Had to make the difficult decision today to lay off the entire studio after play testers said our game was ‘too good’. Will start again with a new team to help avoid creating a mainstream game.
Imagine a game where instead of a death screen, you receive apologetic messages from the developer followed by sincere comforting words of encouragement
Why do fans of music get the ability to shuffle but not gamers? Imagine a console that allowed you to shuffle between random levels based on the games you have installed
Imagine a game where you have 3 save files, yet each one has you play from a different perspective where you can directly affect the world within the other 2 save files
Announcement. My new game will be delayed by 9 months to add polish. This new groundbreaking feature allows the player to polish absolutely anything in a world that is continuously gathering dirt in real-time.
Imagine a game where you plant a seed to move a robot. Want to turn it clockwise? Plant a clockwise seed, wait a few days and feed the robot the produce. The more it eats, the more it rotates.
Imagine a game where it’s game over if you cheat. Enemies know this and will try to give away obvious hints to puzzles, kill them before they provide the solution
Game designers have it easy these days, back in the day there was no YouTube or patreon etc. We had to figure it all out with Lego, a calculator and a bag of frozen peas.
I once offered to redesign Milo for Tesla for free. The idea was that Milo would become increasingly irritable during the journey forcing you to find ways to keep him quiet
Imagine a game where you are in a 5 year queue and nobody knows what the queue is for. The more you play the more you can push ahead of those not currently playing the game.
Imagine a game that allows the player to decide when the game ends. Now imagine in addition to that, if the game also allowed the player to decide when the game begins
