Need some bad game ideas...

A hockey MMORPG.

I'm looking for a little more details hehe. Something that would take at least a minute to explain. :P

Ideally, it shouldn't be too obvious that it's a bad idea, but rather kinda subtle...

"World of Warcraft"

Paint Drying Simulator.

The screen shows a freshly painted wall. You have to click on it when it's dry to win. If you click while it's still wet, you leave fingerprints and lose points.
Also features a multiplayer online mode, where whoever clicks the dry paint first wins!

You could have an expansion pack which offers different brands and colours of paint which all have their own unique drying rates.

just take any old crap from the mainstream, there is plenty bad about most games.

this chap will tell you all about them

Put that game on Facebook and you'll get millions of people playing it instead of doing their job.. :)

I would play that.

On the iPhone too.

It hurts me to admit.. I'd play it multiplayer at least once if there were a freely available multiplayer version. Haha

Solar System Explorer, where you choose some planets, moons, asteroids etc. to send probes to, calculate appropriate launch windows and trajectories, and then follow your probes in real time as they make their way across the solar system. Will your probes reach their destination? Will their instruments fail along the way? Will a Metric/Imperial mixup cause your probe to crash land on Europa? Find out in twelve years!

This would require a few tweaks and slightly more extended gameplay, but it's actually a fantastic idea for touch screen interfaces. Just needs some work.

Also add stuff like turning the phone so that moisture evaporates more quickly, or so that really wet paint settles more evenly across screen.

Perhaps add a challenge mode, where you need to apply 5 layers of paint, and whenever you paint over wet portions, the colors smear, then score according to quality of final painting.

Add ability to import custom bitmaps, apply some artistic filter, then require finger painting to paint-by-numbers, but keeping in mind that colors dry at different rates.

Add micropayment model to purchase fans, hair dryers and similar. Set them up to speed up drying, but leave them facing same spot, and the paint cracks or burns.

Expansion pack: Tatoo artist. Similar challenge, but as you paint, the color smears and obscures the template, and you have only a limited number of wipes, or you lose points for wiping. Winner is one who most accurately reproduces the template. Works on touch phones as well. Hard mode is pressure-sensitive, press too hard, and you damage the skin.

Dammit, this is brilliant. It's like Eve, but with tension.
