Girls Who Code Girls
We’re ready to code the future of female video game characters, together. Introducing Girls Who Code Girls, a gaming experience that empowers YOU to code characters that are true to your experience and more reflective of the diversity of your community.
Here’s the hard truth about gaming today:
Nearly half (46%) of all gamers are women, but female characters are still hypersexualized and have unrealistic body types.
Only 24% of game developers are women — which probably explains why female characters are designed to save the world from a zombie apocalypse while wearing a crop top.
According to a recent survey, 77% of women deal with some form of unwanted behavior while gaming and almost 60% of women hide their gender while gaming.
Girls Who Code Girls aims to change this by allowing you to create a character and customize its body type, skin tone, facial features, hair styles, outfit details and accessories, personality and identity details through the power of coding.
What are you waiting for? Visit girlswhocodegirls.com, code your own character, then share your creations on our online gallery and social media! Make sure to tag us @GirlsWhoCode, and we’ll amplify your creations to our whole community.
