Video Game Idea: Asymmetrical multiplayer golf game where some of the players are golfers trying to complete the game and some of the players are alligators trying to keep them from doing that.

when people refer to canon story-relevant kingdom hearts games as ‘spinoffs’ it makes me sad not only for the obvious reasons i always say but also bc like man i WISH this series had spinoffs. imagine what they could do if they had permission from nomura to truly go off the rails and ignore the greater canon for a second and just do some fun whimsical plotless thing in an alternate universe. imagine a fishing/boating game on destiny islands. kh fighting game. it is an injustice that we have been deprived of kingdom karts. can anyone hear me

The trouble with trying to get into very niche multiplayer titles is that there's always this core group of like half a dozen players who've been fighting each other on a daily basis since pre-alpha and are the only ones who give the developers consistent feedback, and now the game's entire meta revolves around the personal idiosyncrasies of these five or six specific guys in a way that's balanced and competitive when taken on its own terms, but melts foreign organisms on contact.

Kenma, 2:45 am

writing/warmup game closed!

kenma; 2:45am --

he's always been a late sleeper, or -- a very, very early one -- you meet him in a midnight lobby, through pixels on a screen, on opposite ends of the world.

"isn't it like... super late for you?" you ask

"or it could just be super early," kenma responds.

"ugh, loser," you tease, rolling your eyes, even though you know he can't see you; somehow, you think he knows about the lopsided grin spreading across your face.

"mm," he hums, not an agreement but not a rejection either, even as the pair of you get dropped into a game with three other strangers, one of whom immediately calls you a "dumb bitch" the moment he hears your voice.

kenma stays quiet, but there's a distinct edge to the way he plays. it's pointed, savage -- and when he speaks, it's in low, quick words. when the game ends, the guy is gushing because he hadn't realized he was playing with the kodzuken --

"for the first and last time," kenma says coolly. the guy goes quiet, before chuckling and attempting a joke about the randomness of getting dropped into a game together.

"no," kenma cuts in, his words stiff, "i prefer not to team with misogynists -- and especially not incompetent ones."

he exits the team and pings you on dm's to ask if you're okay. you grin, joining voice in a private channel.

"wow, white knight much?" you ask, though your cheeks are a little warm.

"sorry, i know you don't need someone to fight your battles for you -- even in game, you're pretty damn good --" he says, his words coming faster now.

"thanks," you reply, cheeky even as you tug at the ends of your hair, reveling in the tenderness note to his voice as he continues to ramble.

"i just... i hate guys who judge people based on gender or looks or whatever. and i really hate guys who are shitty at the game and prejudiced."

you laugh, nodding along, "he was pretty bad."

kenma sighs, "he really was."

you glance at the time, "you should get some sleep. didn't you say you're meeting high school friends tomorrow for some volleyball?"

"yeah... guess i should."

you purse your lips, waiting.

"do you..." he pauses, clears his throat, "uh -- are you playing again tomorrow?"

you bite back a giggle, "maybe... if i can find someone good enough to keep up."

right after the line drops, you see a notification pop up --

kodzuken has sent you a friend request!

I think game archipelagos/multiworld randomizers are the IDEAL way to play games with friends and I will die on this hill. I've been playing multiple archipelagos with my friends and oh my god it is genuinely the best way to both play together and play single player games separately.

You may ask "Well what the hell is it?" and I'll explain with an example of my last game session I am playing Terraria My Boyfriend is playing a Stardew randomizer My Partner is playing Legend of Zelda Link to the Past randomizer My roommate is playing Legend of Zelda OoT randomizer I beat a boss in Terraria which gives me an achivement. Instead of that boss being checked off in my world, it gives my BF an upgraded farming level in Stardew. Roommate opens a chest and sends me Hermes Boots. I use those to get the achievement for crafting Terraspark boots and now Partner has the Master Sword. It goes on like this, where you might get something from your own world but you can also end up giving your friend in an entirely different game items as well. Truly the best kind of Singleplayer Together AND IT CAN BE ASYNCHRONUS, meaning you don't have to play at the same time and instead you can do a long running game where "Oh hey I'm at work and Roomate got me Post-Goblin Army so now I can craft better gear once I find the NPC, nice!" And also for my systems/plurals out there? You can very easily play with your headmates by each of you running your own game in an archipelago session.
