"Way Maker" vs "Make Way" vs "Tunnel

an abstract tile taking strategy game about building consecutive tiles to your opponent's base and cutting off their tiles

Out of this three I would choose "Way Maker". This name tells that the way is built by the player.

I have some other suggestions for the name:

Tileway
Tiled Way
Tiles
Wayward
Way Builder
Tiling
Tile's Way

Nuclear Rune / Atomic Rune / Core Division

Top-down party RPG (devlog). The setting would be fantasy with some nuclear-powered abilities and story elements. The story is about creating a huge pentagram rune which opens a portal to hell, followed by the heroes lobbing a nuclear bomb into the portal to close it.

Is the rune itself nuclear? Or the bomb only?

The rune would be powered/activated using five towers which are basically ancient nuclear power plants.
The radius of this rune would be dozens or hundreds miles (although there could also be a pocket version acting as map/instructions for creating the bigger one).

Ahh, okay, then it would fit the name. I think Nuclear Rune is a pretty cool name.

Okay, I'm scared... but what the hell, here it goes :D

My game is Radiant LUX.

It's a 2D side-scroller shooter with its core gameplay concept built around COLORS. Your attacks have colors, the enemies have colors, if you match your attack with the enemy you deal more damage, you pew pew stuff and level up your colors. All in abstract neon-style vector graphics.

Heya!

I Hate Dots! is my first solo effort and since the idea was to make something as simple as possible so I can test the Google Play publishing process for myself, the name is basically what first popped into my mind.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gumbosoup.IHD



Let's face it, there are effing dots everywhere on mobiles so, on an impulse, I decided to do a somewhat ironic turn on it, a game named "I Hate Dots!" which is, again, all about dots.

But is this a good way to go about it? "Hate" is such a strong word in english language... Maybe change the name before full release? "Tap the Dots!" is a bit trite but its down to the point. Maybe even "I Love Dots!" for a positive spin on it...

Your thoughts?

[Zorg]

You mixed up the links, somehow.

Maybe you can come up with behaviours for the dots which make them really hate-worthy? If "Tap The Dots!" is "down to the point" you may use it as a description, too.

"I Hate Dots!
- Tap the dots! Tap more dots!"

[kerempooh]

Oh, thanks for the tip about the link! (it's fixed now)

Hate worthy? Well.. it's a really simple game, basically a slightly more advanced version of whack-a-mole... The hate bit is like a kind of reaction you get at all those dots which keep coming up no matter how much you tap at them. Also, there are all those bug-squashing games with really bad graphics and dodgy gameplay and I thought of making something which looks and plays a bit better. Hmm... Still can't escape the feeling that there could be a better name for it...

Okay, so our game is a 2.5D shooter/platformer set in a fantasy world. Think Megaman in Final Fantasy IX's world. The protagonist is a 12 year old boy and we want his name to be also the name of our game. Unfortunately, we simply can't make up our minds about which name to choose, I mean, there were fights at the office for this, people.

This is our character's design:



And these are our alternatives til now:

• Mylo: This one was my favorite. Unfortunately, Sony beat us to it
• Rumi: My second choice. It's the same name of this muslim poet, though and it's nothing but a coincidence because we actually got it from the quechua word for "stone"
• Kuno
• Tawa
• Ayar
• Awki or Auki: I really like this one but I don't know...
• Qhari
• Colby
• Ike
• Lyle
• Micah
• Teo
• Yoss
• Farley

Any comments or suggestions we'll be greatly appreciated!! Please end this war!! (at our office)

Ike was also used before for Fire Emblem.

Hi, would really preciate some help with the name of my game:

Here is a link to the game:

and a few screenshots:

Help I'm making a cooperative card+dice game where you play as soldiers rescuing civilians & shooting other soldiers.

Core mechanic is psychic cohesion strategic teamwork -- play the same formation as your teammates to get bonuses in the battle (play your cards at the same time). The defending player is playing their defense formations guessing what the attacking team might play. Then you throw dice and see who shoots who, then proceed to the next round.

Dice Soldier?

Delta Team Dice?

DiceTeam?

I suppose it could also be themed as a Football game, if that helps.

"Up&Up - Balloon Puzzler"

Trailer:

[woodsmoke]

I think something is missing with "Up&Up". How about "Up up and away!"?
Or "Get High"


I'm making a simulation game where you put wood on the fire and watch it burn away.
Which name is the best?
Fire Glare
Fire Stare
Fire Glow
Firewood
Hypno Glow
Blaze Daze
Fire Porn

Any alternative ideas?

Hello ! The name of my game is "Metal Hands with Guns" and here is a trailer video :

[woodsmoke]

"Metal Hands with Guns" doesn't say much to me when I hear it. I find it hard to imagine what the game is about, and also hard to remember. Just "Metal Hands" would be better I think, because it reminds me of kung-fu movies. Maybe choose a type of metal: Iron Hands, Titanium Hands, Chromium Hands, Platinium Hands, Palladium Hands. Hope this helps somehow.

I'd love to hear which game name you like the most from my previous post.

I like firewood! Maybe "firestarter"? Might not fit the feel of your game though

What do you think about the name: "Spaceroids"?
it's an arcade game set on space where you travel between planets (score based/endless)
i took the word "Space" and "roids" from "asteroids" and mixed them together.
Does it get a passing grade in your book?
