**Game Idea:**
**Title:** Eco Empires
**Genre:** 2D Idle Simulator
**Target Audience:** Casual players, environmentalists, and fans of city-building games
**Core Gameplay Mechanics:**
* Players take on the role of an eco-warrior, tasked with restoring a polluted planet to its former glory
* The game features a procedurally generated map, divided into hexagonal tiles, each representing a unique ecosystem (e.g., forests, oceans, deserts)
* Players must collect and upgrade eco-friendly technologies to purify the environment, reuse resources, and create sustainable infrastructure
* The game progresses through an idle system, where players earn resources and experience points even when not actively playing
* A dynamic weather system and day-night cycles affect the gameplay, with certain resources being more abundant during specific times or weather conditions
**Setting:**
* The game takes place on a futuristic, polluted planet, where corporations have ravaged the environment for resources
* Players must rebuild and restore the ecosystem, creating a thriving, sustainable world
**Brief Storyline:**
* In the year 2154, humanity has exhausted the planet's resources, leaving behind a toxic wasteland
* A group of environmental scientists, known as the Eco Warriors, emerge to reclaim the planet and restore balance to nature
* Players take on the role of an Eco Warrior, tasked with rebuilding and preserving the planet's ecosystems, while uncovering the secrets behind the corporations' destructive practices
**Developer Logic Notes:**
* Use Roblox's built-in 2D grid system to create the procedurally generated map
* Implement a resource system, where players can collect and upgrade eco-friendly technologies, such as solar panels, wind turbines, and recycling facilities
* Design a weather system that affects resource availability and gameplay, using a combination of predefined weather patterns and random events
* Create a day-night cycle, influencing the behavior of certain resources and NPCs (e.g., nocturnal animals provide bonus resources at night)
* Develop an idle system, where players earn resources and experience points based on their progress, even when not actively playing
* Include social features, such as leaderboards and special rewards for top-ranked players
