I always wanted a game were it was a sandbox game and you chose your job, and worked to get promoted. Sure you could go on a killing spree, but if your a vice president of a company well... you'd get fired and the security would arrest you. You could secretly kill and hide bodies, but the more you kill the more depressed and guilty you feel. Kill enough people and your character might have a mental breakdown killing himself.

Oh, I remembered the idea that I actually attempted to make.
There is a huge space battle with lasers. You are a laser, but you want to live out your life so you must dodge space ships.

A memorization game where you play a short level, then travel back in time to the start of the level. If you don't play it exactly like you did the first time, then this leads to a chain of events in which time travel is never invented/your birth never happened/you died early in life and you suddenly cease to exist as well. But maybe, there are certain specific conditions in which you can time travel for the good of yourself and humanity without screwing everything up...

Protip: The original tabletop RPG, the one where stealing, murdering and using others slowly turns you into a monster, not the videogame where I killed 500 people and still kept my humanity maxed. :lol:

The game looks interesting, but not quite what I meant, I was thinking something more GTA esque,and it would have a similar mechanic to ZombiU when it comes to dying, you would get a new character. But the only way to get your weapons back is if you beat the police to the scene wearing a mask (don't want people to see you loot a dead man's body) and run, or shott the cops and loot everthing.

From The Heavens Above

Gods and angels have returned to the planet Earth... or have they? Conspiracy theorists claim that the returned Gods are not our benevolent (and vengeful) creators that have returned, but rather an alien race that has studied our mythologies from afar and are now using our most sacred beliefs to manipulate humans to willingly surrender their planet and turn against each other. Where will you side in this epic battle? Do you have faith in the Gods and plan to help shepard in a new era, or will you rise up against what might be alien overlords? What if you're wrong?

(This will basically have two games. When you start a new game, it randomly decides if the returned Gods are actually gods or impostor space aliens. You will either be a hero or villain based on your assumptions.)

Culture Shock

Games can take us to bizarre worlds, but I don't feel like anything really takes us to a bizarre culture. In Culture Shock, a science experiment gone wrong leads you through a dimensional portal that drops you into an alternate version of humanity with no way of returning, so you are forced to fit in. People greet one another by licking each others faces. Displaying your children in public is shameful. It is bad manners to stare towards the doors in an elevator. Stylized eyebrows are in fashion. If you go 5 miles under the speed limit for over 5 seconds, other drivers have the right to push you off the road. Having more than $100,000 dollars is punishable by death. You figure out the rules of this society by observation and trial and error, but if you make too many mistakes you may be ostracized, businesses will refuse you service, and you might even end up in jail or killed. The objective is to make friends, keep a job, and develop your polygamist family so that you can live happily ever after in this brave new world without anyone figuring out you are from another dimension (which is, of course, illegal).

Monster Trainer

A game where you use the principles of operant conditioning and clicker training to capture monsters in the wild, train them back at your ranch, and then use their unique abilities to find more monsters and ultimately collect enough to take over Manhattan. You have to train new abilities to solve specific puzzles.
