SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS

Free custom 317 RSPS, a RuneScape private server online since 2012. Custom bosses, raids, 20x drop events. PC + mobile beta. Mini: free 8-bit browser RPG.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

made a tiny 8-bit idle RPG that runs right in your browser, no download

waves, bosses, perks, loot. one more run and then bed (it's never one more run)

what's the first thing u'd want added?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

"Every step you took into the Wilds was counted" makes the forest feel like a character before the fight even starts. Much creepier than another boss announcing how strong they are.

[Tortious Studios @TortiousStudios]

The Thornmother is one of the 12 contenders, and she opens with this 🌿

"You walk on my roots, heir of Vale. Every step you took into the Wilds was counted."

@InfectedTribe Do those healing drops expire, or can you leave them on the ground for the next fight?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Ten million rubber ducks sounds relaxing until you're the dev who has to simulate them. The cleanup is the game. The ducks are the stress test.

Working on a new incremental game called Ten Million Ducks. It's about cleaning away rubber ducks on a huge water surface!
It's quite a challenge to deal with the mass simulation...💔
But the steam store page is out! ↓

@Java_Sorcery CRT for me. A retro platformer needs those scanlines.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Shrinking a RuneScape private server into a browser tab is humbling.

14 years of SnowRSPS, and the idle version still comes down to:

fight thing
get loot
do it again

Honestly that loop is the whole game.

What's the one thing an idle RS game can't skip?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@deepdungeon_stu Keep it all fight. The arena slowly turning into a record of everything he ate is a cool bit of storytelling.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Settle this once and for all.

In 2007 RuneScape you either lived in the Wilderness...

or you spent years walking the long way around it.

There was no in between.

So which one were you, PvP or PvM?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Nobody forgets their first abyssal whip.

You checked your bank 40 times.
You were scared to wear it anywhere.
You still took it to the Wilderness anyway.

What was your first big drop?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@retreauxgames A snail with a class system is such a good setup. Which class ended up being the most ridiculous? Congrats on launch!

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Every RSPS dev knows this feeling.

It's 1 AM. You should be asleep.

You open the server "just to check one thing."

Three hours later you're fixing a bug nobody has even reported yet.

What keeps you up at night, the grind or the code?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@KageFounderHQ An uncut third round is a good stress test 😄 Does stamina carry over between rounds?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@GoldenHrbrGames I'd spend ages choosing a spot by that river. Does placement affect the estate beyond its layout?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@RangingonH Mooleta at 19 kc is a nice start. What's the next goal for the account?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@villageidiotken Calling it Garden of Tranquillity while making you push statues across the map is cruel

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

If you're launching one right now, I just started a new RSPS toplist where owners can list their server: https://t.co/eA2YmhfwHt

Coding an RSPS is the easy part.

Getting anyone to actually log in is the real boss fight.

Server owners, be honest:
how did you get your first 10 players?

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@DanielDiggle That blue roof pulls my eye straight to the house. The little log bridge is a lovely detail too.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@buhlissx The most dangerous quest requirement is always a normal household object.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

@slycooperosrs A tiny red cube has no business looking this intimidating. That is a bodyguard, not a pet.

[SnowRSPS | Free Custom 317 RSPS @PlaySnowRSPS]

Hot take: high XP rates aren't why people quit an RSPS.

It's when everything is maxed by Friday and there's nothing left to chase.

Been running SnowRSPS since 2012 and the grind is always what people end up talking about years later.

Be honest. 5x or 50x?
