A game with the time travel self interaction and self saving mechanics of Super Time Force Ultra. Doesn't have to be a side scroller. Bonus points for getting multiplayer to work reasonably. I've been theorycrafting ways to do multiplayer like this for years (and ultimately most of it feels disjointed in theory so IDK). I've only seen one super low budget game using this mechanic (as a main game mechanic, not a side puzzle like the Ratchet and Clank time puzzles) and the reviews weren't great.

I've been considering mixing it with 5D Chess with Time Travel mechanics and Advance Wars gameplay as a proof of concept and see how far that gets me... But I don't have time or energy to work on it after work...

An evolution game like Ancestors except it forces you to migrate due to climate events

Ultima Online with combat mechanics of soulslike.

Roguelike exploration without the endless list of items and far less scaling.

Like if Valheim complexity ended at Dark Forest, but had the same variety of areas to explore. Honestly Valheim with less scaling.

I'd like to play a video game that would level up my real life stats.

A good sandbox MMO that people actually play, and doesn't have a high barrier of entry.

A VR game which is basically a room with a plethora of board games. So you can play with people from all over the world. Come on Hasbro make it happen

In The Valley of Gods... from the developers of Firewatch, too bad they've been acquired by Valve and they abandoned the project

...and how much would you pay for a pre-order special edition that came with a free in game hat for your character?

Kingdom hearts style combat with co-op campaign

No man's sky but focused as a shooter mmo. Imagine clans of 100+ people fighting on planet and in space to control galaxies

3D wizard fighting game

As a kid who loved Kingdom Hearts and The Matrix, I wanted to make a game where you could choose from the standard Magic, swords, guns, OR you could whip out your keyboard and hack the game.

It's not nearly as exciting in retrospect, as it's basically just Skyrim with console commands, but the thread brought it back to me so I thought I'd share. It felt like a cool idea in 2002, though.

I've also been writing and designing a Pokemon game in my head for the last 25 years, but I'm keeping that one closer to my chest even though there's no universe where that happens.

Oh my.

If I collected all the visual information I saw in some dreams I have had about video games...would I be rich now?

I wanna build a fort and shoot at zombies on my phone with friends and can't seem to find someone to take my money.

A civil war simulator, where you make your policies to appeal to as much of the population as you can so they would support you and fight for your side, and if you fail to secure significant militant support you get couped or defeated.

StarSector but it's an MMORPG

I think a John Wick game with a similar gameplay style as Rise Son of Rome would be killer.

spider solitaire first person rpg with klondike elements, customization cards, and a romance spider option

A game where the main missions feel like the early Silent Hill games but there are parts between where you explore a densely populated urban area like Cyberpunk 2077
