Animation Lead on Wanderstop! She/Her & Transgenderrific! Past: Radial Games, Gaslamp Games



Idle ideas:

Atttune is replaced with Vibe, where you just kinda naturally trip over things that are useful to you (or inconvenient, on a failed roll)

Each score is a Landmark, in-between landmarks you're On The Road and downtime actions take place when it's that player's turn to drive the car

New faction: The Locals. When you would gain Rep with them you instead tick the Assist clock and when you would lose Rep with them you instead tick the Retribution clock. When either respective clock is full a recurring character from a previous town enters the scene to help/hinder your efforts

Stress is Gas and represents your chars burning bright with passion - or burning themselves out by pushing themselves too hard. When you use it all up you're Out of Gas

Your car has a healthbar that represents both damage and fuel, etc. If it's empty at any point during On The Road (downtime) you have to Push the Car, and either consume downtime actions to get to the next repair place or pay coin/rep to call for a tow

Ahaha this whole train of thought for me starred with "one of the core assumptions of blades is that you're in a single pressure cooker location, how would things need to change if that wasn't the case" and then I starred thinking about how fun road trip movies are

the thing about the road trip is that the single location comes with you bc it's the car, right? you replace the turf sheet with the car sheet and you're good to go

also, replacing attune with vibe doesn't need to mean things aren't weird if you set the road trip in the pnw :3
