Our community has been hard at work redecorating some rooms at Spelkollektivet, from the new LEGO room to some office spaces and the audio room. We think it's looking a lot cozier now. 😁

UPDATE: Open invitation for Sponsorships Unfortunately, even after hitting our goal, banks have not been in favor of issuing a loan to buy the building, and so we are looking for companies interested in sponsoring Spelkollektivet to help close the gap. Read More: lnkd.in/p/d4JmntfY

Help save Spelkollektivet | Spelkollektivet
Open invitation for Sponsorships The community behind Spelkollektivet, fellow industry peers, and many kind internet strangers rallied together this past week to help us achieve what we initially feared was an unobtainable goal. We were faced with the news that we needed to purchase the building we call home, or potentially face eviction in the future. But just 70 hours after the campaign began on Friday, we reached our initial goal of 750,000 SEK. Unfortunately, this alone has not been enough to secure the 2,250,000 SEK bank loan we need to purchase the building. And so, we will continue fundraising, not only to help us secure better loan terms, but also to potentially avoid needing a loan altogether. This is where we are opening the door to companies and organizations that believe in what Spelkollektivet does and want to help us keep this community going. By becoming a sponsor, you can directly support a space that has, over the past nine years, been home to hundreds of game developers from all over the world, while also having your company represented as part of Spelkollektivet. Sponsors will have their logo featured on our website, as well as become part of a physical mural at Spelkollektivet, alongside other opportunities that we can arrange on a case-by-case basis. If you or your company would like to help us keep Spelkollektivet going, you can find more information about our sponsorship options here: https://lnkd.in/dv6PgC2G

spel NEEDS to be saved. i've only visited for 4 months total, and even i can tell you this place is a pillar of the indie game scene. i have seen nothing like spel, and i doubt anyone can replicate it. if you are an indie dev, seriously look into it and help if you can.

If you're into game dev, you have to check out this community. After 12 years rusty with game dev they were more than happy to take me in, and I was able to make Faceless Assassin. So I guess that makes it MY community now too. I don't know of another place like it on Earth. And they need your help.

Woke up to Aqua Mundo being tagged 'Billiards', so I guess I'm doing this now 🤷‍♂️ (For context: Steam changed some tags used for games, and the Pool tag has now become the Billiards tag.)
The Steam page for Aqua Mundo, a waterpark tycoon game. One of the game's tags is 'Billiards', because Steam recently changed the name of the 'Pool' tag into this.My water park tycoon game, but now with billiard balls instead of peeps sliding down the slides and rolling around in the pools. The pool has holes.
