Nice video. As to the question I'm not sure if an rpg campaign would properly reflect all the unique features of donut world. Some kind of novel or smth would do it better imo. But it's a very interesting idea for a setting. Espiecially if the more educated inhabitants were actually aware of the fact that their world is constantly at a brink of destruction and one gravvitional instability could easily collapse it.
if I wanted my players to constantly make arby and the chief jokes sure
would be very interesting scientifically, since you might be able to use it to sling shot things pretty fast through the centre of the taurus

Everyone has steel donut rings that is worth killing for if they're stolen.

How would gravity work on a toroidal planet exactly?
Our dm once ran a world that had a finite north and south edge bit not east/west. The pcs were tasked with circumnavigation. Turns out he just made a mobile strip map on a roll of printer paper and said let's play.

Catastrophically.

The further into the hole you go the less gravity.
But I already play in a Planescape game.

I correct myself.

Halo was a great FPS, but I'm not sure how it would translate to a good adventure RPG

donut is not ring.
And if you want to set an adventure on a ring then its not going to be halo you draw inspiration from. Picture related.
I'm actually running a 5e game set on a ring world.

it's not exactly halo, the day/night cycle and gravity are a touch wackier on a doughnut planet, which could effect acrobatics and jump style rolls, depending on where you are and what system you're running.
the center of the planet would have considerably longer nights, so things like vampires, werewolves, and other vermin would congregate there, and would actively avoid the outer edge of the planet.
the bad guys can be a touch more literal when they claim that they'll "destroy the planet" because of how unstable they are.

Planescape?

Tim Horton's.
First or second final fantasy was set on a donut plane. Sure you might've seen a square, but this square looped on all sides into the opposite side. Just like a toroid would.

Leaf please go; DD is better.

That's true for all FF with a world map.

The thing about Sigil is it's a city inside a donut. And Sigil isn't supposed to make sense at all.
This donut world has some really cool theories behind it and some really varied topographic features.
As crazy and unlikely as a donut world is, hearing all the (meta)science behind one makes it believable enough to make sense.
I like it when my worlds have some form of logic behind them, even if they are high fantasy.
