I've been brewing up a platformer idea, I'm an artist and a writer but can't get my head around programming.
The story goal is 'reach home before the sun has set'. When it starts the time is noon and you go through 5 areas as time passes. You have a clock, but the game is not timed, the clock marks how many 'actions' you have left for the game. Interacting with npcs and taking on whatever task they have takes up an action and gives you a reward, there are more npcs then actions to encourage replaying.
I have more about it I can share in private!
