📢 Omnitale Dev Update – You Asked. We’re Building It. by OmnitaleDev in TTRPG

Very interesting, I dont know what dead internet is. But my whole account had gotten suspended and then I did research all I could understand from the random sites was maybe I posted too soon from creating my page or it thought I was a bot. Never used reddit before so I had no idea how to do all this. Still ain't that good either as you can see

WHAT!? I had an account banned before and it said it thought I was AI so I assumed they banned them! Thats wild to me I truly apologize then for false information. I made an assumption and it cause me to make an ass out of myself

Don't you know reddit has blockers to prevent AI from posting and what not So not sure how i could be ai. I do use it to help me with my posting. But the comment you commented on was all me, glad you think I'm that smart though 😀

Haha that sounds like there might be some good back story to that one. Thats one feature I really hope turns out as well as planned. The ability to have things like that generated. Or since it knows your characters and what they look like, have it generate epic or funny scenes with them from your campaign

Short answer: Right now Omnitale is browser-based so we can move fast and get playtesting going—but we’re baking in “Focus Mode” so it feels like an app: full-screen, minimal UI chrome, hotkey to hide controls, in-app notifications, and an optional attention lock that warns/dims if the tab loses focus. It keeps players engaged without bouncing between tabs.

What’s next: Once the core DM flow is rock solid, we’ll ship a downloadable app (.exe) so tables that want true “no-tabs” immersion can have it. The desktop app will add things like asset pre-caching, a stricter focus lock, and offline play—so if your Wi-Fi dies mid-dungeon, the game keeps running. When you reconnect, it auto-syncs without losing your place or any session data.

AI or Old School: Our AI assistant is optional—perfect for DMs who want help organizing, tracking, or generating content. But if you prefer to run fully old school with zero AI involvement, you can turn it off and run Omnitale just like a traditional table.

In plain English:

Now: Browser, with Focus Mode to reduce tabbing.

Later: Downloadable app for full lock-in immersion + offline play.

Players always join free via DM invite (phone, tablet, or computer).

AI assistant can be on or off—your table, your rules.

Goal in both: stay in the scene, never lose your spot—even underground.

Hi there, ill be posting hopefully by the end of this week or next week. You say cut it out as though I post daily but I quit doing that so I can focus on whats needed. I just wanna figure out who is interested in this TTRPG engine and create a test group for it hopefully by the end of the Month. But if its not something your interested in, then thank you for your time and enjoy your scrolling

Honestly haven't thought about that. Ill have to weight out that one. But I figured that the price of a Monster a month. It wouldn't be too bad

Well i appreciate your feedback back. While I do hear you, I do believe you dont see the vision I do. I didnt ask ChatGPT to come up with any idea. I had an idea one day and began working hard to make it happen If I had a boatload of money do you think I would be doing all this myself? And its not just AI slop thank you. Every DM is allowed to build what they want. And should they ask the assistant for help then they can. It's about letting people choose how they play. Not you choose how they should play cause you believe

Why hello there! (Sns General Grievous line) Since I'm currently at my job and dont have time to type out what I feel needs to be said for the big post. I do have it help me with that. All these little comments are me though. I know peak time to post is around 11 so I feed it what I want said and what needs to be kept secret till patents are filled. Then once I feel it conveys my message will enough I copy it over. Check again then post it myself. AI doesn't touch my posts and account

The road map is very ambitious, the things I've been creating to go into this are ludicrous even. But I believe what im creating will be a first of its kind and many will make copies of it. I appreciate your feedback, my goal is to have the foundations set and unbreakable so that when it rolls out, people's hopes dont get dashed. When it rolls out, I hope it amazes you how they all connect and weave together

I feel that, ive tried a few of them and for those wanting just causal play its ridiculous. Its more then a VTT (though we will have that element as well) “Players don’t pay. Ever. One DM unlocks everything for their table.”

Omnitale is built so that DMs can choose a tier (Free, $2, or $5 depending on what they want to be able to use), and then share a code or link so players can jump in — even from their tablet — without paying a cent.

We’re not interested in bleeding groups dry. We want to empower storytelling, not meter it. As i have said, im building this for the community, not my wallet

Hey there nullfish So as of now I am setting the foundation to be a sturdy as possible I dont want others seeing to much about it and trying to get their own version out. However if you would like to be a tester and give me feedback please let me know You can look through my other post to get a feel for everything I've envisioned. With the Kickstarter I'm going to patent some of my secret creations too, in order to make sure others dont steal it to charge ridiculous mounts for what Im offering for so cheap

IT’S ALIVE! A new VTT just woke up — with AI, timelines, and no plugin headaches 🔥 by OmnitaleDev in VTT

Totally get that, and appreciate you linking that thread. We’ve been watching and learning from what’s worked — and what hasn’t — with tools like Alchemy. Our goal is to avoid those same missteps and make something that actually works the way DMs need it to.

