@Superku, the Battletanks and Battleships maps form warcraft3 sounds alot like what you mean, but than without the items. It is kind of fun to play, but there so many players who hate on beginners. Making it more casual would probably solve that, but I think you would lose alot of potential customers too (the more competive players). Probably a clear split between a casual and competive gametypes would be the awnser.

Did anybody think about a game that actually allows to cheat? So that you collect cheats by collecting coins / being the fastest / killing bad people and enter them afterwards. Sure, it is nothing else but "rewards" but it could be a nice gameplay feature.

hehe, sounds funny, but probably that would require a lot of lives to allow recovering from death many times during an arena fight to not to be very frustrating.

Not really a game idea but I like this kind of puzzle games:

I just started playing 'Mind: Path to Thalamus'.

In the beginning it was quite interesting, but after playing some minutes the environments and leveldesign just blew me away...
The Ideas (leveldesign aswell as gameplay) are interesting and it looks imo. much better that most AAA titles, even without any advanced rendering techniques:


From what I've seen the puzzles are really cool so far and the music is great, aswell.
Probably worth giving a try

It looks very cool , reminds me of risen .

there's nothing wrong with puzzles/mystery games imho , they are
very interesting and can keep me entangled in the mystery mood , love them.

Wow. simply Stunning. Looks like a great game.

Yeah, maybe I'll make some kind of breakdown of the things they used to achieve this kind of graphics.

made with unreal engine... still requires of course pro artwork.

The artwork is actually not that complex or complicated. With some epirience it's not too hard to make assets like the ones in this game.

The harder thing is the inspiration for the environments in my opinion. They've really had great ideas and it's clear to see that they knew what they were doing.

true , and I mean myst not risen
