1/3 of the game industry has lost their job in the last two years. Ubisoft closed two more studios today. Everyone is out of work. To that end I'm starting a new bundle to benefit a layoffs hardship fund. Game devs: please consider submitting your PAID games to the bundle, which will launch in July.

Oddly we've got about 3x fewer entries than usual for a bundle of this type so far. Maybe my rules were too stringent, or maybe somehow developer hardship doesn't resonate with other devs!? But I would like to get more games in this bundle if possible!

I would add my game if it was anywhere near ready. So it does resonate at least for me.
