Description
Welcome to the Game Name Game event! The goal of the event is to take a game name from below, create a synopsis, mockups and concept art, and pitch it to RMN!

GO AND VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE!
Voting ends Friday.

The genesis for this idea came from this game name ideas thread, and that is from where the list of available game names for this event have been compiled.
This is a short event.
You are not going to be making a game. You will be making a pitch and mockup and description of a game. The challenge will be to come up with a good idea for a game based on the name alone! Also, the game submission doesn't have to be funny or a joke - serious game idea entries are welcome.
First, pick a game name from the list below! And then provide the following:
Mockup the Game!
Type of game
The coolest unique thing about it
Give context
Describe an example of play
Create 3 mockup images (minimum)
What question is your game trying to answer?
Pitch the Game!
Short pitch - in 15 words or less pitch your game.
Long pitch - write the content that would show up on the back of the game box
Description on RMN - write the description as you would present it on RMN
An explanation of the above submission requirements...
The type of game would be akin to its genre (or blend of genres), try to use a word that reflects what you actually do in the game. ie- "Platformer", "2D exploration", "top-down hack-n-slash".
For the coolest unique thing, you can summarize drastically. We don't need to know how it works, but we want to know why it's cool. ie- "you can manage four parties of heroes at once!"
Next give us some context: who am I, where am I, what am I trying to do? The plot will never sound good in ten words, but the fantasy might. You're a ninja? You're a knight? You're a ninja-knight saving kittens? You're a kitten-knight saving ninjas? Give us the setting or framework of where the game takes place, and the story behind it. You can go into greater detail here, if required. Also spoilers are allowed.
Now describe a moment the player can experience that's typical of the game, and illustrates the best of what you've just told us. Explain the gameplay.
The mockups can be concept art, rips from other games amalgamated into a new frame of reference (this is pretty common in the industry (most movie industry but hey)), game titlescreen, storyboards or wireframes. Try to explain the aesthetic.
Lastly, what question is your game trying to answer? You might not realize it, but your game is answering a question. Games are a form of self-expression (like any other artform), and as such give a venue for us to answer questions we might have. Seeing as how games are primarily about gameplay, it follows that your question will be about gameplay mechanics. Like, "What if you had a platformer, but played as an enemy?", "What if you extended the concept of the multiparty dungeons in Final Fantasy VI to the entire game?", "What if a traditional RPG had non-traditional classes?". Figure this out for your own game.
For the Short pitch, you have to get to the point, incredibly quickly, in plain and simple language. This is critical to pitching your game. GET. OUR. ATTENTION. 15 words might be too much! Shoot for 10 or less. Imagine you are in an elevator with a game publisher and you had 30 seconds to make your case. Go!
For the long pitch write the content that would show up on the back of the game box. A player is attracted to your cover art and short pitch, and grabs the game for further inspection. You have about three sentences to hook him and about three more to sell it. Go!
This time, the game is on RMN, and your potential player saw your main image, title and short description and clicks on your gameprofile. Write the description as you would present it on RMN, so that he PLAYS your game. Go!

I will select a winner from the list of submissions after the community voting period (The submission deadline is May 5th, and the voting ends May 9th). The voting will factor into my decision but won't (necessarily) be the winner of the community vote.
The copy of RMVXA will be delivered via Steam. You will need a steam account to receive your prize. If you already have RMVXA I have some alternate prizes for you to choose from.
(If you want to be a judge, send me a PM and we can work something out. I am limiting the judging panel to 5 if there is that much interest.)

CloseOops, I think I messed up the list of submitted pitches for some reason. My bad...
Anyways, here's my pitch:
Justice, Power, Love, Anger, Hatred, Beauty, Revenge, Jealousy, Annoyance, Affairs, Drama, Cowardice, and the One Potato Chip That Started It All
Pitched by: Kuraido (That's a darn long title, let's just name it "B.A.J.J.A.R.D.P.A.R.C.H and the One P-Chip That Started it All" pretty pleeeeease? :P)
Type of game:
- 2D Traditional RPG
The coolest unique thing about it:
- You get to experience and use different kinds of alchemy
Give context:
- You're a potato-chip-homunculi/chimera-slaying alchemist
Describe an example of play:
- Each kind of alchemy requires different type of controls to execute them
Create 3 mockup images (minimum):
What question is your game trying to answer?:
- How will you be able to stop the upcoming disaster that started from a single potato chip?
Pitch the Game!

