Hey all. I've spent the bulk of 2025 fiddling with Table Slayer, a virtual table top specific to in person play with a television. Although there are plenty of options for playing games like Dungeons and Dragons online, there wasn't much tailored to running a game with friends at a table.

The source is open[0], and my stack is currently SQLite, Sveltekit, and Fly. I use Cloudflare for my media, and workers that handle the Partykit real-time syncing (which additionally uses YJS for conflict resolution and syncing).

I have a few dozen paying users at this point, but mostly this is a labor of love that scratches a specific itch I've had myself. Right now I'm working on touch screen controls to support some large-format touchscreens I'm trying to source.
