Open Tabletop

OPEN SOURCE TV-BASED RPG TABLETOP

Open Tabletop is a project to create an affordable, TV-based tabletop experience for DMs and players. Ever since I saw the Microsoft Surface D&D demo, I've been fascinated by the potential of using video for tabletop RPGs. I've built several systems to try to create a fun experience around this concept, and while they've all worked to some degree, they've also all been far more costly than would be ideal. With large TV's becoming very affordable, and things like the Raspberry Pi gaining prominence, this project aims to make an affordable, extensible video tabletop system available to everyone.
