I'd like to point out that each and every one of you reading this has the potential to host your own game. Yes, even those without accounts; all you have to do is make one. We've had, what, four different people starting their own games here? When the Sporum was in its golden age, people were going in and starting games like there was no tomorrow. Even today, they start new ones now and then.
And I don't think they have to be Thrive-related. The Sporum's about Spore, but, like this forum, it's a community forum. Therefore, forum games and roleplays can be about anything. There's this one that popped up over there where people play as deities, there's one about kaiju that's been around, and there was an Ark: Survival Evolved RP not too long ago. The Sporum Dimensional Clash or whatever it's called deserves mention.
What say you guys?

I've been thinking about making my own game(s) but I didn't really have any ideas :/. Right now, I remembered an RP I did irl with a friend and LEGOs (my friend made some awesome spaceships and mechas out of LEGOs), and it was a scifi/horror adventure with space marines and the main antagonist was a mutant-virus-hivemind thing. I even came up with drawings of the various enemies we could encounter. Ah, good times!  |

I just realized I might not have worded things correctly. Uhh, games as in forum games. Games on forums. RP's and such. Like the other ones in this subboard.

Yeah yeah I had understood. I wasn't implying to do real-life RP which will be impossible to do since we're scattered all over the world. Now for a forum game, we could do the scifi/horror thing I described above, or an "alien zoo" RP, or a science/culture quizz... I don't know I have so many ideas :/

I started an RP about alien monster hunters. That help? Here's a link to the Sporum roleplay board. Feel free to dig around and find cool ideas. Take a look.I think what made the roleplays in this subboard successful was the element of interaction. Even the humble Google Picture War is a showcase of how instrumental interaction is. We can all write a story, but there's a dynamic made when other people are making it with you page by page. So, interaction is key. EDIT: While I fix the link, is your avatar changing because that creature's evolving or what? I thought it was some pale thing on a beach cliff, but now it's that pteranodon centipede. |

EDIT: While I fix the link, is your avatar changing because that creature's evolving or what? I thought it was some pale thing on a beach cliff, but now it's that pteranodon centipede. It is evolving in a sense. It's just an organism concept I've been working on for a few days now. I call it "The blanket monster" (I'm trying to come up with a better name) Pteranodon centipede is an interesting concept, but those yellowish things on its edges are actually feelers. The blanket monster is blind and relies on sound, and a very acute sense of smell and touch to detect its environment. I'm kind of torn between trying to evolve into the blanket monster or another creature I came up with in the Forum Game Competition... |

What about a God RP? Or something..
(Like the one on the sporum)
The gods (players) could grow over the course of the game
Increasing in power. Or something..

I would like to make my own RP, but the problem is that I'm not sure if I would be a good Game Master :S. I'm more used of being a participant among others

Lucky for you I just created a thread for that purpose! Look for the Forum Games Ideas thread in the Forum Games section. You can drop off your ideas for others who may want to manage it.
