TL;DR
R.O.P.E.: Record of Past Events
As a personal project, I'm designing an app that will
streamline asynchronous, text-based Dungeons & Dragons for my friends and
I.
Details
Yeah, but why?
I run a Dungeons & Dragons game with a few friends of mine and, due to differing schedules and
locations, we moved our game into Slack (which would be more actively checked because they were
already using it for work). When I explored other options, I found them to be either repurposed,
clunky, or not as aesthetically pleasing as I would like.
I took it upon myself to design something that would streamline the game, taking full
consideration of its asynchronous nature, and also
embrace that D&D is all about creating a story together. It's necessary
that there are side comments and requests for rolls and such that get in the way of the main
narrative, so this app is designed so that you can
slide all the excess aside
and view the story that you've created together.
