Okay, here's my pitch. /

"Nicktoons Party" Similar to "Mario Party", a bunch of Nicktoons (including, but not necessarily limited to) Spongebob, Patrick, and Bubble Bass from "Spongebob Squarepants", Stimpy from "Ren and Stimpy", Rocko from "Rocko's Modern Life", Norbert, Daggett, and Treeflower from "Angry Beavers", are all arguing over who is the best Nicktoon of all time, until Sandy Cheeks decides to settle the matter scientifically by pitting the skills of intelligence, strength, speed, and luck in a series of games divided by the various worlds of Nickelodeon Nicktoons. The characters would even transform to look like they would look like in each world; boards would be represented by the cartoon series of "Ren And Stimpy"; "Rocko's Modern Life"; "The Angry Beavers"; "Catdog"; "Rocket Power"; and "Spongebob Squarepants", with two un-lockable boards from "The Wild Thornberries" and "The Adventures Of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius" once at least one character (played by player 1) places 1st on all boards in at least one standard game of play. Turns can be limited to 10 turns for short play, 20 turns for standard, or 40 plays for long. At the end of each turn, the contestants will participate in a randomly chosen mini-game, taken from various Nickelodeon game-shows of the past, including "Double Dare"; "Get The Picture"; "Family Double Dare"; "Nickelodeon GUTS"; "Legends Of The Hidden Temple"; "Global GUTS"; "Figure It Out"; and "Double Dare 2000". And while they race around the board, the object of the game is to collect Goofy Goober Tokens, in order to buy Buckets of Nickelodeon Slime. Who ever has the most Buckets of Nickelodeon Slime at the end of all the turns, will be crowned the Nickelodeon champion! The main antagonists of the game are Rancid Rabbit from "Catdog", and Plankton from "Spongebob Squarepants", who you have to avoid triggering their hazards, or lose a significant amount of your Goofy Goober tokens should you happen to trigger their events. Also collectible within the game are concept artworks for all the represented Nickelodeon shows. The game would be rated E, containing only Mild Comic Mischief. Enough said, true believers!

The Many Deaths of The Player:

This is a game about an immortal person named The Player who has to accomplish tasks without getting themselves killed by hitmen lurking around the city nor dying in accidents. When you complete one task, it gets you leveled up and move the story by learning new information and skills but if you get killed, you lose some of progress, so you have to be careful not to get killed, otherwise you have to do the tasks again.

The main story is that the person suddenly dies in a car crash while waking up in their bed the next morning and you uncover the mystery of it while trying to do the tasks. And the story leads into some real conspiracy about who made them immortal and hitmen are trying to kill them, so they can get the body before the body gets resurrected and a business guy who owns a corporation can make scientists experiment on the person and uncover the mystery of it. If you get captured, the game restarts in your last check up.

The story would unravel eventually that the reason why The Player is immortal is that there's an old scientist guy that causes the death of The Player from the start, so he can test the immortality serum he invented to see if he can resurrect his dead boyfriend from ages ago who died from being stabbed when he resisted to get mugged. What the scientist didn't occur was that he was also being followed by the business villain, so he had to be discreet and have The Player find him through leaving tasks for him to do. He wants The Player to find him, so he can take his blood sample and replicate the formula because he burned the formula in case someone checked on him.

Him and The Player eventually meets but before they can talk, they gets confronted by the villain, he wants to have immortality serum, so he can keep his business empire going but The Player manages to take down him after learning enough skills to get them prepared for the hitmen.The Player later confronts the scientist for killing them. And the scientist realizes that so much destruction has happened because he wanted to see his long lost boyfriend again and he figured it wasn't worth doing it anymore. He lets The Player go and The Player gets to live forever.

The Game would be rated M and be available in every console.
