This reminds me of a few game jams that were basically about one phase where artists create screenshots of games that don't exist, and then developers pick one of those screenshots and make it a reality. It was as amazing as it sounds, and you had a lot of leeway as a developer to interpret so much about the game from the one screenshot. So multiple people could choose the same one and make completely different games. One from Newgrounds in 2013 [1]. A more recent one on itch [2].
