RE: Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Round 11 entry
Awesome entry. :) Glad to see you participating!
You have numerous interesting ideas that I think might help! Definitely need to really go through your entry and the others more cause there's A LOT of really good information between the 4 of you who have entered this round so far.. I think with pieces from each of your submissions we will be able to make this a much more enjoyable game for everyone!
Also I'm really intrigued by your board game idea.. I think there might be something to that! Gotta think about it more though.. And yeah feel free to drop by the discord chat and we can all talk about this stuff some more. :)
What do you mean by the character templates and letting people create their own? Like.. That sounds like a good idea! But I need more info.
And in regards to stats like dex str int, etc.. I'm open minded to implementing such, but.. I'm just not sure how that would work in terms of the actual game play mechanics itself, like.. How would more int or str or dex help someone submit an artistic entry better?
I'm still a bit unsure of how that would work, and how levels would work in general despite growing up on RGPS until I saw omegas post which I think might be the answer in regards to artifacts.. Then when people level up they can get an artifact or something like that.. I think that might work! Then levels will actually mean something and you'll get a reward for leveling up. But hey.. Maybe there's another option out there! I'm open to continually changing and refining this if people can come up with better ideas!
Thanks again for the great entry and glad to see you playing in the contest! :)
You can google character sheet rpg games to get an idea, but here is an example:
It basically just allows you to keep track of the stats and rules of the game in a much more personal way, and since there are so many creative people here it could also lead to other interactions.
The character stats usually relate to what type of artifacts and skills you can use, but I think it would be unnecessarily difficult for this game, but it is worth thinking about because since it is a key element of rpg games.
Thanks! Will definitely look into it more, might be helpful!
I would like to give people an opportunity to customize and personalize their characters more, and maybe with the board game idea we could sort of turn this into a more of a DND type of thing, but.. Still.. I'm not sure how traditional RPG stats will work with this kind of sort of "talent show". BUT.. With enough creativity and thought and working on it, I think between all of us we can figure out something that works well! :)
