Ahoy, Mateys!

We are proud to announce that Munity is OFFICIALLY a worker Co-Op!

In a time when workers are being exploited and laid off, we are making a stand and putting ourselves, and all future worker-owners, first.

Together, we're stronger! Together, we will change the industry!

An image of 4 of the original 5 co-founders of Munity around the Shootlanzer mini arcade cabinet, Ladybug Mk. 1. Above is a caption that reads "Munity is officially a worker co-op!" White and gray confetti is falling around the edges. Mew, Munity's pirate cat mascot, is on the left and a chibi version of Leona, the main character of Shootlanzer, appears on the right.

It's been a little bit since the last one, but we've got your June 2025 Update over on our Patreon~!

We've been hard at work making an interesting shift in Shootlanzer's development that may or may not entail learning how to make a full-sized arcade cabinet. 👀

Just because you aren't making money off of your dream yet doesn't mean you're not already living it.

It just hit me that the @munitygames.bsky.social crew and I are really doing what we set out to do.

Please look forward to some awesome updates on Shootlanzer soon!!!!

Munity @munitygames.bsky.social · Apr 8

Progress isn’t always obvious. You might feel stuck, but every project, every mistake, and every lesson are making you better. Growth happens in the background.
