So, c’mon, let loose. I’m talking the really wacky shit that still makes everyone who hears it go, “Okay -thatwould be cool.” To kick things off, here’s my offering. I’d like an extraction shooter take onFantastic Voyage(or that fantastic parody episode of Futurama), where you’re repeatedly diving down in a miniaturised submarine into someone’s body, as a mercenary accepting contracts to delve into bodies and extract specific resources from within.
I think the dangers would be mostly environmental, while the enemies would be the body’s immune system detecting a foreign presence. The worlds feel weird and wonderful, and yet also familiar and understandable. There could be multiple bodies (maps) to search through, and perhaps you could run into other player-controlled mercenary subs, fighting or fleeing over important resources like brain tissue or spinal fluid.
