Post a random concept for a game

Working Hard at Hardly Working

You work a desk monkey office job, but you want to see how long you can go without actually doing any work before you get fired. You can also lose the game by not doing enough fun stuff around the office that your character quits. Every morning begins with a stealth game as you sneak in late. Throughout the day, you have to find fun things to do that either can be passed off as work (like team building exercises) or can at least build up enough friendship with people that will get your back if anyone talks about firing you. You also have to find ways to avoid "downer" colleagues that like to talk about work, or how they "have a bad case of the Mondays!" It's like Office Space, the game.

They Walk Among Us

This is a multiplayer game. One person is a vampire, the other is a vampire slayer. You are both in a town full of people and neither of you know where your human appointment is. They could be anyone and the role of vampire & vampire slayer are randomly assigned to a villager at the start of the game. The vampire slayer has one stake to kill the vampire, but if he chooses correctly, he murders an innocent and looses. If the vampire figures out who the hunter is, he can head to the mountains and send his wolves (the children of the night) to attack the hunter. The gameplay is all about trying to blend in with the NPCs. The game might also allow other NPCs to be controlled by humans to make things even more confusing for the vampire hunter.

^That looks similar to one of the multiplayer modes of Assasin's Creed, AFAIK.

Out of Control

One day Jack wakes up and finds that he can talk, but he cannot control his body. That's now being done by you, the player. Jack is aware that he is not in control and it is freaking him out. He can't decide if it's better to just go with it so as to not sound strange to people in his world, try to reason with the whatever unseen force is controlling him, attempt to gain control of his own body again, or something else entirely. As a player, Jack's destiny is in your hands. Perhaps your guiding hand will give him the courage he needs, or perhaps you will torment him or get him into more trouble than he can handle. It's up to you in this 4th wall breaking adventure.

A game for Wii U where the person with the GamePad is the Dungeon Keeper, and people with the Wii Motes play like the Pikmin game in Nintendoland, so they're combat is simple, like 1 to use a Potion, and 2 to attack. The players get Exp from killing monsters the Dungeon Keeper spawns in (away from players) with coins. The Dungeon Keeper gets coins from killing players or having them run into traps. I can't think past that when it comes to getting coins, but I was thinking Dungeon Keeper wins when all players are dead, and players win by collecting artifacts, which get harder to collect from the Dungeon Keeper buying higher level monsters.

A game with a Kinect camera that has quick time events where you have to make faces that show your emotion fits what the main character is feeling.

"Aeris has died. Please face the sensor and cry to continue."

[REPO Man]

A Power Rangers game that plays like Super Robot Taisen. The story mode would have you re-enacting episodes. The free-play mode would allow you to make your own teams of Rangers and Villains, once you unlock them in Story Mode. It would initially include roughly the first quarter of MMPR, Season One, but later DLC would add new content, even scenarios based on VR Troopers and Big Bad Beetleborgs, including a proper "series finale" set of scenarios. And with Free-Play, you can make a team of Rangers, Troopers and Beetleborgs and pit them against villains from all three series!

I posted this a while back in the Random Gaming Thoughts thread one morning, after a night of almost no sleep, so this was a half idea half daydream Figure I may as well post it here.

It would be awesome to make a 2p simultaneous split-screen shmup, where one player is flying through the air shooting down craft, and another player is running along the ground shooting down tanks.

The air craft would be vulnerable to tank fire, and the player on the ground, instead of dodging ship or tank bullets, would instead have to dodge the debris falling from the air battle. So, if the ground player slacked on tank kills, the air player would be overwhelmed by bullets, but if the air player killed too much, the ground player would be overwhelmed.

Wake Up Soldier!

This game starts out as a pretty standard, linear military shooter. As you get further in though, you start to unravel a mystery, which leads you to discover that you were actually brainwashed to be a soldier and don't have a clear memory of who you were before the military. Actually, there is a huge conspiracy that has many people brainwashed without their consent or knowledge and they are turned into soldiers to do the fighting of a secret political group. As you piece together the mystery, your goals change and you have to actually put down the gun and reclaim your life. The game becomes more of an open-world game as you discover your need for freedom and reclaimed identity.
