Made in Hybrid BASIC (of course), the game revolves around a tournament called the Inversion. Each player is given a Manifold which is a glove that can harness and manipulate the elements of fire, water, wind, and earth. This glove can be upgraded by buying new Crystal Harnesses for it, but that's the LEGAL way to do it.
When you defeat someone in the Inversion, you have the ability to 'leech' the energy of their Manifold, making the victim incapable of fighting. It also eliminates all other chances of them fighting in the Lower Brackets (fighting for 2nd place, 3rd place, and so on). This, of course, is ILLEGAL and will drop one's Prestige which, if it gets low enough, inhibits you from wearing Celestial Clothing (equipments that are rare and have fame as a requirement).
Prestige is your character's Fame which can allow you to do many things when in the positive numbers (befriend people, make opponents more likely to offer a tie, wear Celestial Clothing, etc.).
All in all, it sounds promising but I may need help with this one. It's gonna be big (APP-compilation, LOCKING source code, the whole 9 yards).
