    Also: fellow OC Game Devs, consider showing up to the GWU OC meeting tonight even if you're not ready to start a campaign at your workplace. Solidarity is about building social networks of care outside of work, not just about union campaigns! Showing up is a huge step!

    Dude, unions are a *good* thing, not like a rash a company gets for not showering properly. Unionizing is not punishment for companies, it is self-defence for workers.

    If your game or project of any sort was made possible with the help of Kickstarter, please take solidarity photos and share them with the union!! They need your love! 💙

    We're so grateful for the solidarity from creators, backers, and our broader community. Join us + post a picture, fire off a tweet, send a carrier pigeon. However you say it, say it loud: Kickstarter's senior leadership must grant us voluntary recognition.

    Every worker's contribution matters to the success of a project, and every worker deserves their name in the credits. Punitive credits policies are common in the games industry, but as our own says, it doesn't have to be that way.
