MEET THE TEAM
(We're new)
OUR MISSION
We're really tired of the typical corporate power structures. We're piecing together a horizontal network of independent creatives to encourage an engaging and collaborative environment for publishing games, books & art of all mediums while sharing the profits (and losses) with each other in ways the big publishers would never.
No schedules. No managers. No bigots. No nazis.
WE'RE CARBON NEGATIVE
Everything we create, makes as few emissions as possible and we offset twice the lifetime of emissions produced for each product on our site. Our packaging only includes recycled or compostable materials. We release an annual carbon footprint report at the end of the year. While there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, we do hope to mitigate that as much as possible.
WE BELIEVE IN RADICAL TRANSPARENCY
It might be too much information. We will try not to make things sound overly complicated or confusing. But we believe everything should be out in the open. That's why we post our numbers annually at the end of the year. It's why we tell you on every product page the carbon created to produce each item. We have an open door policy. Just knock when you come in.
WE ARE ANTI AI ART & NFTs
Capitalism is phenomenal at destroying the human spirit. People will tell you that it's efficient and innovative, but mostly it's derivative and excessively wasteful and destructive. And we just don't need more of that. Humans under capitalism need reliable sources of income & deserve to own their creative footprints. AI art generators TAKE great art made by people and throw up cheap imitations. People use this to make profit without GIVING back to the original artists. While we're all for lowering the barriers of entry to creativity, stealing opportunity from hard working people is many steps too far. NFTs are in a similar boat for us. The way digital items function make it a silly endeavor to buy into NFTs, let alone it's melting our planet faster than we'd like. We aren't fans of these things, they'll never be a part of our projects.
