A system to publicize friend-death as robustly as possible.
Diplomacy is a game that breaks people. It involves betreyal and backstabbing over a long period of time. The premise is simple: the players are all world powers and they control armies. Each power wants to control as much territory as possible. All moves are deterministic, there is no randomness to the game. However, people can lie about what they plan to do.
Playing diplomacy is a bad idea in itself, but writing complex code to publicly render an otherwise private, simple game is a genuine waste of raw creative energy.

Convert locations to notes, and back.
Translate geographic locations into a three note chord that you can play on a full sized piano keyboard. This sounds useless, but now you can sing your directions to your friend, build an ocarina interface to google maps, or automatically generate spotify playlists for your road trip.
A book about eggs.
Nobody wants to read facts about eggs .... ( or do they? 🤔 ) We are spending dozens of egg hours harvesting #eggfacts, creating accompanying content / illustrations, establishing printing / shipping logistics, buying eggs and writing #eggfacts on them (stretchgoals), decorating eggs with dog hair (to create unique eggcharacters - (super stretch goals)), only to sell exactly zero copies (unless we buy them ourselves).
A magic 8-ball for people who read "His Dark Materials"
The Dark Materials trilogy is centered around a "Golden Compass". Its official name is alethiometer, or "truth measure". The device is like a compass, in that it's the size of a pocketwatch and has needles that spin toward answers. Its face shows 36 symbols, each of which can represent 12+ ideas, concepts, or literal meanings.
To use the compass, the user sets the three needles to three symbols that frame the question she is posing, and then the alethiometer spins the needles to three symbols to provide a cryptic answer. This answer is truth, but must be carefully interpreted.
