One of the hardest parts of programming any work of Interactive Fiction is finding an idea to work with. Once you've done that it seems like the easiest thing, because once you have an idea you have to make everything work well! Here we're gonna list a few ideas that have come up for discussion in AGX, plus a few that stormed into my head while I was getting this site together.
I've heard a lot about needing more games and ideas on AGX. Players and programmers have some great ideas. Some of them are listed here. All I ask is that if you use something here, give the named person some credit in your game docs or game file. It's really not too much to ask is it? Trust me, it goes a long way in keeping people wanting to help. In line with that thought, I just wanna thank everyone who's ideas I have listed here. Sorry if I missed anyone, or misquoted, I was going from memory. Feel free to send me your ideas if you've got them, addtions, or corrections to what I've got listed.
The celbrities list has been moved to a separate page. If you want to take a look at who is rumoured to be hot right now, go here.

You will submit, because you like that sort of thing....
Sorry, got a little caught up there!
Ok, there were a few general game ideas mentioned, and where possible I've linked to some text about that idea. Any concepts that are links lead to the details that we have available about the idea. Take a look, there a some good ones!
I've added another part to this table to make it easier to see if something has been added to any of the ideas. I'm sure you'll all be able to pick out the new ideas. Any of the existing pages that have content added to them will say they are updated. Simple enough I think.
