I am pretty happy with some of the themes in the final round! Both of my favorite themes managed to get through :)

What I usually look for in a theme is something that isn't too restricting and can be used for every genre.

Folklore

This is the theme I am looking forward to the most, we already checked out some of our local folklore and found some interesting ones that could be used for a fun game! It isn't too restricting either, you can make a puzzle game or even a shooter depending on which folklore you use (you can even combine multiple folklores to create your own story!)

Roadtrip

This theme could be interpreted in a couple of ways; A game about traveling (what conflicts are on your way?), A management game where you manage your friend group from ruining things (Maybe similar to the business minigame from Yakuza 0?).

A single resource & Space is limited

These two can be used in a lot of ways too! Maybe a game about a shrinking room; win or be squashed. One battery; where to use it and when?

Not my favorite themes as I am not sure if every genre could be applied to these themes (Single resource shooting game?).

Conclusion

Looking forward to this weekend!

If you'd like, tell us about your favorite themes, or maybe some concepts you are thinking about!
