So..... what type of game would you personally like?
Lengthy, dramatical, involving, puzzling, action packed, funny, real life?
There are MANY others but I'll leave it up to you...
Just, if you can, list your top 5 or something..... With your most important at the top!
This will help me when thinking up storyline idea's for my game.

Personally I think you'll have far greater success if you create a game that YOU want to create.

lol
I'd say puzzle - that is what IF games are designed for right?

I would want to play a game where I could solve puzzles, have my heartstrings tugged, have a little vicarious romance and laugh a lot! Ever think about "going dutch" on a game creation venture? Do you guys have that phrase over there in merry old England?

Oh yeah gardening is like HELL cool man! ;) No actually I've made a Q game like that where you plant flowers and sell them at the market - it's pretty good damn funny! :D

Take a top-five:
I) Interesting story
II) Puzzles relative to the story. If you can't find out that you are actually solving a puzzle, the better the game...
III) Original plot
IV) Interesting humor (Not allways)
V)Short duration
Some examples from anual IF comps (www.ifcomp.org): Earth and Sky, And the waves choked the winds, Being Andrew Plotkin, Halothane. They are all made on Inform and I suggest playing them...

Yes I agree with all of you. Quest has the potential to do so much!
