Do you have any good Ideas for games or are working on a game? Please tell a little about your idea for a game/game project. Here are 2 of my games which I think I might get groups to help me with:

Metroid Prime: Source - An Online Multiplayer version of Metroid Proime for GC with the Metroid Prime UI and all of the visors to improve gameplay. This game would obviously be created on the Source engine which was the engine used in games such as Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike Source.

My next game has no title yet. I can't think of a good title yet. But my idea is a Smash Bros-esque game where you create your own characters and you would get to customize you character to your liking with with around 500 Basic Moves and around 100 different Special Moves and all different clothes, weapons, and if you would get to a far enogh level in the game (The game would have an EXP/Leveling system), you could unlock different types of characters (You would only be able to make Human Characters at the beginning).

So, do you have any game ideas/game projects?

Hmmm... well mine used to be an idea for a book i wanted to read...but i figure it would give a bad name for gamers.

about a developer that gets pushed into the game he was developing .. so basically likea horror survival game, with a spoiler ending...well a rather interesting one.

with co-op online play where you and 3 others canbattle the monsters in the developed game.

The ending would be that, the developer (on the single player) would really be a schizo who was actually doing all the killing all of his friends when he was.

If this doesnt make sense i could go into detail and all... but ill leave it at that.

I have way too many to count. Be careful what you do say, though...one of my teachers let blab a high concept statement and someone he knows (and is now legally unallowed to name) stole his idea and is making thousands off of it.

I seriously doubt it. Ideas lack intrinsic value, and if this other guy actually managed to get something out of a statement like that, he's making money off work and interpretation, not the idea itself.

From what I gather, it was just a webgame, but a really good one. When it's something that simple, a written high concept statement is all you need to go on to create.

Isecondthis,'ideas'arepointless for the most part, they can only carry youso far as the blurb on the back of the box. Everything else involves labor and failure, both of which are inevitable and must be delt with by the developer (though exerience may make these aspects easier).
