This Game Will Randomly Generate Dozens Of Other Games

Ever feel like the games you’re playing are a bit too formulaic? Wish you had a machine that could combine elements of each one into something new and exciting? Well, if the folks behind GameTron 1000 have their way, you’ll get exactly that.

The concept is a bit batty: It’s a PC/Smartphone game that spins a wheel to randomly generate gameplay elements and combine them into a brand-new game. Which you can then play.

GameTron 1000 is being crowdfunded by Mojo Bones, who have put together the pitch video above for their Kickstarter campaign. It takes a little bit too long to get to the point, but the once it arrives, the point is quite interesting. Basically, it’s like Scribblenauts, but for video game ideas. And, if you support ’em, you’ll get to submit your own ideas for variables, Cards Against Humanity-style.

Is this too ambitious to ever succeed? Or more doable than you might think? Time will tell. But hey, at least it’s not another adventure-game reboot!
