Build with us
Celeste VD is a virtual tabletop with a Dungeon Master built in, a living world that keeps moving between sessions, and a campaign that has been running at a real table for years. It is not finished, and that is the point.
The repo is private
Access is granted case by case, after we talk. Nothing to clone from this page.
Answer within 24 hours
Every application is read by hand — by John, not by a filter.
Small on purpose
Before the Kickstarter, the circle stays tight. Fit matters more than volume.
Where the work is
Pick the one that sounds like you. If none of them do, say so — the last option is there for a reason.
Content
Modules, subclasses, worlds, bestiaries. The engine reads a documented format — if you can write a campaign, you can ship one.
Engine
Combat resolution, rules automation, real-time multiplayer. TypeScript throughout, React and Pixi.js on the client, Fastify and Socket.io on the server.
DM tools
Encounter builder, world builder, loot generation. The tools that turn four hours of prep into twenty minutes.
Translation
The game is built in English and French. Other languages are wide open.
Testing
Break it before the backers do. The public beta is live and the bug reports are welcome.
