We've been lucky to connect with so many great people and groups, but we don't see a future here and would like to focus on growing new spaces that are safer for everyone.

We know there's no perfect alternative but no point sitting in a burning house.

In 2020 I wrote an essay for vol 2 of @APWOTmag & examined colonialism in game design & storytelling.
For the essay I spoke to the brilliant & inspiring Meagan Byrne, who was making Hill Agency.
Hill Agency, an Indigenous cybernoir, is out now & I can't wait to play it 🎉

[Karla Monterroso @karlitaliliana]

The thing about living in a capitalist society is folks who know how to commodify the work of others start to have a value. The problem ends up being that those folks WAY overvalue their contribution and have made themselves gatekeepers to what has worth. That’s not their skill.

Oh hey!
We're on the 💙⛅️ now if you want to find us there!
