Welcome to the inaugural episode of Power to the People. Power to the People is an experiment in collaborative game design. You may think of PttP like improv theatre – the audience yells out suggestions and I’ll throw them into the game. The result will be crazy and hopefully wonderful.

Once there’s been enough time for everyone to have their say, I’ll implement several of the most common (and creative) suggestions and show several variations on the game. At this point, you get to vote which variant you want to go on. This will keep going until we have something complete or it’s no longer fun. Simple, right?  Here’s how you can send me suggestions:

Power to the People: Episode 0

If you look on the game page, right now it is a blank slate. Just think of all the awesome stuff that it could become! Here’s the first prompt:

Name two objects that you want to see in the game

Cool, then my two objects are:

1. A dead planet shrunken down and trapped inside a child's bouncy-ball.

2. A wooden chair haunted by fire spirits, forever burning yet never burned away.

I don't know how I would draw these, but I like!

Nice idea, this. Looking forward to seeing it evolve.

  • A jetpack that propels you up by shooting rockets down.
  • An ominous doppelgänger.

It will surprise me if it ends up being coherent. Is the genre defined or will it be voted too?

Interesting suggestions so far, everyone.  I'm going to have to sweat to implement these.  Smiley

With regard to genre, I'd like to have as much freedom as possible.  Obviously, this is restricted by the amount of work that I can do.

This is a cool idea, I think I heard in a podcast that "Love" (the mmo) was going to work a little like this.

Anyway, here's some suggestions:

- 2 balls. If they touch, the game ends.
- Stalin.

That is all.
