With games like The Culling, Arma III battle royale mode, and H1Z1, the "Hunger Games" style game seems to be gaining popularity. I haven't seen many of those on StarCraft, and I thought maybe I could make one. I make all my maps to have fun and learn so I'd probably make it open source, but if anyone wants to join me, feel free to comment or message me.
Anyway, what are your thoughts on this? What do you guys think would work best? Maybe a true survivalist game where everyone starts with nothing and can find items randomly placed on a map. Or add in heroes, like the co-op commanders who have locked abilities until you find more loot. Another topic that could be problematic is the player count. These days, games over 6 players take absolutely forever to fill up, but those game I mentioned above have up to 64 players in one game, so I'm unsure what to do with that.
