Request:Some Game Ideas With Constraints

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Request:Some Game Ideas With Constraints

Hi all,

I want to make a simple, quick to play, game or "mini" game with some constraints, listed
below, and was hoping, if people are willing, to get some ideas that might work with these
constraints.

Constraints:

2d playing field representing an interior whether it be a sci fi floorplan or a fantasy dungeon
or even a more contemporary setting - although graphically walls will not be visible only the
floor plan (although from a 3d perspective camera) and any objects/creatures/"things" that
'sit' on the playing field (whether they be people/animals/creatures/objects/keys/doors etc)
It is essential that the walls are not required to be modelled but should be implict by the design
of the 'floorplan'.

Line of sight/visibility/lighting & shadows should form an intrinsic part of the gameplay in some
manner with the preference being for a dimly lit environment, but not essential.

Gameplay should be short - possible to play sessions in a few minutes at a time (no more than
15).

Thanks,
Matt

A stealth shooter type game sounds ideally suited. You have to get through a level with lots of baddies with minimal weapons. If a baddie sees you it can attack or raise an alarm, but you can sneak up with a knife or silenced weapon.

A firefighting game, you play a firefighter who has to rush into a burning building to extinguish fires and rescue trapped people!!

It sounds like you want a full design document that can be implimented in this kind of game field.

I can write one for you.

Are you in any way against the idea of a tactical RPG? would you like it to be an action game of some kind?

I can easily write up a design document for you. But a decent design document is going to run you some money... not a lot tho.. I enjoy designing. I just can't give great game ideas away... How does 10$ a page sound :P hehe

Yeah... I know.. cheap. What can I say. for a small game, that might mean 50-100$...

Its when you need a 150 page monster game designed that it starts to cost real money.... but 1500$ is nothing compared to the other costs...

As always. If you aren't satisfied with my work. Don't use it and don't pay me.

drop me an e-mail with more details if you are interested...

Same goes for anyone else.

one small, and one bigger...

DampeS8N - I'm not after a design document just some general ideas like those mentioned by Nomen luni and Jams.

Thanks Nomen luni and Jams.
