    Idea one:When you walk along the road.When you touch the intrigue,It will release a lot of arrows from every where.
    Idea two:When you enter a room,you found some treagure.But if you touch it.It will release a cage from top and trapped people.

    nerdherd, I do understand your meaning. Got the idea's well. maybe to spice it up we could make the Cage have spikes in it, thus creating a Instant Death Fatality.

    Thanks for your submission

    Here is a Quick update on all the Creative idea's we have collected so far:

    bramblett05:
    Haven't played the game yet but a "naked girl in the shower" trap guy walks toward the room opens the door and 2 blades cut the body.

    A mob of pissed off trick or treaters behind a door that eat the person alive.

    supaman900s:
    So I did some research, and it appears the phrase "booby trap" comes from the meaning of the early Spanish word "booby" - meaning "stupid person, slow bird".

    So the trap would consist of the player, seeing the silhouette of a naked woman (sorry to piggyback off previous poster) and naturly would become interested in this image - upon investigating, the silhouette is actually revealed to be a Cassowary (world most dangerous bird) - which then attacks the player, basically making it a pun on the word "booby trap" in that the player is ultimately injured (or killed) by a "slow bird" after being a "stupid person" for thinking there was actually a naked woman.

    But even though the game already has a shower trap, I think it would be cool to do something that plays off of the meaning of the phrase.

    Another thing that comes to mind when I think of "stupid person, slow bird" - would be, let's say there is a visible note taped to the back of the inside of a large commercial size oven, (or even an incinetator or furnace or some sort) upon investigating it - which would require the player to crawl into it, the player unknowingly pushes down on a lever and the oven/incinerator/furnace door is closed on them, and the oven is turned on, which then slowly cooks the player a la a slow cooked Thanksgiving turkey - "stupid person, now became a slow cooked bird"

    The way to obtain the note without getting caught in the trap would be to first go around back off the oven and turn the gas valve to the oven off before entering it. Hope you like that one.

    mrbiggles:
    trap 1 - bathroom...turn on the water by the sink activates a small beam of light you can see glowing from inside the bathroom mirror where your standing(a mirror-cabinet) that can open. If you open it to investigate the light depending on how your standing you'll get a shotgun blast the the head - the shotgun was hidden inside the cabinet with a clue if you live.

    undeadcow:
    trap 2 - bathroom...if you open the lid of the toilet and spear comes through 2 trap doors, one behind the toilet tile wall, 2nd from floor in front. Why open, you can see something taped to the inside lid. standing to the side of the toilet and you might live another day.

    Mysterious seemingly important key secretly contains a detonator for explosives hidden somewhere else in the house. If the player accepts the key and approaches the explosives then boom (without the key detonator the explosives are neutralized). However, the key also unlocks a valuable stash in a separate part of the house. What will come first death or riches? The key could have a cryptic warning message or not.

    False welcome mat leads to pit of nails.

    Doors lock behind you automatically when closed (imagine the movie Cube). ...or Door opening loads the trap which comes into play if the door is closed.

    nerdherd:
    Idea one:When you walk along the road.When you touch the intrigue,It will release a lot of arrows from every where.
    Idea two:When you enter a room,you found some treasure. But if you touch it.It will release a cage from top and trapped people.

    thanks again to bramblett05, supaman900s, mrbiggles, undeadcow, and nerdherd for your creative contributions.

    we look forward to hearing more great ideas

    Here's another idea... players walk into a basement to hear the door slam behind them. Exploring the basement reveals to tunnel than opens to either a crypt with unclear exit. A small ray of light shines through a tiny hole in the corner... cue Raiders of the Lost Ark light ray reflection homage.

    undeadcow, thanks for another idea. I always thought of adding a passage into the basement that leads to a darker place. i gotta watch raiders of the lost ark to see the reflection.

    thanks

    bramblett05, nice idea, but i would take out the kid and replace the kid with a adult.

    here's a more twisted idea: you see a video game controller on the table, you touch it. it slowly starts vibrating, then it starts getting faster, faster and faster, until the controller finally blows up in your hands. [FATALITY]

    hows that for twisted ?

    Honestly, Im really enjoying these creative ideas. I can see most of them being placed into Scenario's 2, 3 and 4.

    Scenarios are like chapters, but each scenario will have its own story and endings.

    In Scenario 1, we have two possible endings. a GOOD and a BAD ending

    Maybe have a room full of mirrors and if you look at them it shows your self killing you in some fashion. Or have a celling with spikes that come down fast and you have to make it out under certain time.

    bramblett05,

    the game is a 2D Survival Horror point and click game, there is no real 3D exploring. the rooms are rendered in 3D. I could have spikes falling down, and you need to find a way to escape the trap before the spikes fall down

    There are many ideas i have planned for the next 3 scenarios. Im just hoping the game sells well so i can keep creating more scenarios.

    The best thing, all scenarios are FREE. I've gotten positive responses from gamers for giving all scenario's for Free.
