Title: Got an idea for a game
Post by: The One on January 24, 2011, 08:42:42 am

Hey hey, I've got an idea for a game and I'd like to hear your thoughts about it.

Okay,

So you're a shark, and you need to ram lantern poles until trains fall out. You can then board these trains to the planet of sharks, where you have to dig a hole in the ground until you find clouds. you can use these clouds to fight the evil wizard who plans to kill all the sharks by hitting them with baseball trees.

what do you think??

I don't think there are enough sharks in this game.

This game makes too much sense. There needs to be some nonsensical elements as well.

reminded me of the 90's

I think this is a good staple of 90's stuff 'compartmentalize various things you like (e.g. pizza and rollerskates) into the same space where only a limited amount of things matter (e.g. there are pizza and rollerskates but no pizza cutters or helmets (or something))

I think there was a Chuck-E-Cheese's commercial like that, but the kid wore a helmet.

Now how would you  slice the pizza?
 *Imagines kids cutting giant pizzas by skating across them wearing pizza cutter-equipped rollerblades* LOL
You might as well go for it- at the least it'll be amusing to see you attempt to pull it off in a believable way. .  . definitely a platformer, though.

haha that was more vague than I thought. Just think of it like all kid's shows kind of have the lives of adults way in the background/vague but in the 90's especially it was like ONLY FOOD IS PIZZA AND HAMBURGERS kind of like Earthbound post offices/gas stations/banks don't even exist because it is not important enough to kids. (Dad is bank for all intents and purposes and literally too) Also if The Office had been made in the 90's it would've focused way too much on grown-up office things omg aren't water coolers awesome?? This might've been kind of an 80's thing too I was a FETUS then though

That's all fine and dandy but how the hell is a shark supposed to dig a hole without a cheese burger?
