Since i already tried it with a smaller group of people and it went well, i am asking lemmy to give me an idea/feature/anything(that is not NSFW or against itch.io rules) that i will add to a game i will be making
I will try to add every single thing suggested here(even if only on a technicality)
Also, i had no idea how to title this post
Comment from a totally different person than OP(dont look at the name)
It should easier to get hit the more hp you have
Couch co-op.
Couch co-op is rare these days, but I would like to see more co-op in general. I used to have game nights on Friday night with friends on discord, but we just ran out of good games to play. Limiting factor being how many people can play at the same time. Most of the co-op games we have right now seem to be designed to make you miserable. You’re gonna fail, but how long can you last? I just want to have some fun with 2-6 friends without getting discouraged. One of the best ones we played was “Golf With Your Friends”. I don’t even like golf, but we all could play, no one had to sit out, and we had a blast until it got boring.
You ever play the Jackbox games? That’s our go to when we have more than a few people.
I’ve got a few of their bundles we’ve played multiple times. Quiz night style games are awesome for a while, but we like to play a more action(?) style of games where you control your character and work together or go off on your own to progress the group.
I thought last train outta worm town was awesome.
BG3 multi-player was awesome. For a more casual game I really enjoy Pummel Party. I was cut off from playing the worm in last train out of wormtown because I was too good at playing the worm.
If anyone misses old school Quake 1 (first person shooter) in co-op mode, you can play it for free on this server, in your browser

Once you get used to the controls, the game turns out to be very well balanced.
I’ve always wanted a sci fi themed game that plays like a Diablo style dungeon crawler. Sort of a cross between Duskers and Diablo, if that makes sense. You travel in a junky ship from space derelict to space derelict. You (and your party) explore these ghost ships looking for gear and upgrades for yourselves and your ship.
The overall story would be some quest for artifacts and navigational data to help you open a warp gate and escape the dying star system. You’d have playable classes like space marine, psycher, technician, doctor, etc. NPCs could be a variety of monsters and zombie astronauts. There would also be environmental hazards and puzzles and such.
Sorry, this is probably waaayyyy more than you were asking us for. Ignore me or cherry pick anything you like. =)
this would be so fucking cool. if i trusted Blizzard to even make Diablo anymore I’d argue a StarCraft game that plays like an ARPG that would be too rad.
If someone knows a game like this, please chime in.
Thanks. I’ve wanted a Starcraft as ARPG type game for decades.
Cheat codes that are helpful in allowing people with not enough time to sit and grind things out or fuss with mods to play through the story while still interacting with the core mechanics.
i miss text based muds
more text less 3d
Can I counter this request by asking for more 3D?
I also want more text though, esspecially if that text is also 3D.
You’re a monster.
I thought we saw the original Lucifer, but this is him in another dimension.
Achaea is still going strong.
Sunless skies and sunless seas is great
Ridiculous physics is always fun.
Rolling HP like in Earthbound and Mother 3. You get a big hit - your HP does not decrease to the point immediately rather starts rolling down, even if you’ve got a mortal damage. This way you can still have time to finish the fight and survive if your HP don’t reach 0 in the meantime, or even heal yourself. Also Luck (or Guts) as a stat, which can sometimes leave you at 1 HP no matter how overkill damage you just got.

Character creation

A hairstyle option that is actually a toupee. If your character is hit / impacted / falls / etc, the toupee can sometimes fall off l. The character suffers a debuff until they pick it back up or buy a new one. It is not apparent during character creation that what the player is selecting is a toupee, and the mechanic is not explained in any way.
- A character option that is literally a bear. Like literally a bear, masquerading as a human, and most NPCs are just going along with it
Is it ok if its a bear in a biblically accurate angel costume? Another comment said that the main character should be a biblically accurate angel and it would be an objectively better costume
I dont think i can make it not obvious the hair is fake considering that the main character is a biblically accurate angel

A procedurally generated escape the city third person zombie shooter with several randomized unique quest lines that can be discovered by scouting the city. Each quest line leads to a different escape route. (Military has surrounded the city)
Zombies should be 28 day later, one touch and you are infected zombies.
Maybe add some basic crafting and possibly coop or pvpve elements. One escape should take only a couple hours. The randomness gives the replayability. (A bit rogue like)
A bucket of dehydrated water, which you have to reconstitute by adding water, in order to put out an invisible fire. No idea what kind of game you’re making, could be a very odd addition to something like a racing sim.
could be a very odd addition to something like a racing sim.
Maybe not as odd as you think, since the methanol fuel used in many motorsports series actually does burn invisibly
A 3D rail shooter where you play as various ranks of biblically accurate angels shooting down demons.
2 minutes and i already regret my decisions
I really love when RPGs give unique dialog options based on non-dialog skills.
For example, if you are spec’d into a certain class of weapon you unlock dialog with a relevant vendor. Or if you have a high gambling skill, your character can talk about the finer points of gambling.
Taking this a step further, reactivity from having accomplished something requiring application of these skills allowing unique dialog.
This can all either be unique flavor dialog, dialog that gets the conversation to where it would have gone anyway, or dialog that opens up new quests or quest resolutions.
There should be a mode where you can sale propane and propane accessories.

It’s a surprisingly old video game with LARPing elements
The main mode?
I want the things I do and the decisions I make to actually matter to the story and not just like a good or bad choice shit either.
In terms of narrative: Pentiment is a good choice
In terms of consistent world (with your own internal narrative of what is happening): Kenshi is a good choice
The narrator
