Show Notes

Description

James interviews game designer and author IE Horton about his process in worldbuilding for his new old book ‘Deity Principle’.

IE Horton stresses the importance of putting the work into your worlds but also that worldbuilding is a labor love that you must put yourself into.  We explore his method of constructing worlds through use of conflict, taking competing ideas and smashing them together or building on ideal utopian concepts by adding selfish people into them.  Also, space toilets.

So, sit back, give it a listen and be inspired.
