To conquer death, you only have to die.
So, I’ve had a plot idea bouncing around in my head for a while now. I want to develop it as a side project, and capitalize it when I’m not busy.
The plot idea extremely simplified is “Guy and girl are stranded on an island.”
This make the idea more complex, the idea is sorta mixed with Tarzan, if any of you are familiar with that time period (around the 1900’s).The man is one of the classic “tough male heroes” and the woman “dainty and delicate.”
This is to give the idea that the two could have contrasting personalities that they need to overcome in order to survive. The man needs to be more caring, the woman tougher.
The characters can be changed obviously, but I like the time period and thus, there would be prevailing gender roles that are present.
So with that backstory put forth, here’s my problem:
How to I make a very simple plot more complex? Because the current plot (if you haven’t guessed it) is “get off this God forsaken island.”
I have ideas for character development, but it doesn’t mean squat if my partner and I are getting bored. Any tips?
