using electric guitar playing to charge batteries.
The entire world within miliseconds is repopulated by Chuck Norrisā. Females and males alike, they are all still Chuck Norris. You somehow feel lonelier in this new world than both the old ones combined.
Water, water everywhere. And not a drop you find attractive.
Survivors should have a hidden sanity score that depletes pretty much anytime they do anything highly unusual or dangerous and increases when they drink alcohol, do drugs or read nonsense books and whatnot.
Should start out with blunted affect, then later full blown PTSD then insanity and mental-illness type character traits. So randomly curling into the fetal position and gently sobbing after they butcher their nth zombie child corpse for mutagen material then like, deteriorate into nightmares and screaming themselves awake sometime after escaping a mine or lab or something. Then schizophrenia and chemical imbalance, mood swings, morale penalties, ect.
Seems kinda weird my survivor gets mauled by extradimensional horrors on route to another tainted meat run to fill up jerry cans of mutagens heās eaten nothing but cooked giant centipede and heās only upset because his raincoat got torn up and heās working in the rain.

this is a thread for joke suggestions. if you actually want it, make a thread about it, if no other thread is suitable.
If you know that it can be accomplished with little to no code work but havenāt got the time, inclination, or setup to code it personally, consider the Needful Things thread, as that oneās supposed to be for SIMPLE-TO-CODE ideas that novice programmers can pick up and PR as part of getting their first few PRs in.
Thanks for not filling Needful Things with ideas that may or may not actually be feasible for novice devs. -KA101
Fixed that for you.
Meth. Not even once.
Jabberlocks. Theyāll smack you in the face if youāre bad at lockpicking.
Ehh, I dunno, it could be sort of like, you have negative sanity, that happens when you believe things that are incorrect, such as that you are the invulnerable reincarnation of Alexander the Great in the land of in the land of rainvbows and spaceberries. There would also be positive sanity, the belief in things that are correct, but that you find intolerable, such as that the Mi-go is causing your world to mimic it, or that everyone you knew wants to eat you now, or that the key to surviving the new world is grinding up dead people and making drinks out of themā¦ The goal would be to maintain a zero sanity, or to find some way to tolerate positive sanity or be functional amidst negative sanity.
Ummm, If you randomly leave bear-traps they should have a chance to spawn dead animals on them, ummm, no wait, that is wrongā¦
Dead animals and survivors should often go zed if you kill them. No, still not rightā¦
Zombie trees!
There is a chance that splints are actually made from zombie wood and are infectious.
If you are fighting blobs there should be a chance for your clothes to become zombified and attack you. Cloth clothes would just tangle you up, but if you used an intact skull for your bone helmetā¦
Zombees.
Yes, insects donāt reach critical turning mass for the goo. But they get huge (like xbox, which should also resurrect), so I donāt see why they canāt BECOME viable zed corpses. I vote zombees for collective mayor. Maybe they have like a zillion stingers per bee or something - itās not like they can die stinging you anymore. The stingers donāt poison any more they just stick you full of goo-laced infection chances. Maybe they drop stingers and you can use them like shivs???
Bee shanks, for the organic hobo in all of us.
I second this motion.
(on an unrelated note, you posted this in 1969. (look at the quote time thingy))
Dermatiks are apparently giant zombie wasps or something. Why not Zombees? Maybe the queen is big enough for critical mass and they produce a hive full of pheromone-driven Zombees. I dunno. It should be a thing because Zombeeeez.

Sorry, I thought my idea was genuinely bad for gameplay reasons and easily programmed. Itād just be flagging actions and events to a counter and it producing messages and status effects and itād make the game unplayable because your survivor would just shake and sob every night over a bottle of gin just after doing routine survivor stuff.
Well, if properly implemented, a rudimentary āstored experiencesā long term memory system could be far better then the current morale system.
Off-topic, this is a decent idea.
zom-bee-hives. They reach critical mass when gathered inside the hive, but become normal again when they leave. So there are, like, normal bees all over the place, and then the hive tries to jump on your head and bite it off, and it is throwing normal bees all over that see their hive attacking you and decide to join in the fun! After a while it throws enough bees away that it turns into a normal hive again and all you have is a cloud of angry bees that need to go make a new zombie-homeā¦

I would 2nd this xP

Sorry, secret out, Iām actually John Titor. I was attempting to retrieve that IBM 5100 Iāve been looking for, but missed my target by about six years due to circumstances outside my calculations. I should have known better than to use local time when browsing the forums.
Shit, this timeline got really weird in a hurry.
Forehead-mounted chainsaw C.B.M. and mouth nose-mounted pneumatic assault rifleā¦
Oh, and an elastic tongue C.B.M. to increase your item pickup range by one.
And a living-metal C.B.M. that turns you into the bad robot from Terminator 2ā¦
An Intro song that is relativly annoying and gets stuck in your head for all eternity
Command mode- where instead of directly controlling one person you control multiple, with simple commands like loot this building and such or drag this for till the end of time. or build this here, perhaphs a construction prebuild template maker, for it taking theresources but having a compleation bar
Self destruct button in the middle of the woods- it will crash your game.
Some animals are secret agents. and wearing fedorasā¦ you thought that squirrels arnāt dangerous, well then see how dangerous they are with 20 mele unarmed and dodge.
command mode is actually an interesting idea.
Intro song? Go further and do a whole animated intro with theme song which is incredibly cheesy but causes an earworm for a god damn eternity.
Anime style, motherfuckers.
