Alright, this one takes its inspiration from SeedShip by John Ayliff. In fact, I've tentatively named it SecedeShip. Congratulations! Your fledging star nation has managed to break free of the grasp of the Galactic Space Empire, and your sp...

More of a mechanics idea instead of a narrative one. So, imagine a game that starts in a simple room. Nothing much to do, but walk through the only exit. However, imagine there are 10 different versions of this room. Let's call them Startin...

Alright, so fun idea here. During the early Triassic period two things were happening. One, Pangea was still in one piece, it didn't start to fully break up for another 50 million years or so. Two, at around 249 million years ago the temper...

I was fairly inspired by Amanda Walker's recent multiplayer game for ParserComp, The Purple Pearl. You can find it on the interactive fiction database (ifdb.org). I have several ideas around her 2-interlinked-game-file model, but the one I'...

So I haven't decided what medium would work best for this, Google Forms, Twine, Vorple, etc, there's pros and cons for all of them. Regardless, the key point is that this game would be submitted during seedcomp's sprouting round and during...

I had an idea about making an IF game about a disaster happening in the US and you and your family flee North to Canada seeking safety. Displayed and marketed as a "play through a disaster movie" kind of vibe. I wanted the family to go thro...

UN General Assembly: You play the ambassador to the UN from a recently independent small island nation. You are entrusted with a free hand by the nation's boy king to make what decisions you feel are in the fledgling nation's best interests...

IF Mechanic: Knowledge gating- Let's say you have a story centered around a highschooler and their favorite uncle, who is a bit of a crackpot scientist; sort of a Marty McFly and Doc Brown dynamic. The kid usually spends time in his uncle's...

The idea is to intentionally make a game with very difficult puzzles, that includes save and undo, buuuuttttt... the hint system extracts a price. First of all, the help system doesn't give a hint to the existing puzzle, but simply solves t...

This is a game that is a hostage scenario, but the hostage is a stuffed Teddy Bear (Mayor McStuffins) restrained to a chair and gagged. The game could take part entirely on a live MUD, similar to IFMUD, and the kidnapper would set certain g...

This is my best (fairly hurried) recollection of a short story I wrote some years ago as a fictional follow-up to the Kevin Costner film, The Postman. It has a few inspirations, but I thought it would be fun to convert into a fairly linear...

When I was a kid, I read an awful lot. My homelife... wasn't great. Reading was an escape. Got into a bunch of different series, among them, the Star Wars Expanded Universe (was fortunate enough to randomly start with Timothy Zhan's Dark Fo...
