A VR game which is basically a room with a plethora of board games. So you can play with people from all over the world. Come on Hasbro make it happen
The retooled Joust game I never get around to working on.
I would love something like Hellgate London (I think that was its name?), doesn't have to have the same premise, but needs to be a lot less buggy, no p2w, and more production value
A game with the time travel self interaction and self saving mechanics of Super Time Force Ultra. Doesn't have to be a side scroller. Bonus points for getting multiplayer to work reasonably. I've been theorycrafting ways to do multiplayer like this for years (and ultimately most of it feels disjointed in theory so IDK). I've only seen one super low budget game using this mechanic (as a main game mechanic, not a side puzzle like the Ratchet and Clank time puzzles) and the reviews weren't great.
I've been considering mixing it with 5D Chess with Time Travel mechanics and Advance Wars gameplay as a proof of concept and see how far that gets me... But I don't have time or energy to work on it after work...
I'd like to play a video game that would level up my real life stats.
I would love a game with a timeloop built into the discovery, combat, and storytelling mechanics, a la Deathloop and Prey: Mooncrash, but instead of a first person shooter about murder, make it an isometric heist game that doesnβt hold your hand. You gather clues and tips and tricks through each loop and through exploration, until you build a final plan of attack to end the loop.
Deathloopβs biggest flaw was not playing into the fact that it was, at its core, a puzzle game. The objective markers and notes kind of ruined the climax of the game for me. Absolutely incredible otherwise.
Some sort of magical game that people with radically different skill levels can enjoy together. I tried to get my friend to play nioh2, but she just doesn't have the practice to be any good at it yet. If we put in 100 hours she'd get competent, but that's a big investment. I want someone to figure out a way that I can play like Nioh2, and my friend can play like Bejeweled, but we're doing it together and it's fun for both of us.
Baldurs Gate 3, but set in the Red Rising universe.
A modern remake of Saints Row 2. But, since Volition shutdown itβs no longer possible.
I'd love a VRMMO like an actual Sword Art Online. Of course, I don't even have a VR system. However, if there were a nice VRMMO, I'd shell out the money for one.
...and how much would you pay for a pre-order special edition that came with a free in game hat for your character?
3D wizard fighting game
A rapid fire, action point based tactical MMORPG.
Like 5 to 10 seconds for a turn, everyone lodges their turns and over the next 10 seconds the characters play out their actions with complex complications for unplanned conflicts. Like a guy running though someone elses thrown grenade or two guys trying to run through the same doorway.
I wanna build a fort and shoot at zombies on my phone with friends and can't seem to find someone to take my money.
Oh my.
If I collected all the visual information I saw in some dreams I have had about video games...would I be rich now?
