Greetings, GUN. I'm new to this site and am hopefully going to frequent it with miscellaneous posts.
But anyway, game ideas. By simple, I meant daaaaamn simple. Like Atari shit. I program with GameMaker, and I'd consider myself intermediate. That said, I haven't been coding all that much lately presumably because I've lost the joy of new, practical ideas. So, if anyone has ideas for a tiny game (and again, I mean like super tiny), please leave them here. I might even finish them and send them to you if I can.

Perhaps just a game where there's a moon-cycle and each night, you turn into a werewolf and you get to terrorize a village/city, depending on if you want it modern or not.

Make a Pokemon game-play Fallout themed game!

(yeah, I know this wont be an easy idea.)

*Seen from the same perspective as Pokemon.
*Gritty dark Fallout themed graphics in Pokemon style. ( 8/16 bit or whatever it is.)
*Combat menu like the one in Pokemon, only instead of picking pokemon's to fight for you, you pick from available weapons.
*Turn based ofc.
*Where you in a Pokemon game would encounter wild pokemons, now instead you encounter ghouls, zombies, wild dogs etc.
*Instead of collecting badges, you will gather territories.  To get in controll of a territory you would have to kill the former leader in a duel, ambush, smooth talking etc.
*Instead of poke centers you have trading centers, where traders and hunters gather to tell stories and trade. (kinda like in S.T.A.L.K.E.R where you got "safe sones".)
*You will ofc have a rival, just as in pokemon. The rival might be another gang, lets say, the ncr, that competes against you in conquering zones or something.
*Instead of an "elite four" you will in the end of the game meet a boss. Something like the Master from the original Fallout.

Ehrm, I wrote a bit more than I thought I would. Sorry for not keeping it simple. :P

Nah, it's fine. I might take a shot at it. What's the ultimate goal though? To annex Vegas like in Fallout New Vegas? Or Project Purity? This sounds cool though, I'll probably do it. Thanks

Edit: Yesterday, I made a post asking for simple game ideas. I got one for a Pokemon-style Fallout game. Turned based (obviously) and having Pokemon's combat mechanics, with the Pokemon you use being replaced with weapons you find. I really like this idea and would like some further input and ideas for the idea. I'll begin working on it once I've gathered a decent amount of ideas.
P.S. if you're artsy and would like to contribute I would appreciate Pokemon sprites reskinned for Fallout very much.

I merged this and your other topic together, and moved them to the correct area of the forums. Please be mindful of where you're posting when creating new topics.

Cool that you like the idea! :) I have no idea about what the goal should be tho. To unite all wastelanders against the retribution of the aliens form mothership zeta? Hahha:p

Good luck with your work anyhow. I would have helped you if I could, but I got no talent in any way considered artsy! :p

Make a 16 bit character who's sole responsibility in life is to go to the right. When you get to the end, there's a plot twist: he should have been going left the entire time.

Aww shit that's some deep story you got there, son. I'll consider it.
And before you ask, I am absolutely serious about that.

Maybe a man's inner discovery? A growing up tale about a man and his plank of wood?
