One more time, with feeling.🕹️✨ I'm curating a Canadian Game Studies starter pack. Ping me if you know anyone who should be in here (including yourself)! I'm very inclusive in my definitions of "Canadian," "games," and "studies."

Achievement unlocked! ❤️ my games class and my games students; I only make them cry for really good reasons.
Student assignment text: “It also must be acknowledged that what I assume must have been Professor Braithwaite’s goal, to make me cry several times playing a video game, was well and truly achieved. In fact I think my first experiences of playing both this and Unpacking will likely stick with me for a long time as examples of why games are more than just ‘silly past times’, but instead outlets for a wide arrange of emotions that tell some of the most incredible stories.”
