I have come up with an idea for a computer game. How do I give a 'heads up' on this idea to some game designers, so they can consider it for their future games? The idea is basically like Civilization or Sim City, but with the goal of building a religion, rather than cities or civilizations: the populations are already there, but you now play as some currently unknown diety, and you really want to attract a group of followers and have them start a religion based on your teachings. So what do you do? You apply small, symbolic miracles strategically, you "hire" a human prophet to talk your case on earth, you make sure your followers invent writing before the others, such that they can put down your memes in writing for more efficient distribution. You produce a stream of memes, sees which of them appeals, then promote them to canon. Etc. There's a lot of modern research on the field of 'the mechanics of Religions', so to say.
