Dreamsent (Early RPG designs)

Hey so this morning I woke up, couldn’t get back to sleep, so started thinking about what I could do for the 7DRL jam this year, and I figured it might be cool to make it like a tabletop roleplaying game (since those are on my mind lately) only the computer is your GM.

And then I kept having thoughts about secret societies and portals to other realms and ancient beings and guardians on the border of our world and ability check mechanics and combat and character stats and IT DIDN’T STOP.

I’ve been making notes all day, most of it has ended up being lore but there’s a bunch of gameplay stuff there too.

This link is to what I am working on right now, so it will probably change and get looooots of new additions as I plan more stuff for 7DRL and get started testing it.

That or I’ll wake up tomorrow and realised that this was all crap and just the product of a mind that happened to have too much energy today. It’s 50/50 which one it’s gonna be I think.

Either way though, I think it’s got cool and interesting potential so I’m sharing it 🙂

Hope you’re doing well btw!

UPDATE: here are some doodles, added as I finish them:
