Wow, November took a lot out of the Hand Eye Society team. Why, you may ask? Because we had the biggest, best-ist Wordplay Festival we’ve ever had! It was so amazing to see so many people come together to play games, watch talks and talk to each other about goals, games and everything in between. We’re so happy we were able to pull this off and make it accessible for folks to tune in from around the world! Thanks again to Hand Eye Society staff, volunteers, members and friends for making this happen! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! We’re so happy with the results and we can’t wait to do more on an online platform!

We would love to welcome everyone to our official Hand Eye Society Discord channel! Join us! Hang out! Chat!

Stay safe and have a wonderful holiday season!

We’re working on a game set in Toronto in 1977 that focuses on the emerging queer and punk scenes in the city. The two main characters are a mixed-race runaway from Northern Ontario who comes to the city to escape abuse and to find community, and a recently promoted black detective who has been tasked with solving a gristly series of murders plaguing the gay community. We’re looking for an experienced BIPOC and/or LGBTQ+ interactive narrative/game designer to help bring the game to life. – Robert Golding

Hey everyone! I hope you’ve all been doing well! Times are hard and there are a lot of things happening out there in the world, but we have to do our best to stay positive and do our best with staying indoors when possible, washing our hands and, well, I think you all know the drill.

There’s not much things going on in Toronto with local events obviously…BUT there are quite a few online events and initiatives going on within the city that you can join to make games, make friends as well as applying for personal funding.

Please forgive the bare bones calendar! I’m sure when things get better we’ll have more events in city venues again!

In the meantime, stay safe and don’t touch your face without washing your hands.

Indiepocalypse is a monthly indie game (physical or digital) anthology that collects together games by developers and pays them! Upon acceptance and in royalties! There are no requirements for entries based on theme, genre, age of game, etc. and I claim no ownership or exclusivity of your work. So submit whatever you want.

Each issue also comes with a short PDF zine with a page for (and made by) each developer. In an attempt cross-pollinate games folks with other artists, each issue will have a cover made by someone outside of, or tangentially related to, the world of games. Below is the first cover. Submit!
