I am considering the idea of creating an agent-based real-time strategy game.

The idea behind the game would be that each player will have a bunch of uncontrollable agents that will do thing such as fight and gather resources. However, players would be able to make high level decisions to guide the agents in a manner similar to how a president leads a country. There are several things I like about creating a game like this

• Players will only focus on high level decisions, which will make learning how to play easy. At the same time,  these decisions will not always be straightforward, which will make the game appealing to experienced players.
• Watching the agents interact will be interesting, even for people who are not playing the game.
• There are lots of possibilities for developers who want to extend the game and do things such as create custom agents, or implementing better AI for the agents.
