A few strange game ideas I had recently.

Posted by Powerful Kyurem on Dec. 1, 2013, 2:25 a.m.

Recently, I had some really unusual game ideas. I want to see what you guys think. (Be aware that these ideas are mine. They CANNOT be used taken without asking.)

Candy Crush/Bejewled style 2D platformer:

So, candy crush, bejewled (and lots of other match 3 games) have line busters, bombs, etc.

So, WHAT IF A GUY USED THEM TO FIGHT ENEMIES?

Like a space invaders style thing.

That got me thinking.

What if I were to, I don't know, make a 2D platform game (like the original mario games for you non-developers out there) where you can only attack by using line busters and bombs. The walls of a level would form one giant match 3 board. Different blocks could represent different things like water, ground, coins, etc. The player could fall through holes made by moves, so it could be used to move lower. On the same token, it could kill the player. Walls could also be busted out to form entrances to caves, hidden paths, etc.

Will add more later.

You know, rather than posting about your game ideas, you should consider making one of them and posting about it afterward.

64Digits has some general rules of etiquette, one of which is to aim for writing blogs that encourage meaningful discussion, rather than showing off random content, such as, for example, a list of ideas with no actual work behind them. Anyone can have an idea. Few people can actually follow through with it. And 64Digits is about people who follow through with things (or at least attempt to) rather than just talking about it. So maybe consider working on a game. You are more than welcome to show that off instead.

Since you're new and still trying to adjust, I'm just going to let you off with a warning. Please be more careful in the future. The blog-writing business around here will take some adjustment but make yourself comfortable and remember to post meaningful blogs.

Okay. Thanks.

The idea behind this was to mention some ideas that are just plain wierd. Weird, as in, not really something that would make much sense.

Also, since I assume you are a mod, how do I tell which user is a mod?

welcome to the site, leave your sanity in the red box by the door which may or may not have been knocked over, etc.

Colseed, please get your face out of the sanity box. That is not candy.

Really? It isn't that weird? Wow. I am shocked. I thought that one was just plain… Wrong. Like two things that should really not be mixed!

What sanity? I left that back in Smarty's office at the GMC.

(Smarty is the 'greeter'.)

Smarty…stole my greeting?

You were on the GMC? As a mod? What is your nick?

EDIT: It was mostly to share some potential laughs, and maybe some people would be inspired somehow.

Colseed: I believe the users would like their sanity's returned. Please vomit back up the candies, before you turn into an over-logical Vulcan.
