want with special cases and various choices, I can probably code it.

Thanks guys

3-Dimension isn't a typical goal oriented game with monsters and items, but more of an art project. The player can, however interact with objects which will show a text description, There may be more features in the future, leaning towards a puzzle experience.

It is a completely 3D engine that takes you through various scenes or maps, all rendered in low-poly 3D, supporting sprites, texture and primitive lighting effects like those found in Quake 1, Deathtrap Dungeon, Silent Hill and numerous early PlayStation games. If you have played LSD: Dream Emulator, you will see where I am going with this. Music, sounds and effects will also play an important role in bringing the atmosphere to the front.

All these places are basically from my imagination and/or feels. Inspirations come from the Holders and Gideon Keys series, various old games, nostalgic feels of the 90's, shattered dreams etc

Maps names I have thought of so far – I am working on the details of each map. Not all of them have to be used, but there may be more.

"The Memorial Site"

"The Dead Girlfriend"

"Utter Darkness"

"The Sealed Fate"

"The Dreadful Feeling"

"The Occult Club"

"The Day"

"The Street"

"Aloner"

"3 Month Revolution"

"Ghost In The Shell"

"Illusion"

"Vanishing Point"

"Peace Of Mind"

"Cold and Wet"

"The Beach"

If you saw It Follows, basically that.

A small neighbourhood level where something will follow you, and just walk to you until it catches up and kills you. In VR this would be pretty mortifying. Start a person off in a chair with something approaching and they gotta get themselves out.

Bonus: instead of just a short mini-game type thing it could be combined into a waifu-sim / GTA type thing with pedestrians where it'll change forms, randomly follow and not, you can run away to buy time, etc. And you have to try and get yourself laid so it'll move on.

eh? anyone wanna make this with me in UE4?

Have you taken the brown pill yet, mateys?

it's a tough pill to swallow! The brown pill was founded in 1999 by Sir Reginald Brownpill, who presents and narrates the attached video.

Forget red and blue pills, brown pills are the way of the future.

Video related. Please leave your questions, comments, and concerns below about this radical new paradigm of thinking!

Swallow the brown pill today! Red pills are for fedora fucking wearing faggots, blue pills are for the ignorant masses. Ignore the other le epin /pol/ maymays, this one is the readl deal.364

Hello /ideaguy/. I have an idea for a game and I pretty much know what I want to make but I'm having trouble deciding whether or not to use an engine like Game Maker or to lrn2code, not to mention if I should try doing my own spritework (I'm no artist).

The game is going to be a farming simulator a la Harvest Moon. I've always loved the Harvest Moon games but I often felt they were too shallow, so I really want to add a bit more depth to the game, especially to the farming. I thought maybe toying with an actual plot for a change might be cool too so I'm drafting up a mystery plot.

Long story short The Boy receives a letter in the mail addressed to him by his father, written seven years ago, which contains a copy of the deed to his farm. The Boy travels to Garner Village to take a look and quickly learns from the mayor that the farm is involved in a giant legal mess; nobody owns the land and merely stepping on the property is grounds for an immediate arrest. The Boy tries to explain the situation when The Snob shows up, announcing that his mother left him the farm in her will (no they're not long-lost brothers). County officials are called in and decide upon the Homestead Solution: whoever can prove they deserve the farm will get to keep it. In the meantime the farm is yours to use, but you have only three years to build it up or else you'll have to surrender the farm.

You can end the main plot in one of two ways. One, the Homestead Solution: make the farm great. The other way involves a mystery plot revealing that The Snob's mother coerced your father into marrying her late into his life so she could take the farm when he dies. The passing of ownership from husband to wife is deemed illegitimate and you can keep the farm.

In order to differentiate the game from Harvest Moon proper (perhaps I'll sell it somewhere down the road) I want the complexity and customizability of your farm to really stand out. Many of the later games offer a lot of content and customization but there's usually not enough depth to it. There's frequently not a lot of crops, and the only thing that can be grown year-round is usually grass. I don't believe there's ever been wheat, sugar cane, or anything like thPost too long.
