yes. i revoke the idea.

A murder mystery.

[ncba93ivyase]

A murder mystery.

also note: this isn't "post the craziest plot ideas you can think of that should be a game", but "unique gameplay concepts that could be developed in a couple days and possibly have a really simple and silly story"

the story shouldn't even exist really

what i want is a description of how the game is played

Too lazy to read and type on phone.
Will talk later at home.

a roguelke where you are in a desert and your only goal is the reach a lake at the base of a mountain that's 30 miles away, in real time
so basically journey combined with desert bus and zelda

i wanna make games :'(

[strongbad]

roguelike-esque physics based platformer
game would be up the n+ or super meat boy alley but the levels would consist of randomly generated chunks that had possible but challenging situations
you could even get powerups or something that would make your jump better or give you teleport abilities or something like that
but when you die you're dead forever and have to start over

i would play this game a lot

this isn't a "simple game," but one idea for a game i've always thought would be really great is a sort of cross between yume nikki and earthbound. an rpg based around the idea of exploring your character's unconscious. maybe it could be in order to find answers to solve a mystery of some sort - maybe you could actually delve into OTHER characters' unconscious as well. but the central idea that always stuck was a character exploring his/her own unconscious. not necessarily with dreams.

obviously people would say it's yume nikki as an rpg but as far as i know it hasn't really been done

oh, and as for battle style, i'd always imagined it being standard turn-based, not necessarily as heavily menu-based as mother/dragon quest though

yeah i don't have any ideas for any particularly small games lol

you know i might actually be able to compose on lsdj on my phone and just send you the save file and have you export the tracks yourself

i can contribute!

i'm gettin a brainwave for a music-based fighter-ish game hang on let me think about it some more

You should make a game like the Lucid Dream Simulator but for the cellphone.

Yeah I know semi roguelikes are kind of trendy right now but I think this is a sick idea that hasn't been explored. I should learn to code...
