LIFTOFF!
Minority and Underrepresented Groups Program
MISSION: Create opportunities in the video game industry for BIPOC and underrepresented groups. Using our skills and expertise, we make your game shine on a worldwide stage.
"Having been in the video game industry over 25 years, it's time for our industry to be truly inclusive and start opening doors for those of us who have traditionally not been included in its success. It's time to shine the light on BIPOC and underrepresented groups and celebrate the talent in these groups. Our team is ready to help with that quest" - Kirk Scott // VP Business Development @ RocketRide Games
"We believe that the industry is lacking the proper platforms to enable minorities an equal footing in the gaming industry. We know the individuals who are not only speaking to support those minorities, but actually creating that meaningful platform. We believe this area requires action and RocketRide Games launching LIFTOFF! is the exact platform needed from minority communities looking to get into the industry" - Khalil & Ahmed Abdullah // Co-Founders @ Decoy Games
