Aleatoriedad y tiradas de dados

You can add random functions to your gameplay, which unlocks the following types of game functionality:

• Random dice rolls of any denomination (e.g. D20, D2, D100)
• Random loot or rewards
• Increasing values by random amounts

So instead of:

You can now do:

Option 1: Dice notation

This turns a value such as affection into a random roll instead of a fixed number. You are making the affection equal to a dice roll.

Example: If you write 1d20, the game picks a number from 1 to 20, and that number becomes affection.

What does it look like?

Option 2: Random between X and Y

This sets a value to a random number in a range, with an optional bonus added. Pick a random number between X and Y, set affection to that, and you can add a fixed bonus on top of it.

Example: If you write a minimum value of 1 and a maximum value of 5, plus 2:

• The game picks a number from 1 to 5.
• The game always adds 2.
• The outcome will always be between 3 and 7.

Option 3: Increase by a random amount

Similar to the previous option, but instead of setting a new score it increases or decreases the player's existing score.

Outcome

After applying any of these options, use a checkpoint or a choice requiring a minimum number of points for a desirable outcome.

Example: You need at least 6 points for the positive outcome "Heal the Love Interest." Position your checkpoint or choice immediately after the random step.

• If the random roll is greater than 6 → positive outcome
• If the dice roll is less than 6 → negative outcome
