A Co-Op studio and collective of BIPOC game creators focused on the creation and curation of unique interactive experiences revolving around culture. Our growing collective of artists, designers, programmers, music creators, producers, and more skilled creators can help you take your creative work to the next level. Let's collaborate to create "what's next" in interactive experiences.
We run a game jam series called "Culture Bytes". Each jam features a theme challenge relevant to members of our connected diasporas, an area not often featured in game jam and games in general See games from jams below.
