Ask some English major aspiring to become a writer. That's about all his degree is good for aside from being a dead end teacher.
OP makes a post on 4chan
>>675572773
OP on /b/ sucks anons dick
guy gets hacked from going on /b/ so much, a secret society of hackers and narcissists find out where he lives and start ruining his life by getting him accused of child porn and prostitution then they drag him into the internet underworld where there is pain and pleasure
A storm traps a sailor on a deserted island. A different crew that has also been marooned on the same island but for much longer have gone insane and start killing the new crew one by one. Your job is to escape. Set it in the early 1600's. That just seems like a good time period for a ship to wreck on an island and no one to find them for years.

You play a dead private investigator trying to find your own killer.
You find other victims on the other side and ask them what they know.
Twist, along the way you find out he's a serial killer controlled by a legion of demons.
Tuesday, a spacewalk outside a space station. After whatever events you die. You wake up and have to relive Tuesday over and over, but can't seem to find a way to alter the course of events. Also someone or something is actually doing this to you on purpose.
Sort of like Groundhog Day in space except really depressing and this premise is even older.
not enough black cock for you to suck

Not an english major, but a pretty good writer
>>675572773
make a game about youkai with impossible room physics that is more about suspense than jump scares
>Be grill
>Walk into grocery store, place looks nutso. Monsters, blood, etc. Can't leave.
>Call husband, he goes to store and it's normal. He can tell you're not lying, finds out he can manipulate objects IRL to help you in your world.
>Have to find big bad to break curse on area and make it normal.
>This happens to grill every once in a while. Come to find out she's a monster and slew people the first time, subsequent times have been cops catching up to her. Hubs has been dead and rotting in living room for weeks.

Old-school RPG type but in; let's say space or on an other planet.
>>675574322
This is way to sci-fi-ish
I'm looking for something with lots of potential for jumpscares

You want an indoor setting with tight corners then, but literally everyone does that. Just make it super dark and go with >>675574039
One of those dreams where you're at school or whatever but have no pants, and have to sneak out without letting your classmates see your cock
You play as a guy who gets random texts, all of the texts are images that you can go into like different worlds that you can discover and help out.
>>675572773
The rich and elite of the world have parties
parties where they eat and torture people to death
you work for them
you do many missions for them
you DON'T kill them in the end
I always thought a creepy thing for a horror game could be that enemies know where you are, and you periodically would get sort-of a premonition of the POV of a spooky ghost or something running towards the area you're in, and you have to work to constantly maintain distance from where you know they are as you do puzzles and shit

Not op thats a pretty good idea

Kek'd at thought of this
>>675576340
Caves? Ships? I don't know. Either make it a pacific island or a Caribbean island. Which ever islands tend to have more caves. I could probably write for you.
>>675572773
Make an adaptation of the grifter
Or maybe make it a quest to find out WHO WAS PHONE!
Detroit: The cleanout
make a tumblr survival game
use something like from the beginning of the Wolverine where he wakes up twice.

This. Panicking is scarier than spooky shit
Scene:
> Your a cop. You've been on the force for only a few months, but you think you have a handle on the whole thing already. It's night.
> You and your partner get a call that a shut down factory is reporting loud strange sounds.
> You guys get out of the car and slowly approach, hearing strange noises. Strange lights and some shadows showing through windows that should be pitch black.
> Your partner takes the lead, since he is the more experienced, older officer that's been showing you the ropes. But he is a little over protective of you since he knew your father.
> He checks a door and sees it's unlocked, and makes the first move to go in before you.
> The door slams shut right after he goes in. You try to open the door but can't.
> Screams are heard on the other side and you hear what seams to be him being dragged off yelling telling you to call for back up and run.
> you try your radio, but it's dead.
> you retry the door... and it opens.
You are now in a boxed dark corridor setting with jump scares. Trying to figure out what the mystery is that is happening in this once abandoned factory. You go threw and find clues. Every so often you hear screams from your partner.
What is the mystery? Doesnt really matter. Pick something and go with it....
Maybe your partner is in on it? Maybe it's demonic? Maybe you're dead and the factory represents your mind trying to cope? Maybe it's just filled with crazy people filled with former asylum residents that were "miss placed" after it was shut down.And you are going to have to kill them all one by one, to get ur partner back "The Raid"/ "Dredd" style...
Your welcome, i just wrote your game.

