Eduardo: I will have to check out Unity then. I like the idea of being able to put up test levels for others to try easily. Do they have already set up POV? As in third person, first person, side scrolling or do you have to add additional code to get those to work?
I like the idea about psyching the player out a little with cute graphics dark story but either version I would suggest having it feel slightly "off" at the beginning so that the player is not disappointed that it suddenly changes 1/4 or 1/2 into the game.
As for retro I feel that has been done a lot over the years. What about a game that has 8 bit roots say if this is a side scroller but is totally modern in action and story telling. I would love to see Ghouls and Ghost meets Shadow Complex. Depending on how dark it is it could look like one of the Souls games but with a humorous side. Remember Conkur's Bad Fur Day?? Maybe the player was sucked into this horror realm. Where he mocks how over done the horror is but as the game progresses he gets more afraid. Maybe a terror meter or this might be a stretch and a pain to do but I loved how Eternal Darkness messed with the player when their sanity was getting low.
That's my first idea, but I like where everyone's going with this.
