Yeah, this is kind of a ripoff of MSPaint Adventures, I guess. Mostly I want it to be an exercise in getting better at using my tablet, writing a story from scratch, being funny/entertaining, and getting better at cartooning.
This is sort of a forum game, though. Here is how it works:
I start off with a simple setting and a character. As soon as this is fully established, anyone can post and make a suggestion of what to do next, starting with that character's name(or an abbreviation for it) and giving a command as for what to do next.(Name: Action.) I'll choose whichever command tickles my fancy the most at that moment, and the story will play out in that fashion. It kind of plays like a text-adventure. In fact, it plays a lot like that. Except that I make it up as I go.
It also plays a lot like the 'true RPG' style, as described in this thread. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/362.116378]

They're definitely better than mine will be, at least.
So, let's begin.
You are a SLIGHTLY EFFEMINATE YOUNG BOY. Today is your first day of HIGH SCHOOL. You are also a FRESHMAN, and are therefore keeping an eye out for FOOTBALL PLAYERS wielding PADDLES.
What is your NAME?
