As I was working in the garage this morning, I come up with this great
idea for a video game.

"Fire Boat Welcome".

The idea here is to complete a voyage using various types of vessels
starting with a basic kiddie pool and moving up to a large yacht. The
voyage will be filled with challenges from fighting the vagaries of
Mother Nature (wind, waves, storms, etc) to vicious attacks of
mythological sea monsters (Giant Squids, Kraken's, etc.). Along the
way, various items of flotsam and jetsam can be picked up and used to
assist you in your voyage.

Additional points can be gained by challenging pirates, dodging
various ships and discovering new creatures and geography - say like
Atlantis.

You can also gain points by reducing fuel use by training various
species of animals to tow the vessel.

Once you reach port, there will be an additional challenge by avoiding
being sunk by the deluge of water from the fire boats that welcome you
back. If you manage to make it to the dock, you are elevated to the
next level and another voyage begins

I'm envisioning several different types of scenarios here - the basic
voyage level, the pirate level where you chase the vessel as it makes
it's voyage, operate a vessel to track down and destroy the vessel and
being the fire boat skipper who tries to sink the vessel when it comes
into port.

This has some potential - a movie, action cartoon, comic books - I
mean the possibilities are endless.

A basic list of vessels - kiddie pool, inflatable plastic raft, canoe,
center console, utility cabin open deck, Zimmerman lobster boat, 50
foot Hatteras...anything else?

What do you guys think? Good idea?
