Oh my what talent! I was looking at a lot of the blogs last night and this really got me wanting to do a game. I know I'm late coming in but as they say---better late than never. No I am not going to put a game on here because I am new and yes intimidated by all of this!
What I really want to say though is THANK YOU everyone for sharing your inspiration and talent, it helps me a lot.
After reading all of this I couldn't stop dreaming about it---yes, this means no sleep! Came in to work first thing this morning and decided I had to do a quick rough draft of what kind of game I would like to do. I think I may be dreaming too big and I'm sure it will take me a while to do it. But I was wonder if it was even possible--I think it is using variables*?%*-!?. Before I venture this can I get some input on if anyone thinks it is doable? Below is the template of what my thoughts are---

Scene 1: Your Travel Style
Slide: Title:
On-Screen Narration
As questions what kind of style do you like for traveling (luxury, flying, party life, relaxing)---this creates a goal for them to work towards.
Start with 100 pts.
Pick transportation option: various vehicles (car, van, trailer—not too nice because they only have 100 pts.
Pick destination option to travel to: camping, backyard, resort, beach, and museum (each option is a point value. some over 100pts some not so they get excited to get more points).
Points are taken away as they make these options. Can go negative.

Scene 2: Travel destination
Slide: 2.1 Title: Address Source
On-Screen Narration
This is the option that they picked.
Clips of the option picked. And information of what kind of vacation (fourwheeling, swimming, site seeing etc).
As they go along they get options of excursions (fourwheeling, boat, tour etc). They choose these excursion by getting points.
To get points they go to question bank and answer questions. They earn points for right answer, get second chance for wrong answer (?no points taken away for wrong answer).
When all questions are answered the vacation is over and they go back to the page to choose another destination.
