I can script and I can build, I've got all the skills required to make a game but I just can't come up with a good idea for a game. You guys got any advice relating to finding inspiration for creative ideas?

Think of something you like doing irl. Try to make that into a game.

I've got one. You are little virus implanted in a "FREE $9000 GIFTCARD!" scam. You get downloaded, and must get to the motherboard before the user realizes you are there. Virus actions- (process) Get downloaded (start game) Destroy minor things Destroy med things Destroy major things Destroy le motherboard You must avoid scans and Anti-Virus programs in the process. If you are caught, you will slowly be removed. (note: I have no idea what I was thinking here, I don't even know a thing about computers)
