Brainstorm Ideas
How can you make a challenging survival game with one character in a small open world?
- Collect some sort of life giver. Against the clock.
- As day and night cycles. Find food and shelter
- Maintain pace as to not run out of energy as pressure builds to work faster
- Find water and food in a consistent ratio against the clock
- Find consumables as fast as you can, try and beat your own time
- Survive for as long as you can while running jumping from safe space to safe space as the odds stack
- against you
- Explore to find a range of items which increase your life span at varying increments, spaced at varying distances.
- Run away from ghost and find food for points, food turns into ghosts that further chase you. (increasing danger)
- The water level is rising faster and faster, find and remove plugs that lower the water table
- Run from giant expanding balls of energy, spawning randomly all over the place.
- Puzzle from skyrim
- Educate to survive I n real life environments
