I didn't lay out so...Oh, I got want you meant. I didn't lay out some of my thinking. I always considered planes in D&D as other worlds you can visit. With a space game you have an infinite number of trippy worlds you can visit, so if there were some other dimensions you could visit in a space game I'd personally want it to be even odder than sending a drop ship through a gas giant. Well, also with a space game I'm thinking more scientifically and my mind goes to Flatland and trying to realistically describe what other "dimensions" might be like.Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-47091264663265366422012-06-03T14:31:53.772-07:002012-06-03T14:31:53.772-07:00I didn't mean extra dimensions in that way. I ...I didn't mean extra dimensions in that way. I meant parallel worlds, in much the same way that dnd has planes. Of course, the only way to reach them could be by traveling in the 5th direction. And there might be creatures that live not in a single parallel world, but in the whole 5th dimensional she-bang (your fractal creatures).The Rubberduckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12585052552943070379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-10102659103641727392012-06-03T13:17:07.902-07:002012-06-03T13:17:07.902-07:00sounds good, anon.

I like the idea of weird fifth dimensional creatures poking into ours and looking like fractals and such. I have no idea how I'd transmit that dimension to players though. Hmm, maybe something like Minecrafts's SkyGrid Survival:<br /><br />http://minecraftworld.wordpress.com/2012/05/08/seth-blings-skygrid-minecraft-survival-map-download/<br /><br />But even that isn't as trippy as this:<br /><br />http://recedingrules.blogspot.com/2010/08/great-modron-city.html<br /><br />But, then, I don't know how to pull that off with words. Maybe Cyclopeatron could.Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-58410174400247845192012-06-02T12:09:18.182-07:002012-06-02T12:09:18.182-07:00How about other dimensions?

Especially if those dimensions also have their own stuff.The Rubberduckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12585052552943070379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-51665402917834498672012-06-01T15:59:26.866-07:002012-06-01T15:59:26.866-07:00What you've just described sounds a great deal...What you've just described sounds a great deal like Stars Without Number. <br /><br />So far there are even already supplements for a cyberpunk planet, espionage and forbidden tech , and for "naval" adventures.
