I realy enjoy
this game called Screeps >_ and I wonder how you could make something similar in CC. Maybe start with one turtle in a flatland world with trees, grass and lakes? It doesn't sound as fun to me, but maybe it will with some ideas from you?
I recommend you to watch the TRAILER:

What is screeps?
In screeps, you code a colony of robots, called screeps which can farm energy, build buildings and defend your territory.

Update:
I have a basic idea how it would work:
You code turtles to farm resources and then tell a command computer to make energy out of it. You can make new turtles with energy. Then you can trade with other turtles to get different types of resources.
Vote in the poll above; should this be a function in the API?

print("Press enter to detect block as ore.")
io.write("Ore: ")
local input = io.read()
local ore
if input == "" then
local succ, data = turtle.inspect()
if succ and data then
ore = data.name
print("Took "..ore.." as ore.")
else
print("No block was detected. Place a block in front of the turtle!")
end
else
ore = "minecraft:"..input
end
local total = 0
local blocks = 0
function mine(ore)
for rotation = 1, 4 do
local succ, data = turtle.inspect()
if succ and data and data.name == ore then
total = total + 1
os.setComputerLabel(tostring(total))
turtle.dig()
turtle.forward()
mine(ore)
turtle.back()
end
turtle.turnRight()
end
blocks = blocks + 1
return
end
if ore then
mine("minecraft:diamond_ore")
print("Mined a total of "..total.." "..ore.." whilest exploring "..blocks.." blocks.")
end
