#TWOPERCENT “Women founders only receive 2% of venture capital funding.” WINGS believes the games of tomorrow will be made by women and marginalized gender developers. We need better funding, awareness, and data. Read our blog & report here👉 bit.ly/3PxGuu2

I love my job - AND that I can work from home 💕 One week post major surgery I was able to get back at work ( Normally it’s takes 2-6 weeks) and spend my time on lots of interesting task. Like Women’s Day Steam Sale in March - SO many good games submitted.

Sorry We're Closed is a queer, nostalgic single-player title with rich lore, deep characters, and multiple endings 💘 Welcome to a world of angels and demons. Let's see if you survive. Sorry We're Closed on Steam: bit.ly/SWCSteam More storefronts: linktr.ee/sorrywe.recl...

🌈Neon survival horror title 😈Sorry We're Closed by @alamodegames.bsky.social is OUT NOW on PC! A 💘love-seeking demon has cursed Michelle to her final days. Traverse liminal spaces through fixed-camera angles, toggle your 👁️Third Eye, and wield your Hellhound pistol to redefine fate.

Bundling up to go on a wintry stroll isn't so bad when you know there's a warm burrow waiting for you.

So much more to say 😅 When women are paid 23% less than men in leadership positions (in EU) do we also expect their games to cost 23% less to make?

How I feel after my surgery and 50 centimeters of stitches.

So would a uterus braking be considered abortion? Even in democracy women and gender minorities will never be save. We will always be at risk loosing our rights. I’m devastated.

Almost two years (in December) since I had an emergency c-section in week 28, because my uterus broke. Today I’m finally having my last surgery to fix the damages. Creating humans comes with a lot of risk. I wish it would be more safe. I wish our rights and health would be protected ❤️‍🩹
