For a year fraught with many challenges, turmoil, & shaken sense of stability, we cannot wait to continue living up to the honor bestowed upon us: bringing impactful programming, funding, & scholarships to devs of color.

Thank you for the kind words, & thank you @indiegameawards.gg for this honor!🏆

The GDQ break channel that @marlowedobbe.com and I made for a jam just got merged! If you're watching #AGDQ this week, keep an eye out for it.

I think it turned out really fun. Donations reduce the HP of the foe, and when defeated, a new one spawns. So stoked to see it in action!

Our last stream of the year is on Thursday! Community members will be playing and live doodling the events of a role playing game, and our supporters get to decide what the theme is. If you want to help, pop on in and make a suggestion!

PS the Year End Showcase was our biggest solo-hosted event since "coming back" from the pandemic with 200+ attendees, and we raised over $2,000 for OHSU Doernbecher! Thanks for being a part of it, it was so fun :)

Had a blast with everyone for our Year End Showcase! Thanks for supporting fellow devs and raising money for the children's hospital 🤩
Next week, we're doing Town Hall and our TTRPG game live on Twitch, Wednesday & Thursday!
