A great idea that just won't work....

My current assignment at Uni is to create the packaging for a childrens game involving numbers.

Unfortunately, when our tutor first mentioned that we had to think up a suitable plot for this game, the first thought that came into my head was 'The Land of Integer is being over-run by militant Fractions'. Despite the fact that this would be hilarious if I did use it, I don't think I'd get away with it, the problem is, it's stuck in my head :badgrin:

wow. I just had flashbacks to making a totally kick-arse Jurassic Park boardgame at primary school. It had a clay model of the visitor centre and everything! :D

Sweet. I made a Star Trek Boardgame, but it was during secondary. It had at first, four races, and about ten starships per race. Each ship was basically a small piece of card with a ship/name printed onto it. It was basically a game of chance, where you rolled the dice to move pieces, and rolled a seperate dice to launch attacks (all you had to do was roll a higher number than the target's shields to kill it). There was also money and some other features which I created. It was simple and fun and played it with a lot of people. :)

heh, if you get rich off of it then you have to give up credit for talking you into it ;)

Haha I thought about it, but have no idea how to go about publishing it or even where to start with producing it. Not. A. Clue. I'd need a prototype first too, the one I have is so old! Also I'd have to create all new stuff, since I couldn't use any brand names (Trek or not).

you can make a prototype with the Trek name, as long as you don't try to sell it for profit, before you have a company that can get the rights for you.
