The reason this is advice/help instead of discussion lol, because I'm making an RP, and I want it to be good, not supper complicated or overwhelming, but quality.
I've never been really successful in making my own but I want to put a lot of effort into this and make it as good as possible, so I have a few questions and would like feedback on my current idea
So far the bullet points of the premise are as follows (Haven't written backstory/plot yet, but I have some ideas in mind)
- Public Garden Project
- Small Town RP
- All Ages though generally 17-21
- Mature
- Economic classes
- RP starts at an event, possibly a beach party and something happens (a body washes up? Murder?) but a good way of getting everyone in one location off the bat, even if they don't want to be there
- Late Summer
- Large forest with a few abandoned buildings
- Beach
- Possible Forest Fire Event Arc? (Doesn't have to be RIGHT against the town, but would add depth a timescale of events)
- Lighthouse
- Time shifts and other events (Literal town events, and arc events)
- Diner
- Library (maybe some hidden secrets? Nothing crazy)
- The Bluff (Seaside cliff, maybe caves)
- Small Shopping Center
- Etc
These are the technical
- 500 word minimum target
- Discord
- Fake Social Media
- Co-GM?
- Code CS and IC (Not Required)
- Etc
Any suggestions? Maybe a gimmick for making character sheets/planned interactions?
Or ideas for events? Etc?
I want to know, what would you want to join? What would make you not want to join?
