For my very first RPG, I thought I would try a type of game totally unlike TTRPGs: First Person Shooters. Crazy huh? Big thanks to my gf for being supportive, and my job for being boring enough that I think about games I want to create when I should be working. Also thanks to the podcast “Head to Table” for inspiring me to make silly games.
