A horror game idea

It takes place mostly on an outpost on the Moon. After a mysterious burst of energy coming from fifty miles away, your character, an astronaut, is assigned to investigate. All of a sudden, most power is turned off to the facility. It turns out there is a relic on the moon belonging to aliens. No HUD to add to the experience. Enemies are either humans driven insane, mutated humans or aliens. What do you think?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ElitePurri [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] IslocStarkiller Make it first-person, and not a dead space knock-off and that would be pretty cool.[/quote] Well, it is first person to add to the immersion. And no HUD. Along with the fact that most of the time you're pissing yourself running it's pretty scary.[/quote] Also, it'd be neat if there were primarily make-shift melee weapons.

  • How about this: The main antagonist is a little girl with dark hair and wearing a pure white dress. It's been done to death but it still scares the -blam!- out of me.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] The one God [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wyzilla [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] The one God [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wyzilla -facepalm- Sounds mediocre at best. The greatest horror game, and likely greatest game in general, would have you as a -blam!- SS Stomrtrooper and would start out with you gunning down a group of Jews. Your commanding officer would order you to open fire, and if you didn't you'd be killed and restart. So you'd be forced to use the trigger button, they'd scream, fall into the grave they dug. Maybe have the youngest child of their family run up and grab you pantleg and beg you to stop. You look up rather grimly, you officer points and yells to shoot, so you do, in the head. Then you kick the body in and you have another group of jews bury them. Then you move on, haunted by the actions you committed, and later murder your commander and flee into the wilderness and search for a partisan group. Survival horror. Haunted by the stuff you did, which would take a gameplay effect and you'd experience PTSD during the game, vision is distorted, people take the appearance of those you killed, shots and screams are heard, you snap back to the murder, etc. Of course, it'd never be made because of the backlash. But it'd elevate gaming to a higher level on par with books and movies.[/quote] Not only would that be a truly great game idea, but I would have a field day over the rustling of FOX's jimmies. [/quote] The field day alone would be -blam!- hilarious. 'IT TRAINS CHILDREN TO BE -blam!-S!' 'M'am, it's rated M and you're ignoring the plot twist where he's haunted by his actions and joins a partisan group.' 'IT TRAINS YOU TO BE A -blam!-'[/quote] I remember how they went on about how all games with any adult content should be AO-rating over Mass Effect. Don't they understand an M is the same as an R rating? It's like they aren't even literate.[/quote] Lol, I just posted the idea on another forum, and person asked why is was racist against jews. -_- Really?

I'd play it. [Edited on 10.10.2012 9:54 PM PDT]

How do you obtain ammunition for that matter? Perhaps ammunition is scattered about but few inbetween or perhaps there's a recharge station. Perhaps you even get ammunition off of corpses.
