Hey! The idea behind the RISE jam is that you work with the Creator Kit on a game, but if you want to narrow it down to some specific features I would say these are the things that stand out with RISE compared to other Creator Kits or System Reference Documents (SRDs):

3 Act structure (1st Act introduces players to their character; 2nd Act that would be basic gameplay where players experience their character; 3rd Act with limited resources and/or attempts to test their characters)
3rd skill in each attribute is game specific
Sparks (I think they really help the characters stand out)

I'm not against a game in a different medium, but in general I am looking for TTRPG games.

Thank you! I appreciate it, I love the structure though. I just have never played a TTRPG really so I don't have ANY background with them. So that's why I really didn't know. I really love how it develops the characters out (your system). If I knew more about the TTRPG stuff I would probably participate though! I always use to want to play D&D and some other TTRPG games but I never had enough friends to play them with. I hope the jam goes good for everyone though and I learned a lot about character & plot development just from reading your PDF!

I can see that not having experience with TTRPGs makes it hard to create something with it. I think you should check out solo games in the physical section here on itch. There are some amazing games in there and many of them free. This could be your first step into TTRPGs to see how this works. Most of them are beginner friendly and guide you through play. It's a great way to gain some experience.

Thanks for your kind words about RISE!
