Game Ideas: Evelyn

  1. A game inspired by the movie – A Quiet Place. There are 1 or 2 people selected to be the hunters. They are blindfolded and given a nerf gun with a limited number of shots. It is best played in the dark with boundaries.
  2. A art competition where at least 2 people compete to create a painting of a desired object with water squirters filled with watered down paint.
  3. The game of life but college themed – choices of real colleges, types of residences, majors with a comedic twist
  4. Campus-wide game of Mario Kart using scooters. A course could be set up using cones and other boundaries in parking lots or the paths if blocked off. You could compete as individuals or as a team. Teams could be made up of clubs, sports teams, other departments to inspire some friendly campus rivalry.
  5. Interior Designer game in Virtual Reality. You could upload your own home and furniture to experiment with layouts and styles. This would be more of a freeplay game.

  1. An art competition sounds like a great idea for something on campus! You could also lean more into it being a more “fine art” competition, where artists still have a limited amount of time to paint a piece, but they aren’t limited on their materials. I believe there have been art competitions downtown Pittsburgh that have done this, and the final pieces are auctioned off for charity. RMU could always use more artwork!!

    I think your Mario Kart idea is also very interesting. Teams could even dress up as their favorite characters to add to it. A painted or chalk rainbow road would be really cool too.

  2. I’ll admit I kind of want to see people paint with water guns. The question would be how is a winner determined? Is there a 3 judge panel, a single judge, is it accuracy, does an audience vote?

  3. Speaking honestly, there have been points in my life where I wish a game like your Interior Designer idea existed! Sometimes it’s hard to imagine what a space could look like in your head, and your game allows for that obstacle to diminish. Something that has always concerned me, however, is how one might be able to scan in their furniture/decor. Is it as simple and accessible as being able to do so with a cellular device? Or does such a process require equipment that not every user has access to? All of this is super hypothetical, but real questions to ask yourself if you pursue this idea!

  4. I love the idea of a Mario Kart game around campus. I grew up playing this game and it is very nostalgic. How do you think you’d go about making the speed boosts and the item boxes?

  5. I really like the game of life but college edition. I think theres a lot of opportunity for satire
