Hi, I'm a programmer. I already work full-time for a video game company, and in my free time I'd like to make my own game—even a small one—to sell on Steam, and maybe eventually become an indie developer. I’ve also pitched the idea to a couple of colleagues, but we just can’t seem to find the right one. Our ideas are either too complex in terms of the time required or in terms of the graphical assets we’d need—which we obviously wouldn’t be able to produce (I can model a few things, but I don’t consider myself particularly skilled at it). Plus, practically every kind of game already exists on Steam, so it seems impossible to bring something new to the table. What would you do in my/our shoes to come up with an idea?
