An Aside; Why am I writing this?

Why am I writing this?

I've thought about this long and hard, and while i couldn't find the answer for myself, Chris from group pointed out exactly what I was trying to find. The purpose of the game in its entirity.

First and formost, my reason for gaming is to have fun. From there I've found that I'm out to prove i'm not just another gamer, that my ideas have merit. Finally, and probably most importantly, I want to have my time in the sun.

This is the thing I want to base my game around. Everyone should be having fun, every person should be able to prove that their ideas are solid, and have their time where they are the most important person on the screen. It doesn't have to be long either. These are the rewards that need to be imparted.

From there, the story can go either way. Many of the complications will be dropped. The deal with teen angst, gone. The deal with only being music, gone.

I want players to take something that they are passionate about and turn it into something that says something about themselves. If I can accomplish that, then there is very little that will stop me.
