For IGJ4, I started out making a game like Gears of War, but where your only control was your own mouth. Half way in, I had another idea, which was to make a game where you play an ESRB censor who tries to remove all the swears from an M-rated game. I combined the two ideas for the final game, Ears of War, in which the mission briefings are the ESRB gameplay and the actual combat is mouth-based Gears. Unfortunately, the audio recognition is really shitty, so it takes a good deal of tweaking with the microphone to get it so that you can play.
