Jennifer Hale once told me Canadians need to champion ourselves more. I wholeheartedly agree. Over the past few months, I reached out to dozens of Canadian devs to learn their favourite Canadian games. Their varied responses offer a wonderful spotlight on some of the incredible talent we have here.🍁

These are must-play Canadian games, according to Canadian devs
As Canadians, we don't champion ourselves enough, so we asked dozens of game developers to do just that.

From developers to esports stars to visionaries, Black excellence exists at every gaming level, so you have no excuse not to show support.

Celebrate Juneteenth by Supporting These Brilliant Black Game Developers
Back in 2020, dominated by the racial strife of the George Floyd murder, my contribution to that conversation, here in our nerdy little corner of the internet, argued why video games owe Black players more than just talk. The video game industry’s issues surrounding race and representation are too deep to address with a handful of diplomatic tweets. We’re now saying out loud problems that existed unspoken for years. But we should also propose solutions.
