I need ideas.

I'm thinking on some things I want to make, but can't decide. I am choosing from:

A Pokemon RPG,
A Pokemon platformer, where you are the Pokemon,
A educational game, preferably maths and science,
or you can suggest your own. Please help!

I need ideas.

Hi there Mr.ShinyRedGenesect. That's a long name. A few months ago I tried making an educational game for toddlers. I got the idea from ABCMouse.com. I saw the commercials and thought, “Why aren't commercials for my educational game on TV?” Then I realized two things.

1. It costs like, a gazillion million billion infinity buckaroos for a commercial, and I don't have a single penny.
2. I don't have an educational game.

And then asked myself two things

1. Me? Yes. Am I broke because I spent all my money for a commercial? Probably.
2. Me? What now!?!?!? Should I make an educational game. Probably.

I rage-quit working on my game.

Perhaps we could create a collab for an educational game!

If you don't want to, you could join my collab for a coding languge! I have no employees so far. Click here to check it out.

P.S. If we do an educational game, don't make me the artist. Just sayin'

I need ideas.

I made a list of game ideas you can program. They're specifically designed to be simple and doable: http://inventwithpython.com/blog/2012/02/20/i-need-practice-programming-49-ideas-for-game-clones-to-code/

Things like RPGs involve a lot of graphics, level design, and testing. It might not be a good idea to work on that as your game project. But a lot of arcade-style games have simple mechanics that are easier to code.
