Show HN: Tabletop Roleplaying with jQuery & Node.js

1 points by jlesk ↗ HN
I've just launched Fabletop, a web-based "virtual tabletop" for roleplaying. It was created with jQuery on the front-end, and Node on the back end.

When you register, you get your own "table" page, which is a kind of persistent chatroom where you can GM games. The miniatures, dice, battlemat, and chat system are all built in.

The default ruleset (d6 dice pool + trait-based characters) is intended for quick, mostly freeform games. This sidesteps many of the common problems with chat-based gaming, and should make it easier for players to join any game posted on the site.

I'd appreciate any feedback.

Thanks!
