Help Us Rebrand & Power the Next Generation of Game Devs

Fundraising Goal: £10,000

Who we are:

Hi, This is Shereen & Dwayne - we’re the founders of a rising, Disabled-UK led Game development studio that’s rewriting what’s possible in the games industry.

Over the last two years, we’ve built more than a company — we’ve built a mission. We're developing a bold new single-player game for PC & console, creating a creative hub for underrepresented voices, and mentoring the next generation of game makers. We’ve spoken at major industry events like London Games Festival and Develop:Brighton, taken on our first A-level work experience student, and gained recognition through Rare Founders and other national accelerator programmes.
But now, we’ve hit an unexpected roadblock - and we need your help.

The Situation:

We’re in the middle of a legal trademark dispute with a company in Norway - After seeking advice from top IP lawyers in the industry, we made the tough decision to move forward with a full rebrand - while still pushing our game and community work forward. This comes at a cost we hadn’t budgeted for.

And now, we need your help:

• £2,500 - Legal fees & trademark/IP registration for our studio rebrand

• £3,000 - A new development PC & drawing tablet (our current gear is on its last legs)

• £2,500+ - Travel to Slush Helsinki, a global showcase this November. Shereen has a fully funded placement through an accelerator, and now we’re raising funds for Dwayne to join her, so we can pitch to investors and represent our studio as a united front

• £2,000 - A rebrand launch event to celebrate this milestone, showcase our upcoming game, and connect with community, press, and potential partners.

We’ve applied for grants to support staff hires, but that funding won’t arrive in time to help us through this critical window.

Any support we receive beyond our £10,000 goal will go directly into accelerating development on our game. Every extra pound helps bring our vision to life faster - and stronger.

Why We Need You:

Your donation helps us:

• Protect, rebrand and relaunch our studio identity
• Keep development moving on our game
• Show up internationally and bring new opportunities back to our team
• Create more pathways for young creatives who’ve never been given a second chance

We’ve come too far to stop now - and with your help, we won’t have to. By donating, you’re not just helping us rebrand. You’re supporting a mission to make game development more inclusive, more representative, and more creative than ever before.
Thank you for believing in us. Thank you for helping us shape the future of gaming.
