RPGLMS

Our flagship product, and the fullest expression of everything below: a learning management system where a course is a campaign, a module is a path, and an assessment is an investigation. AI-assisted authoring lets one instructor produce a term of narrative curriculum, and the game layer carries the pedagogy rather than wrapping a reward shell around it. It ships on web, iOS and Android.

Next Level Learning

Surrealdente builds gamified, AI-integrated learning applications. RPGLMS is our product: a learning management system where a course is a campaign, a module is a path, and an assessment is an investigation. The company is founder-led, and the design comes out of published education research.

Gamified learning systems

Avatars, progression, parties, and quest structure built as the pedagogy itself. Character customization and animation run on Rive, so a learner can see their own progression.

AI-integrated content pipelines

Assessment and narrative generation that stays inside a curriculum map: standards-aligned quiz and reading generation, adaptive difficulty, and grading of open responses. A teacher reviews and revises everything the model drafts.

Learning architecture

Campaign and path structure, gated progression, content nodes, multiple assessment types, and analytics an instructor can act on.

Cross-platform engineering

Flutter and web front ends, Serverpod back ends, and one design system shared by both. RPGLMS ships on this stack: the same design language behind the apps, the marketing site, and the docs.

Our flagship: RPGLMSFounder & research

RPGLMS

RPGLMS is our own product and the fullest expression of that work: a learning management system where a course is a campaign, a module is a path, and an assessment is an investigation the learner reports back on. AI-assisted authoring lets one instructor produce a term of narrative curriculum; the game layer is the pedagogy, not a reward shell around it.

It ships on Flutter and Serverpod, with a shared design system that keeps the app, the marketing site, and this one visually identical — the same seven-shade palette and component library render all three.

Dr. Dillon Augustus Simmons

Founder

Ed.D. in Curriculum and Instruction, emphasis in Online Learning — Kansas State University

Dillon researches gamified intervention design, K-12 online learning, and STEM learning experiences, including a randomized controlled trial of a gamified prevention program. He built RPGLMS on that work: the cohort structure, the investigation-and-report assessment loop, and the AI-assisted authoring that lets one teacher produce a term of curriculum. He writes the Flutter app, the Serverpod backend, and both websites.