Pitch the Game!
Short pitch:
Pick a fight against homunculi and chimeras borned from a single potato chip
Long pitch:
Once upon a time, in a world where Alchemy is the mainstream and trend, a Potato Chip (P-Chip for convenience sake), which is said to be the beginning of all things, fell from the skies and broke to twelve fragments. These P-Chip fragments later on gave birth to Twelve Homunculi. Each homunculi refered to themselves as the embodiment of Justice, Power, Love, Anger, Hatred, Beauty, Revenge, Jealousy, Annoyance, Affairs, Drama and Cowardice respectively and they were later known as "The Twelve Sins". Moreover, the P-Chip crumbs gave birth to creatures known as "Chimeras" and now roam free within the land.
Join Kuraido the sodium alchemist and his companions as he embarks on a journey to prevent the Chimeras from running amok and put a stop to the The Twelve Sins from executing their sinister plans.
Join Kuraido the sodium alchemist and his companions as he embarks on a journey to prevent the Chimeras from running amok and put a stop to the The Twelve Sins from executing their sinister plans.
Description on RMN:
Play as Kuraido, a young man adept at sodium alchemy, who is determined to uncover the truth regarding the Potato Chip (or P-Chip) that was said to be the beginning of all things. Rumors say that this P-Chip was dropped by the gods, broke into twelve P-Chip fragments and scattered around the continent of Alkhemia leaving P-Chip crumbs on its wake. Kuraido sets on a journey to find these P-Chip fragments across the continent.

Tides of Time
Enter the Past: Change the Future
Over a thousand years ago existed a civilization known as Atlantis.
Atlantis was a civilization without equal, even by today's standards.
But what happened? Some say it sank into the ocean...
But how could such an advanced civilization not foresee the Tides of Time.
Royce is a young boy who has just finished his undergraduate degree in Physics.
As a part of his graduate studies he is exploring the mechanics of time.
In a freak accident Royce is transported back to the past. To his surprise he
is transported to Atlantis just days before the catastrophe that would
end its civilization. It's up to Royce to solve the mysterious events that lead
up to the end of Atlantis and even possibly change the future.

Would you like fries with that?
...sometimes, it's possible to love something a little too much..
Type of game
2D Top-Down Puzzle/Horror RPG
The coolest unique thing about it
Obviously, it's the clown.
Give context
John Smith has had an irrational fear of clowns for as long as he can remember, and has thought of many creative ways to avoid meeting them... until now.
Describe an example of play
(below)Prevent the clown from entering your house, stealthily retrieve french fries from the front door, diplomatic negotiation with a dreaded foe, sneak into a highly-guarded-and-equipped-with-cutting-edge-security-systems restaurant, and 28 more puzzle-RPG stages.
Mockups

What question is your game trying to answer?
How could someone with a profound love of McD's french fries obtain them without facing their worst nightmare?
Pitch the Game!
Short pitch - in 15 words or less pitch your game.
White powdered face? Bulbous red nose? It's the Devil incarnate... but those fries are to die for.
Long pitch - write the content that would show up on the back of the game box
...Sometimes, it's possible to love something a little too much. In order to taste a piece of heaven, John Smith, your average french-fry-loving office worker, must invent various lengthy, complex, and often ridiculous ways to avoid a confrontation with his worst, white-powdered, squeaky-red-nosed nightmare.
Description on RMN - write the description as you would present it on RMN
When everything comes down to either the french fries or the clown, there's some serious decisions that need to be made. John Smith, an average office worker, is only able to make it through the day by the tantalizing promise of gorging himself on his favorite food. But recently, it seems that the only employee at McD's is the Devil himself- Ronald McDonall. Will John find within his ordinary self the courage (or stupidity) to continue pursuing his taste of heaven, when faced with such a formidable foe?
Features:
- 30 puzzle stages with 5 adjustable difficulty levels! (Extremely Easy to Despairingly Difficult!)
- Coulrophobia!
- Cutscenes galore!
Ex:
John: (Ahh, nothing beats good fries after a tiring day at work.)
John: (...)
John: (Did McD's just switch out their employees?)
John: (... waitaminute.)
John: (Powdered face... bulbous nose... GAHH! IT'S A CLOWN!!)
-Later-
John: I- I'd like to have some fr-fries delivered to my h-house.
???: Alright, I'll come and deliver them to you personally.
John: !!!
John: N-no, y-you really sh-shouldn't bother.
???: It's my job. I'll be there in ten minutes.
???: *click*
- Suspense until the grand finale!
- A wondrously haunting soundtrack, created by a world-famous and long dead composer!

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

If it bothers you, maybe do that one and then also do a second submission?

Multiple people can use the same game name if they want!
Sure, but an entry with the same name, and genre, and similar setting details, without any mention until after the first one is finished and posted is probably going to look suspicious. If I follow through with my original idea, there's no way to prove that I didn't just steal the idea from GoatBoy.
Or maybe I'm just being paranoid. I have no idea.
