I'm Craig. I advocate for game developers in Alberta, Canada. It's been my hobby for quite some time. I created the Calgary Game Developers meetup group in 2013, co-founded the Calgary Game Developers NPO in 2015, ran Global Game Jam Calgary from 2016 to 2020 and created this project, Alberta Makes Games, in 2018. Thanks for checking out local games!
