Today, the top 5 game ideas (all of these really popped into my head at some point) that I don’t picture myself prototyping any time soon.

5. Stare Into The Abyss

(…and the abyss stares back at you.) The first goal is to achieve victory. The second is to maintain your honor. But a series of increasingly dishonorable actions are available, that can help you achieve victory, but at what cost?

4. High School

Take Babylon 5: the CCG, but instead of alien races, the factions are cliques at a high school. Derailed when hours of searching couldn’t bring me anything closer to anything that resembles a logical win condition.

3. The Kreb Cycle

My mom wondered why I couldn’t make more educational games. I honestly devoted thought to how to make this anything more than competitive flash cards.

2. Seduction: The Card Game

I may eventually revisit the idea of a game where tempo and timing are everything. But theme-wise, I’ll stick to topics I know more about, like brain surgery and UFOs.

1. Struggle Against Ennui

I want to create this about as much as you want to play it.
