#gamescomasia #ThailandGameShow #elsewhereNFP #workplaceculture #DEI #gamingindustry
Heading to Cologne for #ddc2025 (Aug 17–19)! Talking women’s health in #gamedev, workplace culture, and sharing stories of turning job loss into new beginnings. Staying for #Gamescom too!

Take part in our research: bit.ly/WorkplaceCul... – join the change.

#GamesIndustry #IndieDev #WomwnInGames
Oh my, I am so sorry - only reading this now 😱 The report won’t be published before 2027, and we present the current findings along the way at conferences. But I like the idea of having regular updates - maybe on our website. Will discuss this with the team and get back to you ☺️
Excited to return to 🇩🇪 #devcom & #gamescom after surgery & a quiet start into 2025! This time not behind the scenes, but on stage THREE times 🫣 Sharing insights from elsewhere NFP’s Workplace Culture Study w/ Ashley Blake.

Fear of retaliation is real, and it’s stopping people from reporting misconduct at work. We launched the Global Workplace Culture Study to speak up where others can’t. Please add your voice: bit.ly/WorkplaceCul...

So much for keeping things low-key at this year’s devcom Developer Conference 2025: On stage 3 times to talk workplace culture, reproductive health, and turning setbacks into growth. Cheers to big convos and resilience!

#devcom2025 #DEI #gamesindustry #womeningames #ddc2025 #gamedev #gamescom
Games bring joy. But behind the scenes, workplace culture shapes real lives, for better or worse.

We’re sharing global insights from our workplace culture study at #ddc2025. Let’s make the industry safer, healthier, more human.

#devcom #gamesindustry #WorkplaceCulture
It’s been quiet on my end, but we’re back on the map.
At gamescom latam, we launched our 2-year Global Workplace Culture Study with elsewhereNFP 🌍

Next stop: devcom Developer Conference 🇩🇪 in August and gamescom asia 🇹🇭 in October.

First time in Brazil, first leg of our elsewhere study – and already in love. We’re in São Paulo till May 3, meeting studios, sharing stories, and learning so much. If you’re around, let’s connect. Also: the food? Unreal.

elsewhere has landed in Brazil! We’re in São Paulo until May 3 to kick off the first leg of our Global Workplace Culture Study. Get in touch if you’re around – we’re meeting studios, gathering stories, and soaking in all the vibes.

So excited that @elsewherenfp.bsky.social will be on the ground in São Paulo and presenting findings at @gamescomlatam.bsky.social❣️

Big conversations, bold questions, soft power. May 2nd, 2:35pm, Stage 1.

#gamescomlatam #gamedev #indiedev #workplaceculture #futureofwork
Our Workplace Culture Study is a call to anyone who’s felt unheard at work. We’re at #gamescomlatam April 30 to May 2 and will be presenting first findings – and we’re already in São Paulo next week❣️

Let’s meet. Let’s listen. Let’s co-create. 🤝

Played 40+ indie games - not just for fun (okay, maybe a big little bit for fun, too), but as a juror for the Indie Award at Baltic Games Fest. And let me tell you: Some real bangers just dropped or are coming soon❣️

Heyo GDC peeps, just wanted to flag that there are people going around taking photos of only female presenting people. This is mega suspicious, please say no if they approach you!
In Germany we say „feministischer Kampftag“ and I think that’s beautiful! It reminds us that March 8 isn’t only #internationalWomensDay but there’s still a long way to go (and to fight) for absolute equal opportunities for all genders 💜 #feministischerKampftag #womeningames #feminism #gamesindustry
Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all women (trans and cis), femme-identifying, and non-binary friends! We 🫶 you, we see you, and we're going to keep doing all we can to get more of you in this industry successfully 💪

Together, we can get that number higher.
‼️🤯 Still shocking: Women in gaming earn 26% less than men. Some top studios? Over 30% pay gap! This needs to change. Thanks, elsewhereNFP, for raising awareness. Fair pay = stronger teams. Let’s push for transparency!

🚨 Equal Pay Day Reminder: Women in games still earn 26% less than men. Some top studios report gaps over 30% - it’s time for real change. Fair pay = better games, stronger teams. Let’s push for transparency.

#GDC is around the corner! After major ankle surgery couple months ago I’m still recovering and training hard - not just mentally, but physically - to be ready for this event. How accessible are industry events for you? Let’s talk about #AccessibilityInGaming & #InclusiveEvents!

#GamesIndustry #DEI
📱 Mobile gaming is booming, but keeping players is tough. Shrinking attention spans & ads every 30s drive them away. Studios adapt with smoother onboarding & community-driven features.

What’s the smartest retention strategy you’ve seen? 👀

#MobileGames #GameDev #IndieDev #UserRetention #LiveOps
This hits extra hard especially after it just made news that #WarnerBros is shutting down 3 studios and canceling its planned Wonder Woman Game 😢

Waking up this morning in my hometown #Nuremberg to see the #Quelleturm reclaimed as a symbol of freedom and resistance moved me to tears. As a woman, I’m terrified of tomorrow’s #election. But I’m grateful for the people fighting back. Thank you, @disrupt-now.bsky.social
