John Battle, aka Batts is the designer of the RPG My body is a cage. In the game, there are two worlds, the one you live in during the daytime, very much like the one we live in ourselves, and the one you dream of. When you dream, you go exploring dungeons, you fight monsters, you collect treasures, you try to make a better life for yourself.

In this episode, we talk about the inescapable duality of life, D6 dice pools, mecha games, movies, screenwriting, game design, and much more.

Batts is running a Kickstarter campaign for My body is a cage Extended Edition, a hardcover book, that features tons of brilliant collaborators and artists. The project graphic design and game design are awesome, the Kickstarter is in its last week, be sure to check it here:
