Hello, traveler!
Perhaps you've already heard distant echoes about VTTs, or maybe this is your first expedition into this territory. Either way, prepare your torch and adjust your cape — let's explore this essential concept together for anyone who loves RPGs!
What does VTT mean?
VTT stands for Virtual Tabletop. In essence, it's an online platform that simulates that classic table where, surrounded by people, characters, and stories, we create worlds, face challenges, and share unforgettable journeys.
In the physical world, we use paper maps, miniatures, character sheets, dice, and lots of imagination. A VTT transports all of this to the digital realm, facilitating remote game sessions, automating rules, and opening new possibilities with visual effects, soundtracks, automatic dice rolls, and much more.
Why use a VTT?
Besides allowing groups separated by cities, countries, or even continents to continue playing together, a VTT offers tools that make the experience more dynamic and engaging. Imagine having interactive maps, real-time movement, accessible lore anytime, and epic soundtracks that accompany each scene!
The VTT is the digital grimoire that contains everything: from your character sheet to the illustration of that shadowy creature lurking in the forest.
Meet Arcana Pixel: much more than a VTT
Here at Arcana Pixel, we decided to go beyond the traditional idea of a VTT. Our platform was forged as an all-in-one, seamlessly integrating:
- Interactive maps and real-time movement
- Storytelling system with lore and notes, public or private
- Dynamic and customizable character sheets
- Immersive visual and sound effects
- Status control, effects, and automated rolls
- Integrated communication with voice, text, and video
- And, of course... dice rolling, with or without the blessing of the gods!
Furthermore, Arcana Pixel is modular and extensible: anyone can adapt rules, create new systems, develop automations, or add maps with ease. Our mission is to ensure that each table has its own identity and that creative power is always available to the community.
An adventure built together
Arcana Pixel is a collaborative and open project, where anyone can contribute with code, ideas, or suggestions. Our GitHub repository is always ready to welcome new lines of code, while Discord is the lively tavern where we exchange ideas, test new features, and celebrate each small achievement.
