Digital Diversity is about spotlighting the work of queer game devs that don't get attention from mainstream media, I've been running the project since 2018 and I like to think it's made a difference.

Sharing your stories, and hearing your experiences firsthand has always been the goal. Especially in a world that undervalues queer rep of every kind.

The queer stories we see in games bring validation & affirmation to many, they deserve to be seen 💜

If you're queer & you have a game to share, be they queer in theme or otherwise fill in the form below to express your interest in taking part:

Game submission form

I'm planning to start things up in the new year, with regular streams and interviews. So please step up and help me share your stories.

Heck yeah, can't wait to see what you send in

Hihi! Quick question, my game does have a demo but its fairly old and a lot of work has been done since then, but i dont know if i would consider it polished enough to put out a new demo yet. I would still like to submit, so is it ok if the tangible demo doesnt really show off the current state of the game?

Kaiju, Making Monsters @enbykaiju12/22/2023, 11:04 PM

Totally up to you. There's no rush here. I've been running the project since 2018 and featured games that were early demos all the way to finished titles & sequels. So if you feel like you want to add it now, go ahead, or just bookmark this and send it in when you're ready. Any games I do feature I'll be contacting the creators in advance to let them know I will be in case there's any recent updates to do. So I'll leave it up to you to decide when your game feels right for the moment 😊

Thanks a bunch!

Is it okay if the game itself doesn't have much in the way of queer themes? I have an abstract puzzle/precision platformer that I'm hoping to get a beta release of in mid-january.

Kaiju, Making Monsters @enbykaiju12/23/2023, 12:24 AM

Totally fine, I've made it clear in the form, for those that get that far, but the game doesn't have to have queer themes or deal with queer issues specifically (it's nice if it does, but that's no deal breaker), Digital Diversity is all about giving queer developers the chance to be seen & heard. It's all about the marginalised voices

And don't worry about rushing yourself, the form isn't going anywhere and I'm always keen to see things added over the year.
