This is awesome. I love seeing interesting game design ideas like this!

Any plans to add ASCII art and/or Emojis? (not genuine, but you could make nice art in chat)

I haven't played it myself, but it's a really cool idea to make something which you can play in twitch chat. :)

Unfortunately the game sounds very similar to a board game called munchkin, so it would have been nice for you to come up with a more original idea for what game to make.

@wh05herlock There was an age when only those RPG games existed on computers (mainly online). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_game

This is a great avenue to explore! Hope to see more like this.

@s-ed I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I actually really like the idea of this game, and think it's a really cool entry. I'm just saying I would've thought it was even more cool if the game-play was more original. :)

So many potentials on this idea. I can imagine people on Slack would be into this and stop working!

So... I like the idea, but I don't know how it works. I get into the game, wait for my turn, try help, try all the commands, and it just says I can't use items and there's no way to attack. I don't know, it's a cool idea, but I think it needs to be simplified.

Also I don't like the way the bot responds to the help command - instead of separate messages, it should all be in one big message that breaks down individually. Right now help is really confusing to use.

Hope to see an evolution of this! I love experimental stuff! :)

I got confused about how to attack when I find a monster. Maybe the game plays better when there are more users. Also it would be good to have an image on the video feed explaining the game, I just see a loading spinner.
