How Alpha-5 Works
Complete step-by-step guide to setting up and using Alpha-5 with your Foundry VTT server
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 and oneshots
Constant stream of new players from StartPlaying
Manual player creation for each world was time-consuming
Players needed access to their correct world to work on their character sheets
The Solution
Players can check active worlds easily from Discord
Automated player creation for access to game worlds
Smart world switching when worlds are unpopulated
