I really want to try making a video game
I've had an idea in my head for at least the last year for a game that I think would be pretty cool.
I really like pen and paper hexcrawls and to my knowledge they aren't represented in video games at all. I also really like games like Monster Prom where you get a little short story/scenario and you have to make a choice and that affects your stats. It would be fun to merge those concepts.
So you are doing the hexcrawl and as you traverse the map you run into random events and have to make decisions and then eventually you find a dungeon. And your success in the dungeon is based off of the stats/items that you have accumulated by doing the hexcrawl portion.
Since the majority of the content would be writing-based I think it would be mechanically pretty simple to create something like this using crude graphics.
