It would be cool if someone could figure out ways to create subgames like pacman, and other old atari games with MT.
pacman could be a maze map... and using the pick up items by walking over them to pick up the dots (score goes up as this is done), create a ghosts mob to chase you down, and every so often a power dot which causes you to kill the ghosts when you run into them....
IDK... something like that?
A lot of parkour (?) maps around... maybe one could be turned into (can't think of the name now)<edit Pitfall is the name of the game..., but it was running through a jungle, jumping over snakes, crocs, etc. jump to catch the vine and swing over holes... etc..
Maybe something like Donkey kong? try to climb a mountain while rocks are coming down at you? (falling nodes could be used for this, maybe?)
I think a bit of what causes this stagnation in subgames design/ideas is (and I'm sure some will feel offended by this but none is meant) a lack of creative/different thinking.
Everyone is trying to create that subgame which will maybe be chosen to be the new "official" MT game? I think that is really what many people are locked onto mentally.
Or, maybe they are just creating mT as what they feel it should be but, yeah.... there is definitely a locked onto psyche around doing the same ole' when subgames are concerned
I realize, while I can come up with decent ideas... I am definitely, definitely not skilled in programming/coding. And even though I wish I were, I actually don't have the desire nor motivation to try to learn to be one now.
And if I ever created something really great in this realm... you can rest assured it would be by pure and absolute accident... :P
Flick?... Flick who?
