GET INVOLVED IN THIS WOMEN-LED EVENT FOR IWD!
A new women-led games event is being lined up for International Women’s Day.
It’s the brainchild of Charmaine Duff and Jenny Windom, with the aim of sharing games by women developers on the dedicated website Women-Led Games and link to their platform of choice so that they can gain views and wishlists.
Developers and studios can sign up to have their games featured here: https://forms.gle/siSpEsRcRZ22ZmdL6
