The best game idea ever

[Caelum]

You wake up. You don't know where you are. You are wearing a pair of Cargo pants, a shirt with a pocket, some glasses, sneakers and gloves. Its a first person game.

You have to escape. But how?

Anything not screwed to the ground you can pick up. Anything. But most of it doesn't do shit. You can combine almost anything together, but most of it doesn't do shit and sometimes you waste items you need. The game wont tell you though, so you just give up and restart the level. Your inventory is like a real inventory- Some items, you can carry in your pocket, depending on how you stuff them in there. Some you got to lug around. Maybe you will get lucky and make a shitty backpack. Maybe you wont. Who knows.

Its really dark, and most of the game takes place in confusing cave systems of an abandoned mining colony on earth, deep in the depths. There are monsters, and yes, they pick up items too. But the items they pick up? You might need them. If you want to see in this dark cave systems, either use the light provided (Which you could pick up, but damn, its kind of really hot.) Or use your trusty flashlight. Dont worry, we will have batteries for you. To bad they are double A's and you are sporting a triple A flashlight.

Dont worry, we dont expect you to fight the monsters with whatever you find laying around, that would be nearly impossible and would probably get you killed. No, we will give you a gun, on a dead guard. But it has no ammo. Don't worry though, you can find some more ammunition. Except all of it is ammo not for the gun you are using. The gun will still mock you. You can even hold it in first person. Just to mock you, of course. Now go get a pipe and beat up a demon.

Realistic life system. If you slip and fall, you might sprain, or even break your ankle. Then you scream in pain for half an hour, and have to crawl your way slowly through the rest of the game. Or just load the last save. You might trip over a rock, knock yourself out. Who knows, just be careful where you walk. There are bandaids, though! Those can restore you- No, those just stop the bleeding. They don't do shit for the pain. Painkillers? Yeah, there are none.

Halfway into the game, you will get a hole in your pocket. But it wont tell you. No, sometimes, shit will just fall out of your pants, and you will have to treck back and try to find it, on your hands and knees, lest you want to use your valuable flashlight.

Did I mention if you yank your head to fast, or get shocked, or fall over, you have a chance to drop and break your glasses? Without those, you are fucked. Everything is blurry.

There is an escort mission, too. A guy on drugs, his breath is the key to the next area. But he thinks you are a monster, and will constantly attack you, and wants to hug monsters, because he is high. And he wont stop attacking you. Have fun.

Sometimes, other people will randomly join your game, or you will join theirs. There is no warning. They will look like monsters to you, as will you to them, so feel free to beat them senseless. They don't drop anything though, so dont think you can get lucky and find some batteries off them or something.


And the last level, you will reach a puzzle, where there is nothing. You cant complete it. Literally, its an impossible puzzle. And its just a ledge you cant reach. You could try and stack items, but even if you stacked up every trash item in the game, you still cant reach it. You just lose there. There is no winning this game.

Anything I missed?

Flush the toilet.

You flush the toilet. You realize there was a key in the toilet, but its gone now.


You also attempt to cast a spell, but you quickly realize you are not harry potter.

It was interesting watching this idea come together in Skype between Caelum and Elendra. Also, here's the title I dubbed this game with:

Fuck You, Player. I Hope You Get Trapped In A Thumbtack And Lego Minefield For The Rest Of Your Unnaturally Cruel Life.
