Game Title

News & General Discussion

Im currently making a survival game, at the moment is just a island with some trees, but I have planned what I want to do:
-You start in a random point of a random island, so you dont know anything abot the island you are in (You have a map so actually you know the shape:P) the first thing you need tl do is take a stone from the ground and chop a tree, and with the wood start making tools. You can make until iron tier, and, to upgrade your tools and armor you need to go to the “Dark Deeps” (Some hell/cave world) by going through a portal. In that world you can upgrade your tier, but there are a lot of monsters (There are monsters in the island too, but only at night) the main goal is to survive, the monsters are 5% stronger every day.

I have planned more things like villages, goblin camps, ruined towers(With ghost soldiers)…

Any name for this?

If you are out of ideas right now you could try to use some of the name generators found on the web. Even if they are not for the exact use case you might still get some new ideas. And I would try to keep the game concept in mind all the time and think how well the current name idea would represent your game concept, mood, style and so on.

Found a perfect name in a generator:
Creepy turtle nightmare.

XD

I will try to find another one

5% Chance of Dying.

I would suggest a hidden map that show what has been explored, maybe with some way points to major objectives, add a maze of sorts, good mechanic in this situation.

Two words that are fun to say back to back are a sure fire way to make it stick in peoples minds.

Industry Island is WAY more memorable than (some name you made up) Island.

And always always always avoid a name that refers to the story until you are big enough to carry it.

If some no name dev made a game called “Elden Ring” absolutely no one would remember it.

Also, think about names that will pop up on a certain searches.

So “Avengers of the Apes” or “Certain Doom” will of course net you tons of free traffic, but try to be sly about it.

Sounds very interesting I am looking forward to the day it is released. Hope you will find your game title.

Planning to release some alpha in itch.io this year.
Then I will try with steam.

(Edit) I have made a thread for my game in the work in progress section, if you are interested
https://forum.unity.com/threads/hardcore-survival-game.1266569/

My idea for the name at the moment is “Doomland” tell me if you have better ideas because I dont really think it is the best name (or if you like it)

Sometimes it seems that generators are more ingenious than some authors…XD
