"Women are reshaping the gaming landscape.Move over fighting, fast cars, and world domination...Time to make (head) space for self-care and meditation." by Kate Spicer for Harrod's Magazine
Meet our advisor, Mike Wilson, co-founder of Devolver Digital*
Why he's involved: “The timing is right. Soundself signals the beginning of a whole new era in independent game development. People are ready to become more intentional about the content they consume, and more and more people are focused on wellness and inner peace. SoundSelf is a safe, tech-driven alternative for meditation and inner space exploration; an exhilarating journey into altered states of consciousness, guided by your own voice. With SoundSelf, we are seeing the emergence of a new genre that points to a more heartfelt vista of what games can do for their players.”
Mike calls for developers to be intentional about what they create.
