Idea: you play as a mechanic who repairs the giant computers that control research facilities when they start going crazy.

[Udderdude]

How crazy are we talking about, here .. regular crazy, or CRAZY crazy?

This sounds very very good

SHODAN crazy, GlaDOS crazy, HAL 9000 crazy, that villain robot from Batman crazy, take your pick.

I was recently thinking about a fighting game that resolves around the inner 'energy' as a main power of all characters. I take this concept from many japanese animes where the energy is a main indicator of person's power. The characters can both (depending on their skill of course) sense the energy and control how much they 'release' when being idle. Approaching a really powerful character would make the whole screen shake, distort and tear, rendering your character useless and stunned by fear, while showing your power to weaklings would make them drop on their knees. I see this game as an open-world free-roaming  where you have to carefully pick your fights basing on the visual feedback you get while sensing the energy.

what's scouter say about his power level?

[wademcgillis]

It's probably kinda low.

A tabletop style game where you are able to do the intrinsically impossible, as long as you can come up with a valid reason for why it would be logical.

For instance, say you have a wall you need to climb over. All you have on your person, for whatever reason, is a bag of ice cubes. Now, hot air rises, and cold air sinks, so if you let the cold air push down, it will lift you above the wall.

In other words, Troll Physics: The Tabletop Game.

That's a wicked idea.
I think of shenmue
do you practice tai chi or qi gong?
If not practice it might be worth looking into for reference

Perhaps a bit cheesy, but meh.

Dungeons & Dragons, pal. That is, if you have a creative DM.

interesting concept. this is applied to a lot of street-fighter like fighting games, but i've never thought of it in a big-eat-small avoidance game.

Oh gosh, this is a game that I am making.
Get out of my head!  

edit: Except mine is more about 'normal' samurai and less about power levels and shaky screens.
