I'm making a game. Need ideas.

Well, since this got gravedug (which I totally don't mind), here's a progress report:

- i still got a ton of stuff to do and less than 20 school days to do it in
- woops

some maps!

hmm, might release a demo sometime? I have a ridiculous amount of random junk I'd have to remove first, in addition to the insane amount of copyrighted material.

so, i need names for 10 towns and a few people.

I really don't know if i'm going to be able to finish on time, but I find that I don't really care anyway.

Here's suggestions for towns.
White Camp
Lit Town
Fradeshanville
The other suggestions I suggested before.

For people: Anne, Kay, Mikoll, Vinnie, Reggie, Lysa, Gruty, Fradeshan, other weird names.

So, Just wondering, what are all of the requirements for the project? If the only requirement is "make a video game" and I assume: "turn it in on time", I would HIGHLY suggest putting this on hold as a personal project, and making something quick and easy such as snake or pong. Also some other questions:
What programming languages do you know (if any)?
How much is the project worth?
How much other work do you have (are you allotting lots of time to this)?
Are there any restrictions?

She's using RPG maker, so she obviously has no skill in programming.

Using RPG Maker doesn't mean someone has to have a lack of knowledge in programming.

Edit: Besides, Z could use Scratch.

We had to pick a game engine -- RPGMaker, Unreal, Doom, etc; most of the people in my class are using RPGMaker because we're all really lazy people.

I know HTML & CSS (which don't count), SQL (which wouldn't help at all), a bit of Actionscript 3.0, and Visual Basic. So, no, I don't really know any languages that would be helpful.
The project is worth 60% of this quarter's grade. We do logs of what we plan on doing this week and keep track of what we do day-to-day, in addition to storyboards and a final presentation.
With what other work I have to do, we've recently started doing other assignments -- dreamweaver, final exams, flash -- which cuts into our four hours of time we have in lab. I haven't been doing much outside of school because I am incredibly lazy.

It's supposed to be educational or school appropriate. We need a certain amount of maps, allies, enemies, probably some other stuff.

At this point, it would be simpler to just do what any great company does and just cut out a bunch of stuff and call it a finished product.
