Game developers get their ideas from brainstorming, consulting gaming communities, spinning off other video games with flaws, and trending themes in gaming or entertainment cultures. Superhero movies are an example of how superhero games are inspired.
Here is a head start if you are thinking of developing a new game:
- Pick two or three of your favorite games and make a mashup. You can also hire a copywriter online for the storyline.
- Find a classic game you played in childhood and wished for a special function. Now is the time to create something similar and more entertaining, and highlight that function.
- Think like a hero or a villain after watching a superhero movie. You can make a character that can have several powers by achieving stages.
- Reading storybooks and watching movies can also spark new ideas.
- Have you ever found a problem and been unable to solve it? There must be many. Think of an interesting solution to a problem.
- Talk to other gamers and listen to their stories and their experience about games. This can also spark a good idea.
