So, I've been kicking around a couple of ideas, and I'm wondering if anyone would find them interesting. I'll post the basic storylines in the spoiler tags below:
In a world…
In a world much like ours, there is an arcade. No, wait. There’s an internet café. No, wait! It’s an internet café arcade! Kinda…just go with it. It’s called LAN Party.
Anyway, for a small fee, you can enter this café and log into a game machine, where you can play any video game that’s on the system...network…server…thing. Whatever. This café is known for having literally any genre you can think of, and all the games are made by indie developers, so the café arcade can keep their prices low since they don’t have to pay exorbitant licensing fees and whatnot. They say it’s a pretty sweet place to live.
Did I say “live”? Heh, heck yeah, that’s what I said! We’re the, uh, the Ghosts in the Machine, so to speak. We’re the little doods and doodettes that run back and forth across your screens blasting aliens, or blasting zombies, or blasting robots, or blasting…ah, you get it.
Unfortunately, we’re in danger right now. Someone has released a virus onto the Lan Party server, turning this Lan Party into Lag Party, if you know what I mean. If someone doesn’t stop The Virus soon, they’re going to have to do a complete wipe of the system. You know what that means, right?
GAME OVER, MAN! GAME OVER!
Who will heed the Call of Duty? Will it be you?
In this roleplay, people would be playing as characters from games (original games, please). They can be Good, Bad, Glitches (within reason), etc.

Attention all Daycare attendants,
Lately, there has been an influx of toy donations to our little Babbling Brook Daycare family, and frankly, it’s getting hard to keep track of which toys belong to the children attending and which ones actually belong to the daycare center. Therefore, Miss Emily has devised a system for inventorying and cataloguing the toys that come in through donations. Please, whenever a new toy comes in, remember to put its description in the log book found in my office (if my door is locked, there is a key behind my nameplate right on the door). I thank you for your time and consideration, and remember to always Shine On!
Miss Madeline Brooks, Superintendent/Owner
P.S. – If you aren’t able to access my log book, please refer to the following form sheet as a guide and enter the information in my log book later.
The characters (you) have all ended up here, at Babbling Brook Daycare. How you ended up here doesn’t really matter. Most of the roleplaying will be taking place when the children are not around. Mostly slice-of-life kind of stuff. What are you going to do while you’re here? Try to escape? Try to take over? Maybe you’ll just be happy playing with the children and making friends.
Maybe…you’ll reveal what you really are… Wouldn’t that be something?
I'm also considering letting people play as non-toys, like children or daycare workers.
