10 Ava Islam

We reached 10 episodes! And for such a special occasion we have a very special guest! Ava Islam, creator of Errant RPG gets weird with us!

Ava Islam is a very resourceful creator, from a mixed background and a lot of drive. She created the fabulous Errant RPG, a rules lite procedure heavy fantasy RPG that drinks both from the original well of fantasy gaming, and from the myriad of contemporary thought on the same topic! It feels at the same time very familiar and classic, but also very unique, new, and well thought of.

On thing that fascinates me about Ava's work is how she has no qualms about taking what works from something and ignoring what not and then welding it to this whole tapestry of her work.

In the chat we talked about how her experiences in life and with other games, horror movies, how her own issues and concerns helped guide her design choices.

It's a very good episode with many insightful and learnable moments from a great designer that knows how to take what is good out there and make it work!

So get weird with Ava Islam!
