-* D&D mentioned *-
I have been summoned?
So, how’re you gonna make this? With random chance RNG that approves/disapproves your actions? That seems like a good way to go–
I’d recommend not using sentries for battle, but a turn-based thing using any spells/moves you have.
Also, make medival-ish locations that have more of a fantasy element to them. Like a tavern, forest, chuuuurch (just let me say the word normally forums it’s not that big of a deal), graveyard, caves, etc.
Use notifications to tell the player what happened on their roll. Have 'em say something like “You rolled a… 20!”
Have the players be able to choose a race and class to play as (ex: harengon druid, elf wizard) and that affects their fighting moves/spells, and the roll chances in some situations.
I’ll prolly come in with some more ideas sometime soon, I’ve got way too much D&D on the brain now hah

So you’re saying I should make It more of like a popup game than an open world game? (meaning the narrative comes from a popup with a few buttons for how you react)

No, like–
Open world exploration, with the fights set up kinda like this:
except not, because that’s paper mario and ain’t now way you’re getting all that into gimkit
The notif. popups are just to tell the player what happened on the roll.
Yeah, exactly that!
lol lucky
literally nobody I know likes/knows what D&D is so I’ve never actually played it–
rip my entire notebook full of 500 different characters I’ve never gotten the chance to use

maybe try to make a beholder boss 
you know, this guy?:
He has ten eyestalks, all doing different things (they shoot rays that make things happen !
Abilities:
Main eye: drains all magic if used
Eyestalk 1: charms a creature
Eyestalk 2: paralyzes a target
Eyestalk 3: petrifies a target (turns to stone)
Eyestalk 4: disintegrates objects or creatures
Eyestalk 5: inflicts fear
Eyestalk 6: slows a target’s movement
Eyestalk 7: telekinesis ray (self-explanatory)
Eyestalk 8: death ray
Eyestalk 9: drains life force
Eyestalk 10: puts a target to sleep
[1]
I will also be back with more ideas later! [2]
well, @Reaper_leviathan, some of this is impossible, but I will put together the ones I think are possible:
Eyestalks 2,6,8,10(oh wow even numbers)
more are probably possible, just I don’t think they would be easy to make.
my school had a club in 6th grade, then that teacher left, then another teacher (new) took up the mantle, then he left, and now we no longer have a dnd club

I think your idea for stalk one would work too (a no gadget zone spawns), along with 4 (destroys props every once in a while) and 9 (damager slowly knocks out player)
Thank you!

my idea: make a WURM as a final boss
it will be hard lol ik by the 5e edition that the wurm is one of the hardest to defeat
but it would be a good final boss

I think I might be able to use zappy’s method. the d!e won’t role, but it will spin and a text will appear on top.
what about a tarrasque?
but tiamat sounds pretty good too!

Yes sirrrr
You said that before and you never respond with the thumbnail thing…

(u mean the apocalypse game mode?) I Like that! I was originally thinking of making a brainrotted ST roleplaying game with the exact same system! thanks!

yeah…
like you choose your race and then choose your class…
you could have those impact your stats somehow…
you also have to make the stat roll thingy at the beginning with the d6s
wdym apocalypse @Reaper_leviathan?

A while ago I came up with a complicated system for stats, I may or may not be of use for your game.
So basically how it works is that if you have say a potion of strength that increases your STR stat by 3 it increases a property by 3.
Then say you had a base STR of like 12, then that would be 15 total.
Then with some block code it would get the property for the STR stat and match it with the closest STR/DEX buff. (For example if I had 14 STR the block code would just round it up and give me 1.5 strength boost.
This system could probably work for any stat in D&D as long as you put enough time and effort into it.

Thanks! This’ll really help with modifiers on checks.
