We cost zero dollars to join, plus vet anyone who applys to make sure all our members actively work in the games industry!
We need more developer-centered industry third spaces that don't cost an arm and a leg to get to or participate in.
If you run one or know one, now's a great time to bring attention to it.

What is an overlooked indie PC game from the last 5 years that deserved more recognition?
Bonus points if you can tag the developer too.
Please share this post, there's a reason I'm asking that could hopefully benefit the devs specifically.

This is a rough week (in a rough year in a rough decade) for the game industry.
Be extra kind and supportive to those that have lost their jobs, whether it's sharing other role openings or just being a friend they can talk to.
We'll fast track applications to the GIG this week.

I present to you my new release! AMORE-De-Lic is an album about obscure Japanese video games that deserve some love.
It is a Punk album, because the most punk thing I could ever do is sing about the stuff I love!
