Critical Roll is inspired by a number of things, for one obviously I have to mention the 1983 animated series based on the game of Dungeons and dragon but to my knowledge this series had no basis in reality what so ever unlike my series, I would pitch the show to the common viewer as an animated 4th wall breaking comedy version of game of thrones.
The concept of real people inside a fantasy world is loosely based off the very short run animated series Da Doom Crew where four friends are transported inside of a video game that they have created, they then must adventure through this world and fight evil aliens.
The main inspiration for this series is the fantasy Netflix series Disenchantment and a podcast I regularly listen to called D&D is for Nerds, which is a podcast of comedians playing through DnD campaigns.
The art style im using is loosely based of the character style from the new Legend of Zelda: Links awakening.
