Welcome to the Dimm City Solo RPG project! This project provides a highly interactive and immersive web component that allows users to play Dimm City Solo RPG games in their browser. The Dimm City RPG is a variation of the Wretched and Alone game system. More information about the original game see the License Attribution below.
The Dimm City Solo RPG is a narrative-driven, solo role-playing game that takes players on a thrilling adventure that changes each time they play. The game is designed to be played alone, with the game system guiding the player through the story, presenting challenges, and shaping the narrative based on the cards that are drawn and the roll of the dice.
Our Svelte based web component encapsulates the entire game, providing a rich, interactive UI that guides the player through the game, handles game logic, and maintains game state. This component can be easily integrated into any website, providing a seamless gaming experience for users.
The web component is also highly configurable, allowing for customization of game rules, narrative content, and visual appearance. This makes it a versatile tool for creating unique RPG experiences for each site, game, and player.
- Solo RPG: Designed for immersive, single-player RPG experiences.
- Configurable: Allows for extensive customization of game rules, narrative content, and visual appearance.
- Selectable Dice Themes: Designed for immersive, single-player RPG experiences.
- Svelte-based: Utilizes the power of Svelte for efficient, high-performance web components.
The game creation process for the DC Solo RPG system is designed to be easy for anyone. The three steps to create a game are:
- Download the game templates
- Modify the
config.ymlfile that holds the game configuration, such as the title, subtitle, introduction, and more. - Modify the description of each card in the
deck.csvfile to provide the card text. - Modify the
theme.cssfile to achieve the desired visual style, such as colors, fonts, and layout.
