Neuromancer, with out updating it for technology. I want that phone bank scene.
I'm sure there is, but they're unknown to me. I'm not going to fund stuff already owned and made and has a bunch of sequels and spinoffs. I'm going to find and fund something new, something that the other people with money aren't taking a risk on.
Maybe Rogue System, if I am remembering the name right. It had a Kickstarter that failed to meet the minimum, but God damn it sounds like a bad ass idea. A space sim where you would have to actually re-route power through other systems when the normal link has been damage and basically all the stupid little jargon ideas they do to solve things in Star Trek would be mechanics in the game. If you wanted. It would have had settings for so much shit to make it as arcadey or as realistic as you wanted.
Ambitious as hell, but the developer had videos actually showing off some of the mechanics in action and it was as good as I imagined it could be and I'm still kinda upset that its Kickstarter failed.
I would acquire the rights to Tales From The Afternow by Sean Kennedy(The Fucking Man!)
Make a proper hbo quality(westworld level of production) out of it.
Then pay the author to write something that could be turned into a trilogy based on it, but set a thousand years forward.
And create a video game series using the main charqcters various life extensions set between the original series and the new trililogy, where hes on the same space ship but its like the outerlimits and you never know if the next episode is a continuation or a different era because the ship, much like in red dwarf, is essentially an immortal unchanging character
Definitely Scavengers Reign season 2. That show is so unique and refreshing.
A solid next Gen remake of Rocket Jockey and Road Rash
I would like to see Star Citizen come to fruition like it was still the era where microtransactions didn't exist.
A live-action or animated adaptation of Worm.
Pump as much money as humanly possible into the JWQS / Clear and Muddy Loss of Love animation they're currently making.
Straight up entirely remake Borderlands 3.
A Pokemon game like Colosseum & XD, but only going up to Gen 4, I don't really like the direction the designs went after that.
Fund a proper Pacific Rim sequel.
A high budget Bionicle game would be neat.
And, provided I can pay money for a licence or just buy the original IPs, I'd have my favorite fanfics turned into animated shows as well.
Id like to see a dark mirror series of star trek starting from 'evil' Spock sending the crew of the enterprise back to their reality. Following his struggles to convert the Terran Empire into the Federation.
Yes, an rpg vector based video game to play in the browser. Actually trying to rearrange my life so I can make it :)
A great game that uses time traveling as a key gameplay and plot device.
Games with time travel are very rare, there are a couple that come to mind.
Time splitters uses time travel in the plot and very little mechanically.
Achron is an RTS with time travel mechanics that's honestly the only game I've ever played that allows you to time travel freely. E.g. send a scout to the enemy base, he gets killed, so you go back and don't send him.
The Journeyman Project is an old game that seems fond to me, but I'm not sure how it would hold up now.
There’s an answer right there.
I’d like to remake Darkest of Days and let it live up to its potential.
Ski Resort Tycoon.. 3 I think? ... Lots of Tycoon games in fact. Think what could be done with them if they had a big budget nowadays
I would fund a full release of the Divided States, especially if I could fund an entire series of alt history shows.
