I was planning to do a Point-and-Click adventure where you try to escape…<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I can’t do it. I don’t think it will have very interesting graphics, I don’t know how to execute the story.<\/p>\n

\n

I can’t even come up with a better idea. I was told I should do room based pong, but how does that work? Is the couch the paddle? What’s the ball?<\/p>\n

\n

I was also told to do a platforner, but how does that fit the theme? People said they couldn’t come up with ideas for Ancient Tech., but I could easily come up with an idea for that. This? I have \u00a0writers’ block.<\/p>\n

\n

Should I make a game around writers’ block? In the study room? Oh, great. I can’t come up with any ideas for that either.<\/p>\n

\n

I’ll try to slap something together by monday, but… uh… hm… er… uh… what?<\/p>\n

\n

What if I make a room in Unity. Then make a button that says “escape” would that work? How much detail should I put into the room? Should be a blank screen that has a button that says “escape”?<\/p>\n

\n

Ugh. Writers’ Block is the worst.<\/p>\n

\n

Can y’all pick a better theme next time? Like Underground? Or “The Rules Change as You Play”? Or Even “Small World” or “5 minutes”?<\/p>\n
