on Mar 7th, 2007My Game Ideas
I just released a new site called My Game Ideas. Here’s the little summary/description of the site…
If you’re a gamer, I’m sure you’ve had many ideas for games before. Maybe it’s just a minor change to an existing game, or an entire new concept for a game. It seems these days there’s less creativity in game design. We are overloaded with sequels and poor clones. Most of us are not game designers though, so our “perfect game” will most likely never get made. This site is for publishing your game ideas for the world to see. Maybe someday a game designer will be inspired by something they read on this site, and we can be blessed with something creative and original for a change. That would be cool.
Users can submit their ideas, as well as rate and comment on ideas. The site is build using Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, YahooUI Grids(for the layout), and Prototype.js for the ajax. It’s roughly 1000 lines of core code.. another 1000 of test code.
Let me know what you think!
Great idea! I started up a game idea blog a few months back as well. I love the concept of getting ideas out there, in the open, instead of locked up in people’s heads. Let the ideas roam and maybe, hopefully, they’ll find a home.
Nice work!
I have come up with a super duper game idea that is in the works, and I have told a few people on ps3 community. It’s called Peak, a mountain climbing simulator that gives players who love controller precision, absolute danger, heights, and spoofy mishaps not offered in other games( that we all wish they had). If interested in knowing more, please reply……I’ll be waiting.