You are Ted Cruz and you live in the sewers with your rat kin. You must solve a murder mystery with a paranormal twist.
>>675572773
You're a woman attempting to escape the clutches of Bill Cosby
You're in a coma and your memories of life are the only way out. They are deformed and you switch between piecing your life together to escape the coma (or death. Depends how you wanna end the game) and the reformed parts of your subconscious mixing your memories with false truth, illusion and whatever else mentally fucks with you that's not a jump scare. Make it something that people want to get connected with and feel engrossed by actually feeling the cringe of reliving their own horrible memories.
Good enough for you OP?
>>675577217
Damn dude, might go with this
>>675577217
People use super natural stuff too much so they don't have to be confined to logic since you can just answer any question with "magic lol", which is bad writing.
>>675572773
okay get this; so the players are overnight security in a haunted funhouse like a Chuck E Cheese or something right, and the animatronics are coming to life and jumpscaring the player. I garuntee it will take very minimal effort on your part and retards will just gobble it up.

Opening scene: Out sailing with family and friends on brothers yacht. Massive storm, collide with a cruise ship in the dark. Character is knocked unconscious. You wake in a dark room on the cruise ship. Blood splatters the walls and the power is out. You search the ship for your family and friends, lots of scary shit happens cuz its a ghost ship where a Sirens Song drove everyone to madness and they all murdered each other. Sirens song is heard by your family and friends who you have to stop from killing each other in act 2. You arent effected because plot twist your character is deaf and all of the scares in the game are completely visual. Except for the silence. The silence might be the scariest thing of all.
>>675577763
video game writing doesnt have to be that good. besides. i gave a non 'magic' plot option... which is kinda my favorite cause you can do a bioshock splicers/ condemned type deal.
>>675572773
Guy goes into coma during low risk surgery, stuck in purgatory with demons until he finds his way back to his body
Post WW3 world. You are Trump and you use your magic and enchanted weapons to battle zombie hordes and other monsters that now inhabit our torn world.
>>675577217
A cool mechanic could be that you of course have a handgun, but you only have your realistic three magazines worth of rounds for the entire game (ie. 45 rounds for a Glock 22), you never get more. Plus with an actual magazine system, not some Battlefield ammo pool shit.
>>675578066
make it an rpg and i'll buy it
>>675578200
Still. Waking up with no context is a cliche now. Vidya writing doesn't have to be that good, but it still has to be good.

>>675572773
transported jew wakes up in concentration camp u have to escape it all the nazis are zombies
>>675572773
Niggers and arabs have taken over the world. You have to kill the entire planet by detonating all of the nukes on earth at once, only then will the planet be cleansed of their goat fucking barbarisms.
>>675578477
Actually battlefield 4 throws partial mags away in hard core mode. But yee, red orchestra just cycles though all the mags you have.
>You play as a solider
>U shoot nazis or russians but theyre super nazis take ur pick
>Some shit happens
>U win
>there 5 star game
>>675578477
good idea, have other weapons that are makeshift, like bats, and pipes that you have to switch to save on ammo.
and other opportunities for more ammo, might be items dropped by ur partner as bread crumbs, and spread far apart are his magazines
>>675572773
UNREAL ENGINE is a POS
You find out all the conspiracies are true. Jews are an evil reptilians race that has imprisoned the world with their financial system. It's your job to team up with rogue government elements to retake the earth.
>>675575705
Also this. Cool idea.
For what it's worth, the scariest setting I could think of for myself would be something aquatic
Like a rusty shipwreck or old submarine or something
>>675578891
Yeah I get where they're going with that and it's better than the ammo pool shit, but it still really annoys me.
Why would I be dropping mags I've only fired a few rounds out of? Why can't I fucking tell how many mags I have left? The worst thing to me in hardcore is having no idea after a while how much ammo I have, like you can't just pat your pouches to feel how many are there
SWAT 4 is another great one that does that btw: do a bunch of tactical reloads and you start reloading the partially empty mags
H.p. lovcraftian, of sorts. Mixed with the plot from the original the thing. But on a tropical island.
>>675576688
I would totally play this in Unreal Tournament. I could easily see it as an Invasion game...all them nigger monsters, and more than enough ammo.
Monster Madness is the BEST UT server in the world.
>>675578624
whos waking up? every video game starts with you jumping into a character with no context.... and having context and exposition fed to you beforehand is almost the definition of bad writing in video games. unlocking and learning about the world around you as you go through a game is what makes it immersive. case in point bioshock. where you "wake up" as you put it in the water surrounded by fire.
and i agree suppernature and magic are lame. which is why i gave one actual good plot possibility at the end after i almost threw up in my mouth writing the previous ones.
>>675579745
IIRC a white supremacist group did once make an ethnic cleansing PC game where you essentially run around shooting minorities
you try to escape your enemy while you can only see yourself from the enemy's point of view
Black people move in next door.

