Game Jam Idea Generator

https://commanderfoo.github.io/game-idea-generator/

A weighted rules engine designed to synthesize unique and coherent game concepts for game jams and prototyping.

Features

• Weighted Rules Engine: Generates synergistic combinations based on design rules, not just random words.
• Comprehensive Generation: Creates a full "design seed" including:
  • Theme: The setting or mood.
  • Core Mechanic: The primary action the player performs.
  • Twist: A unique variation on the mechanic.
  • Goal: The objective of the game.
  • Failure State: How the player loses.
• Complexity Slider: Adjust the ambition of the generated ideas from "Tiny" to "Ambitious".
• Thematic Bias: Optionally prioritize specific themes (e.g., "Space", "Fantasy").
