Hey guys. As some of you may know I've occasionally mentioned that I'm into making games and creative work of different sorts including music etc. Keeping things short: I'm in the mood for practice and something I love is working with a simple theme (as it's often done in contests or workshops).

So it would be great if you guys submitted themes, preferably single words. It may be seemingly trivial or really abstract stuff, including unlikely things you wouldn't expect to find in a video game. I would then choose a few and create simple games that are based on them. Nothing big, things you can create in a few days or weeks. If I get the feeling that I'm onto something more interesting I might expand them and ask some of my homies to join me.

Bring it on. :D

(I used to do this a lot with writing; ask friends to give me words and then I'd take the elements and turn them into a story. Ah, the good old days. If only I had friends now, haha).

Thanks so far. I'm already making notes for all these submissions. I think I'm already on to something with a few of them (won't say which ones yet and I'll wait for a few more submissions before starting practical work).

Licurg: Zombies
No!! I hate zombies.

Pirates, ninjas, "bizarre" atmosphere, political conspiracies, secret societies, philosphical wisdom.

Maybe not simple but what the hell.

Okay, simple: Hands, pen, daily work and food. :P
