I’ve always loved shows like CSI, and related crime dramas. I enjoyed the CSI games, but I thought they could be a bit more immersive, it was a bit bland at times. I would like to create a mystery investigation/thriller game from either a detective or civilian point of view. Maybe not so focused on the science like CSI etc., but something where the player must uncover evidence and manipulate objects to piece together the story (puzzle solving). Think LA Noire, without the GTA style gun-blazing action (more focused on the mystery).
-Engine: TBD
-Either First or Third Person can work, but I think FP would be best.
-Object Manipulation (Combining)
-Soundtrack (setting mood)
-Character Selection
-Evidence gathering
-Decision making
-Story-building interface (to solve case)
-Rewards/Punishments/Consequences
-Creating the appropriate environments
Maybe I’m a little too ambitious here, but this is definitely something I would like to see.
