Topic: If you could create a video game, what would it be?

It'd be called "Racing Legends". It'd be a racing simulator based on classic car racing. It'd have 480 cars and 75 courses. The cars will span 93 years, and will be from seven different countries.

It would be called "Adventure of the candy cane". It would be a platformer. Where're Chocobo was trying to eat you, a candy cane, and you had to escape.

It would be awesome because it would be impossible to win. Chocobo always gets the candy cane.

It's the game that I'm working on right now. A simplified RTS with some small RPG elements.

It would be called "Stop StarFox from posting new threads on the forum". There would be 20 character types and 28376 different weapons to use against the villain. It will also be the most popular MMO in the world, translated into 27 different languages, allowing thousands of people to simultaneously and strategically prevent him from posting new threads.

GOTY??

GOTD

I thought this thread a had been done already.

Anyway, this is a question every NL veteran knows not to ask me.

I'd collaborate with pixelman on an 8-bit North by Northwest game with the film's entire score redone in chiptune.

It would never be completed though...

If I could create a game I would call it "Manic Sorceress". A classic platform game based on Bug-Byte's "Manic Miner".

The main character would look like this:

And it would be pretty damn hard so nobody likes it.

Bukkake Attack. A team based FPS of sorts, if you get my drift. _{and count yourself lucky if you don't}

Awesome.

Holy crap, you're a genius. I'm calling MGM about publishing rights right now.

Seriously, that'd be the most epic win game ever. If my RPG engine ever matures... Ah well, I can dream, can't I?

Haha, dude, I'm dead serious. I've thought about it before, and I'd be glad to help out in terms of script / dialogue and...uh...maybe that's it, since I don't have any other talent, game-design-wise. Maybe rough level design or something.

We obviously couldn't make any money off of it, but do you think anyone would actually shut it down? It might be one of those projects they just let slide...

...hmm.

GOTM

I would create "The Adventures of Failman" We play as heroes and studs that get the girl, but what about that guy who always comes up a little bit short? You can hit on women and fail to get dates. Try to save the damsel in distress, but show up just a few seconds too late. Wouldn't it be exciting to get to the final boss and constantly die for no reason when he just has a shred of life left? You also score massive points the longer you live in your parents basement while not getting a job.

@Vay: Now that's an autobiography (of yours) I would play

Mine would be an RPG similar to Earthbound, only the protagonist has to go to high school. Simple math problems and bullies would be the enemies and tests would be bosses. Don't worry about the problems, though, as they will be fun to solve (maybe hacking and slashing the numbers with a pencil to physically "defeat" the problem). The final boss would be the final exam. You can choose to be a nerd, jock, bully, goth, or cheerleader. This will be edgy and try not to be too influenced on Bully or that one campy high school DSiWare game. Just a suggestion.

A game were you just sit down but the graphics are going to be the best. (a person at my school a few years ago said hed play it if it had the Very Best Graphics )

If I made a game, it would be "an open world Action/FPS/RPG/JRPG//Puzzle/Platformer with a non-linear storyline spanning 46 possible endings and 500 hours worth of gameplay. Its entirely drawn and cel-shaded".

Or something.
