I had a couple of ideas. I don't think I'm going to actually build them, so anyone's welcome to the ideas.
- A horror game where a crank-operated flashlight is your only source of light. The crank on the PlayDate is how you recharge the flashlight.
- A stealth game where you play as a safe cracker and use the crank as a mock safe dial.
- A "the floor is lava" style platformer where you swing across monkey bars, using the crank to adjust your momentum. I.e. spin it up to start doing 360's on the bar you're currently on and launch yourself farther, or spin it backwards to slow down for shorter jumps.
