I spent half an hour making this post and for some reason it never got posted the first time.
This isn't an adventure game idea, but it's the only place where I could post this and it wouldn't be off-topic.
My game idea would be for a futuristic FPS set in 2250.You would play as an astronaut working at NASA, on a mission to a planet (haven't decided a name) in the Andromeda galaxy.Due to unfortunate events in previous missions, astronauts are now required to carry pistols on missions, but due to varying gravity levels on different planets, bullets can't be used.So instead you use (here comes an extremely original idea!!!) laser guns.In a whirwind of bad luck, your ship crashes into the surface.You and your team call in a rescue team, but due to "strange radar readings", the rescue team didn't want to take a chance landing near the crash site, so they land on the planet's South pole.So all you have to do is get from the crash site to the rescue team, all the way across the planet.Sound simple, right?Wrong!!!The planet turns out to have life forms on it, but they're not just any life forms, they're life forms in which some of them are much smarter than humans could ever be!!!Some creatures are extremely stupid, only alive for the purpose of battle, while others live in complex civilizations, live life like humans, can carry guns, take cover, and even plan battle strategies.The planet has a gigantic army, and through the game you have to remember this: YOU are the alien on their planet, and they will go to drastic measures to destroy you.I guess it's a good thing you brought that gun, right?
Through the game, NASA will teleport you more powerful weapons if the need arises, ranging from sustained fire guns(one beam keeps working without recoil as long as you hold down the trigger) to laser shotguns and sniper rifles to shoulder-mounted energy cannons and guns that shoot through walls(a la Red Faction's Rail Driver).The game would also use Volition's Geo-Mod technology.
Through the game you will blast your way through everything from all-out battles in bearen wastelands to intense stealth missions in crowded cities.Through the game you will find out more about the civilization and culture of this planet.
So that's my game idea.It will probably never be made, but it's an idea anyway.Haven't thought of a title yet, though...
