Stone Story RPG Dev QA
[ 2019-05-17 21:44:53 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello Tree Choppers! Last Sunday we hosted a Q&A session with members of our Discord server where we dove into the development process behind Stone Story RPG. We came away from the talk with several interesting design perspectives, ranging from how to teach players to incorporating idle game mechanics. We've uploaded the Q&A in its entirety if you're interested in taking a peek behind the curtain: https://youtu.be/y9tdsrBENfM Thank you to everybody who was able to make it and participate! We may host another one again where we delve into specifics, like ASCII animation or boss fight design. Have suggestions for what our next Q&A should cover? Join our Discord server to make sure you don't miss the next talk! - https://discord.gg/vdW9PZP -SSRPG Team

In a realm of perpetual evil, a single stone could change everything.
Stone Story is an RPG set in a dark and vile world. The game's fluid ascii art is painstakingly animated in plain text by a single insane game developer. The game has been in development since 2014 and is presently in closed beta testing. It features 8 locations to explore, 8 boss fights, mind-blowing ascii cutscenes and plenty of loot to discover.

The casual play contrasts with the retro visuals, providing a unique experience that blends nostalgia with modern design principles. One of the game's defining mechanics is that you have no direct control of the player character. You choose what items to equip, which location to visit and relax while an artificial intelligence does all the exploring, combat and looting. That doesn't mean this is an idle game. Potions and special abilities are maximized by good timing. Boss fights are intense and can keep you at the edge of your seat, requiring quick item swaps if the boss changes patterns. Additionally, an item crafting system allows you to combine otherwise disposable items--rewarding experimentation, giving you interesting choices and making full use of all the gathered loot.
