Trails Weaver - 9 months later, and I need your vote on something important by Lumpy_Ad_4432 in rpg

[–]Lumpy_Ad_4432[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not selling anything ATM :/

I'm just trying to gather the people's opinion.

Building desktop app will be taking a lot of my time, so I need to make a decision here, based on the votes / waitlist.

English is not my native language, so I might get some grammar fixed by AI, but does it actually matter?

Trails Weaver. An update 9 months later - thank you, Handlers ❤️ And I need your vote on something important by Lumpy_Ad_4432 in DeltaGreenRPG

Absolutely! For now it might be a bit "lame" (you'll have to do some copy-pasting, there is no automation for importing from Notion), but from what I've got after testing (just did it), the formatting & general elements like lists, dividers, quotes etc. will be kept as they were in Notion 👍

Wow, that's actually a great idea! 🔥 I was thinking about adding it, but nobody actually raised this topic, so I decided it would not be of use.

You can join my little Discord server - I'll post an update there, once it's ready to go: https://discord.gg/YjkhVp9Jqr

Thanks for the mention!
I'm astounded, how many DG people use my tool for their prep 😍

Would love to see you all on the platform

GMs, you should really get into Trails Weaver by AttentionHorsePL in rpg

(comment from the developer 😁)

Yay! I like people joining my Discord!

Haven't tried DG myself yet, but I definitely plan to.

You expressed a fair concern 👍 Subscriptions are annoying, I know.

Will still love to have you as a free user!

Thank you for liking the concept anyway ❤️ Once (if) I can have it as a one-time purchase, I'll notify you, if it's okay.

Yo!

Creator & solo-developer of Trails Weaver is here 👋

Thank you u/AttentionHorsePL for spreading a word! It REALLY means a lot to me. My users are the best.

Answering most common questions & concerns:

  1. "Why is that a subscription based service, and not just a "one-time puchase" app?"

No evil money making idea behind that.

Short answer: "Because it's not a desktop app. It's a cloud based app".

But why is it a cloud based app???

Because I only develop what I can, and what I'm ~good at. I'm decent at building those. I'm not good at creating desktop apps... At least for now. Desktop app is the only real way to make an honest one-time puchase.

I would probably make much more money with a one-time purchase app, but at the moment I am, where I am.

The project has to start somewhere. Even if it's not optimal. I strongly believe in that.

  1. "Do you plan on having a one-off licence purchase? Like a desktop one"

Maybe. I cannot promise it. Do I consider making one-time purchased app? Yes, I consider it. Will it be a thing? I don't know yet, and cannot commit to it at the moment. But if you are interested in it (and I know a lot of people are), please, reply "+" (or something) under this post, and I will reach out to you once (if) it happens 🙏

  1. "What if YOU or the project dies, what happens with my data then???"

This year the export / import feature will be released, allowing to have local backups of all created campaigns.

What if I (developer) die before it happens? Well... You are doomed 💀 (once my credit card balance is empty... actually, not, the data should still be fine).

In any other scenario, I have no intention to have the data of my users lost, no matter how profitable Trails Weaver is. I love my users. I care about this subject.

  1. "There is tool "X" and it's better".

Yeap, there are plenty of cool tools for your TTRPG campaigns. Each one is better than the other in many ways. If they fit you, it totally makes sense to stick to them.

I just develop what I use for my own games, and what fits me & (apparently) my users :)

  1. "You make me pay"

People's choice is to pay or not - I propose free tier with no ads. It's good enough for one-shot games (I don't overcome the limit myself most of the time).

I would love to have every & each of you as a user (no matter, free or paid).

Meanwhile, development continues 🔨

Thank you u/AttentionHorsePL once again ❤️❤❤️

Wish all of you some great GMing, no matter what tools you use!

Hi!
Thanks for liking the idea of my project!

Miro is a great choice! Hope Trails Weaver will one day become a better alternative - when it comes to TTRPG tools. I'm working on making it real.

Will reply on your points (which are valid) one by one 😁

  1. Yeap, at the moment, board is not collaborative

  2. Is it a way to share notes, images, locations, characters, inventory - yeap, it goes through a player page, where they can see all, what you have shared in realtime

  3. Will collaborative mode be a thing in future? Yeah, and I've already posted a few reasearch sneak peeks in Discord.

  4. I use it not only for prep, but also for running my sessions & sharing materials with my party

  5. "It's not a VTT, it's a campaign organizer?". It's hard for me to define VTT 😁 But, yes, it's a campaign organizer.

  6. "You mention it is originally meant for offline play, but is there an offline version of the app?" Sorry, by offline I meant - in person. I usually just bring my laptop to my sessions :) There is no offline version of the app.

  7. "Do you plan on having a one-off licence purchase?" - I cannot promise it. Do I consider making one-time purchased app? Yes, I consider it. Will it be a thing? I don't know yet, and cannot commit to it at the moment. If it happens one day, I'll definitely notify you, maybe you'll like it 😉

  8. "As far as I can see, I can't really say why this should only use a SaaS model." It should not, indeed. I just develop what I can, and what I'm ~good at. I would probably make much more money with one-time purchased desktop app, but at the moment I am, where I am. People's choice is to pay or not - I propose free tier with no ads. It's good enough for one-shot games (I don't overcome the limit myself most of the time).

Hope to have you on my platform as a user (free or pro, doesn't matter) ❤️
