A dungeon room a day, every day, for 2023.
I’m not going to post any links to it, but there’s apparently a lot of talk going on out there on this concept of a mega-dungeon. Of course, I think it could be useful for any format short of said mega-dungeon as well. Maybe multiple mega-dungeons, planning ahead for one-shots, many different smaller dungeons, mansion, cave, what-have-you.
Some sources have themes for each week, basically listed like a writing prompt. One week of rooms turns into one level. By the end of the year you have 52 levels. The real question is, how long would it take to even play through this massive project?
None of this really accounts for expected levels of play, but that doesn’t seem to be slowing many people down. Of course, we’re only almost to day 3. New year’s resolutions always look good in the first week! :smalltongue:
Sean McCoy is the name behind this apparently. It was posted as his personal goal and a lot of people are stepping up to give it a go. Ultimately it has been framed as a writing practice, however many rooms you end up with at the end.
People have been encouraged not to overthink it, use a generator if you want, and even write down “Empty Room” if you have a blank day. Among many other ever-expanding tips. It’s not too late to join in! :smallsmile:
