How to create completely brilliant games ideas

Let's get a bit more analytical

All games have a theme (let's say, space) and a game mechanic (shooting). So what can we get if we jumble all that up?

Poem Puzzle - displays a poem on the screen with a word missing - can you guess what it is? Might be really nice to record what people type and display stuff like "1% thought, 'I wandered as lonely as a leopard.'

Tea Sokoban - shunt the teabag into the cup to make a lovely cup of tea.

    The best games of all time have to those mainstream addictive titles your mum would play. I'm no gamer, I've only ever obsessively played tetris, yahoo pool and solitaire. All these have one thing in common, creating order from chaos.

    bucsie - I think you'll find that Volfied was a sequel (of sorts) to Qix. Both were developed by Taito, although Qix was released many years earlier than Volfied. . /end-of-geek-rant
