My starting idea was kind of a tamagotchi RPG. Single creature on creature battles, so it looks a lot like pokemon when a fight starts. You dont have any actions in-battle right now, they’re automated. Not sure where this is going to go, im basically improvising as I go. Tomorrow I add actual choices to the combat, but its always going to be somewhat automated, I want the battles to be very quick. Other than that, idea is still vague. You go around eating food. Any excess food you eat turns into Evolution points, which arnt used yet. Got to think about all that. Sleep now!

Its a terrible idea because you are unlikely to be able to make it interesting at all in that amount of time, just functional. Also, because they tend to have a lot of different menus and crap, it piles up into a whole lot of slow tedium.
