PC Games- Animal Game Idea


So, about a year ago i had this crazy idea of an animal game. -I'm pretty sure that you animal lovers out there don't want to make zoo's, take pictures of the animals, or shoot them, you want to BE them. 
 Have you ever heard of Wolfquest? Well, its a great game where you have to survive and BE the animal. And its a FREE downloadable game!  (http://www.wolfquest.org/)
_________________________________________________________________
 Well, my game idea just improves on this: (I also joined Afrika (The PS3 Game) into the idea, because it has amazing graphics)

(this is hard to put in words, so please bare with me)
-I want it to improve on Wolfquest.
-Graphics: Better than Afrika (The PS3 game), i want to make it look REAL, to make it more life like.
-Story: I want the player to feel like they are the animal from the animals eyes. As a base game, I would like it to be set in Africa, in the Masai Mara or something like that. You can choose from a range of carnivores and herbivores to be such as - cheetahs, lions, leopards, gazelle, wildebeest, giraffes, elephants,warthogs and hyenas. All of them and many more. (more will probably be included in later expansions).
-There are to be no parks or humans, just the wild.
-View points - From the animals eyes, a medium shot (like the one in Wolfquest) and a long shot.
-The animal you choose will have to survive in the wild, mate, have cubs and if so, live in a pack and hunt with it and if your a male, protect it. etc.
- There should be vast landscapes, holes in the ground, hills, water holes, grass, mud, trees, forests everything that animals in africa would have in their natural habitat.

-There will also be seasons, such as dry seasons and rainy seasons. 
_________________________________________________________________
Don't get what i mean?

Example 1: A male lion. When he is born he will live in a pack with his mother and siblings, then be kicked out at 2 years old. He would have to survive on his own for a while until he finds a pride to take over, then have cubs, and protect its pride.  Same for a female lion, only, she will not leave the pride. She will stay, have cubs, and hunt with her pride. 
  
Example 2: A wildebeest. He would have to constantly look out for danger, find the best places to graze, fight for the right to mate etc.
 
Example 3: All animals would have to travel to a water hole in the dry season, where crocodiles will be waiting.
_________________________________________________________________
Also, the game should allow any carnivore to kill anything the player wants, providing the animal is strong enough. It will be a constant battle for survival.

I have thought of some expansion packs, such as adding marine wildlife and rainforest animals, more carnivores and herbivores and new maps. 
_________________________________________________________________
So basically just think of real life and try to recreate it into a PC game. Personally, I think any successful game producer has a great chance of producing this game.

There is probably only one game in the world right now that has great animal graphics and scenes - Afrika, for Play Station 3. The only problem is that its for PlayStation 3 and many people don't have one. Almost everyone, or every teenager has a laptop or a PC. So I'm sure that this game would do well if it was made.

Name: Wild-life
OR      It's a Wild-life.

For those of you who want to see this made into a game then please show this blog to all of your animal loving friends, because if enough people see it, i'm sure a game producer is bound to hear about it and actually make this idea into a game!
  
I hope you like the idea,

  1. Sounds like it would be the best game ever. ^^
    After I saw "Eye of the Loepard" I tried to find a game where you are the animal, live the life of an animal of your choice(Ofcouse an animal who lives on the savannah) and hopefully an environment so big you you never could explore it all. Or you had to be diffrent animal to go diffent places. (Thinking of birds right now..) *sighs* Would be the best game ever and I would play it non-stop xD
    Guess it just amatter of time before someone makes it. But hopefully soon!

    *Edited some spelling errors.

  15. I've also had this thought for years. Could be approached with more detail though, as i'd assume asking for the graphics to look "real" is not as easy as it sounds. Think about the hardware demands when trying to play as a lion chasing 500+ NPC Wildebeests with graphics that look "real"? Now that doesnt sound like it would be capable on any teenagers pc/laptop (p.s why only teenagers?). It is quite obvious that a game like this can be made, and I sure ain't gonna be worried about graphics if it comes out! Just keep in mind the limitations to hardware/graphics as well as the amount of processing that would have to take place when rendering LOTS of textures (It may be done but it requires a heck of good pc)

  19. And just when your animal gets old. Then you could take on his/her recent cub etc, and all the animals you play would have a lil' bit different variations and they would differ few cm in height and in color and possibly some that have ran much could improve their endurance and strengh. After your character gets to have for example cubs. Then some of these skills and outlook would be passed on to these cubs. And then you could begin playing them when your character get old. <3

    I've been thinkin' this idea over and over for who knows how many years and once gave up already on the idea. But this post broght it back alive again.
