And another star in our midst! It's brilliant to see our Community Manager Leif Bayliss being recognised by Safe In Our World as a Devcember Industry Stars within their Supportive Voices category for all their hard work advocating for our community ⭐ “Leif is a champion for community staff being involved within game development from the start, which has proved hugely beneficial to Junkfish as a studio & the community of fans. Due to these efforts, communication between departments is also constantly improving. Leif regularly creates social media & community reports that are accessible to everyone within the company. Creating accessible documentation is another way in which Leif champions accessibility & inclusivity for all within the games industry.” Congratulations Leif 💚

It's amazing to see our very own Gareth Miller get recognition as an Industry Star for all the incredible work he does to help make Junkfish a safe, inclusive place for all ⭐ “Trying to describe why Gareth truly deserves this recognition could take hours. Gareth has been in the industry for just under 10 years now and has continually lifted people up quietly in the background. Not one for social media he doesn’t do things to be seen, but is a huge advocate for each and every employee of Junkfish.” Congratulations! 💖
Sleigh, devs! 🤩 Another round of Industry Stars have arrived, and they are shining bright. 🌠 Here are four stunning game-changers in DEI! We'll be celebrating 24 nominees this #Devcember, highlighting acts of kindness and positive influencers within the games industry. ⭐ Adam Clewes-Boyne ⭐ Emma Gomersall ⭐ Cinzia Musio ⭐ Gareth Miller Read more about our Industry Stars! 👇 https://lnkd.in/eMSywMHe

One of our favourite things about Bootleg Steamer is the music: a small but perfectly curated 1920s bootlegging soundtrack. And it seems we're not the only ones! Due to popular demand, you can now enjoy the Bootleg Steamer OST on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/et8yfs8P

Today, a huge chapter of our story has come to an end. Monstrum 2, our asymmetric survival horror game set on an ever-changing sea labyrinth, has now been taken offline. The team worked extremely hard to bring Sparrowlock (and it's monstrosities) to life, and we're still so proud of all the passion and love that was poured into the development of this game. It's a sad day, but the future is looking bright. On to our next chapter... ☀️💖
