The Indie Houses Steam Event Is Here, Supporting Girls Make Games

The Indie Houses, a collection of seven indie publishers around the world working together to make industry knowledge more accessible and support the wider indie gaming community, today kicks off its second-ever digital event, this time hosted on Steam in partnership with Girls Make Games to support the Girls Make Games Scholarship Fund (GMGSF).

Running from May 25-31, The Indie Houses Steam Event is a weeklong celebration of women in gaming, highlighting over 60 great games featuring women-led development teams and/or female protagonists. The event page will include demos and discounts from a selection of titles, as well as a section dedicated to Girls Make Games, the program’s work, and games girls have created through it.

The Indie Houses Steam Event will also raise money and awareness for the Girls Make Games Scholarship Fund. A portion of the proceeds earned by each publisher during the event will be donated to the GMGSF, which combines professional development and financial support to ensure underrepresented students have the opportunity to access STEAM programs at an early age.

Since 2014, Girls Make Games has created a space for girls and non-binary students to explore and learn about the world of video games through summer camps, workshops and more. To date, over 23,000 girls in nearly 150 cities across 20 countries have participated in its programs. To learn more, visit https://www.gmgsf.org.
