#432A detective game that actually makes you feel like a detective. That means gathering clues, using deduction, and making accusations.
Game Maker's Toolkit has a really good video on why it's difficult: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwV_mA2cv_0
Return of the Obra Dinn and Her Story are the best I've played so far, each excelling at different things.

#433I wish there was a game that was hosted on an enormous and powerful server. Imagine a game that is designed to run on terabytes of memory, even more storage and a whole bank of GPUs. Basically a game that takes full advantage of a super computer, played remotely. You could have unprecedented detail, full physics and ray tracing, maps as large as planets with full detail and no loading times. Fully destructible environments.

#434I want a sort of civilization-but-for-countries. E.g. you are the newly elected president of Afghanistan/North Korea/Iraq/Other etc - now go rebuild infrastructure etc, set policies, see how the country develops as a result. E.g. do you invest in universal healthcare, or transport infrastructure? Is transport infra required while your country is still largely subsistence farming?. What about education - save money th…
I think Paradox's games would be up your alley, with the upcoming Victoria 3 probably being the best fit due to its focus on economic details and sociopolitical dynamics.

#435I want to play as the AI that helps people survive deep space travel, but I want it rogue like, with tons of builder/resource driven tradeoffs

#436Gravity-oriented shooter where you fight on tiny planets with primitive weapons.
Because the "planets" are so small, gravity and Coriolis forces influence projectiles: hitting the enemy often requires shooting over the horizon, or relying on the planet's rotation so your spear lands in the right place.
Running fast or jumping off a tall structure can put you into low orbit. Planet sizes range from about the volume of a house to the volume of a skyscraper. Planet shape influences your tactics - cube planets have less gravity near the corners, spinning ringworlds let you jump from one side to the other, etc.
Super Mario Galaxy plus Fortnite

#438An airport simulator game. You have to manage aircraft, prices, service, security, disasters, policy, economy etc.

#439[Borrowers: The Game] You live as tiny mouse-sized humans existing with regular humans who should never know your presence as you occupy the walls and spaces in their home. Every day you must hunt for food, which involves collecting gear to traverse spaces (paperclip + string = grappling hook and rope, matchstick = torch, plastic bag = parachute) to reach places where food is stored (i.e. the kitchen - defended by th…
This is almost like a cross between Pikmin and Little Nightmares. Cool idea.

#440Weird thought but one where it is a simulation of the world/(the player) makes real money.
As in you could clock in/do a job in this 3D environment. I realize probably not efficient but it would be for say bed ridden/disabled people that can use their brain but not their body.
