Normally, I don't like new year's resolutions that much - they seem to be a way to apply unwanted pressures to yourself by making unreasonable expectations of change - but this time I had a good one, and it is the time of the year, so here goes.
At some point during the next year I want to play a game of Ribbon Drive with a superstar line-up: preferably three or more of the following friends: Vellu, VilleA, JuhaH and Kahuna.
Ribbon Drive is an indie RPG where you play a road trip. The main mechanic of the game is based on mix cd's each player makes and brings for the game. You choose a destination and the issue the characters try to solve during the trip.
The game is said to last for an extended session; given that the superstar group of people I desire to play it with a short weekend somewhere could possibly be the most feasible option.
So why would these guys be my dream team for Ribbon Drive? I think that each of them has very good taste in music. What is more I think their individual tastes would compliment each other very well. They could bring the awesome cd's to make up an awesome soundtrack for the game. My main contribution to the game would be snacks and practical arrangements, i guess ;) . I kid, I kid, I think I could make a kick-ass mix cd of my own too. And I think I (and everyone else too) would be open and good with feeling and interpreting the mood of the songs everyone else brings.
So, dear friends, would you be interested? If you are, I'll start making the arrangements. That'll have to wait until March, though, because I will have something else to do in February, I think.
Here are some links on Ribbon Drive: description in Arkkikivi (In Finnish) and the author's page on the game.
Note to everyone: So it's my new year's resolution to get to play with this superstar line-up at least once in the next year, but I'm also open to other opportunities to get to play Ribbon Drive with other interested people as well.
