Basically, its going to be a multiplayer sequel of my game: The Cube is Everything(not released yet).

WIP:
http://gamejolt.com/freeware/games/other/the-cube-is-everything/4543/

The Cube is Everything game is about a cube that can do anything. Something like Scribblenauts, but uses verbs, not nouns. If you type any action, the cube will execute it. You use the cube to solve puzzles.

For instance, you type in "hover". The cube will hover.
Or type "make fire". The cube will start a fire.
Or type "timetravel" and so on, an on.

Translating it to multiplayer:
Choices-
-Each player gets one cube each, and the players must kill the each other's cube or the player character that controls the cube.(The cube is somewhat independent of the player).

-Sleep is Death type game where one player controls the cube and another player manipulates the environment.

-Instead of CTF, Capture the Cube! The players engage in a deathmatch and capturing the cube lets you manipulate it for a short while. Then it disappears.

I think I like this option best.

Choices-
-Each player gets one cube each, and the players must kill the each other's cube or the player character that controls the cube.(The cube is somewhat independent of the player).

Seems like it could be difficult to limit each players choices to develop much strategy/depth.  Maybe it could work like one of those word games where players take turns picking letters to make a word.  The letters have to start a word that the game understands and whomever finishes the word directs the cube on their behalf.  Or maybe I'm starting to take this in a completely different direction than you were thinking.  Sounds like there's lots of potential with this idea.  Looking forward to see how it turns out.

You can now download the WIP of the first one. Only for WinXP or lower, for now.
