It claims it will become “the world’s first LGBTQI certified gaming company” with help from The Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Rights.<br>Björn Rudolfsson, CEO and co-founder of Kinda Brave, said in a statement, “Game development is oftentimes characterized by passion. But all too often, this is used as an excuse for unhealthy working conditions and short-term priorities. Kinda Brave wants to change this by investing long-term in smaller, creative, and independent teams, believing that the path to the best games is one of good people being given good continuous support.”<br>In addition to diversity and inclusivity of employees, Kinda Brave wants all players to feel included in its games. Each Kinda Brave-partnered studio will have an Accessibility Champion, who will be in charge of accessibility features for its games. It’s also looking for eco-friendly avenues of game development, through recycling and “mindful choices of suppliers and manufacturers where possible.”<br>IAB PlayFronts 2022<br>Join developers, ad tech partners and leaders from streaming platforms as they demonstrate, live from NYC, the creative opportunities within the gaming and esports landscape.
