hwangoNorth Star Games had this contest in December where you came up with the title and short writeup for a game that doesn't exist. They'd pick their favorite and that person would win a copy of all of their games, plus money if they decide to make it a real game (with your permission).
I did not win. The thing that won is okay, I guess...
Time Travel: The game you already didn't play tomorrow and have now won yesterday.
It's cute, but I feel like a time travel game with a time travel joke isn't the most original thing they could have picked. But of course I'm biased, because I'd rather they picked one of mine. Which, for comparison purpose were:
Release the Kraken!: The game of monster rights activism.
Unbelievable!: The game of crackpot religions.
Tell Me When It's Over!: The game of collecting doomsday prophecies.
Wages of Sin: The game of payroll accounting in Hell.
Zero Liability: The game of crafting end user license agreements.
I feel like the first two are the ones I'm mostly likely to actually try to design myself.
