I'm going to give you a few tips on writing video game creepypastas.

1: The biggest issue with gamepastas is that most are identicle. It's a different game, but the same blood and guts. Another issue is a videogame like Sonic is over-saturated with creepypastas, you need to be 100% original with writing an idea for it. In a world where we have Tails Doll, Sonic.exe, Sally.exe, and all these other horrifying stories, you need to find something original. "I found an old cartrage", "I bought an unmarked game at a store", "I found a mod" we've heard these stories a thousand times.

2. This is a very opinionated idea, but when it comes to video games; never, make the videogame the center of the story. Never let the vidoegame itself be the star of the show. Let the person playing the game, be the star. This is strictly my opinion; others', believe that the game itself SHOULD be the star.

3. Use as little supernatural effect as possible. What truely makes a story scary, is how realistic and relatable it is.

4. You need an interesting title, and an interesting introduction.

If you have ANY issues/questions when it comes to writing a story, please ask me and I can help. If you'd like, I can even help you write your story from the ground up, to give you an idea on how an original story should be written.
