Kirk Scott about his next challenge

Since February of this year, the events we have all experienced have crystalised my thinking. I’m tired. Opening doors for minorities, being inclusive and enabling success for EVERYONE in the indie space will be a priority for me. It brings joy!

I can’t wait to continue this work with all of you. We all have an opportunity to make things better for others and educate while making great games. Stay tuned!

Of course we wish Kirk Scott nothing but the best in his future challenges!