reading that gave me the chills

But if all conspiracies are true, then those rogue government elements are the ones that did 9/11. And you have autism because the pharmaceutical companies put autism in the vaccines to create 4chan.

Go to the SPC and read some entrys man, some if the shit there would be awesome for games
Niggers chasing you. Lose all of the KFC and you lose the game
I always thought it'd be cool to make a game based in schizophrenia where you think you're killing monsters trying to piece back memories and play as different characters but the memory piecing eventually turns out to be brain restructuring showing the span of mental health and eventually brining you back through things showing you everything you tried to save in the game being you actually killing everybody that you developed close bonds to in the game. The ending could wind up where you find a whole hearted person with everything he could've wanted in life, especially your own, and after killing him it shows the situation panning through the schizophrenia ad you actually committing suicide and taking away everything you've ever wanted
>>675578094
But why is this not being talked about
find an amazonic god or devil, make it in the jungle, nobody survive

Murdered: Soul Suspect
>>675580820
I would buy the shit out of that
The horrors of adult hood. You start off looking at a screen, screen jas this very tgread. Your character has colorful anime posters on the wall. Tutorial:walk to fridge, open it, eat combine x ingredient with x to make salad, eat salad. Go back to deak. Look at picture of girl on desk. Get up. Walk to door. As you open the door you hear something behind you. Then go on. The game woll be about how an anon cant get over his social anxiety and is trapped in his apartment because of how scared he os of talking to people
and then the all touched dicks
>>675578094
That, with a few alterations could actually be fucking sweet. Maybe give the option of having no sound and maybe even in black and white... All optional tho. It'd give it fucking awsome contrast and replay value... Especially if black and white and soundless mode was extra hard as shit. In my opinion.

> You are a lone guy in a calm neighbourhood, you mingle with the people and chat with them daily
> You start noticing that people start getting scared of the new guys moving in the adjacent area
> The new people are of african american descent, the character instantly gets on high alert, he wants to protect the neighbourhood
> This black guy starts talking shit and throwing mad stares to the main character
> After a lot of inner struggles, the character arms himself with great amounts of courage and starts following the black hooligan
> He is scared of said individual, thinking about the safety of his people, he takes matters into his own hands
> He decides to shoot said black guy after a brief exchange of words and physical struggle
> The game starts, you get to customize the physical appearence of the character and the name gets set by default, George Zimmerman
> Then you transition into the game with trial hearings and black lives matter bullshit
You're welcome OP.

Call of cthulhu: dark corners of earth
Is op even listening?
You wake up in a dimly lit room. A light flickers off in the distance. As you approach you realized you walk into a small, square room with four doors. One behind you and one in each cardinal direction. One of the doors is locked shut... Each room you walk into, all open doors shut, and all shut doors open.
After some wandering, you realize that you are in a 10x10 grid of rooms. Find the exit... There is no exit.
Throw in some psychological horror elements, but no real threat.
