About This Project
What Is This?
A browser-based RPG. Turn-based combat. Loot. Crafting. The usual suspects, arranged in (hopefully) interesting ways.
No downloads. No app store. You open a tab, you play. Close the tab, come back later. Your progress waits patiently.
It's the kind of game you can sink ten minutes into during lunch or lose an entire evening to if you're not careful. Your call.
What's Actually In Here?
Character Creation
Pick a profession. Choose a faction. Name yourself something you won't regret. Standard stuff, but it's yours.
Combat
Turn-based. Strategic. The haste system determines who goes when: faster actions mean more turns, but slower abilities hit harder. There's a rhythm to it once you find it.
Poisons tick. Burns spread. Buffs stack. Debuffs ruin your day. Managing all of it is half the game.
Crafting
This is where things get interesting.
Recipes drop as loot. Consume one to start crafting. You get a limited number of rolls to shape your item's stats. Each roll gives you a grid of random values. Lock what you want. Re-roll the rest. Pray to whatever RNG gods you believe in.
Then comes enchanting. Multipliers. The numbers get bigger. A Legendary recipe in skilled hands produces something beautiful. The same recipe with bad luck produces... a learning experience.
Two identical recipes can become completely different items. Your choices matter.
Equipment
Eight slots: Helmet, Chest, Gloves, Boots, Weapon, Ring, Amulet, Belt.
Find gear. Equip gear. Watch numbers go up. Feel powerful. Get killed by something stronger. Find better gear. Repeat.
You know how this works.
Spells
Queue them up. Watch the animations. Devastate your enemies. Feel briefly like a god until the next fight humbles you.
What's Coming?
A lot. Probably too much. But ambition keeps things interesting.
Skill Trees — Specialize. Branch out. Make builds that make sense or builds that absolutely don't.
Gem Cutting — A new crafting discipline. Sockets. Gems. More ways to tweak your gear.
Procedural Dungeons — Floors. Difficulty scaling. "Just one more level" at 1am.
Multiplayer Duels — Prove your build works against something smarter than AI.
Guilds — Band together. Shared goals. Collective suffering.
More Monsters — The bestiary is hungry for entries.
Achievements — For those who need external validation. No judgment. I understand.
Seasonal Events — Limited-time chaos. Exclusive rewards. FOMO as a feature.
No timeline. It's done when it's done. Solo dev reality.
Follow Along
I'll be documenting the journey over on the blog.
Expect dev updates, design rambles, and the occasional breakdown of how things work under the hood. In the coming months, I'll also be sharing videos and links showing off new features, gameplay clips, and whatever else seems worth showing.
If you're into watching a game get built piece by piece, stick around.
Why Browser-Based?
Because it's what I know. And because browsers are quietly excellent for games like this.
No download. No install. No update blocking you from playing. Share a link, someone's in the game within seconds.
The old MUDs figured this out decades ago. I'm just borrowing the wisdom.
Who's Making This?
One person. Me.
Every feature, every bug, every questionable design decision: all mine.
Progress is slow. Weekends and evenings stolen from other responsibilities. But it moves forward. Steadily. Stubbornly.
The advantage of solo dev is coherent vision. The disadvantage is finite time and energy. The reality is somewhere in between, fueled by coffee and spite.
Why Though?
Because I've always wanted to build something people enjoy.
Not millions of people. Just... some people. A small corner of the internet where a weird little game finds its weird little audience.
That's the dream.
If you're here, you're part of whatever this becomes.
Thanks for stopping by.
