I think this would work better as an open source engine. 100 levels seems like too few for so much potential and if someone managed to make the base platform engine more innovative it could make the game considerably better. Also, I hope you can add in more words ala drawn to life style.

Just to kill further speculation there are no proper nouns, vulgarities, religious terms (though you can write God, I saw it in Nintendo Power), and (according to Estian) no adjectives with nouns.

I'd rather call them Pop culture icons(such as cthulu vs god in the video demo).

dibs on spawning Miyamoto and cover him in money.

Nothing about Abstract nouns?

So I can create 'justice' and 'happy'? Sweet.

Dibs on spawning Sperm
Tsunami Bomb - The Simple Truth
We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you

Lame. =/
Well I can understand why that would be hard to represent, but Atributing abstract nouns to concrete ones would make for interesting puzzles.

Have a rogue villain attacking NPCs? Whack Justice on him.
Proud, self important guard blocking your path? See how he fares against some Dispair.

Agreed, but it'd also create another dimension of complexity, from the creator's perspective, that would take another long while to implement.
Of course, you could accomplish the same thing (arguably) by summoning a 'hero' or 'superhero' instead of 'justice,' and summoning, I dunno, Medusa or Cthulhu instead of 'despair.'

Hence the game's awesomeness.

you could spawn a Villian.

and he would eventually attack you.
