HOW ON EARTH AM I MEANT TO THINK OF ANY IDEAS FOR THIS SHITE PROMPT AND WHO THE HELL SELECTED IT IN THE POLL> IT WAS THE WORST THEME THERE, THEY ARE ALL GONNA BE AMONG US,    PAPERS PLEASE AND THATS NOT MY NEIGHBOUR CLONES, I WANT TO BE ORIGINAL BUT ITS BLOODY WELL HARD. IM ONLY GOOD AT MAKING FAST PACED MOVEMENT SHOOTERS OR RPGS HOW AM I MEANT TO DO WELL FOR THIS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IM GOINGGGG INSANE

you don't have to be fully original, you can steal an idea but not fully copy and paste a game, and i feel like you can make a trust no one rpg

i suppose but in 3 days to make a whole rpg, as im going on holiday in 3 days, i find it lowk impossible

Yeah it is really hard in that situation, but another tip fromthe brackeys "how to jam video" was that "take your idea and now divide it by one and add a couple zeros to that" and i think thats a really simple but also really good help for me and i think for a lot of people

okay i came up with two ideas earlier today but i came up with a new one involving vampires and humans, and how u have to hunt for them in public with a silver gun. it will also be a movement shooter. its so ass hopefully i can come up with a better one

hey I have a good idea I believe, and i need an artist, wanna team up?

(-2)

im really shite at coding, im decent at art though. what kind of art then ?? 2d im guessing, i do art as a hobby but not seriously. whats ur idea??? m not sure if i should, i told my friends they could play my game once im done so i dont know if i can do art and make a game on half the deadline as everyone else. also ill be away for most the gamejam so i wont be able to do art, or atleast youd have to half ur deadline.

i just need you for the art, I can code and do the rest.

but thats the thing, his problem is unoriginality cause of the topic

I agree it’s kind of annoying, but part of the point and challenge of game jams is to try to step out of your comfort zone. Even if you make a similar game to popular ones out there, it’s still possible to do a different spin on it! Good luck on your entry!

There would be no point in game jams if thinking was easy. Otherwise everyone would put out ai slop. Be a human and do what humans are good at. Be creative.

IM STRUGGLING TO COME UP WITH AN IDEA ASWELL.

We're probably about to see a huge crop of social deduction games, if I had to guess.

Definitely not the theme I voted for either, but it felt good when we had our "aha" moment, we're trying to avoid going with the first idea/genre the theme kinda pushes you towards

I think I'm sitting this one out. All the ideas I have require skills I'm yet to develop (cutscenes, dialogue options, decisions etc). 

I'm waiting to see if an easier idea comes to mind
