Assume the role of the Spirit Guide, the one who must find and ferry the living to the land of the dead. Every day more people die and require to be shown passage to the other side so they can pass peacefully, and it is your job to find them and deliver them safely. However the underworld can be a dark and treacherous place and with only your lantern to light the way it can be easy to get lost.
The game-play consists of moving across tiles, collecting lost souls, and avoiding enemies while making sure that you don't run out of lantern fuel. Each level is a puzzle, collect as many lost souls as you can and get to the exit before your lantern goes out. Every tile you move depletes an amount of fuel, this acts as a move counter and forces the player to think efficiently about their decisions.
Similar to Don't starve, the game would have a Tim Burton art style on the assets and character to enhance the creepy feeling of being in the underworld.

By the time they realised what was going on it was too late, now the entire population of humans are enslaved by cats. The cats, now free to do as they wish have run rampant in the streets, back alley cats trading catnip in the dark corners of the cities, pavements littered with empty tuna cans and cream bottles licked clean.

As they travel upwards there will be floating collectable points and powerups to tactfully float into.

This can be achieved through collecting objects, pulling levers, pressing buttons, and pushing objects onto pressure plates.

A runner game where you play inside a music sheet. The idea is that playing the game perfectly will play out a catchy melody, however missing tiles and running into obstacles will mess up the tune and deduct points from the player.
Each tile on the platforms plays a note when the player places a foot on it. There are 3 different platforms for the player to run on, they are filled with obstacles and coins to collect. Collecting coins will give the player points, and running into obstacles will take them away, points will also be awarded at the end for the longest streak of tunes.
The stage ends when the tune finishes, the player can choose what tune they would like to play. In order to prevent the player from spending ages completing a tune the songs will be cut shorter than the original ones.
The art style of the game will be predominately pixel art.

Combo Caster is a game based around button combinations that create spells. Play as a mage trying to defeat a horde of monsters and protect his small hovel from being overrun and destroyed.
The gameplay consists of the player being presented with enemies in quick succession. Each enemy will deal a certain amount of damage unless the player can defeat them with the correct spell before they reach him.

To cast a spell the player must press the correct combination of keys in time to produce magic. There are different key combinations that will call upon different magic, similar to Magicka. The player must cast the correct spell to counter to enemy in order to defeat it (water against a fire demon for example), difficulty is added by decreasing the time the player has to complete the spell combo as the levels increase.
