I legit used Google sheets for my pandemic game and it worked extremely well.
VAMPIRE-ON-A-BEAR
Dude, I’m so impressed by this. Great job and imagination.
Paint streamed over with Discord.
Notepad streamed over a Zoom meeting. Each token is represented by a single character, as in an old-school CLI roguelike.
That sounds like doing it the hard way.
I was kinda doing this with Photoshop and discord, just because I liked the tools in Photoshop for moving things etc. I realised they were all in Google Slides and switched over for the latter half of my pandemic era campaign and honestly it worked like a dream.
I now know that Owlbear Rodeo is basically the same option again but without the rest of the unnecessary PowerPoint fluff.
Yeah, we’re using owlbear rodeo in a campaign I’m in, and it’s super easy and smooth. I definitely prefer it to roll20, which I think is pretty clunky
I prefer offline whenever possible and we love to put minis and terrain on the table.
If course! That’s always the number one choice, when possible. Sadly, it’s just not an option as frequently as I (and plenty of others) would like.
Those minis and terrain look rad, too! I also like that part of the hobby in and of itself. I could spend hours just painting minis and making terrain while watching or listening to something.
We recently played a oneshot on Owlbear Rodeo instead of our usual Foundry or Roll20 and I much preferred the simpler Owlbear experience. With the others it was usually a question of “how do I do this with this VTT” and with Owlbear everyone managed their character on their own and we could just play. And I think it gave the DM more confidence to do theatre of the mind when something wasn’t prepared.
Tabletop Simulator + VR was way crazier than i thought for the first (and only) time we tried it
PowerPoint pandemic player here.
Good times.
Redrazers does some good work, but i just cant quit darthmarth’s autosheets
