Exposition

So we have this game, a game known as (Game name here, idk yet, this is a placeholder). The goal of this game is to explore a 2D, digital version of Easter Island. The goverment has set up a challenge to all players, if they can find the super secret mystery treasure of Easter Island they’ll be flown away on unicorns to the magical land of Chiraq to be put to death because the governement doesnt want the people to have the treasure. Anyway, the government has set up trick and traps on the island in order to add some challenge and to entice adventurers. This is all one big plot to boost their economy from the increase in tourism.

Now what the government is unaware of is that the existing easter island heads have always had their own personalities. One head in particular that is being used as a platform in the tutorial area of the island to introduce new players, so naturally it’s been through it all, and it’s really getting old. One player goes idle, and in order to take it’s revenge, the head jumps from the top of the cliff, down onto the happy looking newcomer, crushing him and all of his dreams.

Inciting Incident

With the coast clear, OUR hero, the easter island head, wanders around a little bit and finds a notice from the government, it’s an advertisement to adventure on the island to find the treasure of easter island. Now, you might be thinking that the head is going to get all of the treasure and be on it’s merry way. Nope, the head is pissed. What is normally a nice, calm, level headed head has a secondary personality, a personality that is thirsty. For Tab 0 calorie soda. And the blood of the people that set this “exploration incentive” up.

Rising Action

The head travels through the island, making a couple of friends on the way until it ends up at the bottom of a mountain. At the top of the mountain, a Sbarro. But midway up, there is the government’s main building. An Off-White House. Moving their way up, the head and it’s new friends make their way up to the Off-White House, taking out anyone in their path. And then they get there.

Climax

And as the group meets the leader, who by the way is just really fucking confused because he just wants to help Easter Island’s low economy, and before crushing the president, the easter island head puts on sunglasses and says “This is why you need to think about who you’re stepping on,” triggering some memory from the president’s mind of him abusing his powers, and then the head crushed him, and the rest of the platforms bring the Off-White House to the ground.

Ending

The platforms all kill the government and get s00pr krunk at Sbarro, the end.
