    I would fund anything dune related as long is it was written or approved by Frank Herbert. For one I’m sad the movies will stop with book two. Also, the games that came out and are coming out look very boring to me. A game somewhere between Skyrim and assassins creed might be more fun. I’m not a game designer though. I would want it to capture the intense 1 on 1 fights as well as the massive intergalactic political action.

    I want to make an 8-bit rpg in the vein of Final Fantasy set in Mesoamerica.

    In the beginning you select classes/characters based on historical roles from the region. The class choice designates party roles and gives access to skills that are manually input via arrow keys or d-pad. Those skills drain a stamina resource that is refilled in combat.

    I want a magic system that aesthetically looks similar to Metaphor Refantasio. Completing achievements/challenges characters unlock forms (stored in mirrors) based on Mesoamerican mythology that give access spells that use mana points as a resource and a limit break transformation. There will be twenty forms, one for each symbol in the Tonalpolhualli.

    I want to write in Lua so I give it Balatro like bells and whistles. Or JavaScript because this whole thing is a total fantasy.

    Kerbal Space Program / Factorio / Stellaris crossover

    Key elements would include:
    -design a factory/macro-economy to produce aerospace components & weapons similar to Factorio
    -using those components, design vehicles that obey real-ish physical laws similar to KSP
    -arm those vehicles and use them as units in Real Time Strategy with the option to take First Person control of individual units

      Space engineers survival pvp is similar to this but simplified. It’s basically Minecraft in space where you need production and build the ships block by block but the conveyers are simplified compared to factorio. Then the flight characteristics don’t have realistic planetary physics but at least you have a proper zero G environment with 6 degrees of thrust required or turn and burns so there’s the simplified ksp part. After that the multi-player combat is more like a elite dangerous with blocks being torn apart so there’s the simplified stellaris part. Unfortunately all of the factors are simplified so they are not 1:1 counterparts to the games listed but it’s the closest we have currently. Maybe space engineers 2 could change that though

    A sequel to Blood Wake or at least a spiritual successor.

    Not many people know about this game but I feel it would do somewhat well with online multiplayer. I was in it for the single player story. I’m still intrigued by the world they created.

    Um, I’m gonna reveal my age here and say that it’s a crime the old Dragonlance fantasy series was never made into a movie. It’s perfect.

      There was in fact a Dragonlance movie in 2008, Dragons of Autumn Twilight. I have not seen it to know if it was even a little bit good, but hey…there was one!

    I always wanted to see genres merged into one great big epic universe

    Plan and manage a galactic empire in the Civilization paradigm

    Enter individual space battles like Eve Online…

    Force boarding of captive ships and battle through them like Quake…

    But have all this connected and running simultaneously… you might be rushing though a FPS battle inside a ship trying to control of it when another Frigate in the space battle blows it apart etc. Or even as the ships bridge and navigation remains under hostile control you manage to take control of its weapons and use them to aid your side. Possibilities are endless…

    Separate idea: An open-world survival game, but using the TV show Jericho as the setting.

    You find yourself stranded in western Kansas after dozens of American cities have just been nuked, and with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stolen car, you have to rob and scavenge the countryside to survive.

    …I realized after typing out several paragraphs, that I basically want The Long Drive as a base game, but with BeamNG’s driving and crash physics, and Insurgency: Sandstorm’s gunplay.

    Players would get most of their supplies from fighting NPCs, having to find a fine balance between crashing out their cars without destroying the stuff they’re carrying, or the player smashing up their own ride in the process. I feel like Jonah Prowse’s story on the show would make for a fun endgame: the player creating/joining an organized gang to fight with larger convoys/settlements.

    There’s an FPS game called Darkest of Days I remember kinda liking, where you’re a time-travelling soldier who’s trying to put history on the right path.

    But basically all of the game’s levels are centered around WW1 and the American civil war. If I had the means, I’d remake this game from the ground up, give it a more varied story that does the concept justice.

    I still am not over 1899 getting canned. I wanted to see where that went so bad

    Edit: remake of bungie’s Myth series, not by current day Bungie though

    Film series of The Black Company, or the Darkstar Trilogy

      It would be great to be uber rich. You could start a streaming channel of all the shows you like that got canceled, and bring them back. So many good shows tossed in the trash by Netflix and HBO.

    movie: any muppet movie

    series: zefrank’s true facts, numberphile, myths and legends podcast

    video game: so far larian studios, but there’s a lot of small pubs and indie devs that are great as well

      Hear me out: Taken, with muppets. Liam Neeson reprises as the token human character.
