Looking for New Video Game Ideas

ChadTower:

I've always wanted to write a street hockey game based on the way we actually used to play as a kid... varying arenas.  One a beaten up tennis court with the poles still there, another a sidestreet, a third a youth center that was half decent but had rusty fences all around it.  Standard stuff all kids encouter... the couple kids who can skate but weigh nothing... the ones who can't skate but have 75mph slapshots they can't control... the one kid who never brings skates... ball goes under the fence, net easily dislodged, occasional fights.  I think it might be best done for a 16 bit console but with a much higher amount of memory than Genesis games so you could add in a lot of Baseball Stars type functionality along with Super Tecmo Bowl stat tracking.

How about a tower defense game?  Different mazes, different types of towers.  I play Tower Defense games a lot on Warcraft 3.

ChadTower:

A ChadTower defense game would work.   ;D

hypernova:
New version of Scorched Earth?

Take a look at my first post  ;D  I made a tower defense game, but a more complicated one then most (to make at least) because the enemies don't follow a given path, their paths are dynamically created as you add new turrets to block their path.  Also, if you look at current flash games, Tower Defense games have got to be the most common type of game currently being made.  I see a new one every week or two.

Worms was a really good take on the genre, I suppose I could make something similar to that.  (I was addicted to Worms 2 back in 1998 or so)
