Weird Games and Weirder People

Alex Kobyashi is a passionate creator who seems to can't stop making games. He is the creator of The Black Sword Hack, Rats in the Walls, Extinction, Cursed!, and many other great games!

In this chat we talked about the many great things about being a full time game designer, and the many and things about being a full time game designer. Alex talks a lot about "being lazy" despite his impressive production, and how he values structure and routine to help him work.

We talk a lot about process, routines, his fascination with history and reality as a source of inspiration that is stronger and weirder than fiction. We also chatted about not taking notes, about the influences of the Soviet Union on his life and country, and a lot other weird and wonderful topics!

So listen up, and get weird with us!
