    Torn between 2 game ideas:

    a. It’s a game for Luanti. The premise is that the Earth 1000 years from now is a wasteland of robots and toxic waste, after humans abandoned it centuries beforehand. You are sent there to investigate the planet, but things go wrong and your ship crash lands shortly after you awaken from your cryo-sleep. You run through quests in order to try and survive and fix everything. But along the way you find these weird animal crests that give you different abilities. It would be a challenging game as resources are purposefully scarce, unless you fight off the deadly robots for scraps or the dangerous mutant animals for food.

    b. This one is a combination of Sonic Riders 1 and the trick system of the Skate series; if they had a baby this would be it. Set in a world of anthro animals. The story mode would be split into 2 different stories following 2 different 3 person teams. Team one consists of real chill people: 2 men and a woman in their mid-20s. They’re missions would be centered around the trick system. The other team would consist of the leader of the other teams younger brother and his 2 teammates ( both women ). Younger brother is much more serious and consequently, his missions focus more on pure racing.

    I already have a good idea for an ad for game b, too. So, the hover skateboard like things the people ride are called Steamboards ( since the first ones were steam powered ), just fir context. The ad starts with captain of team a riding his steam board across a desert like flat area. He ends up easily passing a driver in a red race kart wearing a red hat. Then he ends up stopping to quickly charge up his board, thinking out loud: “Wouldn’t want to be that slow.” Then a blue blur on what looks like a steamboard comes flying by. Captain shrugs at the camera and thinks out loud: “Can’t be faster than everyone.” Then hopes back onnhis board and the ad transitions to gameplay clips. All before showing the game title, in a very title screen way. Ad ends there.
