I’m getting Ideas for making a game. Any help would be great ^_^

Do a cute 2D platformer with plenty of humor. Theme it after something popular, like that one half life inspired game.
Doujinshi are popular for a reason. Pick up and play games are much more likely to spread via word of mouth.

How about religious vs. not religious? Barbarians vs. "civilised" people? Tea drinkers vs. Coffee drinkers? Prostitutes vs. Cannibals? Midgets vs. Giants? Men vs. Women?

I think what they were getting at was having a conflict that actually means something instead of the standard, "We're good, you're evil, therefore we must fight... Why? /shrug. You wanna take over the world! (Or) We've been fighting for so long we've forgotten why!"

Well... yes. But can't you see the POTENTIAL here? Any of them have great potential really... if you do it right.

Yup, most games have the good vs. evil angle, but good vs. evil faction seems a little too categorical.
Kannato:
Im mostly trying to get ideas to invent the world. Right now i imagine it to be a Fantasy type game.
So far we have 3 races.
-----------------------------------------------
Races-
Neko ppl (figuring out the name)
Humans(called Letalis)
Very Tall arched back Blind ppl(called Chronicler’s)
------------------------------------------------
Any ideas will help the story go along.
BuriaL:
Cant say iam much of a fan of the alignment systems. The reason is simple, there are no good or evil. There is only cultures and ideals, and hypocrisy.
If you really want to split a game into factions, you need a good reason for it. I suggest adding deities, then you have a reason and a driving force.
Add virtues, enemies and friends to the gods.
How far along is this game anyways?
