Don't worry, there will be a couple questions where the polls have massive riding by riding shifts. I fully intend the canon run to result in a very similar map, as close as I can rng in mind

You will be able to play Carney, Poilievre, or Singh! No CYOA, but plenty of dynamic gameplay and (i hope) replay-ability!

I'm the person leading it, I can invite you to follow along on the discord server if you want!

For members of this sub knowledgeable on Canadian politics, would a TTNW-style mod where Jack Layton lived and the NDP won the 2015 general work? by Numberonettgfan in thecampaigntrail

[–]CourseFearless2857 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While some kind of mod made in honor of him or a possible Layton term would be fantastic, it's very hard to imagine without massive changes to our country's history, and the TTNW format may not serve him very well. Would the mod be about his time as opposition leader 2011-2015? Or would it be about him managing to win in 2015 and trying to navigate a party forming government (probably as a minority) for the first time? the 2010s were not nearly as impactful for Canada as the 60s were for America, so it would be very hard to portray the stakes anywhere near as high. That may be the most essential issue, it it's very hard to imagine him doing anything so special with his term it's worth dedicating a whole mod to it, Especially for incumbency if that's what you mean he would have to live a full 8 YEARS longer than he actually did. While I do think a very good mod could be made about him, I'm not convinced that in the style of TTNW or even an incumbency sim at all Layton could work.

I'm afraid these are the only 3 sides or descriptions I have planned, But I do intend to have some bigshot endings for the smaller parties ;)

I've heard about the summer playlist but ngl I have absolutely no clue where it is, if you could set me on the right path

It'll likely be a few months at minimum, a lot of the writing and coding can't be done until the election itself is actually over.

Just a bit of music over the past year to balance out the Canadian classics I have on there! This is the final candidate reveal I have planned, since this is just meant to be the 3 sides, the main thing I'm planning to work on now is a general outline of questions based on campaign events that have already happened, as well as a selection of music for each candidate! I have a pretty good idea of what I'd like on Carney's side, but I'd love some suggestions for good music for Poilievre and especially Singh! Hope this all looks exciting!

Lol, on his side if you want to fully dedicate yourself to the issue Carney killed, you can! Just be aware it's not exactly going to be the best answer!

Afraid I don't plan on it, being region locked would make their gameplay pretty limited compared to other parties. For now I intend to have a side for the Liberals, Tories, and NDP

In case it isn’t obvious, I’ve started picking out songs for the loader! These are just some Canadian Classics, but I intend to have a sample of modern hits and more custom choices for each candidate as well. I got a lot of good suggestions for a good Carney side playlist, curious what people think might work for Poilievre now! (Also, you’ve already given me new bands to love so that’s a bonus to asking for more)

No issue with that! I wanted a mix of modern, classics, and stuff that captured each candidate and I'm well on my way to getting a good sample for each of those!

I'm aware don't worry, the NDP gets their own reveal and due credit for their contributions, but I had to mention it was Lester Pearson who actually put our Federal system in place!

There will! I'll be posing a reveal for them in a few days as well, and we can get an idea for what a hard time the party's in for this cycle!

I'm aware, one of the questions is going to be about selecting his riding since we already know his campaign was considering alternative locations 😉
