We've Never Made a Game with Python Before

We are a team of high school students enrolled in the International Baccalaureate program, working on our required Creativity hours. In the week leading up to the Challenge, we are working to familiarize ourselves with PyGame. We have never made a full game in python before, so this will be a learning experience for both of us. Luckily, PyWeek occurs at the same time as our fall break, so we should have plenty of time to dedicate ourselves to this challenge. We'd like to wish everyone good luck, and we wish you a happy October.

Our Idea

Since this is our first game in Python, we are limited in our options. We'd like to develop a game that allows players to be invested in their character, which think this theme works well for. Our game will be about a child's room, and the child that lives in it, as they grow to adulthood. The game will be turn-based, with events that occur every few turns that will affect the child's life. At the end of the game, the player will have the option to download their character's biography. We want to develop a game where players would be able to talk to each other about the lives their children had. Whether or not this would really be considered a "game", I'm not sure. There isn't really a defined goal we would want players to have. I'm sure we'll figure everything out as we go along.
