Jason Morningstar is perhaps the iconic Indie RPG Game Designer in my mind. He is the legendary creator of Fiasco, one of my favorite games of all time, which continues to inspire me to this very day. He also created many other masterpieces like Night Witches, Durance, Skeletons and many others. He is also an educator, and, more importantly, he is generous, kind, and supportive with other in our community.
This chat was only supposed to last for 1 hour but we managed to stretch it to a little over 1 hours and a half and I with we could have gone for another 2 hours, but I had to go. Good news is Jason enjoyed the chat and is willing to come back!
We talked about process, art, creativity, curiosity, the constant impulse to find novelty, the search of the weirdness in the mundane. We talked about other games, creators, and art that inspires us. Jason also shared lots of stories and pieces of wisdom we can all learn from, which I am always seeking.
This is one of my favorite episodes. I am a big fan of Jason's work. It was an honor to talk to him about it. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did so...
Let's get weird with Jason Morningstar!
