Amid ongoing protests across the U. S. sparked by the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police, protests that are being met with police violence, game developers around the game industry are taking to social media to show support for the Black Lives Matter movement and black and brown communities.
While most of these statements are polite affirmations of solidarity, some studios have made clear notable efforts to support black and brown folks both in games and at large.
Developer and publisher Kitfox Games, for example, published a statement of support on Twitter that also included proof of charitable donations and a small list of resources for people looking to support relevant causes. Publisher PopAgenda also published proof of a charitable donation to the Black Lives Matter Global Network, and offered to directly connect with black and aspiring game devs to provide additional support.
