So today I took a little time away from my RPG project to prepare for 7DRL (which starts today!). I am continuing to plan things out for it and I am getting a sense of the kind of mythology I might want (and the kind of bad actors who might try to exploit it for their own evil ends!) but it’s not really anything I can show yet.

Most of this week I have spent putting together a way of writing short elements of interactive fiction in tracery, and have unity generate stuff from that. The plan is to use this so (hopefully) by the end of the week, I’ll have a gamebook generator! I put a lot of work into my gamebook system and I’m a little annoyed there is only one released and playable book that uses it, so I really want there to be an infinite number of them instead 😛

Also, yesterday I felt like crap so I spent the whole day in bed and just started working on something I’ve been thinking of since I started getting interested in cubing. Put simply, it’s a magic cube system in unity, you can have cubes of any dimension, and I have been working on gamepad controls that feel like using a real cube. I’d like to make it into an app kind-of like my dice (but omfg I will not spend that much time on it) so you’d be able to make custom cubes, play with them, learn algorithms, have it show you how to solve your IRL cubes… OK yeah that could take a while. Anyway it’s just a little project for now, if you see it start to pull me away from my RPG you have my permission to yell at me a whole bunch 🙂
