	== First event topic: "Anyone can make a game" ==		== First event topic: "Anyone can make a game" ==

	~~=== Possible~~ tools ~~===~~		In the first event, I would give an overview of the possible tools that people can use to make games (Such as Twine, puzzlescript, Unity, paper or custom electronics)
	~~==== Tools~~ that ~~are great for~~ people ~~starting with game development without technical skills ====~~
	~~Twine~~
	~~Puzzlescript~~
	~~Paper games~~
	~~Screenless electronic~~ games (~~Makey Makey~~)
	~~==== Technical tools that I've used: ====~~
	~~Unity~~
	~~CraftyJS~~
	~~===== Non-technical tools that I haven't used but have heard good things about: ====~~
	~~Game Maker~~
	~~Adventure Game Studio~~
	~~Construct 2~~
	~~RPGMaker~~
	~~Street games~~

	~~=== Pick~~ a ~~tool that you want to use, but if its Unity~~, you should ~~start installing it now! (Takes 30 minutes?) ===~~		I would then discuss the challenges and benefits as making a game as an individual, why you should make your first game by yourself, and give examples of great games that were made by individuals in a small amount of time.

	~~=== Making games as an individual ===~~		Then, I'd make time for anyone to make microtalks if they wanted to.
	~~==== What individuals do better than large groups and what is challenging~~ for ~~an individual. ====~~
	~~==== Why you should~~ make ~~games as an individual at first. ====~~
	~~==== Examples of games made by single people in a short amount of time, using the tools discussed, but are still awesome~~. ~~====~~
	~~Twine:~~
	~~You deserve a custom luxury Sauna~~

	~~Puzzlescript:~~		Then, I'd give people around an hour and a half to make a game. I would try to encourage people to make something that can be finished in that hour in a half.

	~~Paper games:~~		== Games I've made ==
	~~Monsterhearts??~~

	~~Screenless electronic~~ games:		http://transfixedgames.tumblr.com/games
	~~Anna's nipple grabby game?~~
