Roadmap

My Idle RPG is a free fan project, built in the open on the SRD 5.2 rules. Here’s what’s done and what’s coming. Plans change as the game is played, so the order isn’t a promise.

Released

  1. Released

    Characters that grow like tabletop heroes

    Create a character the way you would at the table, and level them to 20.

    • 12 classes, 9 species with lineages, and 4 backgrounds with origin feats
    • Standard array, point buy or 4d6-drop-lowest ability scores
    • Subclasses, feats, ability score increases and epic boons
    • Up to 5 adventurers at once
  2. Released

    Loot and every SRD magic item

    All 262 magic items from the SRD, each doing something in the game.

    • Drops, a treasure chest on every new floor, and a traveling merchant
    • Equipment slots, attunement and curses
    • Weapons and armor that take the form your class can use
    • A compendium to complete
  3. Released

    Play on any device

    Start on your laptop and check in from your phone.

    • Optional sign-in syncs your adventurers across devices
    • Saves stay on your device too, so offline play keeps working
    • If two devices both played, you choose which save to keep
  4. Released

    Battle scene and dungeon map

    Watch the fight: pixel-art heroes and monsters, animated battles, and a map of every floor.

    • Your hero sprite shows your species, armor, weapon and shield
    • A sprite for every SRD monster, on dungeon floors that change as you delve
    • Attacks, spells, critical hits, healing, loot and level-ups, animated
    • A generated map for each floor, with your hero walking room to room
  5. Released

    Monsters with their full abilities

    Dragons breathe fire, mages cast spells, and legendary monsters act between turns.

    • Breath weapons, spellcasting and legendary actions from the SRD stat blocks
    • Saving throws and conditions for your hero (poisoned, frightened, paralyzed…)
    • Protective items like the Ring of Evasion and Spellguard Shield come into their own
  6. Released

    A fairer climb

    Monsters in the SRD are built for parties; your hero fights alone. The climb is now paced for that.

    • Auto-advance climbs only when fights are comfortable, and backs off after close calls
    • A defeat no longer pauses the game: your hero falls back and tries again after a level up
    • Gold paced to SRD prices, with magic item crafting and paid shop restocks to spend it on
  7. Released

    Choose your spells

    Prepare your own spells, with buffs, control and summons added to the spellbook.

    • A spellbook with SRD prepared-spell counts (automatic preparation stays the default)
    • Bless, Haste, Hold Person, Web, Spiritual Weapon, Animate Dead and more
    • Casters pick the best buff, control or summon for each fight, one concentration spell at a time
  8. Released

    Every class feature in play

    Nearly everything on your character sheet now does something, and the sheet says what.

    • Druid Wild Shape into SRD beasts, and Circle of the Land magic
    • Stunning Strike, Brutal Strike, Cunning Strike, Metamagic, Arcane Recovery and dozens more
    • Weapon masteries Topple, Slow and Push; species traits, lineage spells and epic boons
    • Skills that help you explore: more loot, ambushes, faster floors, haggling with the merchant
  9. Released

    Monster groups

    Packs of monsters on deeper floors, so Fireball, Cleave and breath weapons shine.

    • Groups of up to four monsters, each with its own initiative and turn
    • Area spells hit the whole pack; Cleave strikes a second foe
    • The battle scene shows the whole group
  10. Released

    Adventuring parties

    Recruit up to three companions as you delve deeper, and fight as a party.

    • New party slots open on floors 5, 10 and 15; build each recruit in the full character creator
    • Every hero rolls initiative and takes turns; healers look after the party
    • One shared backpack and purse; finds go to whoever they help most
    • Fights grow with the party, and a fallen hero is helped back up after a win

Everything released is playable today.
