What I love about the #greengamedesign website is the use cases demonstrating how different games have approached sustainability. This page on Regeneration & agroecology features @kamaeru.bsky.social wetland regeneration and @balancingmonkeygames.com use of ‘The Three Sisters’ polyculture! #gamedev
