welcome to another episode of joysticks!

I got to sit down with a wonderful friend of mine, Tyler Crumrine, and talk about what it means when your players are "onto something."

You probably know Tyler from his map-labeling RPG Beak, Feather, & Bone.

We talked about the Kleenex of RPGs (DND), RPG accessibility, and the liberatory future of game design (along with everything else, I could talk to Tyler for 100 hours).

I got to sit down with Dr. Jason Cox, a professor whose work is about LARP and education! You may know his games-- Five Hundred Year Old Vampire, Cash and Crumbs, Mantle in the Museum (with Dr. Lillian Lewis) and What to do about Michael?

The was so much genuine joy and nuance in this conversation! LARP is amazing!

In this episode of joysticks! I had the privilege of talking to AnnaMaria Jackson Phelps about Violet Daisy games, about being a person breaking into making games, and also about making connections with and through games. I really enjoyed this conversation because I love talking about connection, and also because there was such a strong sense of community from games in AnnaMaria's words - these pockets of connection are the thing that sustain us in difficult times.
