The Last RPG Jam 2020, GDD Complete


Yesterday, most of the team got together to complete the GDD.  One of our members was too busy with in-real life (IRL) work and couldn't make it.  The rest of us decided to move forward but to grant veto authority to the missing member in case we made a decision that was unacceptable.  But I'm optimistic that that won't be needed.

My greatest concern was finalizing the level range.  We had several options we considered: 3rd to 7th (with the possibility of sequel adventures), playing as sidekicks for the first half of the game then high-level characters for the second half, but we decided on levels 17 to 20 (and up) as a direct continuation of the published ToD adventure.

We finalized several other items as well.  Design pillars set as Rebellion, Organization, and Overthrow.  Features will include a version of Renown emphasizing PC consequences, character advancement based on checkpoints instead of milestones or XP, using free legal art except maybe budgeting for cover art, and no original music but maybe inspirations / a Spotify playlist.

We met my initial target of completing the GDD by 30-NOV-2020.  Progress is looking good.
