What game would you like to create ? :)

Hmm... Lately I have been getting REALLY weird and non-commercial game ideas which would be really fun to play still. We all know, that when we are creating the game, one thing makes our game boring... Money. Money guides us to create a game that can be sold for other people, and it''s kind of witch circle, you create "boring" games and people buy maybe buy that game and start complaining "why do you create so boring game, after all this is same old crap". Some times I''m just getting really weird ideas, for freeware game example. One idea is about creating game where you have to make THE BEST fireworks in town for newyears party :D You would have to get fireworks, set some attributes for every firework, etc. which angle do you shoot it and so on, and when the midnight comes, you HAVE TO shoot those rockets, and then public gives opinion about your work This is actually hard to create, but who cares, it''s fun idea ! Another idea is Arcade Hall simulation, where you have to buy arcade games, create working arcade hall with cool stuff, and so on. (again, problem is that there is no point playing it, so player should actually just play against the time... and try to get himself for 1 in top 10 - top 20 list) Have you had some really weird, but probaply fun idea that you would like to create, EVEN if you don''t have any idea how to create it ? Tell it :D

Freeze-Tag! FPS without blood and guts! guns slow enemies down until they are stuck. friendly-fire un-freezes. more powerful guns freeze faster or have other side-effects (blinding, loss of control, kickback effects). one group is already working on a mod for descent3. as soon as i get my helf-life CD replacement back from sierra, i may try making a freeze-tag mod for half-life, then my own game when i get some 3d programming knowledge

Hey, I had that idea for a "hackers" game once... I even started doing it in QBASIC a few years ago, but it didn''t go anywhere (it was text based...). I''ve always liked turned based strategy so I''ve wanted to make turn-based strategy game one day...
