TEST DRIVE MEME
This is the test drive meme for Summer Camp Petosky. Feel free to use this to voicetest, gather samples for your potential app, or just have fun in the setting! Reserves open on May 20th. Hit up our FAQ with any other questions!
Feel free to come up with your own scenarios as well! This is just a sampling of the camp fun that you can be expected to have in the game. Here is our Locations page!
1. WHO INVENTED TRUMPETS
You awake with a start in one of the cabins that litter the campgrounds to the soothing sounds of A goddamn trumpet in your ear.
Alright, it's not in your ear persay, but it is being played from a stereo in your cabin, cheekily repeating itself over and over until you stumble out of bed and turn the damn thing off. 'Bed' in this case being one of the bunks in a bunk bed, wearing entirely unfamiliar clothing.
Welcome to camp. Get to know your fellow campers, your new roommates and the other people who are getting the same wakeup call in the cabins nearby.
2. WHO INVENTED FROGS
It's night. There's nothing around but the soft sounds of nature - the wind, gentle splashes from the lake, Frogs screaming all night -
Apparently, one of your counselors has gotten fed up with the noise, and kept you all up so you could go and hunt frogs, with a light and a container with a lid to keep all your catches in. You've got a partner and until daybreak, and the team with the most frogs at the end of the day gets a whole week's worth of tickets. Think of all the candy you could buy with that.
2A. MAYBE BREAKFAST IS A BAD IDEA
The next morning as you all file in bleary eyed from a long night of frogging, you'll notice the kitchen is serving up all your standard american breaskfast favorites: pancakes, bacon, eggs, frog legs-
Frog legs.
Hm.
3. WHO WANTS TO GO HORSEBACK RIDING?
Thankfully, it's not all frogs and mayhem. The Counselors take you out horseback riding through the woods - which would be a fun time if not for one little fact.
The Horses you're riding are all entirely made from living wood. They even like pets and make the appropriate horse noises somehow, but they're made from wood. They don't seem to be dangerous at least, but...
The counselors warn you to stay on the trail and not go off it, no matter how much the horses want to go there. If you decide the warnings are for suckers, well...You won't get very far off the trail before the horses buck you off and begin sticking their roots into you, forcibly sucking your blood with delighted whinnies. At that point? All you can do is hope someone hears your screams and chances coming to save you.
On the other hand, if you listen to the counselors? You get a pleasant ride through a beautiful forest. Maybe listen to the counselors for once, yeah? Or don't - it's your funeral.
4. CAMP SLASHAWAY
Looks like one of your fellow Campers has died - at the hands of one of your own, no less. Maybe you should get around to checking out the body, and make notes of the condition - because the counselors sure aren't going to be any help here. And if you happened to do it...well, maybe you'd be better off misleading them or obfuscating evidence.
5. TRIALS AND SMORES
It's night. the campfire is roaring, you're all seated around it, and now you've been told to do your best to find the killer. Of course, the killer will be punished, but the counselors say they'll only be put in time out - which is a small wooden shack nearby. However, you can all see that they've put the victim's body in there...which is gross and intensely unsanitary. Yet at the same time, something about that hut just...frightens you.
You'd better find the killer, and hope that no one votes for you tonight.

[ He heaves a big sigh. ]
You missing your buddies too?
no subject
[He's trying!]
Gonta think he's lost. This place no look like other place. You lost too?
no subject
[ Glancing at the marking on his leg. Assessing how he feels. Still hungry. (Always hungry.) This is definitely not Nirvana. But he's optimistic. Maybe Nirvana is just... on the way from here. ]
Yeah, I think I got lost on de way to dis place wid me comrades. It's called Nirvana! S'posed to be a real nice place. No fightin', nobody's unhappy, dere's a really nice ocean and a boat...
1/2
[That makes Gonta feel a little better.]
Wooooah! Nirvana sound like great place to visit! If only Gonta could take his friends there...
2/2
Gonta and friends got kidnapped by bad person and bad bear named Monokuma. Monokuma locked everyone in academy and tricked them into killing each other...
[Gonta frowns at his own memories.]
Gonta... Not sure how he got out.
no subject
[ Adamant clenching of fists!!! ]
Like de Junkyard. All dat killin', and devourin', and for what? To get to someplace we ain't even sure about? I sure hope my comrades be okay... well, since we both stuck in dis new place, I'll help you out, okay? Dey call me Cielo.
no subject
[He isn't sure what this guy was having to devour here, but it doesn't sound good.]
Gonta's name is Gonta. Gonta also help Cielo out best Gonta can!
no subject
Might be. But I'm strong. I can 'andle lots, don't worry. If dey got anything weird like what you or I went through here, I bet I could handle it! Long as you smilin', ain't nothin' can stop you. So how about you show me a big smile, eh? You got a comrade here.
no subject
Gonta strong too! Gonta and Cielo have lots in common!
[Not that smart, strong, good, was in a bad situation before... Okay, some of those are kind of assumptions based on this conversation but still.]
Gonta happy to be Cielo's friend!
no subject
Wanna explore, den? Dey seem real eager to make us look around, since dey woke us up an all.
no subject
[Lead the way!]
no subject
Uh... dat way!
no subject
Like, outdoors, outdoors. No big cages blocking the clouds, no unreachable cityscapes in the distance. Just the gentle breeze on the fresh grass set to the sounds of animals. Gonta's heart nearly skips a beat as he takes in the whole scene.]
... This outside?
[Even with the obligatory man-made structures that were part of the campsite, Gonta almost felt like he had been sent home to his forest family.
And then he hears it. The faint buzzing of a passing fly.]
Bugs! [Gonta's smiling harder than he has in a while.] CIELO! THERE BUGS HERE!
[He definitely isn't acting afraid of the bugs as he races past his new friend and kneels on the soft grass. He excitedly sifts through the grass, eagerly looking for one to show off.]
no subject
[ He stops and sees the tiny creatures Gonta points out, careful not to disturb any of them, and kneels nearby to observe them. He is also not afraid, and more curious. ]
I ain't neva seen anythin' like dat. Mosta de stuff I seen like dat is muuuuch bigga! Dey don't look very scary. Look much friendlier den dey demons I'm used to.
no subject
You never seen bug before? How that possible? There are all kinds of bugs all over world! Like this bug!
[Gonta has found a beetle. He lets it crawl up onto his hand before gently lifting it off the ground to show Cielo.]
This is Cedar Beetle. Kinda look like firefly sometimes. Lay eggs in trees and eat cicada larvae.
[Isn't that neat?]
no subject
I ain't neva seen a little guy like dis! He's supa cute! Reminds me of a tiny Mothman, but less fuzzy.
no subject
[He can think of one guy who might know more about the mothman, but that person's not here.]
We go meet other bugs if Cielo wanna see more!
no subject
[ He is making hand gestures to BIGGER THAN HIM. ]
Really fluffy. Got big wings, red eyes. I'd love to see more of your friends, though! Dey all seem real cool!
no subject
That big? Gonta not see bug that big in his life! Giant bugs go extinct long, long time ago!
[He's talking about prehistoric insects that died out due to a decrease in oxygen levels. He can explain if you ask.]
Maybe we find smaller moth somewhere!
[At this point, the cedar beetle has crawled up his arm and perched on his shirt. It'll probably fly away at some point.]
