Link to the reddit submission: Riot Game Idea
Hi everyone. I am working on a game that incorporates protests/riots, where you gather like-minded people, protest against an idea/act (could be a real life conflict: Gaza, Ukraine, etc.). You control the crowd, from building protest signs to making molotov cocktails. The police would also have lines according to how much threat you seem to impose. Strategy and choice making is essential, as each side has a morale system (in real life police/civilians can rout and flee). You don't even have to stop there, you can continue on and create an entire revolution (hoping to implement that as well).
So what I am having trouble on is the concept and how it will work. One person (urbanknight4) on reddit suggested that I create a strategy/rpg type of game with an isometric view. I recently played A Dark Room, and I really like the text-box style. It is simple to make, yet has an effect on the person playing. If anyone has any ideas I am more than happy to hear them, and I am also looking for artists/developers to work on this with. Thanks!
