HAZMAT DIY 1

HAZARDOUS Conversations Itch.io Game Jam Part 1

And conversations for humanity…

We made a game about talking about hard stuff. We know a lot of people are cooped up with others or by themselves right now, due to COVID-19. We are also probably having a lot of hard conversations about what is going on in the world and what the future is going to look like.

Now IS the time for those hard conversations.

We make games that use conversation as a core game mechanic. We are opening up our tools and processes up to the community so that you can use them to make your own conversation games.

HAZMAT DIY 2

HAZARDOUS Conversations Itch.io Game Jam Part 2

In mid February of this year we released HAZMAT: Hazardous Masculinity. We have been thinking a lot about how to open up our games for others to use and make their own decks either on The Game Crafter or just as print-to-plays for themselves and others.

Yesterday we started reading a book, “Colonized by the Data: The Costs of Connection,” in preparation for today’s Quello Center talk by the same name. One of the last questions during the Q&A session was about academia’s place in resisting Data Colonialism, particularly when increasingly the money funding this work comes from the very entities that are complicit in the system. One of the possibilities mentioned was that researchers/creatives/(people with the ability/privilege to), given their position of power and to varying degrees complicity, should make more tools available for free.
