Alright, serious thread

I graduate in a couple months and I need a job.  I want to go into the game industry, but according to Sid Mieres (from his talk), I need a game to show them.  I've been thinking about a Clock Crew RTS possibly.  I'll be doing this primarily in C and C++.  I just need some ideas for shit if any of you faggots can help.

If you base it on the clock crew i reckon an employer would think it was weird and not get it, why not make up your own characters?

Well peggy tanks are a given.

Make one of those rubbish casual games every thirty-something plays to pretend they're young. Loosely base it on the Clock Crew if you really want to, noone will get the concept if you use it too much

I don't know if the Clock Crew would be the best topic. But I suppose it could be pulled off.

me and ipod came up with a game called DELICIOUS FRIENDS which is kind of like Smash Bros but it's a climbing race so you've got like ten characters racing up the empire state building or the masts of a ship or a giraffes neck or something and you can throw stuff at eachother to knock eachother off and hit eachother when your on flat land and snakes come out of the building windows and bite you and come on it would be awesome

the way we planned it it had Batman and David Bowie and Beethoven in it and stuff but if you wanted to do it and make it not copyright infringing it could be changed

come on do it I'll animate for you come on maaan

Actually, make an rts about pigs. Peggy being a special unit. And the emblem for the protaganist force will be a strawberry clock. That way it'll make more sense and you'll still have clock references.

Almost like Hogs of War? That game was the greatest.
