A wide variety of random prompts this week gives us:
A visiting uncle with unknown motives is viewed through different perspectives;
A game where introverts are forced to install a helper device to guide them through conversations;
An FPS where you must hit your marks during the shooting of an 80s action flick;
A survival game set in the gold rush;
and more!
Automating the production of medieval weapons, chaparoning the winter ball, Stardew Valley in a nuclear winter, an adventure game set in a bathroom and a game where you follow the story of the main character as multiple NPC's. Ramped Up Click Pitch and What 3 Words combine to bring these crazy ideas and more.
With their old random word generator back online, Ben and Trevor take you down a magical pathway of improvised game designs, such as:
A simulated world of Besties and Reverse Besties as you jump between characters struggling to make ends meet,
A caretaker of a colony ship automating systems and programming mutating robots,
A necromancy student disillusioned with academia and searching for the true Necronomicon,
and more!
An open world investigation game based on the movie Slither, a ghost befriends 4 young kids at the Overlook Hotel, a horror movie based VR fitness game and the adventures of a young dropout wizard going to raves and the dangers of magical drugs. All these ideas and more are wildly thrown about and then discarded like they were nothing in this weeks episode.
With random prompts brought to you by What3Words.com, find yourself swept away into imaginary games such as:
Creating a space station so large it creates the look of a new constellation on Earth, First person base building on an alien planet (with a heavy focus on waste water), air currents as a game mechanic and ladybugs become the worlds greatest delicacy.
Some high concept ideas this week as Ben and Trevor invent games where you play through the fantastical ideas of your grandfather via their cassette tapes, explore a water-covered version of New York, live out your life during the slowest battle ever, plant things on the moon, and more!
Cthulhu-esque goings on at the Bed, Bath and Beyond, the secret of the man in the moon, agents of H.I.V.E. and a classist system of Gravediggers are actively protecting London from a zombie outbreak. Trev and Ben laugh their way through yet another wild edition of What Three Words.
Traverse five generations of your family tree to discover the source of an ongoing feud, a point and click adventure that spreads your consciousness across three days, go bar hopping during a literal hens night, hunt for the last of the fossil fuels for one final joyride, and more!
Collect animal DNA in a non-lethal way, investigate a rural farmhouse that is being fumigated, play as a spider escaping the farmhouse, figure out which movie patrons are really freeloading ghosts and can Dracula resist the urge to feed while running a daycare.
