Hi,
I've got a basic plot for the first room which basically goes like this...
<Fadein> Main character walks into kitchen to find evil ghost-dude, talks to him, walks over to pellet stove grabs sword and kills him... he then picks up stuff in the kitchen.
after that I'm just a little hazy I thought kind of a Monkey Island type thing but that is kind of stupid... I figured he could explore the town a little, but I'm not god with paint so the town will suck, any ideas?
Hmm... You should make a BASIC plot then fill in the details.
This ghost could be your long lost dead great grandfather. It could be just a friendly ghost who comes back from the dead to be your trusty side kick if you help him rest his soul.
Who knows? The possibilities are endless. But you really should have a basic idea.
This really helped me a lot:

Hope all this helps!
I already did a basic plot but it seriously sucks! Thanks for the advice. :D
