Game dev Brook Burgh her thoughts on game development while playing He F****d the Girl Out of Me (sorry for the asterisks). Brook is an autistic trans girl making games in PICO-8. Over the course of 25 games across 5 years, Brook has grown her skills to where she now has a solid streak of great and fun creations, specializing in weird and frantic-style games.
Her accomplishments include a first place and top-5 finish in the CoolMath Game jam two years in a row, first place at University of Georgia’s Capturing Science contest, as well as the creation of Breadwinner VR, a frantic and hilarious game.
Brook also created Neuro Diversion, her one-person game studio that sells expanded versions of game jam games and donate portions of the revenue to charities relevant to the game!
