We won the Outstanding Diversity Network Award at the Inclusive Awards! Enormous thanks to the extensive Inclusive Awards panel for choosing Out Making Games over our incredible co-nominees. Thank you to everyone who voted us onto the shortlist prior to that. Thank you to our sponsors nDreams, Rocksteady Studios Ltd, Supermassive Games Ltd, No More Robots and Mojiworks, without whom this team of volunteers wouldn’t be able to do the work we do. And most importantly, thank you to our incredible OMG community, without whom we wouldn’t exist… this one’s for you! Out Making Games exists because there remains a critical need for advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community. A need for the creation of safe social and networking spaces, both online and in person, where the community can be their authentic selves without fear of persecution. OMG also provides studios, publishers, other businesses and wider society, with support and education on how to care for and protect those who identify as LGBTQ+, and helps them make better decisions regarding content in their products, marketing, hiring and much more. Our leadership team are all volunteers with full-time jobs in and around the games industry. From game devs to executive search professionals, our lives are busy and OMG is a lot! And, whilst we do this work because there remains a crucial need for it, it means THE WORLD when our work is recognised, rewarded and celebrated, particularly when it is by a group of professionals who truly understand the importance of diversity, equality, inclusivity and belonging - and are legends themselves! Thank you all again, for selecting Out Making Games as your winner.
