Why Alpha-5?
Created by a Game Master who faced the real challenges of managing multiple worlds and players.
Built by GMs, for GMs
"As a GM on StartPlaying, I constantly face the challenge of managing many worlds and welcoming new players. Manually adding each player to worlds and ensuring the correct world is active when they want to work on character sheets became a time-consuming hassle that took away from actual game preparation."
Alpha-5 was born from these real frustrations and designed to solve actual problems that Game Masters face when running multiple campaigns and oneshots with rotating player groups. It's the tool I wish I had when I started running games for multiple groups.
The Challenge
Multiple active worlds to manage across different campaigns
Constant stream of new players from StartPlaying
Manual player creation for each world was time-consuming
Players couldn't easily check which world was active
The Solution
Players can check active worlds instantly via Discord
Automated player creation for world access (premium)
Smart world switching when worlds are unpopulated (professional)
Seamless Discord-to-Foundry workflow management
