Happy to announce that I'll be attending and presenting my social impact game, Streets of My Town. The conference will take place from March 21-25 in San Francisco, and I'm excited to share my experiences and insights at the Cultivate your Karass session hosted by Mark DeLoura.

Streets of My Town is a community-led initiative that aims to connect people to local support services and programs. Over the past three years we've been working hard to get it to this stage, and I'll be announcing a big update to the platform at GDC23! 📣

I'm looking forward to discussing our progress and sharing some of the challenges we've faced along the way. I'm keen to exchange ideas with anyone who's interested in impactful games.
If you're planning to attend GDC23 and would like to catch up, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm always keen to meet new people, exchange ideas, and explore new collaborations.

A glimpse into co-design in COVID times…
We’re building a Streets of My Town version in collaboration with .for.multicultural.youth and the South Sudanese community in Melbourne.
So happy to be building games with these unique communities. This is what all that hard work in the past two years was for!
