I’ve had an idea for a game. Nothing ridiculous. Just a multiplayer battle royale set inside a dystopian television programme, with catastrophic environments, an audience, sponsors and an entire cast of people with dreadful judgement.
The graphics will be retro, which means it should take about a weekend. Possibly two if I insist on sound.
I’ve written “multiplayer” on a piece of paper. That feels like a significant technical milestone. Underneath it I’ve written “make it good”, so the design document is effectively finished as well.
The working title is SHITSHOW. This refers to the fictional television programme and is absolutely not a prediction about the development process.
There will be seasons. Each season will introduce a different catastrophe. I appreciate that planning several expansions before making a character walk is the sort of thing an idiot would do, but I’ve already thought of the names.
Current team size: one. Confidence: completely unearned.
I’ll post regular updates here. Shouldn’t be much of a commitment.
