There few events or studios, and without remote roles I may not be in games at all as I can’t leave Cornwall at the moment, nor do I want to, I love it here! ❤️ I’m one of the rare lucky ones to get into this biz, not due to lack of skill or talent of others, and it’s so sad to see them stuck. 4/4

I appreciate organisations like Into Games helping inner city folk to break into the industry, but while I may be biased being from Cornwall, getting into the industry from underfunded rural areas (where many people are working class) is extremely hard. Even with a games uni on my doorstep. 3/4

Another major problem is the availability of jobs and the lengths you need to go to get a job in the UK. It’s still crazy to me that people can be expected to move across the country and away from their loved ones for roles that could be done just as well remotely. It’s all done on PCs anyway! 2/4

I’m only a designer so I don’t know about the technical workings but I am all in favour of the movement. I support the preservation of media and remember in the 00s that a lot of games had community run servers. So it just seems like a great idea to me!

So bizarre. I got on the train, opened blue sky, and this was the first post to pop up! Really nice to meet you and thanks for walking me back ☺️ Safe travels!

That worked thanks so much!

Thank you! Just found out about this event through coworkers and I'd love to go!

Has the code changed? It isn't working for me :(

Glad it wasn’t just me!
