Games, zines, books, and other
It’s been a harrowing year for the LGBTQ+ community, not just in the United States, but across the world. It’s been a record year for anti-LGBTQ+ legislation, which is immensely depressing.
So, for this very important Pride Month, the itch.io Queer Games Bundle returns with the goal of providing some much-needed funds to LGBTQ+ creators who would often be otherwise overlooked. These are people who just want to make or supplement a living making games, art, and other content, and the bundle gives them some money to do just that.
The Queer Games Bundle describes itself as “A bundle of over 450 games, software, and zines from nearly 300 queer artists across itch.io.” A glance over its immense contents shows everything from more mainstream titles like Raptor Boyfriend: A High School Romance to emotionally charged art games like He Fucked the Girl Out of Me.
The hosts of the bundle are suggesting a $60 all-in price tag, but you can pay what you want so long as it’s over $10. Proceeds go to developers who opted-in to get some of the funding.
Note that there is a wide range of topics covered in these games, books, zines, and tabletops, including some decidedly 18+ things. While wading into uncomfortable territory can nurture empathy and an understanding in your fellow humans, your priority should always be to be kind to yourself, so watch what you load up.
So, if you’d like a massive buffet of delicious queer art content to dig into or would just like to support the community of queer creators, take a look at the Queer Games Bundle over on itch.io. You can find the $60 version here, while the pay-what-you-want bundle is over here.
