Help me with my game concept.

[KyunKun]

So I'm currently in the conceptual phase of my first game and wanted some input to help me make some decisions. I'd start a poll here, but it's big, and also, I'm posting this poll on several other places, so I decided to make a unified poll. Please visit the following poll and help me out.

In overly simplistic terms, if you could play a game on any franchise/Universe, what would that be? Anime, Movies, Video Games, all are welcome, or write your own I might not have thought of. Choose as many as you want.

Poll Is here:

Mod Edit: Link has been vetted safe and is a Google Doc.​

I'll be using HS2 Studio and Renpy. However, it's not quite a parody. Nothing is set in stone right now, but essentially your character will have an ability (part of the story plot so I can't explain much here yet) that allows him to visit his favorite fantasy/pop culture universe and meet people there. Through interactions with them, you will progress in your own story. I intend to keep it simple and pretty linear for now and the themes and topics will depend on the universe you visit. If you go to the Tekken world instead of the Pokemon world, I don't intend you to be interested in a story to grow through the power of friendship, for example. Each universe will be faithful to its lore and the story will reflect it

Small update, So far, Sailor Moon, How to Train Your Dragon, Hercules, Bioshock, and Cyberpunk are in the lead.

Make sure to cast your votes

Sounds like you're planning a parody-game.
Renpy? Twine?
Best of luck

Honestly I would love an ahsoka season one trainer style game. She was a good friend

I always thought a Star Trek AVN would be great. I am no game dev or author but a guy that discovers one of Reginald Barclay's racier holodeck programs decides it needs a little more spice by using the real physical data of his crew.

He ends up going through a lot such as going to the Orion Syndicate and Ferengi just to get genuine stealth med scanning and holo development equipment.

Along the way he gets some real action with various alien species along with the holo kind.

In the end holo just isn't enough so he re-engineers the particle synthesis that Voyager encounters in the delta quadrant when a alien tries to lure Voyager to the Borg with a fake USS Dauntless. Thus lust furthers technology for the better of all

This is interesting. Wonder why I didn't include Star Trek on the list. Hope you did....

This is very possiible in my Story. And I have her (and others) in the wings if I go that way.

Horizon Zero Dawn setting could have potential, just preferably with male protagonist

Oh man Aloy. Yep. I do remember a different model for her in extremely early promo stuff but I can't find it anywhere. She just looked a Lil prettier... Probably lil too pretty if you know what I mean and she was changed.

 

[uberblack]

Yes. There aren't many really good post-apocalyptic games.

Maybe, but as far as I know her visuals are based on real woman with 3D motion capture technology.

That's a great one, sadly dev doesn't have much time for it with his real job "getting in the way"
Just recently I played update to it, sadly no twins in that one...
