- We're part of Game Devs of Color! - 21 September 2023
Greetings, valued employees, We’re really excited to be a part of Game Devs of Color 2023 over the next week! Making games is a dream for so many of us, but it’s also really difficult! It’s fantastic to be a part of an initiative that’s showcasing and amplifying the amazing games created by people of colour around the world.

Seeing amazing games and the creators who looked like us behind them was a really important push that helped us have the confidence to quit our jobs and become game developers full-time. If you’re currently dreaming of creating your own games, I’ll be giving a talk…
