We just backed two cool Kickstarter projects. Here they are:
GTFO: A Film About Women in Gaming:
A documentary on women in gaming, by Shannon Sun-Higginson who is on the outside of the gaming industry. It will be interesting what she finds. Maybe stories like this unfortuante event at PAX East 2013 by Meagan Marie.
