It's been a while, but we are thinking about going back to our bread and butter and doing another Slice of Life game in the same manner as our trio of Sol City games that did well and ran about three years on here.
Mechanics will be basically the same, but for a different flavor, we're going to put the setting in the 1980's, probably late 80's. Naturally, it's going to be set in Florida so if you liked playing GTA Vice City and/or slice of life games in general then this will probably be your cup of tea.
CS will be simple as usual and we'll do a steadily moving time-skip with events/attractions for continuity. Those that played with us before know the drill. There will be a MAP of course to help with a sense of place and distance and players will be able to make locations as they like and contributions to the public/commercial landscape will be encouraged.
The main goal is to do something different and of course have fun. Our last three games did well because we kept it simple and just allowed plots and relationships to form naturally in the context of a unique setting. Doing things in the era of the 80's we think would add a neat spin to the game when there's basically no cellphones, computers are rare and life was much more local in general.
Oh, and basically everyone still smoked indoors.
You don't need to have grown up or lived in the time period to play, those that are old farts, like me (the rest of you know who you are), can provide some context, but there's more than enough information out there if you're curious, though we'll still probably put together a nice resources section to help get your creativity flowing.
So let us know what you think!
