You Can Make A Game - And You Should!

TTRPG and larp designer Jason Morningstar is here to get you excited about making your own roleplaying games, and to answer the most vexing of questions. Why is making a roleplaying game both ridiculously easy and extremely difficult? What do you do with an idea that excites you and won't let go? Is originality valuable? How do I know what my goals are, and what do I do if my game doesn't like those goals? Join Jason for a casual talk about making games, intended to get you excited about making your own!
