One of the things we want to do on this podcast is examine what it’s like to make games outside the European and American hotbeds of the industry. I was very excited to catch up with some board game designers from Malaysia during my last trip home and find out what it’s like for them. Big thanks to all of the designers who stopped for a chat, and to All Aboard Community Gaming Center for organizing KotakCon Mini to support the budding Malaysian industry.
