Small Updates

Hey Everybody,

My website has been updated, and the new version of MCD has been uploaded. I have added a set of vehicle rules to the game, and changed 1 tiny mechanic. Anyway, I'm currently stumped for new game ideas.

RE: Small Updates

What I do when I'm out of ideas is post a request for the WEIRDEST ideas ever. I get things like, "Make a Double Dragon RPG with electronic dice" or "Evolution, where you mate your way to the top" or "I loved those old cartoons like Thundercats or Silverhawks. I want to play a spacey metal-skinned cowboy with a guitar!"

Anyhow, here's some ideas:


  • Players are cherubs. The game revolves around them fulfilling their cherubic duties best, thus earning more time doting on Venus.
  • The GM plays the part of a house, and each Player is a member of the family.
  • A d20 Teen Soap Opera game (like Dawson's Creek or 90210).
  • Players must do everything in haiku. Or limerick. Or something.

Had an idea like that after watching Moulin Rouge, where half the dialogue is song lyrics. Pick an artist for each of your stats (whatever they may be), when you talk in their song lyrics that stat gets a boost.
