For me, it's trying to think the spells and items through and get things as balanced as I possibly can. I have more fun with attack and item definitions than I do with the graphics or the plot. That's funny. I hate this part. Balancing battles in general is so frustrating. My favorite part is makin...

So I was curious about the balance issues in regards to the pureman with the other races, so I flipped through this and jotted down when I came across one of the other races special abilities. Thanks for your detailed observations. What you say is close to the truth, although fixing the problem can...

The building is burning down! You can go to the medical office or the supply depot. If you choose to go to the medical office, you get helpful medicine. Gain 1 Stamina. If you choose to go to the supply depot, choose three of the following items... I understand now. This idea is great. I will be ma...

Thanks for your feedback. It was very informative. I appreciate both of you taking the time to read the book, complete it, and think critically about it. Your effort is much appreciated. Add a character sheet to the PDF. It gives the player a more visual way of organizing things and helps as a refer...

Gamebook: Caverns of None Shall Pass
I took a break from OHR for a few months to write a gamebook. It's called The Caverns of None Shall Pass. It takes place in a fantastic far future where the planet Urth has been mutated by a series of apocalyptic cataclysms. You will create a character by choosing from 5 races and developing 5 skill...

If I might make a suggestion: you should allow public voting in some capacity. Just speaking from experience, people forget about the voting threads if they are not active, and lists of games also help people think of games. I'll second this notion. If we publicly post lists, people will also see g...

I am currently at the slime boss. It's a very good game. The controls feel tight and the pacing is very brisk. Here my thoughts so far. *The haste spell seems useless. Is there some hidden purpose to this? *The visual could be spruced up some. I'm not suggesting redraw the tiles, but instead make th...

Coincidentally, I haven't been posting any new games for a few months because I've been writing a game book. It's not quite like a Choose Your Own Adventure. Instead, the structure partially randomized to make it replayable. There is also a character creation system and statistics. More than anythin...
