Smallville: The Video Game
My idea is 'Smallville The Game'. Smallville/Superman has a huge fan base so the game would be very marketable. The game is based around episodes from the tv series which show Clark slowly developing his powers so game levels would be based around Clark's increasing powers.
Q1: How do I make sure nobody copies my game idea?
Idea Description
'Smallville The Game' is based on characters and scenarios within 45 episodes from the first 4 series and is a mixture of puzzle solving & action gameplay. Clark should be able to Free roam around Smallville, use his powers whenever he wants & obtain information from other characters. Characters interact with the surrounding environment e.g. enemies use any available items to attack Clark. This game's combat system will be different - Clark never punches people he only pushes/backhands. Clark's abilities have been matched perfectly to controller buttons by myself. The graphics and gameplay should be based on the GTA game series where there are no loading screens.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
I would use £10k to develop my game idea. My goal is to pitch my idea to other gaming companies, such as Warner Bros or EA games in the hope that this game becomes a reality. I hope that winning the money would give me access to contacts and information that will enable my game to be manufactured and sold across the world, so that other Smallville and video game fans like myself can experience and enjoy it.

I would think that copyright laws would prohibit you from making this game. I agree it would be fun to play - it's a good idea - but not something you could produce. I would use my energy to rally support to get the game made by whomever owns the rights to Superman instead.
