About this episode

Breeze Grigas discusses the mission and impact of BostonFIG in supporting independent game developers.

Breeze Grigas joins us on the Submarine!! BostonFIG is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that celebrates independent game development in New England, across the United States, and around the globe. Our goal is to create an inclusive environment for everybody who enjoys and appreciates games in any shape or form. The organization seeks to support and showcase the efforts of independent game developers, as well as to nurture young aspiring game creators from diverse backgrounds. BostonFIG is run by a volunteer team of people who truly love supporting indie game creation. We’ve been in operation for a decade, and we are deeply committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion as an essential part of our mission to foster the next generation of game creators. Submissions close June 1st with June 12th being the Late Submissions deadline!
