That's right folks, 2 months after the contest started I've *finally* been able to decide on an idea that I like for my entry. I've managed to incorporate all 4 elements without it sounding dodgy with a surprise (altough probably very predictable [smile]) plot twist half way through the game. It's going to be a top-down action game with 3D graphics (but 2D gameplay) where you control a team of 4 commando's. Each team member has different weapons and attributes, you can swap between them with the AI controlling the other 3. I'm also wanting to include vehicle's and a physics engine (probably Novodex) if I have time.
I don't want to say too much yet since there's still a lot of work left in sorting out the finer details, but the general concept is there. As a sort things out and start development you can expect to see updates on my progress here.
I may also consider teaming up with someone for artwork....but that'll come later....
