Game Idea: Taser Quest!

I need your help with a game idea. I want to pitch a game to developers, that memorializes the heroic actions of the University of Florida campus police. We have to hurry and strike while the iron is hot, because just yesterday a UF student was, thankfully, tasered while asking John Kerry whether he was a member of the super-secret-elite Skull and Bones society. (Don’t worry, the cops got the guy before he could say anything that made the Senator uncomfortable.)

Here’s what I have so far.

  • The plot of the game would be simple. Use as much force as possible to ensure that your target, armed with a book and a verbal agenda +1, is not able not ask a difficult or uncomfortable question of a former presidential candidate.
  • If the suspect resists your suppression of their so-called “right to free speech”, you get to electrocute the living snot out of him with your taser. But don’t worry, you’d have at least a 10 to 1 advantage on your target, so you can do whatever you want to him. You’ve got Secret Service to back you up!
  • It would be a short game, but when you win, you could be rewarded with a cut scene of a Utopian society where everyone with dissenting views wears duct tape on their mouths, and where leaders are only asked prepared, comfortable questions during “open forum” appearances and everyone’s ears would be sewn shut with pretty pink string.
  • Ooo! Maybe on the advanced difficulty levels, you could face the added challenge of explaining your bravery to the whole frickin’ world on Youtube for Double Douche Points!!!

I really feel like this idea has legs. Can you guys help me hash out even more features so that we can present this game to a publisher? First you’d better do your research. You know, get familiar with the situation. Here’s a video and a couple of links, that ought to help get you started.