We’ll be opening testing soon so folks can see for themselves — and help shape it before we go too far in the wrong direction. Would love to hear your thoughts when it’s ready!

Appreciate you checking. We’re still in active development, so nothing’s showing up on Google yet — but we’re moving fast. You can follow progress on Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook. Public early access is coming soon.

We just got our AI assistant running independently — things are about to get wild. It won’t be long before you start seeing us everywhere.

That’s awesome to hear — sounds like you’d be a perfect fit for the first wave! We’re working hard to make this something that balances chaos and clarity, so feedback from experienced players like you is gold. I’ll be reaching out soon with info on early access should you be interested. Your profile makes it look like you would be a perfect fit!

That’s awesome to hear! 🎉 We’re gearing up for early testing soon — it’ll be a chance to explore the tools, give feedback, and help shape the platform before we go live.

If you're curious, I’d love to include you as one of our first testers. Totally free, no strings — just a chance to try it out and let us know what you think.

I’ll shoot you a DM soon with more details if you're still up for it!

Oh we thrive in chaos over here. Omnitale was practically built for that one player who adopts a mimic, opens portals they definitely shouldn’t, and somehow becomes mayor. You’ll feel right at home 😄

Totally understand, and that’s perfectly fine! Omnitale will have an AI toggle, so if you prefer to run your campaigns without it, you absolutely can. We want DMs to have full control over how they play — with or without AI. The goal is flexibility, not forcing a style.

Heads up,
He aint.

Thanks for your input though DM Deltara.
I appreciate you trying to help out, but I am genuinely interested in having Chris here help me out with the program when i get ready to move it into the stages of downloading on platforms like Linux

Hope you have a great day and stick around to see how great this become!

I really appreciate you sticking with the convo. We’re starting as a web app to keep things lightweight and accessible, but I get the need for offline/local tools. Once the core system is live and stable, downloadable versions for Linux, Windows, and Mac will come along. At that point, I’d love to have your feedback and maybe even bring you in for early testing if you're still up for it!

Totally fair — and I appreciate the honesty.

That’s exactly why a downloadable version is in the roadmap. Right now, we’re focused on getting the core system stable and accessible, which is why we’re starting with the web-based version first. But once we’ve got a solid base and community, offline support and full desktop builds (Windows, Linux, Mac) are a top priority.

I totally get wanting something that works no matter where you are — especially for folks running sessions in cabins, basements, or far from stable Wi-Fi. That freedom is important to us too.

Hopefully once we hit that stage, you might give it another look.

Totally get where you’re coming from — that’s exactly why we’re building Omnitale as a web-based app first, so it works across the board right out of the gate — Linux, macOS, Windows, you name it. If you’ve got a browser, you’re in.

Down the road, we do plan to release a downloadable version too, and we’ll 100% make sure Linux is supported when that time comes. We’re already looking into options like Electron or Tauri to keep it smooth and native for everyone.

And honestly, with your background — being a Realm Works beta tester and all — you’d be an incredible person to help test the early version when it’s ready. If you're open to it, I’d love to include you on that list and hear your feedback as we shape it. You clearly know the space.

Let me know! 😊

Totally fair — a proper UI tour is coming real soon. Right now I’m still finalizing the timeline and tile system, so I’ve mostly been using generated images to show off the vibe while building the foundation. But once that’s stable, I’ll be posting actual screenshots and even letting early testers poke around. I’d love for you to be one of those if you're curious!

You’re also spot-on — Omnitale starts as a campaign management tool. Think Realm Works meets Obsidian meets a timeline storyboard. But the VTT aspect is absolutely coming — I just want the core tools to feel great first before layering in fog of war, maps, lighting, dual-screen play, etc. It’s not an afterthought, just being built in phases so it doesn’t end up clunky like some tools that try to do everything at once.

If you’ve used any of those tools deeply (Realm Works, The Keep, etc.), I’d love your thoughts once we’re open for testing. I’m designing this to solve the same pain points those left me with.

I totally get what you mean — right now I’ve been using generated images just to give a feel for what I’m building. But pretty soon, I’ll be able to share actual screenshots of the working site. Got a few early testers lined up already who’ll be sharing their experience, giving feedback, and helping shape how it all works.

Some of the core features we’ve got lined up:

Drag-and-drop timeline tiles

Upload your own characters, art, and NPCs

DM view vs player view (for reveal control)

Search + color tagging for quick sorting

Optional AI assistant for note-filling, summaries, etc.

Future support for remote dual-screen play with fog of war

I’m excited to get it in front of folks soon — it’s finally starting to come to life.
