Create an actual storyline

It seemed best to move this to Launchpad, since that's where all of the development is happening. Moved from FedoraPeople: http://julian.fedorapeople.org/LOgame/story/Plot.odt.

Whiteboard

Originally by nailuj:

Introduction Level:
This is the first level. It can serve as a kind of tutorial and introduces the player to the
Linux Outlaws world.

Fab sits in his office, doing some work with MS office.
Suddenly, Linus Torvalds appears and whispers to him: “Hey, listen. You've been
trapped in the proprietary software world far too long. Click the blue Word icon and
live on like you did before, or press the red power button and get out of here!". Fab:
“I'm bored of this job anyway, let's do it!“ He presses the red power button. Now the
game starts. He and Linus (I'd say Linus is a NPC who just follows him, if we can
manage that) fight their way through the first enemies. Fab leaves his iPhone on his
desk, and Linus gives him a Samsung Galaxy i7500 (we could add additional
“weapons“ by “installing“ new Android apps after every successfully accomplished
level).
I'd say the only thing the Galaxy can do now is shooting “normal” red laser shots.
Now Fab and Linus escape from the office while defeating all their enemies. They
reach a eeePortal(please come up with a better name^^), but just when they want to
go through it, Agent Steve appears. Linus says: “Go Fab, I can hold him off long
enough. Once you're in the real world, find Dan and tell him what has happened. He
will know what to do.” So Fab steps through the portal and Linus gets kidnapped by
Agent Steve.

Then he meets Dan in the real world. Dan introduces himself: “Hey, I'm Dan, welcome
aboard. Linus told me he'd try to rescue another soul from the proprietary world.
Where is he?”
Fab: “Dan, he rescued me, but then he told me to leave him behind.”
Dan: “Oh no! We need to liberate Linus, or the Microsoft henchmen will finally win.
The destiny of the whole Free Software World lies in our hands.”
Fab: “I see. By the way, I'm Fab. What is this place, and how did you get here?”
Dan: “Linus rescued me from the .NET hell about a year ago. I tried to install Firefox
on a PC in the MS headquarters. Then he brought me to this place. It's the Free
Software World. Every piece of software here is free. The proprietary software cads
can't get in here without the root password for the portals. But now that they got
Linus it's only a matter of time until they get to know it. We have no time to lose!”
Fab: “How do we get into the Microsoft headquarters then?”
Dan: “We need to get the nine(depends on number of levels) key cards for their front
door. Every card is protected by a powerful guardian. It will be a hard task, but we
will not give up without a fight!”

Other Levels:
Now we can have various levels with strong final enemies in no sorted order, but with
a level chooser. Some suggestions are a Google level, an Apple level or a Mono level
(I'm not insinuating that Mono is evil ;))(neither is Google^^). Let's write that part as
soon as we finished the introduction level.
